ond time that White is said to have washed
his hands Of Evelyn Nesbit.
From London, toward the close of 1904,
came the report that Thaw and Evelyn Mes
bit had been married In the early part OF
1905 Thaw and the girl returned to New
York on the same steamship.
Finally Thaw made trip to PtttsblrH
His mother, who had disapproved of his as
ISOLATION with Evelyn Nesbit, gave her con-
sent to his marriage, which took place in
the parsonage Of Rev. DR.. w. L. McEwan
Of Pittsburg, April 4, 1905.
With the former model and chorus girl
for a daughter-in-law, Mrs. William Thaw
set about to fit the young woman for the
new social sphere in which she found her
self. She practically forced Evelyn Thaw
into Pittsburg society," despite the many
snubs that were at first offered.
Lived Away From Mother.
According to gossip, the ways Of Mrs.
Harry Thaw and her mother parted
at the time the young woman married
Thaw. 1t Is said that one Of the stipula-
tons made by the elder Mrs. Thaw when
she agreed to the marriage was that Eve
lyn Nesbit should keep away from her
mother.
In Thaw's occasional trips to the city he
cut no public figure. But all this time his
activities were directed in another one-the
watch on Stanford White. The bounding
of White began two years before the shoot

After Mrs. Nesbit returned to America
the reports Of Thaw's cruelty were revived,
and a woman went from New York to the
French capital to see Evelyn Nesbit. 1t is
the belief that this womans way was paid
by White. Tha- woman, who had known
Evelyn Nesbit, wrote back that she had
seen Evelyn in her apartments in the
Champs Elysee; that the girl showed her
bruises on her body and said to her, 'I am
afraid that he will kill me-" It was in the

The convention will be in session in this
city for the greater part of the week.
The presence of Harry l.. Mcpherson,
marine engineer connected with the dock
commission Of New Orleans at the conven-
ton is said to be surrounded by romance.
He is dubbed 1.-The first clipping member"
Of the association. Mr.. Mcpherson brought
with him his bride Of five days. She was
Miss Theresa Ford of New Orleans.
The arrangements for the wedding were
made secretly, no one but the groom's
family having any knowledge of the cere-
mony, which took place a scant two hours
before the time for the departure Of the
train which brought the couple north on
their wedding trip. The trousseau was OBJ
tanned on the way.
1T was hardly an elopement," the BRIDE
groom said today, I'D call 1t more of
quiet wedding, for my folks knew about
IT.

cited all Thaw's actions and also declared
that he had taken her jewelry away from
her.
White knew the secrets that Thaw want
ed to hide, and the knowledge that he did
must have nettled Thaw in the extreme.
On Information that his detectives supplied
| to him, Thaw went to Anthony Comstock
| and told him that White was receiving little
| girls in his studio in Madison Square tower.
The vice hunter went after White with his
usual avidity, but he was forced to admit,
after his Investigations that no case could
be made out against the architect that
would hold good.
With the knowledge that he was being
| Swallowed, White hired detectives himself
| to keep watch on the sleuths who were on
his trail.
1t has been said at different times that
Thaw's attorneys would show, in the course
Of the trial, that the architect sought out
Mrs. Thaw after the ceremony IN Pitts
burg, but 80 far as known the only thing
that points to a meeting between Mrs. Thaw
and White in that time is in the statement
made by Thaw's chauffeur.
The Fatal Climax.
The Thaws came to New York June TO-
staying at the Hotel Lorraine.
In the late afternoon of June Is Thaw
had been at Sherry's. From there he went
back to the Lorraine and, accompanied by
his wife, went to the Cafe Martin. where
he was joined by two friends from Cali
fornia, Truxton Beale and Thomas NC
Caleb. White. his son Lawrence and a
friend also took dinner at the| Martin.
From the best accounts the tables OF the
Thaw and the White parties were sepa-
rated by considerable distance and in
such way that Mrs Thaw could see
White although her husband could not.
AS the dinner progressed Thaw noticed
that his wife became agitated. and on ask
ing her why she passed him a note on
which was written THAT B. eblackguar0
is here"
FROM the restaurant Thaw and Mrs.
Thaw, with Beale and McCaleb. went to

tracted attention by walking up from be-
hind near the chair Of the architect two
or three times. The last time he walked
over he went within two feet Of White,
drew his revolver and fired three shots.
All the witnesses to the shooting say that
Thaw gave White no warning Of his COM
ing and that the architect probably did
not see his assailant before he fired.
Two Of the bullets struck White in the
head. their course showing that Thaw

