lifetime, Mr. Pittman stated that he
never worked on such thing but be-

which an aeroplane could make its way

Practically realizing his feat before
his death, Attorney Arnold declares
that the machine will make the dead

New York, Jan. 27.-William Trav.
ers Jerome, who is generally given
credit for having kept Harry Thaw
Under lock and key since Stanford
White was shot to death nine years
ago, severed his connection with the
case at the request of Attorney Gen.
crai Woodbury..
The following telegram from Mr..
Woodbury. settled the matter:
"You and Mr.. Kennedy are to be
graduated upon the successful cul-
mination of your efforts for the re-
turn of Harry X. Thaw to the rightful
jurisdiction of the courts of this state.
"In this accomplishment you have
fulfilled the purpose of your dcsigna-
ton as a special deputy attorney gen.
eral. The case will now be handled
By the attorney generals Office
through Deputies Franklin Kennedy
and Frank A. Cook, assisted by the
district attorney of New York city,
where the indictment against Thaw
was found.

Thaw's Side Is Pleased.
Mr.. Jerome seemed relieved from
the responsibility. He would net,
however, be quoted regarding the mat
teI. While all was apparent serenity
on the states side Of the case, such
was not the appearance from counsel
for Thaw or from Thaw himself. The
fact that Mr.. Jerome had retired from
the case was enough in itself to Put
new hope into Thaw. And it did He
