CRITICAL MOMENT IN
 HARRY FLAWS TRIAL
DELMAS IS FIGHTING HARD AGAINST ADMISSION OF HUM
 MEL,S TESTIMONY.

During Argument on the Question Je-
 rome Takes Advantage of oppor-
 tunity to Bitterly Attack Thaw and
 His Wife-DecIares Hummel Will
 Prove That Evelyn Told Him Harry
 Had Beaten Her Because She Would
 Not Sign Papers Accusing White of
 Drugging and Betraying Her.
 New York, March 13,-After fore noon session occupied almost entirely by District Attorney Jerome in a bit ter denunciation of the defendant and his wife, the trial of Harry K. Thaw for the murder of Stanford White was adjourned shortly after 12 o'clock to- day until tomorrow morning. The prosecuting attorney found his oppor- tunity to attack ThaW and Evelyn Nesbit in arguing on the question of the admissibiliity of the testimony which Abraham Hummel, the lawyer, who is under indictment for suborna- ton of perjury in the Dodge-Morse di- yorce case, has to offer, It was to en- able Dolphin Delmas leading counsel for the defense, to consult authorities and frame reply to MT. Jerome, and also to allow the latter an opportunity of completing the hypothetical ques- ton which he is to put to his experts, that the early adjournment was order ed. Mir. Jerome declared that the peo- pie hope to close their rebuttal case tomorrow evening.
 During his argument to-day the dis triet attorney took on for the first time since the case began sustained oratorical tone. He asserted that Hum mel would swear Evelyn Nesbit told him three days after her return from Europe in 1908 that Thaw had heaken her cruelty because she would het Sign papers he had prepared, falsely accus- ing Stanford White of having drugged and betrayed her. MT. Jerome had con- tended that she had told much more, that Thaw seemed bent upon putting Stanford White in the penitentiary that the statement that White had be- trayed her was not true, that Stan ford White had never harmed her. and that Thaw was consumed with rage when she refused to sign and swear to the papers containing Ties against Stanford White"
 "These things were put In the form of an affidavit" declared MT. Jerome land that affidavit was subscribed to by Evelyn Nesbit, when she knew what she was doing, and what the pa7 per containea
 we want to show that the girl who told this remarkable story here on the witness stand, swore at another time under the sol7nnity of an oath, that naked-stripped absolutely naked-she had endured the lashings and beatings of this defendant rather than swear to his false statements that Stanford White had drugged and ruined her"
 Mir Jerome argued that the material point of the case is whether or not Evelyn Nesbit told Thaw the story of her alleged ruin by Stanford White Without that story in evidence, he de- clared the reason for the defendants alleged insanity disappears. The pros ecutor plainly admitted the importance of young Mrs. Thaw's testimony, and he declared that he wished by Hum- mers testimony to show her own re- pudiation of the charges which on the witness stand she renewed against White.

Rhyolite, Nevada, May 9.-The May
flower has just shipped a ton of ore
by express. The material came from
the 300-foot level and 1t is estimated
that it will average between $1,000 and
5000 to the ton. The shipment was
brought in from the mine by Supt. Rob-
ert Smith and deposited in John s. Cook
& Co.'S bank until arrangements could
be made for sending it out. There has
been a constant increase of values with
depth at the Mayflower. Superintend-
emit Smith says: "The south drift from
the 3OO-foot level is still widening n
getting richer with distance. We had
not proceeded very far owing to the
hardness of the rock. The air drills
ordered by wire last week. are on the
way and we do not expect to make much
Roadway until they arrive. Upon their
arrival we will rush matters as fast
as the latest improved machinery will
do 1t. The seven foot face of the south
drift does not show any signs of narrow
ing. There appears to be nc longer
any doubt as to the depth of the forma-
tion. 1t is high grade ore with increas-
ing values at such a rapid rate that we
have a right to believe the mine will
rival anything in Nevada. The north
drift shows a full face of ore averaging
SIS per ton"
A report from the Pittsburg & Green

in Rhyolite states that the vein has
been reached at a depth of 65 feet In the

that the ore is high grade copper. The
