ference of counsel having as its object
the arrangement of a compromise as

in Abraham Humnel's office. District
Attorney Jerome offered to let IN Har-

arrangement would do away with the
necessity of taking Hummels testi-
mony on Blackwell's Island and would
also hasten the conclusion of the case.
No agreement had been announced,
however, when the morning proceed
ings were taken up.
The state began by calling several
eye witnesses to the tragedy who de-
clared Thaw's conduct impressed them
