mouth will sail for London soon IS

/ 1t was said that she would sail this aft
ernoon on the Kaiserin Auguste Victoria
ICf the Hamburg-amcricau Line. but she
didn't There is pretty good ground for
the belief tnat negotiations have been car
ried on by members Of the Thaw family
with agents Of the Hamburg American
Line, for passage al some future date
out Just when it cannot be learned. The
next steamer of the Hamburg American
/ Line is the Moltke, which leaves Hobo

She hadn't Deen in the Tombs over ten
minutes when Mrs. Harry *. Thaw came

I one Of Thaw's brothers. Edward Thaw
did not z, 20 the TOmbs, and it was said
\ that he was looking after the arrange

return % Europe.
Lawyers Deny Friction.
Both Lawyers Hartridge and Gleason,
tof counsel for Thaw, denied that the
/ countess had any intention Of going
back 90 Europe while Thaws trial was
on. A note was sent 10 Thaw asking him
about it. but he declined 90 make any
statement. Then Mr.. Gleason was asked
about reports that Lawyer Dolphin NJ
I Delmas. who was imported from San
/ Francisco for the trial, has announced
/ that unless May Mckenzie stayed away
/ from the trial be would get out Of it,
and that Thaw was receiving a number
Of threatening letters. Mr.. Gleason said.
/ Miss Mckenzie has been very devoted
[ to Mrs Harry Thaw and has proved her
/ self TO be- q devoted friend. She looked
after her during the sumner and was
her companion and is there any reason
why Mrs Thaw should throw her aside
now2 There has been no quarrel among
/ the members Of the family over the pres

story that Mr.. Delmas said at the Yale
| Club that he would get out Of the case

I the courtroom is also untrue. He has
no objection 90 her. Another story that
/ Thaw and his wife have contemplated
divorce proceedings after the trial is also
untrue. Somebody wants sensations and

ceiviug threatening letters. I see all his
mail and / have never seen letter that
/ even indicated a threat
/ Miss Mckenzie Says She viii Stay.
When Miss Mckenzie was asked at the

] II IS true that Miss Mckenzie has been
: subpoenaed by the prosecution, although
I it IS doubtful that she ever viii be called.
/ AS soon as the jury is drawn she Will

subject and he viii ask that IL be done.
Howard Nesbit Mrs. Harry Thaw S
young brother, was at the district at
7 Joruey's Office for short time IN speak

and that she buys her clothes"
