HISTORY OF NOTORIOUS
WHITE MURDER TRIALS

Stanford White, who was member

Harry Kendall Thaw, spendthrift son
of William Thaw Of Plttsburg, on the

times, White dying almost immediate

and made the statement that: "He
referring to Whitley, ruined my wife"
Mrs. Thaw, as Evelyn Nesbit, went
from Pittsburg to New York az an ar
fists model and later was member
of the famous Florodora chorus.
Thaw was indicted three days after
the shooting and his trial was begun
two weeks later. He pleaded not
guilty, the defense being made by his
counsel on the now famous "braln-
storm" theory. After nearly two
months and half of trial and inquiry
during which a special commission de-
cided Thaw was sane, the jury dts
aqreed-seven voting for the infiie-
tion of the penalty for murder in the
first degree and five holding out for
acouittal. The trial cost the state
$4,000 and the defense $225, 900.
The second trial began on the 6tF
