Thdw Eagerly TeStifieS as to His
Sanity and Declares Stories
About Him Are
WithOu
Truth.

White Plains y. Y. july 2S.--After
kissing his aged mother, Harry X.
Thaw today took the stand in his own
behalf and underwent a searching ex-
animation by District Attorney Jer-
ONE with the utmost composure. lie
answered a hail of questions concern
ing his motive, sensations and actions
before and after killing White and
the events of his entire life with the
greatest frankness and clearness. He
created most favorable impression.
81 believe that in acquitting me the
jury was largely influenced by the be-
lief that White deserved his fate,
said Thaw. 81 believe that a gentle
man should defend his honor but that
he is not justified i'm committing per-
jury to escape the consequences"
Thaw then answered that he
thought it possible White had exer-
cised a hypnotic influence over Eve
lyn Thaw, or at least had a strong in
fuence over her He characterized
the testimony introduced in his trial
regarding the hallucination of girls
locked up in his cell rubbish,
saying that he had tried to prevent
the testimony being introduced.
When asked if his wife reproached
him with lashing women with a jew
eIed whip as Mrs. Merrill testified
and aad threatened ,hip With ,di-
vorce, Thaw answered mo- but re-
fused to allow his wife to be called to
testify against him.
Did you ever write a letter to your
wife containing an immoral draw
ing?" asked Jerome. This was OBJ
jected to and the court reserved his
rulinS.
Thaw said: 81 have always beer
sane medically although | think | may
have been legally insane a few min
utes when | killed White. DR.. Evans
is misled when he says | suffered from
delusions because told by Jerome thai
everything ] said is untrue"
He explained his frequent change:
of attorneys by saying that the law
yers were influenced by the fact tina
they thought the charges he made
against White were untrue.
Asked if he was expelled from Har
ward for studying an immoral subjec
ne said: illegal perhaps; but no
immoral"

GREAT CONSTITUTIONAL
STRUGGLE INAUGURATED

did not speak at his best. His speech
lacked the ring of conviction which
characterized the prime minister The
latter ridiculed what he described
amid the cheers of his supporters, as
"a new tangled Caesarism,' this ar
rogant usurpation' of the lords.
The premier quoted the speech OF
Balfour less than year ago, wherein
the ex-premier said:
1T is the house of commons, not
the house of lords, which settles I'M
controlled our financial system. Ii
the house of lords could touch the
money bills the whole executive ma
chine1y of the country would be
brought to a standstill"
The amusement with which the lib
erals listened to these quotations from
Balfour against himself was only
euualled by the chagrin of Balfour's
followers.
Henderson's speech for the labor
party also gave the liberals great en-
couragement, as showing the whole
party of one mind.

SAYS PRESIDENT OF INDUSTRIAL
RS-DAVIDSON
POSTMASTER.

Milwaukee, Dec. 3.-The convention
OF the National Society for the Pro-
motion of Industrial Education opened
last night with banquet at the Hotei
Pfster. Governor Davidson was
postmaster. President Van Hise, of
the University of Wisconsin, speak
ing of the university as an aid in in
dustrial education, said that the trade
school must be developed upon a far
reaching scale, but as yet such
schools scarcely exist. He added that
Wisconsin constitutes the exception
to the extent that it's trade schools
are begun.
Alexander c. Humphreys, president
OF the society, speaking on the Eco
nomic value of industrial education, y
said:
"Our public schools have placed en-
phasis too markedly upon cultural
studies. We need industrial educa-
ton for the masses if we are to main
tain our own in the fields of industry
and commerce. Many boys are mature
enough physically and mentally to
begin apprenticeship or regular educa-
tional training at IA years of age"

ORGANIZATION REFUSES TO AID
SWITCHMEN-NO TIME
FOR HAWLEY

Chicago, Dec. 3.-W. G. Lee, pres
ident of the brotherhood of railway
trainmen, last night mailed to all
lodges a letter which in part was as
follows:
Let it be understood that the mem
bers of the switchmens union filed
the places of our members during
the authorized strike of trainmen on
the Forth Worth Belt railway last Au-
gust. In the face of such action |
cannot understand how Hawley can
expect our members to disregard
their own laws and decent methods
in order that the present strike be
won for him. Members of our broth
erhood must not take the places OF
the strikers, but should perform their
regular duties or resign and seek en-
ployment elsewhere"
Similar instructions were issued by
President Carter of the brotherhood
of locomotive fremen and engine
men.
Four labor recruiting stations were
opened here yesterday at the direc
ton of the managers committee.

KNOX CRITICISED BY
MEXICAN PRESS

of the government consulted Diaz,
but their mouths were sealed until
Mariscal gave the Associated Press
the foregoing:
No comments have been made as
yet by the Mexican press, but it was
intimated that they will hold the Unit
ed States too hasty. The Record,
the only afternoon English daily,
says:
IF Zelaya is guilty of the things
charged by Secretary Knox, it is easy
to understand the evaporation of the
Washington government. The retire
ment, however, of Zelaya will not ma
terially lessen the load the United
States has undertaken to carry in
Central America, as long as Estrada
and Cabrera are permitted to remain
at the head of affairs in Guatemala"
There is apparent among the citi-
zens an attitude of criticism of Sec
rotary Knox's language in the letter
to the Nicaraguan legation.

215. after a brief but exciting slttlng'
the house of commons yesterday re
corded its claim to exclusive control
of the nations purse. A resolution
offered by Premier Asquith, declaring

in refusing to enact the financial pro

constitution and a usurpation OF the
rights of the house of commons. was
nassed bv a vote of 349 to 1S4.
The opposing forces of the lords