White on the shoulder. White slipped to
the floor with the shots and died almost
instantly.

at the body for a moment and then. with

replied, Eyes, did 1t: he ruined my wife. "

Thaw had been arrested by Policeman
Debs when his wife went over to him and
threw her arms around his neck. Accord
ing to one witness, Thaw told her that it
would be all right and that she said: II
did not think you would do 1t in that way"
Never mind. Harry; 1 will stick to you
through thick and thin"
Mrs. Thaw was taken away by one of

Thaw was locked up In the West 3Oth
street police station. While in the station
the note that his wife passed to him In
the restaurant in which she told Of Whites
presence. That such q note was passed was
afterward confirmed by Thomas McCaleb.
Large crowds went the following morn
Ing to the police court. where after brief
proceedings Thaw was remanded to the
coroner. Later he was sent to the Tombs.
Before he went to the Tombs he called up
asked him to visit him in his cell. The
Inquest was called on June %.
Thaw Calm at the Inquest.
As Thaw. entered court that day those
present saw a sallow young man. six feet
tall and thin, and with a slight bunch to
his shoulders, push through the crowd at
the rear of the court and take his seat, with
his counsel, William M. X. Olcott. on one
side and a Tombs keeper on the other. The
gray suit he wore had replaced the even
ing clothes of the night before. He was
smooth shaven, and beyond the pallor in
his face and a few lines around the mouth
did not show signs of dissipation. His
square head was sunk well into his Shout
ders as he sat in his chair and his small,
brown eyes wandered carelessly around the
court room or were kept fixed for brief in
tervals on the windows.
Thaw was held for the grand jury a
charge Of murder and the same forenoon
indicted for murder in the first degree.
The night of his arrest Thaw had sent
for Lewis l.. Delafield, who represented
his mothers interests in New York. and at
the suggestion of Mr.. Delafield the firm of
Black, Olcott, Gruber & Bonynge was re-,
tanned In Thaw's behalf. The active work
in the case was done by Mr.. Olcott.

which he later withdrew.
Smith moved to amend the bill by
striking out the section that sought to
to allow the patients to be confined at
the proposed Kalihl hospital and to
permit their friends and relatives to
visit them subject to restrictions by
the Board of Health He spoke strong
~ in favor of the motion. He con-
tended that the station was not the
proper place The patients, If they
went to the settlement would be better
treated and have more pleasant sur
roundings The detention at the Ka-
lihi hospital would on the contrary,
be most depressing. He said that Ha-
Waiians did not fear leprosy as they
ought and they did not take the proper
care and precautions in their meetings
with lepers He pointed out the dam
ger of infection if this feature Of the
bill to permit these meetings of rela-
latives, were enacted. He said that IT
would not be acting in good faith to-
ward the Federal government which
was establishing hospitals at the Set
tlement. He said that the patients
would have better facilities for treat
,ment at the settlement. than at the
station
Chillingworth at this point asked to
be allowed to make certain amend
ments which he thought would meet
with the approval Of Senator Smith.
The latter yielded the floor to Chilling
worth who offered his amendments
The amendments provided that the
patients who were to be treated at the
kalihi hospital, could remain there not
longer than a period of six months
Under the provision of the original bill
they might be kept there for an in
terminable time.
smith secured a further modification
of the bill by striking out the provision
relative to the persons hiding lepers
The bill sought to qualify the exist
ing laws so that person was punish
able if they housed or secreted per-
sons who might transmit the disease
Under such a provision an intermina-
bic amount of litigation might ensue
This provision was, therefore, on mo-
ton of Smith, knocked out and the
statutes on this score left as at pres

