THAW'S CHIEF ALIENIST CONCLUDES TESTIMONY Proves Match for Jerome in Wit and Readiness N of Answer MRS. WM. THAW NEXT District Attorney Is at Sea as to Latitude in Rebuttal NEW TORK. March 4. — A long stride forward In the trial of Harry K. Thaw was taken today when District Attor- ney Jerome announced that his ex- haustive cross-examination of Dr. Brit- ton D. Evans, one of the alienists for the defense, had been concluded. Dr. Evans had been under fire since Wednesday morning last. . He was Im- mediately succeeded on the stand by Dr. Charles G. Wagner of Binghamton. N. V., who accompanied Dr. Evans on most of his visits to Thaw in the Tombs. Jerome indicated that he may conclude with Dr. Wagner tomorrow. Mrs. William Thaw is expected to he the next witness. With 'Mrs. Thaw's testimony in, the defense practically will have completed its rase and it is likely that the State's case in rebuttaJ may be begun before the end of the week. District Attorney Jerome complained today. In soekinp a broad interpretation of the rules of evidence by Justice Fitzgerald, that if he should ca.ll any of the defense's alienists In rebuttal they might refuse, on the ground of professional privilege, to answer any questions put to them. It is not yet exactly clear to the lay mind to what extent the District Attorney can go in disproving Mrs. Evelyn Thau's testimony. He has ad- mitted that even if he could show Stan- ford White was out of the country at the time of tlie alleged experience with Kvelyn Nesbit In the Twenty-fourth- street studio he would not be allowed to disprove her statements on the ground that Jt would be a collateral act. It appears, however, that the prosecutor may call any one to contra- dict Mrs. Thaw in cases •where she said ! *he made certain statements to a third party. .In this connection Jerome has indicated that he will call Howard Nes- bit to testify that his sister told him \u25a0Thaw hs<i treated her cruelly because she would not tell lies about Stanford White. Dr. Evans left th«» witness stand to- day, subject to recall for redirect *>x- Rmination. Tlie witness protected The interests of the defense quite keenly! throughout his cross-examination and at all times appeared a match for the District Attorney. Dr. Evans today, however, admitted that Thaw had an Insane knowledge of what he was do- ing in Maflison Square Roof Garden the night he shot and killed Stafford • In explaining Thaw's actions subse- quent to the shooting. Dr. Evans de- clared that as soon as the defendant , ehot White the brain storm subsided and his sense? began to reorganize themselves, so that the man knew quite rroll what he was about. H*also knew he was attacking Stanford White when h« sliot. Dr. Evans admitted, but the knowing:* was that of an insane man. Dr. Wagner also declared that Thaw Tiad Irrational knowledge of what was transpiring on the roof garden. Dr. Wagner <-reat^d a stir in court by using the present tr-nse In responding to a question by District Attorney Jerome as to what form of insanity Thaw "has or had." Dr. Wagner" declared Thaw "is suffering" from symptoms which lead toward a melancholy state and a stste of dementia pra^f-ox. Dr. Wagner declared Thaw's condition of mind a.t the time* of the shooting was the re- sult of one of the Insanities of adoles- cence. The District Attorney continued his somewhat puzzling tactics. His ques- tioning of Dr. Evans Feem^d to have the purpose of showing that Thaw never was insane 'to the extent con- templated by the New York criminal statutes. Again with Dr. Wagner he pointed toward the same end and at one tjrne and another seemed desirous of having Dr. Wagner admit that Thaw was suffering from forms of insanity which might nr»t be curable. Dr. Wagner was on the stand when court adjourned. THAW GROWS INTERESTED ' . For FlrM Time Pay* HfH to Alienist on Wltnrna Stand NEW TORK. March 4. — The formali- ties of 'postponing the March terra of th* criminal bench of the Supreme Court had to be gone through this morning before the trial of Harry Thaw was resumed.

