THAW DECLARES THAT HE
 BELIEVES HIMSELF SANE.
Shot Stanford White Because of His
 Treatment of Girls.

White Plains, N. r., June 25s-Harry K Thaw spent five hours today-tne sixth anniversary of his shooting of Stanford White-on the witness stand under fire of examination of William T. Jerome, who formerly as district attorney of New York twice sought to have Thaw convicted of murder, and failing, has ever since opposed Thaws release from the Matteawan insane asylum. Today as a special attorney for the state in opposition to Thaw s application for freedom MT. Jerome reminded the witness suddenly of the anniversary of the tragedy, and ques- toned him sharply as to the circum stances of the killing. Both Thaw and his counsel, Clarence J. Shearn, quickly interposed objections on the ground that MT. Jerome was showing animus and serving private interests. !"
 MT. Jerome declared his questioning was within the province of a mental examination" and he was generally up held by Judge Keogh, but he was un- successful in his apparent attempts to make the witness display undue agita- tion.
 The question of Thaws motive in killing White, which had upset the witness in his previous hearings, did not bother him today.
 Tt was on account of the cold blooded way in which he had done things to my wife and other girls" he declared firmly. He refused to answer when Jerome asked if he was insane during the half minute he was killing White But he said later: T think my mental condition was the same as Gen eral Daniel Sickles' when he shot MT, John Key"
 But Jerome quickly retorted. General Sickles did not hide behind a woman skirts as Evelyn testified the other day that you mad done"
 Thaw said that by a combination of his own opinion and that of his alien ists he had arrived at the conclusion that he is now sane

(Applause.)
 T challenge you to find in 16 years where the candidate presented by the committee has, before an election, gone out and rendered effective service in behalf of any man who was fighting the peoples cause against plutocracy
 Now this is the situation (Cries of Parker" and hOots and cheering) this is the situation which we have to meet The democratic party has not the leader (Renewed hooting, cries of Parker" and cheering for Bryan.)
 The chairman: "Gentlemen, MT. Bry an has the floor"
 MT. Bryan: The democratic party has led this fight until it's action has stimulated a host of republicans to im- itate them. I will not say they have acted as they have because we acted first: I would rather say that they at later hour than we caught the spirit of the time and are now willing to trust the people with the control of their own government.
 We have been travelling in the wild erness. We now come in sight of the Promised Land. During all the weary hours of darkness, progressive democ- racy has been the peoples pillar of fire by night; pray you, delegates now the dawn has come, do not rob our party of the right so well earned to be the peoples pillar of cloud by day" (Great applause and cheering)

Rutland Railroad Decision.

New York, July 5.-Justice Gerard,
in decision handed down in the Su-
preme court today, continues the tenn
porary injunction restraining the New
York, New Haven and Hartford Rail-
road company from purchasing from
the New York Central Railroad COM
pany the majority or controlling amount
of stock of the Rutland Railroad COM
pany. The Central has owned a con-
trolling interest in the Rutland for
more than nine years.
Justice Gerard decided in effect that
the transfer of control is in violation of
the Sherman law, particularly that
part of it which prohibits one railroad,
which is competing with another, to
acquire the control of that road. The
injunction was asked by minority stock
holders of the Rutland, who contended
that they would suffer irreparable in
justice from decline in the price of
stock in the road if the New Haven &C.
quired control.
