The boss was out at lunch. and it
was the second barber who answered.

He didn't say shes not here today"

of Black, Olcott Gruber e Bonygne
had been selected by the Thaw family
After reviewing the evidence they an
nounced to the family that the defense
must be built up along the lines OF
emotional insanity. This plan was re-
pellant to Thaw himself and friction
arose, which resulted in the retire
ment of the firm.
Relies on Unwrittcn Law.
1t was DelmaS who decided upon
an appeal to the "unwritten law, sup
plementing it, however, with a theory
of occasional insanity, which proved
rather cumbersome in practice. The
argument which the San Francisco at
torney made at the close of the hear
ing was directed at the emotions o.
the jury, and his review of the evil
dence was chiefly designed to impress
on the minds of the jurors the de
bauched character of the slain man.
1t was eloquent and imprisoned and
full of subtle strokes. but the result
showed that its effect was largely null
lifted by the satirical. incisive utter
ances of the district attorney.
Change to Insanity Plea.
The second trial of Thaw began Jan
IG before Justice Bowling. who held
night sessions until the jury had been
selected. Only married men were ac-
cepted, and it took just five DAYS to
complete the panel. In the second
trial Martin W. Littleton of New York
was selected as leading counsel This
time the prejudice of Thaw and his
| family was laid aside and the defense
was mainly that of insanity. evidence
| being adduced to show that the faint
was hereditary in the Thaw family for
4 number of generations. The veil was
| torn aside and every pathological de-
| tail was barred before the jury in the
hope of saving the young millionaire
f, from the electric chair.
| Cost Family n Fortune.
II is estimated that the two trials
cost the defense a total of 1885,. 900.
and the state total of S101 900. In
, the first trial the defense spent s225.-

Code Messaqss BY Wire.

N seems strange that even now there
are many restrictions on the use of as
ordinary a thing as cable or tele-
graph wire. Yet it is true that nobody
Is permitted TO send to or through Por-
tugal anything having TO do with the
deeds or thoughts of anarchists and
that code messages of any kind are
forbidden in Tripoli. Bosnia, Roumelia,
Roumania, Herzegovina, Bulgaria and
other Balkan states After that 1t
seems unnecessary to mention that
Turkey forbids code messages. but it Is
a little surprising to find that you can
send a message to most parts of Per
STA in only one language-that is,
French-and If you address most
places in the land of the shah your
message will be translated into the
tongue of Gaul and diplomacy when II
reaches Teheran.

Review OF Thavy Case.

Few cases in the annals OF criminal
jurisprudence i'll America have slim
ulated the degree of public interest
which followed the unraveling of the
tangled skein of human error and
moral obliquity which characterized
the Thaw hearing. Through the two
long and involved trials the public in
terest scarcely abated, and although
the evidence in the second. trial was
less wildly, less fundamentally pre-
scented, it still found eager readers in
all parts of the country
Interest attached to the trial both by
reason of the social and financial prom
inence of the Thaw family and of the
singular light which was thrown upon
certain strata of American life which
are not ordinarily exposed to view.
Crime Committed June -, 1906.
1t was on the night of June %, 1906,
at the Madison Square Roof garden,
that Harry X. Thaw. son of the late
William Thaw, Pittsburg millionaire,
shot and killed Stanford White, who
had enjoyed the reputation of being
one of the foremost architects of the
east, and who was known to the So
called bohemian set in New York as
man who practiced a prodigaT scale
of expenditure. His enemies painted
him as a kind OF modern Silenus, de-
voted to the most degraded habits, in
whom artistic taste flourished upon
the decay of every moral virtue. His
friends spoke of him as a man of the
world" and defended him on the score
of his unfailinG generosity, and his
undoubtedly great artistic endow-
ments. He might have been known
to the world at large only as the fash

His explanation on the night of the
shooting was simple. He said:

| Accompanied by Evelyn Nesbit
Thaw and friend, Thaw had walked
into the roof garden. where he saw
| White sitting at table near by. Elk.
cusing himself 10 his party, Thaw
strolled down the crowded aisles OF
the roof garden and past the table OF
| White. Suddenly he wheeled and fired
three bullets at point-blank range, all
of them taking effect White swayed
in his chair and fell to the floor, while
| his slayer deliberately and without
visible excitement lifted the revolver
above his head, breaking it at the
breech and tumbling the remaining
cartridges on the floor. This was a
sign that he had completed his work
and that the others were in no danger

Alienists Evans and Jelliffe, retained