Tb# latter nepmwj dPßlrooa of avoiding the conversation, and drew hark nereral time* with tolerant coda if bla head. The defendant, however, was earnest, and would not be denied. He continued to talk for some minutes. Then be «at tiack and Um~ tened to the first question addressed by District Attorney Jerome to r>r. Eran*. It war the. first time he had paid any atten- tion to the witness since be took the stand. Tnaw did not listen long, however, but turned, to Daniel O'Beilly. and began to talk rapidly to him. In resuming bla cross^xsmtnstion of Dr. Evans Jerome asked: '•Doctor, reverting to the nirht of the shoot- 1 ing of Stanford White, does the fact that the defendant walked deliberately away without *xcltei&rat after the ebootinjr appear to yojz to be aa important {act In determining whether or oot the defendant was Insane T**, "Ye*; It leads me to believe be was of nn- nonnd mmd — that when telcea la connection with tbe other Incident »," The fact that at lie time Thaw's step was fclow and measured and his manner somewhat dramatic, that be n>aaife*ted no agitation, and that be walked away without any effort to escape, takes In conaectlon with the other facts. Indicated to th* witness that be did not know he bad done anything wrong, that he did not think he should shrink from his fellow- men or from the officers of th* law. "Then hia attitude waa one of sttitfaction with bis deed?" "I would hardly go so far as that.** "When be walked toward bis wife did he know in which direction be was going V. "In view of the fact that be waJked toward bis wife, it seems to me that be did." "Tbe fact." said Jerome, "tbat Thaw told tbe fireman who seized him, 'be mined my wife,* does tbat Indicate to you tbat this defendant knew he had killed Stanford White?" "It Indicated to me tbat this one thought which had weighed down npon him. bad been devouring his nonl. was still with him. This Idea of bis wife being mined by Stanford White was still his foremost thought." "Wbat mental prfyeßs in the defendant is conveyed to your mind by bis stating upon the roof garden after bis arrest when told by the elevator man that an officer had been sent for- •l've got to go down pome time; you mUrht as well take me down in the elevator now I don't want to cause any annoyance.' "• "As to whether the man was sane or In- mb«." replied Dr. Evans, "the remark convey, nothing. It may elmply have meant that there was a crowd at the elevator, ajid he did not want to annoy anybody by obstructing tbe way *' GAME IS ALASKA BUI for Its Protection Brlam Out Some Facetious Remark* WASHINGTON.

C. Van Fleet to the Federal Bench WASHINGTON. March 4.— lf there had been an executive session of the Senate today It is probable that W. C. Van Fleet would now be a United States District Judge for the Northern Dis- trict of California. The judg:e*hip bill was signed by the President this morn- ing and it is understood that Van Fleet's nomination was made out ready for transmission to the Senate when it was learned that there would not be an executive session. The President is expected to appoint Van Fleet within a few days, and his name will be presented Uo the Senate for confirmation next December. RAILWAY EMPLOYES' BILL Srnate Ajcrera to Confrrvnc* Report on BUI Limitline Hour* WASHINGTON, March 4. — The Sen- ate today agreed to the conference report on the bill limiting the hours of service of railway employes) as apxeed upon by the conference last nighf. The House also agreed to tha conferees' report, and In both houses the adoption was by unanimous vote. The agreement limits the daily service of railway telegraphers to nine hours, with a provision that the requirement may be extended as to any particular case when a proper showing is made to the Interstate Commerce Commlß- tlon. . MEDALS ARE PRESENTED TO THREE SEA HEROES "It.affords me great pleasure to offer a resolution which expresses the experi- ence I have had and I am quite- sure voices the sentiment of every Senator in this chamber, bearing testimony to the courtesy, the fairness and the abil- ity with which our presiding officer has discharged the- functions of his office." The resolution" tendered "the thanks of the Senate to Vice President Fair- banks for the dignified. Impartial and courteous manner in which he has pre- sided over the Senate's deliberations during the present session." The reso- lution, was unanimously adopted.

But . yesterday they were re- warded for their heroism with a heavy gold medal each and a set of resolutions drawn \up by the passengers of the Panama. who , witnessed, with-hearts In their .mouths, the almost superhuman daring* of ;• the men. \u25a0 The medal pre- sentation vwas mad« by A.

C. *AJ Modeer and Thomas Brown were present,; but Harold Jones "was on his way to China and' will not receive his medal until his. return. The two sea- ra«n who Joined the rescue party and shared the fearful peril have left the company's service, and their • where- abouts were unknown to the. passen- gers, who wanted to present them, too, with ,medals.

Garfield to Become Secretary of Interior Today TOKEN GIVEN SHAW Former Postmaster General Now Head of Treasury Department WASHINGTON, March 4.— The ship subsidy bill, which has been before Congress In a more or less prominent way for the past two years, and for the past two days in, a more' acute form, finally received Its quietus in the Senate at 11. o'clock today, when"Sena- tor Galllnger rose and finally an- nounced his decision not to prass "it for.further consideration. Before mak- ing this announcement, he made a last request for a vote, whereupon Carroack expressed his regret, "that the- bill would still lead to extended debate." Thereupon Gallinger made the final announcement that he would notfurj ther press the measure during this ses- sion. Before, however, he came to this statement, he entered Into a furious argument in support of the 'bill. Two days of "frivolous debate," he said,' had occurred upon the measure and he felt it to bo his duty to call attention to the salient points Involved in connec- tion with the subject. " • , . "Nine per cent of our commerce is carried in American, ships," said Gal- linger. "The remaining. 91 per cent is carried In foreign ships. "We pay those foreign Bhips $200,000,000. annually, and this sum is distributed among the peo- ple of foreign' nations." This condition. Galllnger .predicted, would not always last. The American people, who lead the world In agri- culture and manufactures, ho said, would not be content with this con- dition when, It was well understood. Concluding,. Gallinger said that in giv- ing up the fight for the bill at this session he did so without any feeling of hostility or unklndness. "With this," he said, "I N arn content to let the matter rest for the present. But I want here and now to give notice to' my associates in this chamber, and to the citizens of this republic that so long as I remain In public" life I shall not remain silent, but shall exert my- self to the utmost to sefeure leglsla-. tion on this important subject.".;," He expressed the opinion that with the support of the Democratic members, of which he had been assured, he would get action on a measure practically along the* lines of the present bill at the next session of Congress. Gal- linger concluded at 11 o'clock, with- ; drawing the bill at that time. .", Announces That.

