is in dread of his second trial for STAY
ing Stanford White, because he will
be without the cheering presence of
his loyal wife and devoted mother as
he sits in the court room and because
his favorite sister, the Countess of Var
mouth, will not come to this country
for the trial.
Under the new arrangement of the
courtroom the wife and the mother
will be kept l. feet away from the de-
PENDANT. At his first trial they were
constantly with him and their love and
words of hope did much to cheer him
during his ordeal. He faces the sec
ond trial with the knowledge that he
Will have only his counsel near him.
Thaw will be within a brass railing
at the second trial, while his wife. his
mother, his sister, Mrs. Carnegie. and
his brothers must remain outside. A
has been built around the
wall or the room SO that the prisoner
viii at no time pass his family.
There has been a rumor for some
time that in case of a second disagree
ment, the same procedure will be fol-
lowed as in the cases of Nan Patterson
and DR.. Kennedy. Both of these pris-
oners were allowed to go free under a
suspended sentence, after the two ju-
ries had failed to convict them.
Much New Testimony.
The defense will offer much new tes-
timony - testimony that was not
brought out at the first trial. There
will be score of new eyewitnesses to
the shooting Of White, and al will
testify, that in their opinion Thaw was
insane on the night of the murder.
Mrs. Evelyn Thaw will again, in moul-
ton words Of anguish, tell Of her ruin
at the hands of the arch betrayer.
Stanford White.
Mr.. Littleton has a list of the three
hundred talesmen who have been sum-
moned to appear Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday in the criminal branch of
the supreme court and detectives are
the record of each. This
Is done in every important murder
case by the defense as well as by the
district attorney.
Mr.. O'Reilly and Mr. Peabody
called at the Tombs early yesterday to
see Thaw. They consulted with him
in the counsel room on the second tier
Of the TOmbs prison. Thaw was glad
to see Mr.. O'Reilly again. The law
yer has just recovered from an attack
ot bronchitis. Mr., O'Reilly said that
ne was feeling well and that outdoor
exercise would soon restore him to his
former self
The rumor that Mrs. Evelyn Thaw
had quarreled with her husband was
denied. Mrs. Thaw has been suffer
ing from a severe cold, but she has
been in daily communication with her
husband. She last saw him Sunday.
Evelyn Did Not Call.
Mrs. Thaws chauffeur went to the
prison yesterday morning with a note
hat Mrs. Thaw would call later in the
afternoon. But she did not. She is
still sufferer from a cold, it was said.
Thaw's -u'ial has been set down for
80 O'Clock Monday morning. It is
doubtful whether the first talesman
will be called before noon. Justice
Bowling must first deliver a charge TO
he special grand jury which will hear
al the evidence in the various cases
which the attorney general has refer
red to Mr.. Jerome. Neither Mr.. Jer-
ome nor Mr.. Llttleton has been able
20 estimate how long it will take to
Ill the jury box. 1t might occupy two
weeks. 1t has been decided to lock the
Jury up from the time they are sworn
N. Mr.. Caravan will assist Mr.. Jer-
ome in the prosecution OF Thaw. 1t
IS because the jurors are to be locked
Up for so long that difficulty in filing
lie jury box is anticipated.
