ThAW WILL TESTIFY
 IN HIS OWN BEHALF
Slayer Of Stanford White to TcIl Of Escape from NatttaWan

s4 New York, March 1O.-Each of the witnesses placed upon the stand apday by the state in its effort to prove it's case against Harry k. Thaw and five co-defendants on trial charged with conspiracy was, upon cross asked questions designed to indicate to the jury that the slayer of Stanford White was of sound mind at the time of his escape. Although none of the witnesses was asked directly whether he considered ThaW sane, each was questioned close ly about Thaw's personal appearance, has manner of discussing current topics and of occupying his spare mo- ments ] The witnesses, most of them en- ployes at the hospital, agreed that 1naW was always neatly dressed, that he never was violent and that he read many text books on various sub jects and current novels.
 The state was expected to complete its case late today.
 TIlaw Has Bad Cold.
 Thaw had a stiff neck and bad cold when he came into court today It became known that his attorneys
 
 have their client taken to Bellevue hospital from the Tombs. Such a move was opposed by the prosecution, and Justice Page decided that TnaW could secure what medical attention he needed in the Tombs.
 The first witness today was Howard Barnum, gate keeper at MatteaWan. Harnum told of opening the gate to admit a milkman. He described rhaw's actions just previous to that, and said when, the wagon entered Thaw managed to get on the side farthest from the witness. Barnum's story of now Thaw dashed through the gate and jumped into an automo- bile outside which sped away in a cloud of dust was identical with the one he told the police on the day Thaw fled.
 3 Thaw will take the witness stand in his own behalf, his attorneys an nounced today.

CHANCE IN ELECTION
 RULES IS DESIRED
Republican Town Committee Will
 Consider Amendments.

R. R. Healey, chairman of the re- publican town committee, has called a meeting for Monday evening of next week to consider two amendments to the primary election rules regulating the method of nominating candidates for the republican party in the city. The first is an amendment to Sec tion II, which will enable a voter to sign petitions for as many men as he may vote for on election day. He will for instance, be able to sign petit tions of two representatives from this city.
 The present ruling is as follows
 "No elector shall sign the petition of more than one candidate for the sam 0 elective office, but if it should appear that one or more voters had signed petitions of more than one candidate for the same office then, upon notice to that effect from the chairman of the republican town committee, such candidate on candidates are to have twenty-four hours additional within which time to obtain the required number of names and upon failure to do so his name shall not go upon the primary ballot.''
 The second is an amendment to SeCtlOn l6, and aims to eliminate the necessity of complete election ma chine where there is no contest. It is proposed to change the ruling so that the town committee may declare Q man elected upon presentation of his petition in wards where there is no contest.
 For instance. an alderman and two councilmen will be elected from the fifth ward. If petitions are received for each of these offices and no com~ petition is made, the town committee will declare the petitioners elected.
 A great saving of money will be made possible by this method. The ruling at present provides for checker, a ballot box tender, bal lot tender. and four counters for each ward at from s4 to s5 a day.
 ''The idea of spending a lot of money for polling expenses when no election is necessary" said MT. Healey today, 'is foolish.'
 It is necessary that five members out of the six be present to pass the amendments.
 The primaries will be held on April 9 and will be open, as usual, from D. m until D. m. The rules pro- vide for handing in the petitions five days previous to the primaries. As this day falls on Sunday this year, the petitions must be in by o'clock Saturday evening, April 3.

 The correct name of the family is Montvidas, but in this country it is changed to Antonovas. The socialist speaker who in the past has visited Waterbury is now in Chicago. studying it is believed, in some college of med 1cine.
 While in Brooklyn, Moras visited many saloons and stores and met many of his countrymen. With each : one to whom he talked he had a diff ferent birthplace and, according to many his statements were very con- tradictory, and no two were alike.

 The Lithuanian became friendly with Moras and the two went out to- gether occasionally, and attended a theater or dance. Moras told the boarder that he always got his mail at the post office. Although he claimed to be searching for a barber shop which he might purchase, Moras never exhibited any more money than some silver.
