 New York, Feb 7.-The announce ment that either the mother or wift of Harry K. Thaw would be the prin cipal witness at to-day's proceeding. brought out an unusually large crowt at the criminal courts building. The corridors were filled and scores o1 people, many of them women, tried In every possible way to force them. selves by the officers at the court room doors. But after yesterday af. ternoon's laxity the bars were put up again and very few were allowed to pass. However. half score oi women managed to enter. They were attired in their gayest costumes.
 Justice Fitzgerald had just taken his seat on the bench when MT Del mas of the Thaw counsel requested the clerk to call Mrs Evelyn Nesbit Thaw.
 The familiar figure in blue, now for the first time without her veil, appeared from the judges chambers. She stood near the jury box as Clerk Penny administered the oath.
 Il swear." repeated Mrs Thaw in an audible voice at the end of the formal declaration, which was made just little more impressively than usual.
 Mrs Thaw took her place in the witness chair calmly. She looked steadily ahead at MT Delmas and gave her answers to his first Ques- tions in a clear and firm voice which was soft in quality, however. II
 Harry Thaw smiled. at his wife as she walked to the witness stand, but she apparently did not see him at the time. After she was seated, how ever, she smiled faintly at the pris- oner. Mrs 4.inw's beauty vas generally commented np0n hi the court room. The simplicity of her dress seemed to heighten the effect. Her long dark lashes and heavy eyebrows were mo- tfceable now for the first time to those who have followed the trial. In the excitement of testifying her paleness of the past two weeks fled before rush of crimson tints in her cheeks. .4
 Mrs Thaw in answerato .Delmas's first question said she was born De- cember 25. 1884. Sh0 told of going to the Cafe Martin to dinner on the evening of June 25 with her hus- band, Thomas McCaleb and Truxton Beaie.>

 Mrs Thaw said that McCaleb sat on her left, Beale on her right and Thaw facing her. [. Did you ask again for pencil?"
 Yes. I got one from some one, l don't remember whom."
 Did you write a note?"
 T did. on slip of paper. I think Mir McCaleb gave 1t to me-"

 What did MT Thaw do?"
 He said to me: Are you all right?' I said, Yes"
 What was your condition as to being disturbed or affected?"
 Mir Jerome's objection to this ques- ton was sustained.
 Was there anything unusual in your manner that was visible to oth- ers?" Again an objection was sustained. After this how long did you re- main!" "Only a short time" Mrs Thaw, have you that slip of paper now? "I have not"
 Have you seen 1t sincs!"
