Burden of Lawyer Little
TONS Defense of ThaW
Prosecutions Presenta-
tion Of Case Was Brief,
But the Real Battle Is
Yet to Dome - "The
People Rest"

New York. Jan. 1s.-The prediction
that nothing in the life of Harry X.
Thaw OF his family would be spared
to save him from the electric chair
for killing Stanford White, was con-
nrmed today when M. w. Littieton out.
lined the defense. Thaw was mad
man bereft Of all reason, when he
killed White. Is In substance what
Mr.. Littleton says he will prove. And
70 substantiate this defense ne will
produce evidence to show that on the
yaternal and maternal side Thaw had
relatives who were insane, at least
one of them dying in an insane asy-
lum; that Thaw was born weak
minded, and that on several occasions
ne was insane at least temporarily,
and once while suffering from melan-
cholia tried to kill himself. Briefly
that was thereby OF Mr.. Littleton
30 the case of the prosecution, which
was presented In four hours.
Only four witnesses were brought
forth to show. as Assistant District
Attorney Garyan announced in the
opening Of the peoples case. that
Thaw committed deliberate. premed-
itated and cowardly murder. The
chief witness presented by the pros
ecution was James Clinch Smith,
Whites brother-in-law, who did not
appear on the direct at the last trial.
His story In the main aid not de-
viate from any vital point from the
story he told before, except that Mr..
Lttleton put him through much
longer cross examination. But II did
not shake his story; to some 1t SEEM
ed that the more Mr. Lttleton ques-
toned him the stronger his story
bore out the contention of the pros
,eoution that every act OF Thaw's' on
the roof garden the night he killed
White was that OF a man rational,
and premeditating murder. Mr.. Smith
described how Thaw came up ana
spoke to him, how they chatted about
Wall street, ocean liners, girls, one
buxom brunette mentioned by Thaw,
for about half an hour. He gave a
QlctuT6 Oh uhW oOtNN
the roof garden, with his eye fixed on
one spot. Every movement Thaw
made Mr. Smith watched until finally
Thaw fired the three shots that killed
the architect. And from what he OBJ
served that night and the conclusions
he made from It, Smith said he knew
that Thaw was watching his brother
in-law, although he did not know
who had been killed until an hour or
more after he left the garden. II was
a surprise to Mr. Littleton to have
20 make his opening address to the
fury this afternoon. He had expected
that District Attorney Je ONE would
take up all the day with his case,
but after one witness had been exam
sned after Mr.. Smith, Mr. Jerome
said. "The people rest"
Mr.. Littleton got respite OF ff-
ssen minutes TO get ready ana then
he dug deep into the history Of Thaw
