MRS. TATUM AGAIN
UPHELD BY COURT
Husbands Motion for Re-
trial of His Divorce
Suit Denied.

Justice Crane, OF the Kings County
Supreme Court, denied yesterday the
application OF John c. Tstum, the
wealthy cotton broker, of Great Neck,
Long Island. Tor new trial Of his d.
vorce against Mrs. Mary Jane Tstum.
The court held that the verdict in the
first trial was in accord with the evil
dence
"Mrs. Tatum and her husband we're
living in separate hotels in New York
City." wrote Justice Crane. "They we're
apparently on friendly terms, and no
reason appears or is given why this
separation should be. He went his way
and she hers by mutual consent and
without enlargement. Mrs. Tatum met
Ottman the corespondent) at Coney
Island. dined with him in New York,
was visited by him at night in her
apartment, for which he paid in whole
or in part for few weeks or months.
Later she rented a house at Roslyn,
where she was visited at week-ends by
Ottman. There is no evidence OF IA
miliarity of conduct, such as huggng
and kissing. nor is there any evidence
Of the use of terms of endearmeut or Of
love and affection. All these are gen
orally found in cases where wrong
doing is established by circumstantial
evidence.
"Ottman went to Nova Scotia upon
the same steamer with Mrs. Taturn, and
he was rigidly cross-examined as TO
his actions on the boat. Mrs. Tatum
was. however. accompanied by Miss
Chalmers. young woman over sixteen
years. concededly friendly to Mr..
Tatum. She was IL. the courtroom dur
ing the trial and the cross-eXamina-
ton of Ottman. She was not called by
the plaintiff to contradict the core
spondent This omission was decidedly
marked in view of the inference which
the jury was asked TO draw TO the eff
feet that Ottman and Mrs. Tatum had
been unduly familiar on this trip"
Mrs. Tatum was In happy frame Of
mind yesterday when she learned that
Justice Crane had decided in her favor.
"Now hope this whole affair is
closed" she said at J n home, in Great
Neck. 81 felt confident that the court
would deny the motion for new trial.
The jury heard all the mean things said
against me, and il eXonerated me.

arguments were heated. What the ma
ture of the differences was, could not
be learned.
Ida Walters. the woman accused OF

Rogers's Bond Withdrawn.

The National Surety Company, which
furnished the bond on which Rogers
was released last week, sprung a sur
prise yesterday noon, by surrenderng
the prisoner TO the court, and cancel
ling his bond. The only reason given
by the company for the action was that
the notoriety Of the case was not de-
sirable.
This statement was not very popu-
lar solution OF the mystery, in the
vicinity Of The Bronx County court
house, and the general opinion was that
either the security given for the bond
was not acceptable, or that the com
pany feared Rogers might vanish. The
last possibility was ridiculed by NJ. l..
Jacobs. Rogers's law partner.
The indemnity bond was finally
taken up By the Southwestern Surety
Company, and after appearing before
Justice Brady, of the Supreme Court.
the lawyer was released from custody
once more, at 1 O'Clock in the after
noon. Following the court proceedings,
he consented to pose for a photograph.
This picture was taken in the grand
Jury room, and Rogers faced the
cameras squarely while fashlight
was set Off.

been adjudicated insane. Why go
through all this somewhat complex
machinery when II has been estab-
lished under the law that he is IN
ssne?"
at makes no difference whether he
has been sdjudicated insane or not
Mr.. Stanchfeld said "The law gives
him the ultimate right of trial by jury
on the question of his sanity. Isn't
that better than this continual round
Of writs Of habeas corpus? We want
jury trial of Mr.. Thaw's mental
condition
Then came Mr.. Jerome with the con
tention that the statute cited by Mr..
Stanchfeld did not apply. II was sim
ply, he held. for the purpose OF de-
termining whether persons arrested
for misdemeanors were mentally com
petent to stand trial, and could not be
used for reviewing previous adJudi-
cation Of insanity.
The facts Of the case are that this
defendant was committed 10 Mattea-
wan by Justice Bowling as being dan
cerouslv insane" went on Mr.. Jerome.
"The procedure cited would not get
rid Of that commitment. There arc
only two ways in which that can be
done. One is for the superintendent
of Matteawan to certify that Thaw
has recovered his sanity. The other
is BY suing out a writ Of haDeas
corpus. This has been tried three
times and has failed.

times and has failed.
Back TO Matteawan Anyhow.
Mr.. Jerome then expounded the
theory on which the present prosecu-
ton is to be pressed. Section llZO
Of the penal law provides that
person cannot be tried, sentenced or
uunished for a crime while IN a state
of insanity.
"But the statute also provides SAID
Mr.. Jerome. "that insanity is a defence
only when il is shown that, at the time
OF committing the alleged criminal act
the defendant was laboring under such
a defect OF reason as not TO know tne
nature and quality of his act He
arrued that Thaw did know the ma
ture Of his. when plotting and carry.
inc out his escape The outcome or
the present trial, Mr. Jerome continued
would also be without effect on me
original commitment Of Thaw TO Mat
teswan. ,,..;.
,ion. the commitment still stands" ne
said. of acquitted, he will be seized
and returned TO Mstteswsn. II con-
victed. then there will be the question
Of the advisability OF suspending sen
tence. and taking Thsw back TO Mattes-
wan under the original commitment
Then Mr.. Jerome made a request,
which brought all Thaw's counsel 70
their feet.
"Tbe Attorney Generals Office con
sidors that the proper place for TINS
man il Matteawan," he said, "and ] ask
that he be returned there until ne Is
brought to trial for conspiracy
Thaw's counsel saw IN this applica-
tion confirmation Of their contention
that the conspiracy charge had been
used simply as a preteXt before the
United States Supreme Court TO get an
insane man from one state 20 another.
Respect for the mandate of the Su-
preme Court demands that the proce-
dure Of the criminal law be followed
said Morgan J. O'Brien, OF counsel for
Thaw. "The question of this mans
mental condition is the main issue, and
If he is found to be sane no judge will
have the courage 10 send him back TO
Matteawan.'
"Mr. Jerome has asserted that he in
tends to keep faith with the Supreme
Court Of the United States, and the
Attorney General Of the state has said
THAT orderly procedure shall be FOL
lowed. and that Thaw shall not be rail
roaded TO Matteawan." said Mr.. Stanch-
field. "But Mr. Jerome language this
morning is in direct defiance 10 the Ian
guage Of the chief who employs him.
Do YOU think if he had told the Su-
preme Court that this trial was TO be
a farce the decision sending Thaw back
here would have been gwen
eve are prepared 70 keep full faith
with the Supreme Court" said Mr..
Jerome. 1--WE feel that Thaw must be
mt on trial for conspiracy, but we feel
That Matteawan is the proper place for
his keeping. and that he should be kept
there until he comes TO trial.
Court Decides Tomorrow.
