WORK RECORD
MADE BY STEVENS

Thursday. March Il, was the banner
day In the digging Of the Panama Canal
since the United States Government as
sumed responsibility for that gigantic
enterprise Chief Engineer Stevens.
whose resignation has been accepted boy
the President, to take effect April I. but
who has done such magnificent work on
the isthmus. reported by cable 10 the
Secretary OF War under yesterdays date
as follows.
Broke all records yesterday. 5000
yards. CUlebra cut
The removal Of $500 yards Of dirt and
stone from the Culebra cut IN one day
is considered q most remarkable feat
Even officers OF the army. when they
heard today Of Chief Engineer Stevens
work OF March L. expressed surprise.
and the opinion that he has set a pace
for Lieutenant Colonel Goethais and his
associates which IL viii be difficult 10

NEW YORK. March 1s.-Abraham
Hummefs testimOny-fOr what II is
worth-concerning the affidavit that
Evelyn Nesbit made in his office against
Thaw is before the jury.
Evelyn Nesbit Thaw's solemn oath-for
what II is worth-is that she was tricked
and duped into signing that paper, is also
before the jury.
This discredited little lawyer, with his
unsavory record. and the fraH little
woman, with her dark past, have fol-
lowed each other on the witness stand.
giving diametrically opposite accounts OF
the framing Of the fateful paper which,
toward being Thaws death warrant.
Shows Thaw in Bad Light.
For this sworn statement skaters
Evelyn Nesbit Thaw's story TO atoms.
It removes the onus of having commit
ted the most terrible wrong on earth
from Stanford White. It shows Thaw's s
willingness 10 make a womans shame
the instrument Of his revenge upon a
man he hated. and II takes away the re-
cital by the woman he loved Of a story
so horrible that 1t drove him mad.
In this affidavit Evelyn Nesbit de-
clares that Stanford White never drug
ged and abused her, nor ever ill-treated
her at any time. save with true kind
ness and consideration, and II asserts
that Thaw. in order 10 punish White.
whom he disliked, prepared a written
paper IN which he charged White with
having drugged and wronged her when
she was only fifteen years old. and that
Thaw begged and pleaded with her 20
sign this paper. and when she refused.
because Il was not true that White had
so threatened her, that Thaw stripped
her clothes from her body and beat her
with a whip.
In her evidence Mrs. Thaw explained
this by saying that when she came home

Ethel Thomas Located;
Important Thaw Witness

NEW YORK, March 16.-Ethel Thomas,
a missing Thaw witness and a highly
vital one 70 the prosecution, has been
found in Philadelphia. The fact is re-
markable, for the reason that the dis
trict attorneys men exhausted their re-
sources TO discover the Whereabouts of
the girl. and. finally, caused a report TO
be spread that she was dead.
Ethel Thomas IS the pretty young girl
who once began an action to recover
damages from Harry Thaw. She ac-
cused him of receiving her in mis- apart
ments and whipping her. This punish
ment is similar to that which the prose-
cutlon alleges Evelyn Nesbit Thaw
swore she received from him in the IA
nous Hummel affidavit which has been
offered in evidence
The prosecution keenly desired 10 get
in touch with Miss Thomas. The ex-
pectatinn was not so much that she
would testify, for there was a doubt II
her evidence would be admissible, but
she was known to be in possession Of
facts. the knowledge of which would
greatly help Jerome.
StrikinCly similar 10 Mrs Harry Thaw
in features and form, Miss Thomas was
noted for her sprightliness and beauty
while she was in this city.

Seashore Apartments;
Expecting Acquittal

ATLANTIC CITY. n. j.. March l6.-
Harry Kendall Thaw has reserved d
suite Of rooms in one OF the fashionable
hotels through Attorney Delmas. who
was here last week. The news was
something of a surprise and was
promptly denied by the hotel people Ad-
mission was made that the Countess Of
Yarmouth Is expected in the hotel
What is curious is that all OF the
members Of the family who are expected
to come to the shore have concluded
that Harry Thaw Will be acquitted on
the first ballot The room he is TO oc-
cupy has been selected. and commands
d view of the inlet and the ocean. HIS
wife is to be with him.
The intention Is TO have him recuper-
ate Immediately after his acquittal In
the salt air. as the prison life has been
telling on him.
Thaw is expected any day after the
trial closes The rooms have been en-
gagged for rot later than Easter. to be
so occupied III TIE meantime that they
may he speedily vacated.

