FINAL ARGUMENT DRAWS
CROWDS At THAW TRIAL
District Attorney Jerome Begins to Tear Down the I'm
passioned Speech of Attorney Oelmas-
Court is Packed With Spectators

In the corridors the scenes were mors
stirring Scores OF disappointed men
and women made an onslaught upon
the police guard in a last effort to pass
the portals, only to be repulsed and
fairly dragged back from the entrance.
Men with imagined influence pleaded
with the officers. cajoled, begged and
threatened, but to no purpose. About
five minutes before the session was be-
gun members OF the Thaw family be-
gan to arrive. The first TO enter the
court room was Josiah Thaw He was
accompanied by his sister the countess
of Yarmouth. Mrs. Carnegie and her
! husband We're the next to arrive. Mrs.
Edward Thaw and Evelyn Thaw fol-
| lowed quickly and the elder Mrs. Thaw
came last. All looked hopeful and
confident. At 1885 o'clock Justice Fitz-
gerald took his seat upon the bench.
the jury was brought in and Harry
X. Thaw was called to the bar. Dis
trict Attorney Jerome then began his
address TO the jury. In his address ne
said in part:
Gentlemen of the jury. It is for
| counsel to appeal to you as they them-
selves see their duty. To me the duty
points only to an appeal upon the evi-
dence in court. Counsel should not In
/ ject othe rthings into the case. An ef-
fort to inhame your passions and to
turn your mind from the issue in this
trial 10 another case is not considered
the duty OF the counsel upon Atlantic
| seaboard.
Your oath binds you to render your
verdict upon the evidence and that
alone. You must reach your verdict
by purely and plainly an intellectual
process-as you would dispose of a
problem in geometery. an equation In
algebra or a sum in arithemetic. You
are to be the sole judges of this issue
and you are to judge by the facts in
this case"
In the opening remarks Jerome said:

TRANSPORTATION
FACILITIES GOOD
Many Roads to Jamestown
20 Million People Only
Days Ride Away.

There has been an interesting dis
cussion as to the efficiency of the
transportation facilities connecting the
locality wherein the jamestown ter
centennial exposition is to be held
with the country at large. 1t has been
shown by exhibits made by those in
terested directly in the exposition that
these facilities are ample. The pre-
diction is therefore made that this
celebration on the southern shores of
Hampton Roads, commemoratfng the
Booth anniversary of the first perma-
nent English speaking settlement in
America, will be one of the most popu-
lar eXpositions In point of attendance
that has ever been held in this coun-
try.
Norfolk, often called the gateway
of the south, while not a city of the
population of Chicago, Philadelphia,
Buffalo or st. Louis, where previous
expositions have been held, is never
theless more advantageously located,
for within a twelve hour radius of
the city there live 200O0 900 people, and
within a twenty-four hour radius, Al
000, 600, or more than half of the popu-
lation of the entire country. Connect
ed with the north, south and west by
eight or ten railroads and as many
steamship lines, there is every assur-
ance that the daily throngs to and
returning from the er-centennial will
be afforded ample transportation ac-
commodations.
Appreciating the value and import
ance OF the water features of the
Jamestown exposition, corporation
has been organized under the title OF
the Water Belt Line" that viii oper-
ate excursions to the many points OF
historic interest on the shores OF
Hampton Roads and tidewater, vir-
ginia.
Quick ferry service will connect New
port News, Portsmouth. Hampton and
Old Point Comfort with the exposi-
| ton grounds. and together with the
numerous regular steamers will put
off and take on passengers at the
commercial piers of the exposition
This, in addition to the railroad con
nectlons from Norfolk and the sur
rounding cities. consisting Of three
electric and one steam road, promise.

FIRST LIST Of
CANDIDATES
Names of Those Who Would
Take Jamestown Trip
are Announced.
STARTS BALL ROLLING
Many Popular Bellies Hold Back for

After many hours of expectation and
THE LAKE COUNTY TIMES prints the list
of candidates who have been recon-
mended by their friends for the free
trip to Jamestown. The excitement
that THE LAKE COUNTY TINES offer has
caused throughout it's circulation ter
ritOry has grown to such an extent that
the paper would be forced to print
the first list of names even If it should
desire to withhold them for a time
longer. 1t IS expected that the first
publication today will start the ball
rolling in whose wake many more
names VIII follow. From the discus
sions heard on every side 1t can be seen
that a great many are holding back
until the ice is broken.
1t is up to the candidates whose
names have already been submitted
and those who are prospective candi-
dates to get around to their friends for
their suppodt. There is nobody in the
entire circulation district that is with
out friends and the page advertisement
in THE TINES today furnishes the guide
for the work. There is no possible
question that could be asked in con-
{
answers could not be found In the ad-
vertisement that has been appearing
/ for some time and reappears today.
A nominees subscription coupon also
appears today which the candidate may
use in getting votes. Similar coupons
viii be furnished by the office upon re-
/ quest OF the candidates.
1t has been learned that in some in
stances names of candidates have been
submitted by their friends without first
consulting the young lady, thereby
hoping to enter her when the chances
were easy and before she could walt
for the breaking Of the ice. That the
trip viii be worth while may be taken
from the fact that millions OF dollars
will be spent on the exhibition and that
thousands of other people VIII spend
good hard cash and come from all parts
of the world TO see ii. To the can
didates whose names are given today
and to the prospective candidates thi:
trip is offered absolutely free OF charge
The candidates entered thus far are a:

