OBSTACLE IN
THORN TRIAL
Attorneys Howe and Moss
Are Confused by the
Prosecution.
AN UNEXPECTED REST
What Has Been Considered a
Clever Move.
Mrs. Nnck's Scrvicos n a Witness Arc
Not Required nt the Present Trial.
Ilnrber John t.'olha Repents His
StoryUetcotivc Sullivan's Evl-(Icncc-Tlic
Defense Is Obliged to
Ask for an Adjournment.
New York, Nov. 28. Lawyers Howo
and Moss, who have diligently defend
ed Martin Thorn, mot today with a
serious and unluoki-d for obstacle,
when, after a brief adjournment,
District Attorney Youngs Informed the.
court that the people rested their case.
It was generally expected that Mrs.
Mack would be put on the stand to
reiterate her confession, and the law
yers who have been assigned to look
after Thoin's Interests tnought she
would repeat her statement of two
weeks ago.
"This seems a clever move mi the
Hart of the prosecution," saUl Mr.
Howe, " but I am more than pnitlvo
that when we Introduce our evidence
the Jury will acquit my client of the
crime with which he Is charged. "
Later In the afternoon District
Attorney Youngs said ho was not
prepared to say whether Mrs. Nark,
who had made such a famous scene
In the tlrst trial in her confession,
would be produced or not. The case
as far as the district attorney's opln.
ion went, was fully proved without
the woman's testimony. Water on,
however, one of Mr. Youngs' advisers
said that In the ense the rt-rense put
Martin Thorn on the stand the pro
secution would certainly produce Mrs.
Nack in rebuttal.
The evldenco so far adduced today
by the prosecution showed .t possible
Inclination on the defendant's part to
get rid of his enemy, Guldensuppe.
Each was the admirer of Mrs, Nack,
and it was proved that they had a
serious row last March. Fiom current
reiKirt, Guldensuppe had evidently
very much the better of the argument
when It came to fisticuffs. Thorn con
fessed later that he had discharged a
revolver accidentally, but a few min
utes afterwards told another friend
of his that he shot at Guldensuppe,
but missed his mark. All these things
were brought before the Jury and when
it was about time to renew the sensa
tional story of Mrs. Nack, 'the pro
secution, after it whispered conversa.
tion, informed the court that the pto
plo had rested their case.
Thorn was less surprised than his
lawyers when this statement was made
by Mr. Youngs. Thorn took In the sit
uation at a glance and bent forward in
earnest conversation with his lawyers.
Mr. Howe, for the second time during
the trial of his client, nppealed to the
court for time. "I shall, with your
honor's permission," said he, "try to
get through with my defense on Mon
ray, but if it should exceed that time
I am sure I can get in all my evidence
In a couple of hours on Tuesday."
Justice Maddox, after a conference
with both lawyers, decided to post
pone further consideration of the case
until Monday morning nt 9.S0 oclock.
The examination of the barber, Keohne,
was resumed today. He admitted that
the stllletto which he had shown to
Thorn had a poisoned point. Then he
said he only kept It bh an ornament,
having received It as a gift from his
brother.
Bartender Kdwnrd Speck, swore that
on Tuesday, June 29, Thorn had cxhlh.
Ited a watch and money In a saloon on
East Thirty-fourth street, saying, "this
Is what I got out of my carriage ride
last Saturday."
GOTHA'S TESTIMONY.
Other testimony of a minor charac
ter was Introduced and then John
Gotha, tho barber, to whom Thorn Is
said to havo confessed, was called. Ho
said that on Monday. July 5, last,
Thorn went Into the barber shop nt
One Hundred and Thirty-fifth street
and Eighth avenue, where the witness
was employed, and had his hair cut
and moustache cut off. Thorn asked
him to meet him that afternoon, nnd ho
reluctantly agreed. They met In a sa
locn that nfternon and had some beer.
After a few minutes Thorn began to
epeak of the murder, and finally sajd
he committed It.