question by Bishop, Dowsett admitted
that If Hackfeld & Co. had not guar
anteed the steamship fare of the party
of militia to Lahaina, the militia
would not have gone
Coelho explained that The reason
that no money had been appropriated
by the last legislature to pay this item
was because Governor Carter had told
w. w. Harris Of the House, that it
was not necessary to make the appro-
priatlon as it was understood that
Hackfeld & Co. had agreed to pay the
expenses.
Hayselden said that the reason
Hackfeld s. CO had guaranteed IT,
expeHses had been the fact that the
steamship people had refused to send
out their boat with the militia unless
they were guaranteed the payment Of
the trip If Hackfeld & Co. had not
guaranteed the money the party could
not have gone. He explained that the
trouble arose between a contractor
and some Japanese. The speaker felt
that it was a shame if taxpayers had
to defray the expenses Of maintaining
order when it was the duty Of the en-
tire community to check riots The
arrival Of the militia had checked a
most serious riot. Hayselden said that
he understood most of the claim had
gone toward defraying the actual ex-
penses Of the militia on that trip.
Chillingworth admitted that it was
the duty of the country to put down
rios but he did not favor appropriat-
ing money to stop riots that had been
caused by a lack of tact on the part
of plantation employees. He thought
that if a plantation by lack of tact
on the part of it's employees, caused a
riot, they should have to pay the ex-
penses of causing the uprising. There
had been a far more serious riot at
waipahu in 1904 than the Lahaina
strike and the presence of $50 armed
men had been necessary to put the
riot down, yet there had been request
that money be appropriated to defray
the expenses of that riot.
Smith and Hayselden spoke in favor
of the measure, but on motion of Chill
lingworth consideration Of the measure
was deferred until 2 p. m.
A report from the Conference Com
mittee on House Bill No. 1877, the gem
eral license measure, was made by
Dowsett. The report of the committee
was not adopted so a new committee
will be named.
Consideration of House Bill "a, the
measure that provided for the treat
ment of leprosy in its incipient state,
was then called for consideration on
third reading on motion of Lane.
Lane made an amendment to provide
that the treatment of the patients at

House Bill No. SO, which provided for
the establishment Of the offices of
these new officials.
House Bill No. 100, the arson meas
ure, passed third reading,
House Bill No. 144. relating to gar
nishmcnts, was referred on second
reading to the judiciary Committee.
Senate Bill NO 1O6, providing for the

wall passed second reading.
Senate Bin NO 1O7 relating to fees
Of Witnesses amid jurors being made
taxable to the losing party in a suit,
subject to the direction of the court in
accordance with equity practice, was
referred on second reading to the Judi
ciary Committee.
The Senate then took up the second
reading Of House Bill No 1O1, the de-
fclency appropriation bill The Ways
and Means Committee had, earlier in
the morning, reported against paying
Hackfeld's claim for expenses of quel-
ling the Lahaina riot.
Hayselden moved that the report be
adopted on second reading, except as
regarding cutting out the item of
Hackfeld & CO.
Hayselden spoke against cutting out
the item due II. HackfeId & co. in
connection with the queling of the
riot. He said it was not right to force
a single taxpayer to bear the expenses
like this. If that strike had not been
quelled when it was, it would have
spread all over Maui and the damage
would have been done to all other
plantation. Had that riot succeeded
it would have extended all over Maui
as well as possibly to the other islands.
1t was not Justice and equity to ask
the single firm to bear this expense.
All Of the taxpayers hould bear the
expenses and not a single plantation.
Smith said it was a question of
maintaining law and order, and the
militia should be at the disposal of
every part of the community. Riots
should be suppressed. He felt that it
would not be just to refuse to buy the
claim.
Dowsett said that the committee had
been informed that much of the money
had been used, not for the militia but
for arming private men to guard the
cane fields and property of Pioneer
plantation. Hackfeld e Co. had agreed
to stand the expenses of the trip of
the militia, and it seemed rather late
to come in now and ask the legislature
to reimburse it, when the Legislature
had been in session at the time that
the trip was made. The trouble had
been due to some dispute between a
luna and a laborer. In answer to a
