|C0WARD|CE SAID TO
HAVE CAUSED FATALITY
BOY HAD HIS
LEG CUT OFF

John Halada. twelve years old, of
Hartford street, is at the city hospital
with his right leg taken off at the
knee, the result of being run over by
freight car on the Lehigh coal
docks yesterday afternoon.
Young Halada, with a number of
other boys about the same age, has
been in the habit of playing on the
docks. IN spite of the warnings they
have received. Yesterday afternoon
Halada and six or seven other young
sters were at their usual haunts. They
saw an empty coal car and decided TO
throw off the brakes and have a ride
down the steep incline.
The boys got on the car and let go
the brake. The car started off at a
rapid rate. Halada, it is said, fell off
the car and his right leg was crushed
by one of the car wheels passing over
1t.
The injured boy was carried to his
home. a short distance away. and
later was removed to the hospital.
DR.. ]. c. Wilson decided that it
would be necessary to amputate the
leg, and the limb was taken off Just
above the knee
At the hospital, this morning, 1t
was said that the little fellow was
getting along as we'll as could be ex-
pected and that it was thought that
he would pull through.

THAW FAMILY
Is MENTALLY
UNBALANCED
Special by United Press Wire :

Special by United Press Wire:
NEW YORK, Jan. 14:-The battle
of experts for the life of Harry K.
Thaw began in earnest today when
Attorney Littleton called to the stand
DR.. John T. Deemar, the Thaw family
physician; Mr.. William w. F. Butler,
of Roanoke, Va, and DR.. Littlebury
Foster, of Norfolk, who knew about
his maternal and paternal ancestors.
The defence's counsel expects to util-
ize the remainder of the week intro
ducing experts showing Thaw's men,
tai unbalance.
The opening address for the de-
fense was made by Martin w. Little
ton yesterday afternoon.
Mr.. Littleton promised to forge a
chain of circumstances and to produce
q line of testimony which will prove
Harry x. Thaw undeniably insane at
the time Of the homicide.
Evidence Of hereditary insanity and
of strange, unusual acts of Thaw not
even limited at during the first trial
was told of by Mr.. Littleton, who said
that physicians and nurses who had
attended Thaw were hurrying here
from Europe and that teachers of the
defendant in childhood would be on
hand to give their impressions of "the
wide eyed, distant boy" In conclusion
Mr.. Littleton challenged the district at
torney to produce a single reputable
physician who would say that Thaw
was not insane at the time he killed
the noted architect.
Mr.. Littleton's speech fairly bristled
with surprises. He startled the court
room by declaring that after Evelyn
Nesbit had told him her story in Paris
in 1908 Thaw "drenched himself with
poison" and would have died but
for the heroic work of three physicians
who labored over him all Of one night.
Mr.. Jerome had his surprise to offer,
too, and when Mr.. Littleton started to
launch into the relations of Stanford
White with the girl whom Thaw mar
ried the district attorney was on his
feet with an objection. Justice Dow
ling sustained him, and the name of
the architect was not linked again
with that of the defendants wife. Mr..
Littleton touched but lightly upon the
girls story as she told 1t to Thaw, but
careful as he was on this point he
again drew an objection from the pros
ecuting officer, who said:
'Mr. Littleton now is straying into
a field of stuff which, in my opinion,
will be excluded"
Again Justice Bowling sustained the
objection. 1t was reported at the be-
ginning Of the trial that Mr.. Jerome
would fight this year to exclude the
testimony of young Mrs. Thaw.
Mrs. Evelyn Thaw, looking pale and
careworn, listened to the as
sistant prosecutors description of the
actual details of the tragedy with
tense drawn features.

TRENTON, Jan. 14:-With loud
and positive whir, giving hope of sue
cessful running, New Jerseys law
making machinery was set going at
o'clock this afternoon for the 1920
trip. Every bearing had been well
fabricated by the party caucus oil and
there was no jar as the throttle was
pulled wide open for the beginning OF
the sessions run.
The formal opening of the legis-
lature was made notable by the fact
that the republicans controlled the
organization of both the senate and
assembly, that party having succeed
ed the democratic rule of last year
in the House.
The formation of the new senate
was based upon the votes of fourteen
republicans and seven democrats, a
gain of one for the latter rarity. The
gain being that of Senator William
]. Harrison. of Ocean county, the
successor of Senator Shinn, republi-
can. The new assembly organized
with forty republicans and twenty
democrats. Last year the House
membership was twenty-nine repub-
licans and thirty-one democrats. Es-
sex county this year replaces eleven
democrats with eleven republicans
and Passaic county sends five repub-
licans in place of five democrats. The
democrats gained two members in
Middlesex and three in Monmouth.
Thus the net gain for the republi-
cans, and net loss for the democrats
was eleven votes. On joint ballot the
new legislature showsRa majority of

Large crowds attended the opening
of the two houses and more interest
than usual was taken in the pro-
ceedings because next Tuesday John
Franklin Fort will be inaugurated
governor, and thereafter the law
makers will look to him as the exc
cutive head of the state. There was
a liberal display of beautiful flow
ers upon the desks of the members,
but the display was not as elaborate
as in some former years.
Senator Samuel K. Robinson, of
Burlington county, the republican
leader In the Upper House, called the
senate to order and Immediately a
certificate from Secretary of State
Dickinson was read giving the list
of holdover senators and also the
names of the senators-elect. The
new members certified were: Atlantic,
Edmund A. Wilson, rep; Hudson,
James Fielder, DEM; Mercer, Harry
D. Leavitt, rep; Ocean, William J.

FIVE MEN KILLED
ON THE RAILROAD
WOMAN SAVES
HER LITTLE SON
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

TOTTENVILLE, Jan. 14:-At the
risk of her life in saving her three
year-old son Leslie from being burn
ed to death, Mrs. Lewis Long was
severely burned about the face and
her hair and eyebrows were singed
at fire that destroyed their home at
55 Fisher avenue, yesterday after
noon. The fire occurred about 3:45
o'clock, when Mr.. and Mrs. Long and
their two children, who occupy the
lower floor, and 3. Mary Shea,
mother of Mrs. Long, who occupies
the upper floor, were all at home.
Mr.. Long, who is a machinist, but
out of work at present, was in the
basement at work at bench when
he smelled smoke. He rushed up
stairs and almost at the same time
Mrs. Long, who with her son Leslie
were upstairs with her mother, ran
downstairs. They found the kitchen
In flames. Both Mr. and Mrs. Long
tried to extinguish the fire, but it
soon gained great headway.
Mr.. Long, in trying to get out some
furniture and the piano, was severely
burned. Mrs. Longs first thought
was for the safety Of her children.
The oldest one, at the time. was play
ing in the yard. Leslie had been left
upstairs.
Mrs. Long ran back through the
smoke and flames, and, after consid-
