Declaring he would not base his plea
upon the "unwritten law because his
client found ample protection in the
written statutes of the State Of New
York, Mr.. Delmas made a striking ap-
peal to the sympathics of the jurors,
and so far as he progressed today the
subject of Thaw e insanity at the time
he committed the homicide was not
even kinted at
Mr-Delmas based his argument sole
1y upon the story of Evelyn Nesbit
Thaw. With flushed cheeks but dry
eyes that young woman heard her life
history repeated to the men who are
to Judge her husband, and bowed her
head as her mother WAS denounced in
the bitterest terms and tones the clo'
queut lawyer could command,
''Even beast protects its young
Mr.. Delmas declared with scornful en-.
phasis, but this unnatural mother de-
serted her daughter in this city of mil
lions to be beraycd by n false friend,
TO be lured into a gildcd palace and
there left the victim Of gray haired
mln, wounded, bleeding and devourcd. -
Mr.. Delmas went with great detail in
To the life Evelyn Nesbit had led up
to the meeting with Harry Thaw. In
all of his remarks he referred to her
rs this child for child he said she
was today. He told of Thaw s great
love for her and his efforts to rescue
her from ''the clutches of Stanford
White, whose achievements in his pro,
fessIon were an aggravation of his
crime -

Roosevelt Roasted,

Mr.. Delmas before beginning his at
poured out n torrent of dcnunciation
upon the architect who became the vic
tim of Thaw s pistol. He accused him
Of the "crimc of rape and declared
President Roosevelt had said in a mes
sage to congress that such a crime
should be visited with death. This was
one of the suggestions which Thaw him
self made to his counsel for his sum-
ming-up speegh-one of the suggestions
which played so important part in
the proceedings before the lunacy com
mission.
Mr.. Dclmas declared that God heard
the cry of the fatcd child upon whom
Stanford White had fixed his gaze and
had determined should be his. He
quoted from scripture that ''he who
afhicts fatherless child shnll perish, .
and declared that Providence had sent
Thaw to avenge the wrong.
The attorney declared Thaw is his
wife's only protector-that be came

his wife, ready to share the burdens
that a mother had helped to place upon
her,
Wages Of Daughter S Ruin
Mr., Delmas accused Mrs, Nesbit of
having lived upon the wages or her
daughters s ruin. He sought to picture
to the jury what he termed the sinister
surroundings in which the girl had been
reared. and in doing so he mercilessly
attacked the mother. Mr., Delmas rose
to the highest point of his address TO"
day when he declared the girl moth
cr was the one who had furnished Dis
trct Attorney Jerome with the arrows
with which TO wound the daughter on
cross examination. a ss-examnation
which he declared would live long in
the annals Of criminal history. but
which left the girl s story unshakcn IN

and was told 10 Harry Thaw, formed
the subject Of the argument for more
than an hour. Mr Delmas declared

BIG COPPER USERS ESCAPED
Westinghouse and General Electric
Said to Have Bought Two Years
Supply at 16.

Pittsburg, Oct. 1.--What Is alleged
to have been scheme on the part Of
the copper interests to squeeze both
the Westinghouse interests and the
General Electric is limited at in an Off
cial statement made by one of the
Westinghouse board.
The Westinghouse and General Elec-
trio people are the heaviest users of
copper in the world. That the recent
jump in copper prices was aimed at
these big consumers is alleged, but 1t
is said that both had got beyond
range of trouble.
The Westinghouse interests have
caused it to be announced that they
have not purchased an ounce of cop
per this year nor need they purchase
any to fill their contracts within the
present year. One year ago the West
inghouse people got tip that a
squeeze was coming and they bought
heavily at 16 cents, laying in a sup
ply for almost two years before the
prices were shot up to 26 cents. 1t is
understood that the General Electric
company did the same. The dropping
of rates to Is cents recently caused
the statement to be issued here. 1t
is said here that copper is to be re-
turned TO 25 cents.

SENATOR BORAH'S TRIAL.
Prosecution Confronted by Task Of
Connecting Senator With Fraud.

Boise, Idaho, Oct. /. - The second
week of the trial of Senator Borah,
charged with completely in the Idaho
land frauds, began yesterday before
Federal Judge Whitson, with the gov
ernment attorneys still confronted by
the task of connecting the defendant
with the alleged unlawful combina-
don.
During the first six days of the trial
the name of Senator Borah was sell
dom heard, and the evidence adduced
in behalf of the government had to do
mainly with the activities of former
Governor Steunenberg.
1t seems to be the policy of the de-
fense to admit for the purpose Of Sen
ator Borah's case that conspiracy did
exist. but to contend that Senator
Borah know nothing of its formation
or existence and that he acted in good
faith as attorney in handling land mat.
ters. Senator Borah continues to ex-
press confidence that he will be com.
pletely exonerated.

Labor Graft Case to Jerome.

New York, Oct. John Rice, sec
retary Of the joint district council of
the Brotherhood of Carpenters, has
written to the Central Federated union
that it has been decided to put before
District Attorney Jerome the case of
labor delegate accused of demanding
and accepting money from the owner
of building for declaring off strike.
The matter was brought up first in
meeting of the Central Federated
union several weeks ago. A letter re-
ceived by the Central Federated union
asked for all the evidence the Central
Federated union had in its possession
to submit to the district attorney. 1t
was decided to grant the request.

CAR ASKED SCHWAB's AID.
Friends Say Russian Government
Wants to Americanize shipbulId.
ing Works.

Pittsburg, Oct. |. - The announce
ment from ST. Petersburg to the ef-
feet that the Russian admiralty Is en-
gagged in plans for the reconstruction
of its navy has caused a renewal OF
the reports here that Charles M.
6chwab has been requested by the
Russian government to lend helping
hand in reorganizing the steel works
of Russia, so as to enable the admiral
ty to construct a feet in Russia.
1t is said that Mr.. Schwab has been
asked TO aid in financing the reorgan-
lied Russian steel plants with Amer
lean capital and to engage sufficient
American skilled labor to hustle the
work along, which the Russians seem
unable to do themselves.
Last year Mr.. Schwab visited Rus
sia, ostenslbly for the purpose of get
ting orders for guns and ships. Mr..
Schwabs friends here say, however,
that he was requested to visit Russia
in an advisory capacity ami to as
Sume the financial management of the
rehabilitation of the Izhor steel plant.
Within the last few days 1t has
been announced from st. Petersburg
that the latter concern and other
shipbuilding plants to be constructed
are to be mannged as outside corpora
tions, but that the Russian admiralty
would stand back of these plants as
stockholders. 1t was shown to the
Russian government by Mr., Schwab,
1t is said, that more headway could be
made by contract work than by hav-
ing the ships built by the government.
