covered much of the ground included in
the travels of Harry Thaw and Evelyn
Nesbit during their two trips abroad
which preceded their marriage. The dis
trict attorney seemed last year to have
every detail of the young woman's life
at his command, but 1t was said that
this year he will be able to confront
her with incidents of the European trips
not limited at at the first hearing. ..
To Oppose AIienIsts
There is another point of law on which
Mr.. Jerome will fight for a reversal of
the rules laid down at the first trial.
This Is in regard to the testimony OF the
EXPERTS who declared that Thaw was
insane at the time he committed the act
and for two months thereafter. These
alienists testified as to certain visits they
paid to Thaw in the Tombs.
Mr.. Jerome sought to cross examine
them as to subsequent visits in his at
tempt to show that Thaw, if insane when
he killed Stanford White. has continued
insane ever since. Justice Fitzgerald
would not allow any question as to
other visits than those mentioned In the
direct examination of the several med
ical witnesses. Mr.. Jerome argued the
case several times, out In each case the
court ruled against him. There is every
reason TO DeueN6 lH6 ulbNEtCt fhLtolAOS 10
convinced Thaw is still medically insane
"a paranoic--whose mslady is incurable
Thaw's attorneys will base their de-
Tense solely upon the ground that Thaw
was legally insane at the time he shot
Stanford White, and that he has since
recovered his mental balance. They say
their client is ready and willing to stand
any test that can be devised as to his
present mental condition, and believe he
will make even a better showing than
before the commission which during the
first trial declared him capable of intelli-
gently advising with his counsel and OF
understanding the nature of the proceed
ings against him.
The former commissions work was lin
tied to these two points and Thaw con-
WINGED his examiners in striking man
ner.
II is the general belief that the inn
paneling Of the jury will prove long
and difficult task.

Leave Allotment of Quar-
tiers to Chance

By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.--A unique fea-
ture of the weeks proceedings in the
house of representatives will be the as
signment to members, by lottery, of rooms
in the So 900 900 house office building nov
about completed
The drawing will be held on Thursday,
Jan. 8, Immediately after the reading OF
the journal. Three hundred and thirty
three marbles, conseeutively numbered
from one up, will be placed in a box and
as each in turn is drawn out by blind
folded page and handed to the reading
clerk, its number viii be announced.
The meiober whose number on a prepared
list corresponds with that on the marble
will come forward to the desk and select
by diagram room from among the Ssl
offices into which the first, second and
third floors o. the building are princi-
pally divided.
That only 1893 of the 800 members of the
house will participate in the drawing Is
chiefly accounted for by the fact tina
chairmen of committees are not entitled
to private offices in the new building,
but instead will use the rooms set aside
for their respective committees.
Committee May Not Move
About dozen of the ffty-odd commit
tees including those on banking ana cur
rency, claims and elections, No. l, already
have vacated the capitol and taken quar-
tiers In the office building. How many
more will follow suit is undetermined
Provision has been made for the re-
housing of fourteen. Among several OF
the more important committees there is
decided disinclination to move.
For instance. the committee on ways
and means, the premier committee of the
house. is averse to giving UP its rooms
on the house corridor, but step from
the hall of representatives.
Chairman Payne feels that inasmuch
as the committee embraces in its MEM
bership number of the leaders, both OF
the majority and minority, the commit
tees meeting place should be where it is,
rather than in the office building on b
street, so that its members when in con-
ference may be within instant call If they
are required on the floor of the house
during sessions of that body, especially
when a vote is about to be taken.
on the other hand, Speaker Cannon is
much In need of additional office room III
the capitol and he feels that he could
use to excellent advantage a part of the
space now devoted to the committee on
ways and means.

NEW THEORY ON
GR|FF's QUITTING

NEW YORK. July 16.--From a
source that cannot be questioned IL
was learned today that Clarke Grif-
nth did not voluntarily give up the
leadership OF the New York American
baseball club. That Griffith did not
quit, but was forced 10 resign, will
clear up the situation to the old
fox friends, whose name was le-
giou. .g.s'y W F'-&
The causes leading up TO the sew
erance OF relations between Owner
Frank. Farrell and Griffith involved
several OF the players who went over
the manager :. head with petty griev-
ancss Pitcher Billy Hogg. who made
such a disgracsful showing yesterday,
is said to be one of the disgruntled
men The twirler complained that he
was not being worked often enough
TO do his best Farrell asked Griffith
the reason Grin said that Hogg had
nothing" but was ordered to use MIN
against ST Louis. The result was a
slaughter.
Then Farrell is said TO have turned
on the player and ordered his suspen-
sion, a thing Griff declined TO ratify,
saying II was against his principles
TO take players money from him.
From that point on the breach widen
ed until conditions became impossible
for the little manager.
