New York. April 1S.-There is 10 be
practically a clean sweep in the lawyers
who have been representing Harry K.
Thaw. Both the members of the ThaB
family and the lawyers who have been
representing him are dissatisfied with the
outcome Of the trial Thaw thinks that
he should have been acquitted.
some OF his relatives are OF the opinion
that tie lawyers who have been actively
engaged in tie ease bunglsd. As a resrl
only one Of the lawyers who have oeen
looking after Thaw's affairs is nov, ,recog-
nised by the Thaws. He is Daniel
O'Reilly
All OF the Tbaw lawyers deny that they
are out Of the case, except o'Reilly. He
says he is still in it. and has been retained
for any proceedings that may develop
One thing is certain. Dolphin II. Deimas,

part in a second trial, should there be
one There viii be q second trial some
time in the fall unless, in the meantime.
ThaW should convince the Tombs physi-
clans and others that he Is insane.
There were many stories to-day as 20
felt. From the prosecution there was
little. District Attorney Jerome went
TO his home at Lakeville Conn, for a
rest until Wednesday. He reiterated his
statement that he will oppose any ap-
piication for bail for Thaw, and he
thinks his grounds for doing so-based
on the standing OF the jury and the
way they reasoned-win convince any
Supreme Court justice that Thaw
should not be released. Until there is
some move made by lawyers repre-
senting Thaw nothing will be done by
Mr.. Jerome.
Thaw Lawyers Reticent.
None of the lawyers who has been
speak king for Thaw would say what he
intended to do. Clifford ". Hartridge
who has been attorney of record, said
it was toe early to talk about an appli-
cation for bail for Thaw. He said he
wes still attorney OF record, but he de-
clned to make any comment on
whether he expected to act in that ca
pacity, On the question of bail. he said
number of things had to be consid-
cred
The lawyers were all too tired to dis
ouss the subject until they had had a
/ rest. II was noticed that Lawyer O'Reilly
did not think it worth while to-day to
pay any attention TO the views of the
other lawyers who have been represent
| ing Thaw. Mr. O'Reilly remarked that
/ he expected that an application for bal
