EXPERTS ARE
TO TESTIFY AT TRIAL
Who Appeared at the Last
Trial on the Side of the
Prosecution.
[By Assoo.a.ea Press.l

NEW YORK, Jan. S-The defense
in the case of Harry K. Thaw sprang
Its first great surprise on the second
trial today by announcing that it
had issued subpoenas for several ex-
pert witnesses who testified for the
prosecution at the first hearing, and
who, when District Attorney Jerome
applied for lunacy commission,
made affidavit that in their opinion,
at the time of the inquiry he was suf-
fering from an incurable form OF In
sanity. These same doctors, how
ever. had previously testified on the
witness stand, in response to
Jerome's famous hypothetical ques-
tions that they believed that Thaw
knew what he was about when he
shot and killed Stanford White.
The move is intended by the de-
fense as a block to the prosecution
in putting these same doctors on the
stand and is taken by some as show
ing the determination that Thaw
shall not be convicted. even with the
danger of stay in the asylum for
the criminal insane at Mattewan as
an alternative.
The defense in the present trial is
insanity at the time White was kill
ed.
1t is undoubtedly the intention of
counsel for the defense to interro-
gate and draw from these men the
opinion that Thaw was also insane
at the time of the homicide and then
to limit all testimony as to the de-
PENDANTS mental condition to the inn
mediate period of the tragedy.
The work of jury building went
forward today and at the luncheon
recess there we're six provisional jur-
ors in the box.

Owing to the Courts Tie-Up Of
Funds in Hands Of Anal
gamated Association.
RELIEF BENEFITS SHORT
National Glass Budget Says
Men Are cIamoring
For Money.

OF the Cleveland court order in
the Injunction suit between the Cut
ters' and Flatteners' organization
and the Amalgamated Window Glass
Workers of America, the relief fund,
trade conditions and other matters of
interest, the National Glass Budget,
published at Pittsburg; gives an in
teresting summary.
The Amalgamated- union, as re-
suit OF the Cleveland court decision,
is having hard shedding, the court
having restricted the amount of
money, which 1t is permissible to
spend to $4,000 per week, which or
der interferes with the payment of
benefits which had been commenced
about the time the trouble originat-
ed with the cutters and flatteners.
The workmen are still clamoring for
their hand-out but the officials seem
to be a little leary about violating
the courts order, and besides the
treasury has been frightfully riddled
since the convention was held last
July
A member of this union who at
tended the convention advises the
Budget that as near as he can get at
1t from $4,000 to $4,000 has been
spent during the past six months,
leaving balance in the treasury at
the present time of In the neighbor-
hood of $4,000. The same gentle
man says that an order was issued
from Cleveland last week providing
for the removal of the names of all
cutters and flatteners from the relief
roll, this order being accompanied
with statement to the effect that
there is plenty of work for cutters
and flateners IL hey choose to go to
work at such wages as the Cleveland
sliding scale provides. This order
having been issued after the court
decision week before last, would in
dicate that an attempt is being made
to jolly along idle blowers and gath
erers; either that or the Cleveland
ers are figuring on ignoring the
courts order, since 1t is an open sec
ret that benefits can not be paid out
of a $4,000 a week allowance.
At the present time a merry war
is going on among jobbers of the
Central district, including Western
Pennsylvania and New York, Eastern
Ohio and as far north as Detroit, the
difficulty having reached a stage
where glass is being offered at 80 and
40, single, and 90 and 40, double,
from the October list. In some in
stances, it is understood, even lower
prices than these are being made.
In letter of recent date to Presi-
dent Faulkner, through Mr.. Bizet,
President Edmond Giles, of the Bel
CLAN window glass workers union in
Belgium says:
Il advased you to put your men
to work while was in America, and
now as l Sc that you could not have
done different from what you have,
l advise you tot do it with all your
strength"
President Giles at the same time
wrote Mr.. Bizet as follows:
IN communicating this letter. l,
ask If you can go to Cleveland, and
explain my opinions to President
Faulkner, and tell him that the only
thing that see possible is to let the
men so to work. Who is going to
work anyhow? Nobody knows; and
by staying out you are opening the
doors to the machines and scdbs."

NINETY THREE"
The Story of Famous Name and
How 1t Originated.

|. The foremost dermatologist in
France, Dr.. Sabourand, of Paris, and
Prof. Unna, Hamburg. Germany, dis
covered that microbe caused bald
ness. To prove their theory, DR.. Sa-
bourand infected guinea pig with
some of these microbes, and in COM
paratively short time the animal was
denuded Of every hair that was on its
body.
Some eminent histologists and
chemists were employed by the United
Drug Co., Boston, Mass, to find the
means of destroying these microbes
and remedy that would create new
growth of hair where the hair roots
had not been entirely destroyed.
After months of study, experiment.
ing and research work, they discover,
ed what they claimed would do what
was demanded. To unquestionably
prove their theory, 100 leading drug.
gists, located in as many different
cities, were requested to each furnish
the name of responsible person SUI
fering from falling hair and badness.
Each of these 100 persons were fur
nished three bottles of the prepara-
ton with a request to give it thor
ough trial and report results.
Five OF these persons failed to re-
port. Two declared they had been
bald for years; that their hair folli-
cles had long been closed and their
scalps were smooth and glossy.
Ninety-three OF the 100 sent in en-
thusiastic reports, stated that they
were delighted with the hair-restoring
qualities OF the preparation, and ex-
pressed sincere thanks for the Won
derful benefits brought about by it's
use. III conmemoration of this, the.
new preparation was named ReXall
