Taking Off of Stanford White
Not the Premeditated Act
of Harry Thaw.
PRISONER TELLS DOCTOR EVANS
Much-Discussed Will Is Finally Ad-
mitted as Evidence.
Its Peculiar Provisions Which Are
Depended on to Establish the
Insanity PIea-Other IL
IusiOnS Shown

New York, Feb. 19.-"I never want
ed to shoot the creature. / never want
ed to kill him. I knew he was a foul
creature, destroying the mothers and
daughters of America, but / wanted
through legal means TO bring. him to
trial. I wanted to get him into court
Ito bring him to justice. But PrOvi-
donce took charge of it; it was an act
of Providence" This is Harry x.
ThaW's own story of the killing of
Stanford White. 1t was told by him to
DR.. Britton ID. Evans, the alienist, last
August in the TOmbS. DR.. Evans re-
DGated the prisoners words to the jury
which is trying Thaw for his life.
Jerome's Fight Unsuccessful.
District Attorney Jerome fought hard
last week against the introduction Of
this evidence, which the defense be-
lieves is conclusive proof that Thaw
did not know his act wasWrong. OOnce,
however. the testifying physicians had
declared that in their opinion Thaw
was insane at the time heEmade the
statements to them, the rules of evil
dence permitted the introduction Of the
prisoners words. In further Dulwark-
ing their contention that Thaw was
insane when he killed Stanford White
the defendants counsel succeeded in
placing before the jury the will ex-
ecuted by Fhaw the night of his mar
riage in April 1905, and codicil to
the will executed ut the same time.
Possible Meaning of Jerome's Tactics.
Again Jerome fought the evidence,
put he significantly withdrew his OBJ
.iections after DR.. Evans had given it
as his expert opinion that Thaw was
insane at the time he executed the
will. The fact that the district attOr-
ncy seems disposed to let in testimony
Of every character, provided there is q
preliminary opinion from the witness
that the man was of unsOund mind at
tho time to which the testimony refers,
was taken as further indicating that
Jerome may. at the physiological mo-
ment. if he deems his hand strong
enough demand the appointment of a
commission to pass upon Thaw's state
CT mind at the present moment.

Disaster OH German Steamer.

New York. Feb. 18.-Seven per-
sons were instantly killed and three in
jured anG considerable damage was
sustained by the vessel by an ex-
plosion on board the German steamer
Valdivia while at sea last Wednesday.
The accident was reported when the
steamer arrived here.
The donkey engine boiler exploded
at Ills on Wednesday morning,
throwing the steamers funnel over
and ripping open the upper dock. The
seven dead were killed instantly

most of Thaw's statements by DR.. ChaS.
e. Wagner. of Binghamton, who first
figured as a witness early last week.
District Attorney Jerome cross-exam-
intG DIR. Evans briefly on the one point
of his opinion that Thaw was of I'M
sound mind at the time of executing
his will. The prosecutor and witness
flashed fire at the first contract, and
there was every indication that when
Jerome undertook DIR. Evans cross-ex-
animation in general the proceedings
would be as lively and interesting as
any ever heard in a local court room.
DIR. Evans met the preliminary at
t2cks boldly, and seemed as ready with
his wits as the district attorney. This
was illustrated when Jerome, in Il
tone of aggravation, asked the wit
ness:
well, what can you say?'
There are many things | could say.
but / am not permitted to say them,
retorted the physician amid laughter.
DelmaS was on his feet during every
bit Of Jerome's cross-questioning Of
the witness. He interposed many OBJ
jectiOns and generally was sustained.
He looked sharply to DR.. Evans inter
est, but the latter appeared to be well
aware of his privileges.
Mrs. Thaw Again on Stand.
New York, Feb. 19.-The defense
sprang surprise at the opening of
the Thaw trial by recalling Harry
ThaW's wife.
Mrs. Thaw identified fortytwo let
tiers as written by White. She testi~
ged that May Mackenzie, the actress,
told her Stanford White said the love
between Thaw and his wife would not
last, and he would get her back. She
met White at May MacKenzies bed
side in 1901 and he attempted to emf
brace her
Mrs Thaw told of Thaw writing to
Anthony Comstock describing Whites
studio i'm the Madison Square garden
tower, the famous velvet swing and
the mirrOred bedroom. ''WOrkmen on
the outside of the building frequently
heard the screams of young girls from
the tower" the letter said. District
Attorney jerome reserved his right to
cross examine the witness.
The defense then introduced Mrs. J.
J. Cainc. of Boston, Mass, as wit
ness. Mrs. Caine testified to hea~
ing Harry Thaw ask Mrs. Nesbit that
he be allowed to marry her daughter.
She also testified to an incident at the
theater in which Stanford White APP
peared, the object being to show the
effect Whites presence had on the de-

