NEW YORK, March 12 - Lining up

Harry K. Thaw, District Attoruey Je
rome began Ly endeavoring to lay the
foundation for the introduction of the
affidavit sald to have Leen made by
Evelyn Nesbit In the office of Abraham

night of his arrest andl wbo declared
his actions seetued fo be those of a ra-
tional man,
Mr. Delian asked one of the oflicers

men crying out ~

The first witness called in rebuttal
by Mr. Jerome was Frederick W. Long:
fellow, one of the Thaw family's at-
torneys. He was questioned about
Evelyn Thaw's alleged affidavit in
which she was sald to have made
charges against Thaw,
Mr. Lougiviiow said he bud never
seen the atidavit until Jerome showed
lim the copy cu the wilness stand. He
el Thomas bad Leen served on Harry
Thaw. Ethel Thomas Is the girl Thaw
is alleged te have tial to a Ledpost aud
whipped The defense again objected
Mr. Delmas quoted at some length
from Mr. Jerome's remarks at the be
glaoning of the trial when Evelyn
Thaw was on the witness stand Mr
ferome at thht time sald that Mrs
Thaw's testimony was permissible oniy
as shewing lhaw's state of wind and
“That Is what the district attorney
sald.” declared Mr. Delmas, “from that
i lofty standpoint of judicial Impartial
We told hitn we would have
of the wife's story.”
“Now you do object” suapped Mr
Jerome
“Yes, because you would not accept
our offer te walve aor right when the
story begun,” retorted Mr. Deimas
Mr. Jerome sald that more than two
years before Evelyn Nesbit told Thaw
the story which Is sald to bave unbal.
anced his mind be knew all about the
evil practices of wen In New York,
“Mri. Thaw herself says she was
told the story of Thaw tying a young
woman to a bedpost and beating her
That Is the story of Ethel Thomas”
declared the district attorney,
Mr. Delmas arose to protest. “I
must serfously object to the learned
district atioruey {estifying in (his case,
and I beseech Bl vot to continue to
give the jury as facts Lis undersiand-
ing of the poluts at issue” sald Del-
mas,
Justice Fitzgerald instructed the jury
to be gulded only by the sworn testi-
mony of witnesses and added that he
sustained the objection of the defense
to the question about Ethel Thomas
on the ground that Lougfellow was
acting as Thaw’s counsel and his deal-
Ings with him were confidential,
Lougfellow wus excused without
cross examination
Mr. Jerome sprung something of a
sensation by calling to the stand Dr
Rudolph Witthaus, a8 chemist and ex-
pert in poisons. The district attoruey
framed & hypothetical question cover
ing Evelyn Neabit's description of ber
night with Stauford White lo the studio
house and asked If thers was any
known polsou which would cause In
sensibility lu two winutes and permit
of the quick recovery testifisl to by
Thaw's wife
Around this vital point
as It did un path through which the
prosecutor could march his forces in
attack upon the truth or falsity of Mrs
Thaw's story, the storm of urguwent
raged for an bour or more Mr. Je
rome pleaded with Justice Fitzgerald
at great length Mr. Delwns ln reply
cited Mr Jerome's own woids at the
beginning of the trial
Mr. Jervine sald be was uot attacklug
the truth of the story. He was calling
for an expert opluion to the effect that

“My question Linlicates the answer 1

Mr. Jerome, “and If I can show there Is
no such polson In the world: If I can
show, in short, tht there was no such

jury te infer whether or not Evelyn
Nesbit told her story to Thaw lu Paris

Justice Fitzgerald bere sustained the
ubjection juterposed by the defense.
Coroner's Physiclan Lehane was re
called by Jerome to lestify us to bow

when shooting
Delmas objected, but Justice Fltager
ald allowed the witness to proceed. He
sald there were powder unrke on the

cuses Mrs Holman of “sacrificing her
