advanced as a defense.
The "Unwritten Law" Lawyer.
But Thaw had engaged as his lead
ing counsel Dolphin NJ. Delmas of San
Francisco, a lawyer who had defended
dozen or more men charged with
murder, acquitting all of them, 1t Is
said, on the "'unwritten law" defense.
This means that he had presented to
the Jury such a case as to convince the
twelve men that the killing was JUST
fable homicide because of the relations
of the slain man with the wife of the
prisoner. Such acquittals are by no
means rare in certain sections of the
United States, though in New YORK
notable presidents are lacking.
In any event, it was conceded that
under this line of defense it would be
necessary for Thaw's wife to be sub
iected to the humiliation of public
proof Of the truth of the allegations re
garding her relations with Stanford
White. 1t is remembered that Mrs,
Thaw exclaimed just after the pistol
shots in the roof garden:

Harry Thaw and his young wife were
also in the roof garden. Thaw was
watching White rather than the stage.
Suddenly he arose, walked over to
where the architect sat, drew revolv-

White who slipped to the floor dead.
Then Thaw made one brief exclama-
ton. 1t was HE ruined my wife,

Locked In Murderers' Row.
Thaw was arrested at once and tax
en- to the Tombs prison, that massive
pile of masonry in New York which
looks like a medieval castle. There
he was placed in a cell in ''murderers'
row" to await trial upon an Indictment
charging him with murder in the first
degree.
According to stories which were cir
culated at the time and for months
thereafter. Thaw proposed to rely upon
the "unwritten law" to save himself
from the electric chair. His friends
caused the publication of the most
startlingly sensational tales concerning
the relations of Stanford White with
EVELYN Nesbit Thaw prior to her mar
riaee. coupled with insinuations that
White was still pursuing the young
woman with his attentions after her
marriage. Very much of maudlin
sympathy for Thaw was expressed.
Condemnation of White was general
for a time.
His luxurious den" in the Madison
Square Garden tower was denounced
MS a place of nocturnal orgies. 'Ex-
posures" of Whites alleged relations
with other chorus girls we're made.