The will and the codicil, as read to
the jurors, were offered in evidence as
cumulative testimony of Thaw's men,
tai unsoundness prior to the killing of
White. In his will Thaw provided that
his executors should set apart the sum
of 10000 for the investigation of his
death in case of a violent Or suspicious
end, and for the prosecution of the per-
sons suspected of having had hand
in his taking off. In the codicil Thaw
left to a lawyer in Pitttsburg the sum
of $500 to be used in securing legal
redress from Stanford White and one
other perSOn-whOse name was not al
lowed to be read-for the benefit of
four young women who, Thaw de-
clared, had been the victims of ''de-
grading assaults in a house furnish
ed and used for orgies by Stanford
White and other inhuman scoun-
drels."
The names of the four young Wom-
Ell were mentioned by Thaw, but were
not made public. Thaw also be-
queathed sums of $500 each to Rev.
DR.. Charles III. Parkhurst, Anthony
Comstock and lawyer named in his
codcil, to be used in discovering fur
Their alleged misdeeds by Stanford
White. and securing redress for the
women.
The opening Of court found Attorney
Delmas again in his accustomed place
at the head Of ThaW's counsel table.
During the day there was no surface
indication of the storm which it is
said ragged among counsel for the de-
Tense during the latter part of last
week. after the trial had been adj
jOurned because of the death of Juror
Bottoms wife. Bolton was early at the
criminal courts building, and said that

the trial. 1t was decided that the jurors
should not again be confined until they
finally retire to make up their verdict.

CRIPPLED HARVARD CREWS.
Both the Varsity and Freshmen Crews
Are Short of Men.

Red Top, Ct, June 1.-THE Harvard
crews are facing critical situation APP
parently through loss of men in the Var
sitv and Freshman Fights. Last evening
while on the lawn in front of the quar-
tiers, Charles Morgan, the Varsity sub.
fell and niurcd his back. The mshap
was not thought to be serious, hut this
morning DR.. Manhattan after examining
Morgan said he would not be able to 50
into tie crew again this year. Coach
Wray was about to put Morgan in the
Varsity four-oarcd boat in place OF r.
Bacon. The injury to Morgan and the
fact that Lunt. another Varsity sub, is
out of the boat, leaves Coach Wray with
only Buchard as sub. He is a starboard
oar and should anything happen to a port
oar man will have to be taken from TIL"
four-oared crew. which would mean that
that crew will be broken up.
The Freshman eight also suffered today
when Buxton at No. was founC to have
throat trouble and DR.. Manahan is not
yet certain whether it is 4 slight attack
of the humps or of tonsilitis. Vogel
went from the four-oared boat to NO. 4
in the eight and LornG went into the
Freshman four ab No. .
Buxton is likely to be out of the eight
for several days as least, and although
Wvman, who has been in the New Lon
don hospital with humps. returned today.
he may not 60 back into the boat for 4
day or two until his actual condition has
been determined
All the crews except the Varsity eigh.
had an easy time this morning. The eight
went down stream for a mile and half
and were worked in short stretches
Coach Wrav said he was not satisfied
with the work at the catch and feather
ing, and he coached TO overcome these
faults. sHsi4I4.E
