home to prevent any possible attempts
at damage to the property. lie could
not say when the troops would be re-
moved.

congratulating me upon my action in
this case"

dragged from harms path she was
ground under the wheels.
Rushed 20 the Polytechnic Hospital,
the doctors Immediately amputated her
legs. and in the delirium following, as
she tossed about on her cot, her nina
must have wandered 70 the days OF old,
for she talked Of when, as the tayorite
Of one of New York's largest brewers,
she had all Broadway at her feet.
On another mission to the hospital,
one of the oldtime patrolmen passed
tbroroh the ward. Attracted by the
beauty of the woman and her mutter-
ings. he stopped. The card Of identl-
fcation on the bed meant nothing to
the officer. But as he gazed he recog-
nized her. The locket she wore was
the corroboration. 1t was Kitty Joyce:
The story of the rise and decline OF
Kitty Joyce is the old story OF an
adventure seeking country girl, blessed
with a good voice, beautiful face and
m attractive figure, reaching Broadway
from = convent, passing rapidly 10 the
dizzy heights of the carefree life and
passing just as rapidly out Of its sight.
II is less than a year ago when hltty
Joyce, found in an East Side furnlshed
room, told the story OF her triumph
and her rapid decline 10 the lie that
caused her time and again to be taken
in charge by the police. Her only
offence was against herself. her
troubles caused by the world old and
Intellectual method of attempting TO
obliterate the past in the continual
round of overdrinhng.
1t was a warm, sultry night, and
Kitty began talking about her life on
broadway. She had shown a locket she
wore about her neck, containing a
picture of the brewer who was infatu-
ated with her. The lOcket was en-
graved with the initials of both.
The life of the past few years had
left its mark on her face. But the
beauty that made her Broadway repu-
tation was still plain.
Her voice was low and her eyes
seemed to be looking into the past, as
she slowly began to talk. She APP
peared as if she was unaware that any
one listened:

ming away would influence their
thoughts.
Unless they could declare their minds
as innocent as a babes of any preIu-
dicial thoughts for these or other rea-
sons they could not pass into the Jury
box. They must, too, have no acqualnt-
ance with DR.. Flint or the other alien
ists or possess any opinions about any
phase of the matter
For the state the question as to
Jerome was brought up in the form as
to whether his previous activities had
created any sympathy in the talesman' 8
mind in favor of Thaw. Another ire
auent question was whether the tales
man had any friends or relatives IN an
ASYLUM for the insane.
One man. Jesse II. Hecht, Of 712 81.
Nicholas Avenue. was excused when
he said he could not be fair Juror.
because by the time he had heard one
set of experts talk one way and the
other the other way he would not
know which crowd to believe.
In the examination of the last Juror,
william Newman. Mr.. Stanchtield asked
him whether he would be influenced
by any newspaper editorials about the
trial.
81 don't think that any newspaper
in New York will write any editorial
that Thaw is sane or insane. or should
be held or set free while this trial is
going on" said Justice Hendrick.
Mr.. Stanchfeld said he referred to
editorials written in the past. The
Jury as chosen consisted Of:
David Robinson. of SIT West 18th
Street. broker.
Jesse L. Strauss, of 1857 Broadway,
salesman for the Cambridge University
Press.
AdoIph W. Frisch, OF 4s4 St. Nicho-

William c. Muller. a theatrical agent
associated with Cort enterprises, said
he had seen her dance. He did not
qualify as a Juror.
1t was evident that the Thaw case
has lost none of its perennial lure for
the public which has time to spend in
courtrooms. The usual great crowd
TANNED the corridors and Railways OF
the State Courts Building. A special
squad of half a dozen police were on
hand to control them. and inside the
room were half dozen extra court Of
Gcers on duty.

Deputy Leaves Street Cleaning
Department, Declaring He
Was Exonerated and That
Political Enemies Conspired
to Ruin Him.

