ELDER MRS. THAW SERVED.
Receives Papers In Daughter in laws
Suit For Divorce,


Suit For Divorce.
New York, March H. Mrs. William
Copley Thaw was served here with pa
pers In which she is made codefend-
ant with her son, Harry X. Thaw, in
the action instituted by the latter's
wife, Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, to annul
their marriage, AS Harry Thaw is an
inmate of an insane asylum he is in
the eyes of the law legally dead, and
the next Of kin becomes technically the
actual defendant In the case.
An attempt was also made to serve
Harry Thaw at Matteawan by mes
senger who was admitted to the asy-
lum. Later, however, it was made
known that owing to technicality the
service was not completed. DIR. Robert
Lamb, superintendent of the institu-
ton, being Thaw's legal guardian, must
also be served, it was explained.
Learning this, Thaw refused to ac-
cept service, and the process server re-
turned here, where another set of pa
pers was prepared for service upon DR..
Lamb and Thaw. 1t is possible that
Dr. Lamb will be substituted for Mrs.
William Thaw as codefendant.
1t is denied by persons in position to
know the facts that any financial set
tlement has been arranged definitely
between the Thaw family and Evelyn
Nesbit Thaw.
Although Mrs. Thaw is suing to have
her marriage with Harry X. Thaw an
nulled on the ground that he was in
sane at the time of the ceremony, she
admitted that the real causes are quite
different
What the true reasons are promise to
be a mystery forever, for she will not
discuss them. After making the follow
ing statement she begged to be ex-
cused from further questioning:
Despite the fact l am using my nus
band to have our marriage annulled on
the ground that he was insane when
the ceremony was performed, l am
frank to admit that is not the true rea-
son. What is prompting me in this Will
remain a secret as long as | live, and
never in my right sense will utter a
word. | am determined to carry the
secret to the grave with me. Further
than that, found my cause during the
first trial. l will remain mum in this
matter forever"

HUGHES NOT SATISFIED.
Proposed Amendment to Antibetting
Bill Displeases Governor.


Bill Displeases Governor.
Albany, n. Y, March 12.-Fear that
the antirace track gambling legislation
recommended by Governor Hughes in
his annual message to the legislature
might be smothered In committee was
to some extent dispelled by the action
of the senate committee on codes in
reporting the first of the bills intro
duced by Senator Agnew to embody
the governors recommendations
The friends of the Legislation, includ.
ing Governor Hughes, were disappoint.
ed to find that the senate committee
had amended the bill so as to defer its
taking effect until Sept. 1. The gov
ernor made no secret of his disapproval
of this amendment, pointing out that
its only possible purpose was to exempt
the major part Of this years racing
schedule from the prohibition Of gam
bling and declaring that there was no
reason for postponing obedience to the
constitution Of the state"
The bill reported is really a second
airy bill in the antigambling series. II
would amend the penal code by Great
ing a penalty Of imprisonment only for
gambling In this state in place Of the
alternative of a fine now permitted.
The principal bill in the series is that
to eliminate the section of the so called
Percy Gray racing law which virtually
legalizes gambling within race track
Enclosures by limiting the penalty to
recovery at civil suit Of the amount
wagered. The bill to abolish this dis.
elimination and make gambling at race
tracks a felony. as it is elsewhere in
the state, is before the judiciary com.
mittees.
