THAW DANGEROUSLY

INSPECTOR OF POLICE
Coaticook Official Swears
He F e care d Prisoner,
Who Threw Beer Bottle
Through Window on Day
He Was Deported.

NEW YORK, July 2.-The first WI.

to prove before Justice Hendrick and
jury that Harry K. Thaw is insane ana
should be returned to Matteawan Asy.

Giroux and Policeman McFadden. Of

In the Thaw case when Thaw escaped
from Matteawan in 1913 and fled into
Canada, gave testimony damaging to the
prisoner They left the stand with their
stories unshaken after a rigid cross.ex-
animation by Thaw's chief counsel. John
B. stanchneId.
GirouX declared Thaw's actions on the
morning he was deported were those Of
a man mentally unbalanced. He told how
Thaw cried, They're kidnapping me"
and then sent a beer bottle crashing.

II thought him dangerously mad" teA-
tilted Giroux IT had to grab him by
the shoulders to quiet him really was
afraid of him"
On cross-eXamination, however, the
police inspector admitted that all of Coat.
icook was excited on the day Thaw was
deported.
Another witness for the State was
James s. Barrett doorman at the Old
TenderloIn police station when Thaw
was taken there after he had shot White
He told of Thaw's actions, but his testi-
mony did not seem to do Thaw's case
much harm. Barrett was unable to re-
member much.
II, as spectators inferred, the object Of
the State in reading miles of former testi-
mony yesterday was to give Thaw a men
tai test and attempt to wear him down
SO that he would give some sign of mental
unrest, the effort failed. The crowd in
the court room gained this impression
when Deputy Attorney General Becker, IN
a sing-song voice without emphasis or In.
Election, read TO the jury volume after
volume of testimony, some of which OBJ
viously had little bearing on the present
hearing.
During the reading Doctors Flint and
Mcdonald and other of the States
alienists kept their eyes glued on Thaw,
but he apparently was the least inter
ested man in the courtroom. Alternately
he read from a weighty volume. THE
Husslte Wars" by the Count LuetzoW,
stared into space or made notes Sew
eral times he crossed the room and
talked with his mother.
Deputy Attorney General Cook today
said he was convinced that Evelyn Nes-
bit Thaw would come to New York and
be ready TO testify against her husband
next Tuesday.
Tho States case will last at least nine
more days There will be no court to-
morrow or Monday.

OLIVER ANNOUNCES HIS
POLITICAL RETIREMENT
Senator From Pittsburgh Says
He Will Relinquish Leader

ton in politics at the earliest day that
he could consistently do So, regardless OF
Incidental conditions or the particular
campaign that might be on. The time
has now arrived And the Senator de-
sires 1t to be made known that he will
no longer accept or assume responsibility
for the formation of tickets, the conduct
of administrations or the control and di-
rectton of party affairs.
For Is years II has been his good
fortune, If not to dominate In Repub-

enjoy the confidence OF many loyal lieu
tenants and party men, and to have the
cordial cooperation OF thousands Of ex-
cellent citizens in all walks Of life. But
he feels that the requirements OF con-
tinued relation with the stress of poll
tics are necessarily and unavoldably of
such nature that, at the age Of 81
and with two years OF arduous duties still
ahead of him in the Senate, he is en-
titled to be relieved from the position
OF fle -eader and to take a place in the
ranks.
Senator oliver wishes It understood
therefore, that hereafter his part IN
politics will be confined TO that which
properly pertains to the duties and re
sponsibilities OF citizen, taxpayer and
business man interested in the welfare of
his city, his county, his State and his
country, as distinguished from problems
that are essentially of the party and its

MAYORS SIGNATURE
ON TRANSIT ORDINANCES

Continued from Page One
before he left for his summer home in
the Poconos Director Taylor came to
Mayor Blankenburg's Office this morning
to be there when the ordinances came
from Councils.
Both the Mayor and Director Taylor
waited until the Mayors train was about
to leave Councils, however, without any
other apparent intention than that of
harassing the Mayor, did not send down
the ordinances prior to his departure,
which will mean that they will have to
be sent to his summer home. This, how
ever, will occasion no delay, Director
Taylor said
Director Taylor will make prompt appll-
cation to the Public Service Commission
Of Pennsylvania for its certificate of pub
lie convenience to authorize the begin
ming Of both projects.
TAYLOR EXPRESSES THANKS.
Immediately after the final passage of
all transit legislation yesterday Director
Taylor issued a formal statement ex-
pressing satisfaction that the fight final-
ly was won and thanking all that had
co-operated. Briefly he outlined the pro-
cedure necessary before the workmen
may begin to make the dirt fly.
According to his estimates. If Councils
follow their action of yesterday by ap-
propriating the money next year as 1t is
needed, the entire high-speed project can
be completed within the next three years
The entire Broad street structure, from
League Island to Olney avenue, can be
made ready for operation. three years
from the date the work is begun, and the
FranlStord elevated road can be completed
within two years. The subway delivery
loop in the central business section can
be completed within the three years, If
Councils make provision for that work
promptly next fall.
SILENT AS TO P. r. t.
No mention was made in Director Tay-
lor's statement of the steps to be taken
to obtain the cooperation of the Phlla-
delphia Rapid Transit Company in the
program. Chestnut street subway to
connect with the Frankford elevated was
suggested as a possibility in the event of
the failure Of the P. r. T. to cooperate.
Upon this consideration will depend the
location of the southern terminus of the
Frankford L." With the city and the
transit company working together, the
Frankford line will join the Market street
subway.

The son was learning the printing
business in the Argus office and while
helping to lace a belt, was drawn into
the shafting and his arm crushed off.