IMPORTANT CLUE
IN KIDNAP CASE
FROM BALTIMORE

DOVER. Del, March l6.-An important
clue which practically confirms the re-
port that the kidnapers OF fOur-year-old
Horace Marvin used a sailboat to steal
him from his fathers home, and indi-
Gates that the stolen boy and his alb
ductors may be hiding in Baltimore,
was brought here late last night by
Capt "ScOtty" Clark, a veteran oyster
man of Baltimore.
The abduCtOrs Of the Marvin boy, ac-
cording to Captain Clark. spirited him
from the bay meadows farm in a boat
going up the Delaware river to the
Chesapeake and Delaware canal, which
they hurried through toward Baltimore
While the boatman did not see either
the kidnapers or the boy he talked to
a cOlOred man who did, and found the
boat they used deserted on the bay
shore near Bayview. suburb Of Bal
timore.
The Baltimore police and the agency
Of the Pinkertons Of that city were i'm
mediately sent the tip for investigation.
One Of Dr. Marvins staff Of private
detectives also left last night for Balti-
mere, where he viii personally work on
th6 SailbOat theory.
Upon the floor of the cabin Clark
found a blue mitten with its finger ends
frayed
Curious to learn who owned the boat
and how il came TO be deserted on the
beach, the oyster man went 70 the home
Of negro, Rufus. Thomas, about a mile
away, and asked him. The negro said
that man and a woman, who car
ried a boy crying loudly had left the
boat They got there early Monday
morning and after beaching r. sIoop
went to Thomas home where they asked
for some food. The boy was kept care
fully concealed during the time they
were in the house, the negro told Clark.
No food was given him, although the
child pleaded continually for some nour-
ishment.

Lawyer McPilJe, Delmas partner. called
at the criminal courts building TO OBJ
tain summons for several witnesses. In
this connection McPike made an error
which has caused much comment.
McPike Again BlundeTs.
He first went to the Iombs police
court instead of the criminal courts
building and applied for the summons.
Magistrate Barlowe explained he had
no jurisdiction and sent the lawyer TO
the clerk of the supreme court. Nc
Pixies display OF ignorance was regarded
as joke when 1t became known.
That the end of the trial seems near
is gratifying to every one connected
with the case. Jerome has announced
he expects to rest after getting in the
Hummel affidavit. Just how long de-
fendant will take rebuttal testimony is
not known.
1t is possible the case will go to the

from Europe. where she had spent the
summer, travelling with Harry Thaw,
Stanford White was very jealous OF
Thaw and tried to ALLEVIATE her from his
rival by telling her terrible stories OF
ThaWs conduct 70 other women
In order 70 make breach between
her and Thaw that nothing could
bridge her over. he took her TO Hummel
and that the little lawyer drew up the
famous af1davit- When he read il to
her she says she refused 10 sign a docu-
mcnt so mOnstrousiy false. but later on.
in Whites studio, she did sign some
paper without read. nC IL.
ia fact, she declares, she was not per
mitted TO read II. but was only shown a
blank space where she was told TO put
her name.
Afterward. when she and Thaw were
reconciled, she told him Of this affidavit
and upon his explaining its pOrtentOus
significance she went 10 Hummels Office
and demanded il and saw il burned up
In a big jardiniere.
Wide Difference IN Stories.
Mr. HummeTs account Of the aTair
differs materially. He declares that
Evelyn Nesbit came to his office three
days after her arrival from Europe IN
the company Of White and that Of her
own accord she made the charges
against Thaw embodied in the docu-
ment When the paper was prepared
and ready 70 be signed he sent IL TO
the Madison Square studio OF White by
two OF his clerks. one OF whom was a
notary public. and IT was signed and re-
turned 10 him.
Mr.. Hummel said that ne acted in the
interest Of White, who lad taken that
manner Of protecting himself, and that
when Miss Nesbit demanded back the
afiiavit that Mr.. White first came and
got II and had IL photographed before
the original copy was turned over 10
her. Furthermore. that she did not
destroy the original but carried II away
with her.