Thorn told him that he went to the
cottage In Woodslde early on Friday,
June 23, and brought his pistol with
him. He Ksted It to see If It worked
all right, and fired a couple of shots
out of It. Mrs. Nack and Guldensuppe
arrived at the house shortly aftr
10 o'clock that morning. The woman
went Into the yard and Guldensuppe
went up stair where Thorn was wait
ing for him, with his shoes off. Thorn
shot Guldensuppe In the head, and
went down stairs and told Mrs. Nack
It was all over. Ho told her to go
back to New York and return about 5
o'clock In the evening, when every
thing would be "fixed up."
Thorn also told how he cut the body
up, and said that In tho separation of
the parts he used a saw, .Mrs. Nack
had bought tho oilcloth In Astoria, but
Thorn said sho made n botch of It,
Thorn bought the cheese cloth In a
store on Second avenue, New York.
Tho prisoner told him that he bought
some plaster of parls on the morning
of the murder, and, after he had en
cased the head in It he threw the
bundle Into the river.
The witness then told of the disposi
tion of tho other parts of the body, us
Thorn had described to him.
Gotha was cross-examined by Mr.
Howe. The witness admitted that ho
had done no work since tnaklncr his
disclosures to the police: he had been
supplied with money by District At
torney Olcott and police officers. He
denied that he had been an inmate ot
an asylum for Inebriates. The witness
also testified that Thorn told htm Mrs.
Nack had helped him to cut up the
body of Guldensuppe. Mr. Howe tried
In various ways to trip up the wit
ness, but Gotlia adhered to every state
ment he made.
Herman Well, who keeps a saloon at
the coiner of One Hundred and Thirty
second street and Eighth avenue, tes
tified that Thorn and Gotha called at
his saloon a little after 1 o'clock on
Monday, July C, and they sat drinking
and conversing until near G o'clock
that evening.
Dennis Sullivan, one of the Queens
county detectives, told of his visit to
the Woodslde cottage In August last.
A piece of the surbase, which was
taken from the room In which Gulden
suppe Is supposed to have been killed,
was shown to the witness, and he Iden
tify It. There was a bullet hole In It.
The witness also identified two bullets
that wore found In the bathroom and
adjoining room.
Sergeant AVIlllam E. Petty, the In
structor and director of revolver prac
tice In the New Yoik police force, tes
tified that the bullets found In the
Woodslde cottage corresponded with!
bullets, which were In the cartridges
In the revolver found on Thorn when
he was arrested. On cross-examination
witness admitted that the pistol found
in Mis. Nnck's apartments would carry
a similar bullet.
Detective Thomas O. Connell. who is
h, practical plumber, told of the find
ing of piaster of parls In the cottngo at
Woodslde on July i. He also said that
there was some discolored water In the
trap on the lower floor, from which' an
offensive odor arose.
A brief recess was taken at about
half-past :i o'clock. Court reconvened
nt .1.13 o'clock. District Attorney
Youngs addressed the court, and said
that "after a consultation of counsel,
the i oople have decided to rent thdr
tnse right now."
This was a surprise to the defend
ant's lawyers as well to the majority of
those In the court loom. Mr. Howe
strted that as Mrs. Nack was going to
be produced he was not prepared to
open the defens, this evening. He
stated, however, that ho would be
reidy to go on next Monday and prob
ably would finish very early on Tues
day. Court was then adjourned until 9.30
on Monday morning.

ROARING TIME AT
THE REICHSRATH
The Leftists nod the Rightists Raise
Another Row.
INSULTS FOR DR. ADRAIIAMOVICS
Tho President oftlio Body Is Greeted
by n Stoim of Abuse Upon Each
Appearance Dr. Wolll Plows n
Whistle Tho Polico Kept Uasy
Sepcratiug Combatants. A Number
ot Members Sutpondcd.