Michael A. Rofrano, Deputy Street
Cleaning Commissioner, whose name
figured prominently in the trial OF
Rocco Carnivale, which resulted In
the latter's conviction for completely
in the murder of Michael Gaimari,
Foley political lieutenant, resigned Of
fee Yesterday. In his letter to Com
missioner John T. Fetherston Rofra
declared that he had intended to re-
sign last February, but had waited en-
til he was fully exonerated at the
Carnivale trial of any part In the
Gaimari murder plot.
His letter to the commissioner was
in part as follows:
"You will recall our talk last Feb
ruary about my resignation. My per-
sonal obligations to institutions with
which | was connected, to clients
whose affairs demanded my attention,
and 10 my own business matters made
il increasingly difficult for me to give
to my onerous duties as Deputy Com
missioner the time they required. he
records in your department will show
how often | worked At my desk FAR
into the night. Moreover, after those
snowstorms | realized you could be
better served by an engineer than by
lawyer.
at was agreed that | could resign
as soon as | had completed some i'm
portant matters of reorganization you
had committed TO me. Before that
work was finished. however, my name
was most slanderously connected with
gamblers murder in the Second AS
sembly District, the final elimination
of series of charges made against
me from the moment Mayor Mitchell
and yourself appointed me. and there
by incensed my political enemies.
When this last foul charge was made
we both agreed that | could not re-
sign in justice to myself as we'll as
10 the department, until had had an
opportunity to testify and exonerate
myself from any connection with this
murder"
He issued a statement after sending
his letter TO the commissioner in
which he declared that il had been
the open boast in the Second Assembly
District, ever since ne was appointed
year ago, that he would be ruined,
first by one charge and then another.
He said he broke with the Tammany
organization in the Second District in
1912 and had opposed it ever since.
IL cannot be ssndbagged back into
line by any such methods" he said
Commissioner Fetherston announced
that he had accepted Rofrano's res
ignation, to take effect at once.

M'GRATH AIDED BY WIFE

At the hearing before Deputy Com
missioner Lord on the application OF
Matt McGrath. the hammer thrower,
for reinstatement as patrolman yes
terday, Mrs. McGrath. for the hrst
time, told her story of the shooting OF
man in her home that resulted in
McGrath's dismissal. The Deputy Com
missioner reserved decision, but 1t is
thought that McGrath will be rein
stated.
George Walker was the man shot by
McGrath on Christmas Eve, 1910. lie
always charged that Mrs. McGrath,
after he had bought her a drink IN
roadhouse, had asked him to take her
home. McGrath, when tried on charge
of felonious assault. of which he was
acquitted, maintained that Walker was
stranger.
YESTERDAY, Mrs. McGrath denied that
sbe had met Walker in a roadhouse or
that she had asked him to take her
home.

Ideas do not fail him, nor is he ever at
loss for the word he needs. His
manner is that Of the polished, col

The Mlledgeville farm, where 9TH

the rest Of his days, is a long two
storied structure Of red brick, capped
by watch-towers, and surrounded by
a high wire fence. Outside IL is well
kept in appearance. Inside II Is light
and airy. There is no heavy discipline
kept on the men; they talk and laugh
together; they all sleep in barracks
like room, on army cots. They work
in the open from dawn TO twilight.
They are sent TO bed at $3.50 o'clock.
None of the strange odors that assail
one in New York prisons is here. The
place was clean and sweet tonight
after three hundred men had entered,
fresh from their work in the fields.

He rose. and though his face was

me up for two years." he answered to
a last question. "Nor was 1t faith In
God, except, of course, metaphysically;
Just one thing made life possible, still

He paused and his brightest smile
transformed his face. :,
"You see, knew I was innocent"
he announced softly, and slipped from
the room.

The first man 10 be drawn from those
men was also the first man 10 qualify
as a Juror. He was David Robinson,
broker. Of SIT West 18th Street.
Almost the initial questions addressed
to him by Thaw's counsel, and TO every

into the trial the memory of per

case before, but which is now absent
"Do you know William Travers
Jerome ?" was the question. All OF the
candidates for the jury knew him by
name and repute; none OF them knew
him personally.

"Did YOU know Stanford White or
any one connected with him." was an
other reminder of the great, compll-
Gated background behind this trial.
Other questions were as 10 whether
the talesmen had read OF the Thaw
case, whether his acquittal for muir

minds against him, whether his pre-

from Matteawan would prejudice them