case against Thaw. Although court
was not convened until 1880 o'clock,
fully two hours before that the ad-
vance guard OF spectators began to
arrive and took up positions of vantage
in corridors leading to the court room
so as to be among the first to be ad-
mitted when the doors were opened.
The police, however, anticipating
just such a move upon part of the out
siders, were prepared for the rush and
kept doors closed until IL o'clock
But this did not prevent a large num-
Der of favored friends from getting
into the court room before that hour

ANTI-STRAPHANG|NG
SENTIMENT GROWS
Hammond Developes Feel
ing That Breeds i'll for
Street Car Co.

The people Of Hammond are develop
ing a healthy anti-strap hanging senti-
ment that promises to make trouble
for the street car companies If the
service is not improved in the future
The traffic on all of the lines of the
Hammond, Whiting & East Chicago
street railway has increased to such
an extent that at times during the day
the number OF cars Is not great enough
to accommodate it.
In the morning, noon and at night
when the rush is on, there is not a
car leaving for East Chicago that is
not crowded with passengers and strap
hangers.
At the same hours of the day the
cars to the Conkey plant are so crowd
ed that although an extra car makes
the trip, both are loaded to their ca
paclty.
The cars leaving for 63rd street are
always crowded no matter what time
Of the day they happen to be leaving
and the same is true of the cars thai
leave East Chicago and Whiting fol
the same destination.
In speaking of the situation prom
inent business man said today:
There was a time when the lines OF
the Hammond, Whiting & East Chi
cago street railway covered a large
sparsely settled territory and coult
hardly be expected to pay dividends
At that time the criticism of the ser
vice was unjust for an additional ex-
penditure of money could not be ex
pected to bring results.
"At this time. however, the situation
is entirely different. The amount Of
traffic justif1es the expenditure of mon
ey for betterments and the peopl,
are not getting them.
Some time ago it was announced
that ten new cars were being con
structed for the purpose of improving
the service, but so far nothing ha
been heard from them
The strap hangers are demanding
better service. The street car com
pany can afford to give it, and if tn,
people can't get it from the compan.
that is now in the field. they will in
vite the competition of a company tha
will give it

HAS EIGHTEEN MORE MONTHS
Term of Thomas Mccoy at the State
Prison.

The Rensselaer, Republican says that
the question has been considerably dis
cussed as to just how long a time Tom
Mccoy will have to stay at Michigan
City. His sentence was the regular
one for embezzlement, of from one
TO three years. This means that un-
less the board Of pardons or the gov
ernor acts on his case for some spec
ial reasons, which is not likely, that
he Will have to stay there about
eighteen months. provided he makes
the best record for good conduct and
obedience to rules. This he is practi-
cally certain to do, and next fall Tom
Will no doubt walk forth a free man.

$4,000 Will be Expended on
Erection of Station
at Gibson.
WILL Be UP-TO.DATE
Fact That Lines Terminus and Gen.
eral Offices Are There Makes
Point Important.

The Chicago and Indiana Southern
railroad has staked out the ground
and will at once begin the excavations
for depot at Gibson that is to cost
in the neighborhood of $4,000.
The new depot is to be built at the
intersection of the Chicago and In
diana Southern and the Michigan Cen
trail railroads and will be erected with
view to future needs of the locality.
1t is said that 400 passengers get
on and off the trains at Gibson and
now that the new offices buildings of
the Chicago and Indiana Southern
railroad are ready for occupancy the
number will be increased considerably.
There is also quite a village being
built up in the vicinity of the yards
and before many months are past II
is believed Gibson Will be quite a place
Frame With Trimmings.
The new depot will be about 20 by
80 feet in dimensions and will be q
frame structure with the exception that
there will be some brick and stone
trimmings. There will be women's
and mems waiting rooms and the
toilet and retiring rooms that are
usually to be found in an up-to-date
depot
AS the Gibson station is the nearest
the center of population in this region
1t will be the depot to which Ham
mond, Whiting, Indiana Harbor and
Gary, as we'll as East Chicago pas
sengers will have to go to take the
trains for the south.
The fact that it will be practically
the terminus of the line and that the
general offices are located there vii
make the Gibson station one Of the
most important on the entire road.