Vienna, Nov. 26. The turbulence In
tho Relchsrath continued today nnd a
body ot police was called In to keep
order, Upon the entrance of Presi
dent Abrahamovlcs the Leftists rose In
a body and the tumult began. Herr
Berner, a Social Democrat, rushed to
ward the president, but the house at
tendants protecting the chair Intercept
ed him nnd a lively fist light followed.
Herr Resel. another Social Democrat,
Jumped upon the ministerial bench,
reached tho president's desk, nnd de
stroyed the papers lying there. Al
though the chnlr has been surrounded
with a wooden fence, the president was
obliged to flee. Berner was eventually
from the house.
Meantime the police had arrived.
They wore compelled to eject by main
force tho Social Democrats who still
surrounded tho presidential platform.
While the deputies wero lighting, a
row occurred In the second gallery. At
length all the lobbies were filled with
police, the building guarded by a large
force, the gates closed and the ses
sion suspended.
When the hotihe reassembled this af
ternoon, the reappearance of President
Abrahnmovlcs was greeted by a storm
of abuse, the slamming of desk lids,
whistling, etc. He repeatedly tried to
address the Leftists, but his voice was
inaudible amid the uproar, tho only
articulate sounds distinguishable being
cries from the Leftists of "out with the
police."
Dr. Wolff, the German Nationalist
leader, as yesterday, contributed prom
inently to the pandemonium. Ppon
this occnslon he kept on blowing a
shrill whistle. Herr Resel. the Social
Democrat deputy, also indulged in
shrill whistling.
In tho midst or this uproar, President
Abrahamovlcs opened the sitting and
twice called Dr. Wolff to order. As
this had no effect upon the turbulent
German Nationalist, tho piesidont hus
pended nlm for three Killing?.
LEFTISTS IN A Fl'RY.
So soon as the Leftists realized what
had occurred, they burst out Into n
itate of unbridled fury, shrieking In
sults at Dr. Abrahamovlcs. Herr Das
zynskt, a Socialist, deputy, yelled:
"You. ought to be. In Jail!"
. Other infuriated deputleu shouted all
kinds of Invectives, but Individual con
tributions to the uproar were Indistin
guishable amid the general howling
from ail parts of the house.
In snite of this disgraceful scene nnd
the tnsulla hurled at him, President
Abrahamovlcs! was apparently unmov
ed, but when he recognized that It was
useless to make anv further attempt
to transact business he quietly siike a
few words to a oollco officer near him
nnd suspended the sitting amid deaf
ening nnd vociferous cries cf shame
from the Leftists and applause from
the Rightists.
The substance of the words spoken to
the police officer by President Abra
hamovlcs soon became apparent for nn
officer and four policemen removed Dr.
Wolff from the house by force, In spite
of considerable physical opposition up
on the part of his clique.
When the president again re-entered
the house ho was once more greeted
with a shower of opprobrious epithets,
Including cries ot "criminal," "traitor,"
"get out."
After withstanding this storm for a
period, the president again left tho
house, but only for a moment, and on
his return he Instructed the police to
withdraw, declaring nmld a tremen
dous uproar:
"I entrust myself to your care. Do
ns you please. But, remember this Is
no personal question. The honor of
your chair Is at stake."
DASZYNSKI SUSPENDED.
Tho president then called upon
Count Stuergkh to speak, but the
tumult continued, and the president
suspended Herr Daszynskl, the Socia
list deputy, who had some 'time previ
ously shouted that the president
should bo in jail, for three sittings.
When Herr Daszynskl refused to leave
tho house, the president summond tho
police and the turbulent deputy was
ejected from the building.
Subsequently the president suspend
ed Herren, Schoenerer, Srlener, Relger,
Resel, Kosaklewlcz, Schrammel, Wel
ler, Llngr, Verkauf, Hybes, and Bener.
The scene throughout the sitting
afterwurd were as disorderly as those
of the earlier parts of the day and
the house finally adjourned until to
morrow. Large crowds gathered this evening
about the University buildings and the
parliament houses, owing to an. an
nouncement that the students Intend.
ed to make a demonstration. This,
however, was prevented by the police,
who promptly dispersed the gather
ings. More than forty arests were
made. There was no violent resistance.
