THAW WAS SANE.
Testimony Shows That At Time Of
Shooting He Appeared Rational.

New York.-Mr. Jerome played on
Tuesday probably the strongest card
he holdS-evidence which came to his
knowledge but few DAYS ago, and
which undoubtedly caused him to
abandon the idea of trying to send
Whites slayer to a madhouse and to
try for a straightout conviction under
the criminal statutes.
The evidence came from Mrs. Stan
ford Whites brother, James Clinch
White, who told remarkably clear,
succinct story of events in the Madi
son Square Garden the night White
was killed and of long conversation
he had with 1haw just before the
shooting
1t seems Thaw sat for some time
with Smith during the fateful first per-
formance of "Mam'selle Champagne"
and discussed with him variety of
topics in manner, Mr.. Smith de
clared, such as any sane man would
talk. Mr.. Smith gave the conversation
in detail, emitting nothing, he as
serted
With the brother-in.law of the man
who was so soon to be victim of his
pistol, Thaw discussed the play, Wall
street, common aCquaintances, plans
for the summer and other things, in
Guiding "buxom brunette" whom
Thaw declared he was anxious to have
Smith meet. Thaw said he and his
wife were going abroad later in the
summer. There was nothing anywhere
in the repeated conversation of Thaw
of intent to inflict bodily harm upon
any one.
Mr.. Smith did say, however. that
Thaw not having a reserved seat,
roamed about the garden and contin-
ually looked in the direction of the
spot where he subsequently Killed
Stanford White
Attorney Delmas. for the defense
bitterly fought the Introduction OF this
testimony for nearly two hours today,
renewing his argument began ygster-
day afternoon. He declared Mr.
Smith was properly a witness Ia CIT.
and should not be allowed to testify
in rebuttal.
Mr.. jerome replied that he had
known only for a few days the real
value of Mr.. Smiths testimony-the
conversations with Thaw and he ap-
pealed to the discretion of the court
to allow the testimony to go in
Justice Fitzgerald held that in the
interest of justice the jury was entitled
to all the facts.
1t was one of the most serious blows
the judge has dealt the defense since
his trial
There was another policeman on the
stand to-day who saw Thaw the night
of the tragedy and who declared the
defendant at that time acted in ra-
tiOnal manner

FEDERATION CASE DELAYED.
Judge Bryan Calls Judge Woods to Try
the Case.

Boise, l1aho.-On the 18th, Charles
II. Meyer. William d. Haywood and
George A. Pettibone appeared in court
at Caldwell in connection with the
charge of numbering former Governor
Frank Steunenberg. There were two
motions to be argued. one for dismissal
of the case, the other for a change
Of venue, but owing to the fact that
the remittitur from the United States
supreme Court in the habeas corpus
Proceedings had not arrived, these ar
guments went over until next Monday.
Judge +. l.. Bryan, elected last fall
to succeed Frank j. Smith, was On the
btnch when court opened. When the
SteunenbCrg case was reached he said
he had gwen careful attention to the
question of his eligibility to sit in
these cases, as he had been an attor-
ney of record for Harry Orchard.
Though it was close point, he felt
is was better under the circumstances
to refrain from acting and would there
fore call in Judge Fremont Wood OF
Boise, judge of the Third district.
There was no objection, and at the
afternoon session Judge Wood was on
the bench. Mr.. Richardson withdrew
the motion filed last spring to cal
new judge.
The defense wished to proceed with
the argument of the two motions, but
the prosecution preferred to await the
arrival of the remittitur. Both were
agreed that it was not absolutely es-
sential, but Mr.. Hawley and Senator
Borah thought it would be in better
form, AMI, as no time would be lost
in any event, they urged that the ar
guments &C over. Senator Rorah eX-
planned that the remittitur had been
mailed from Washington Monday, ac'
cording to his advices.

BLUE RIBBON MEETING
VIII Be Held In Detroit July p to 20
CiuSiVe.

Will Be Held In Detroit July p TO 20 In
elusive.
TO the many thousands who have
been in the habit of making an annual
pilgrimage to Detroit during the last
part of July no news could have been
more welcome than the official an
nouncement that Blue Ribbon week
will be restored at the Crosse Pointe
track, Detroit's magnificent racing
plant. Conditions made the 1906 meet
ing an impossiblity and the loss was
all Detroit's and Michigan's, the Blue
Ribbon meeting having grown to be
regarded as the sporting event pre-em-
inent in the northern states.
Even now a number Of fast harness
horses are at work on the track and in
various parts of the country hundreds
of others are being pointed toward the
rich events that will be decided at
Crosse Pointe July % to 26. OF great
est interest is the $4,000 Merchants
and Manufacturers Stake for green
trotters, the oldest and greatest classic
of the turf. There is no event which
the breeders and trainers so desire to
win as the NJ. X NJ, and while other re-
newals have been uncertain at such an
early period as this, the 1907 race prom
ises To be the banner one Of them all
There are twenty six eligibles and in
this lot a majority have shown the abil-
ity to trot i'm 2:l0 or better, so that with
luck and good weather there is rea-
sOnable chance that the time honored
record for the event (20Sai by Eleata
in 1901 will be relegated to the pages
of turf history.
The splendid list of entries for the
NJ. IL NJ, foretells a wonderful season
of light harness racing. The other
stakes which will be part of the Blue
Ribbon meeting compare favorably
with the main attraction. The famous
Chamber of Commerce for PAGERS has
twenty-one in its list, while there are
sixteen in the Horseman and Spirit of
the Times stake for 2:14 trotters. Then
there will be twelve class races which
will round out the programme for five
days.
Customary excursion rates are eX-
pected on the transportation lines and
Detroit expects to again enjoy the gala
Blue Ribbon week, the brightest spot
i'm the summer outing.
