New York, Jan. 20.-Ths most as
toniShing move that has yet been
made By either the prosecution or the
defense in the trial OF Harry X,
ThAw, charged with the wilful muir
der OF Stanford White, came Friday
when District Attorney Jerome asked
the court to exclude from the court
room the public, including the news
paper writer's, during the repeating by
Evelyn Nesbit Thaw Of the stories
she told on the witness stand at the
first trial.
Mr.. IAttleton. for the defense,
quickly added his request to that OF
Mr.. Jerome.
Justice bowling announced that he
would take the question under Consid'
Grafton and give a decision Monday,
At the FIRST trial hundreds of people
bOsieged the court room and used
every artifce to secure admission
while young Mrs. Thaw was telling
her horrible story on the stand. The
lines were drawn very tightly, even
then only a few outsiders and those
present who had influence with the
court officers securing admission.
There were fow women in the
court room when the story was begun
apd JustiCa FITZGERALD stopped the
testimony to give those Of them, who
desired, an opportunity to leave the
room. Not one OF the few women
who had schemed so hard for admis
sion, took advantage Of the opportu
nifty to leave, but all remained until