Thus far order has been preserved.
THE STUDENTS APPEAR.
After 9 o'clock this evening tho as
pect of the streets became more
threatening. A crowd' of ten thous
and, including a very large number of
students, assembled and threatened
the government with revolution nnd
Count Badenl, the premier, with the
guillotine. An attempt was mado to
attack Count Badent's house.
Tho police repeatedly charged tho
crowd but refrained from using arms,
the students resisted with sticks. Ono
polico Inspector was severely Injured
by a kick from a horse; another was
thrown from his horse and so badly
hurt that It was necessary to remove
him to tho hospital. A few students
and citizens received slight injuries.
Not until nearly 11 o'clock was quiet

This evening there was nn address
by Bev. Dr. I. A. Lansing, pastor of

of Scranton. T,he dlscourso was pro
ceded by a song sorvlco conducted by
J. M. Chance, music director of the
Scranton association, and who will
have charge ot the music at each ses
sion. DR. LANSING'S ADDRESS.
"How to Do It" was the subject of
Dr. Lansing's addres-s. His dlscourso
occupied nearly an hour and Its thought
was "baaed upon tho lesson taught by
Edison's recent and greatest accom
plishment, separating Iron dust from
rock.. Dr. Lansing said:
"In doing tho work tho worker needs
to be alert, open-eyed, sympathetic,
that ho may seo the actual facts nnd
conditions ho Is to meet Tho purpose
of tho Christian assoclitlon is evi
dently to be practical, to seo and know
things an they aro and to better them.
Ono of the greatest of modern acnieve
ments is Edison's magnetlo separator
as used in Edison, N. J., for taking
magnetic iron front rock. Sixteen
years ago Edison while walking on a
Long Island beach observed a blade
sand. Examining it carefully he found
It was colored by particles of iron
which could be extracted with, a mag
nnt. First, It was Edison's alertness;
second, his sympathy, which made his
great accomplishment probable, Hh
was untiring and want3d to relievo the
condition of things which made It dlfll
cult for Eastern Iron furnaces to pe-.
plg-lrcn, except from a distance, and
which put them at a disadvantage In
competing with foreign furnaces.
"A Christian worker needs to luxvi
his eyes open to the actual condition
of society and to be full of human
sympathy for the condition of men and,
to undertake their roller.
MUST PRESERVE HUMANITY.
The ChrlHtlan worker must pruservo
humanity from spiritual point of view,
and the politician sees men from thr
point of view ot voters, tho commercial
man from tho point of view of creatoi.s
and consumers, the educator from tho
point of view of the Intellectual life.
The Christian worker Is to look nt a,
man Indefinitely, specifically, us a spir
itual being. This I regard n funda
mental of the work.
"Edison devised the mngnetlc needle,
the electric eye, which detects tho de
posits of iron. With lt aid he caused
a survey to be made from Canada to
North Carolina along a route twenty
five miles wide. From tho survey main
were made showing the deposits of Iron
throughout that vast territory, Tho
accurracy of the ey was remarkable.
It Illustrates that, looked at with spir
itual vision, men uie found out by
Christian workers, This Is not dono by
viewing men from social, munetury or
Intellectual standpoints. It Is because
men do not seo with Hplrltual ey s
that churches decoy. The raw matei
lal for churches Is alwajs In abund
ance. Men are the material. Human
ity cannot be regarded from any ex
cept the standpoint of Christ.
"A worker must work despite oppo
sition. He must resolve, resolvo pa
tiently to eventually achieve huccoss,
Others will come to his aid and oppo
sition will bo overcome." Again Dr.
Lansing referred to Edison's rooeno
work. Eight years ago he began it atuU
resolved, if necessary, o do vote all ho
possessed, hut tlmo and his great tal-