TONOPAH. March 4.—Louis Sloss, secretary. of the Kewanos Company of Goldfield one of the heaviest stock- holders in that company, had a narrow escape from death recently at the hands of Charles Atphin. one of tha proprietors of the Butler -Theater. Slos-s, who , was in thl.s. city to meet the Kewanos stockholders coming from the coast on their recent Inspection trip, was staying with a friend .named O'Keefe. Late at night Sloss deter- mined to go to bed. and, securing the key to the house, started to find the O'Keefe residence, where .he was to sleep. Sloss became confused as to the house and, finally picking oat one that looked right,' he tried th« key. which worked, and walked in. Ha went through the first room and opened the door of the second, when he was halted by a sharp command to bold up his hands. He did so, but before he could speak a bullet passed bis ear and burled itself in the wall. Not content with his bad pistol practice, the outraged householder sprang from his bed and beat Sioss in the face with his fist. Sloss bro£e away and rushed to the door, which he slammed after him. and ran down the. street- This tale did not get out in Tonopah at first. Alphin, the man whoso bed- room the mino owner had so uncere- moniously entered, told of having routed a robber, but who that "robber" was. did not develop until Sloss told the stbry yesterday in Goldfleld. Both men were congratulating themselves on lucky escapes today, Sloss be» cause he is still alive and Alphin,be- cause his poor marksmanship saved him from taking the life of an Innocent man. Alphin used an automatic pi3tol and it had but one shot In it. To this fact Sloss owes his life.

THAW'S CHIEF ALIENISTCONCLUDES TESTIMONY

Proves Match for Jerome inWit and Readiness

Nof Answer

MRS. WM. THAW NEXT

District Attorney Is at Seaas to Latitude in

Rebuttal

NEW TORK. March 4.—

A long strideforward In the trial of Harry K.Thawwas taken today when District Attor-ney Jerome announced that his ex-haustive cross-examination of Dr. Brit-ton D. Evans, one of the alienists forthe defense, had been concluded. Dr.Evans had been under fire sinceWednesday morning last. . He was Im-mediately succeeded on the stand by Dr.Charles G. Wagner of Binghamton. N.V., who accompanied Dr. Evans on mostof his visits to Thaw in the Tombs.Jerome indicated that he may concludewith Dr. Wagner tomorrow.

Mrs. William Thaw is expected to hethe next witness. With 'Mrs. Thaw'stestimony in, the defense practicallywill have completed its rase and it islikely that the State's case in rebuttaJmay be begun before the end of theweek.

District Attorney Jerome complainedtoday. In soekinp a broad interpretationof the rules of evidence by JusticeFitzgerald, that if he should ca.ll anyof the defense's alienists In rebuttalthey might refuse, on the ground ofprofessional privilege, to answer anyquestions put to them.It is not yet exactly clear to the

lay mind to what extent the DistrictAttorney can go in disproving Mrs.Evelyn Thau's testimony. He has ad-mitted that even ifhe could show Stan-ford White was out of the country atthe time of tlie alleged experience withKvelyn Nesbit In the Twenty-fourth-street studio he would not be allowedto disprove her statements on theground that Jt would be a collateralact. It appears, however, that theprosecutor may call any one to contra-dict Mrs. Thaw in cases •where she said

!*he made certain statements to a thirdparty. .In this connection Jerome hasindicated that he will call Howard Nes-bit to testify that his sister told him\u25a0Thaw hs<i treated her cruelly becauseshe would not tell lies about StanfordWhite.

Dr. Evans left th«» witness stand to-day, subject to recall for redirect *>x-

Rmination. Tlie witness protected Theinterests of the defense quite keenly!throughout his cross-examination andat all times appeared a match for theDistrict Attorney. Dr. Evans today,however, admitted that Thaw had anInsane knowledge of what he was do-ing in Maflison Square Roof Garden thenight he shot and killed Stafford

• In explaining Thaw's actions subse-quent to the shooting. Dr. Evans de-clared that as soon as the defendant ,ehot White the brain storm subsidedand his sense? began to reorganizethemselves, so that the man knew quiterroll what he was about. H*also knewhe was attacking Stanford White whenh« sliot. Dr. Evans admitted, but theknowing:* was that of an insane man.

Dr. Wagner also declared that ThawTiad Irrational knowledge of what wastranspiring on the roof garden. Dr.Wagner <-reat^d a stir in court by usingthe present tr-nse In responding to aquestion by District Attorney Jeromeas to what form of insanity Thaw "hasor had." Dr. Wagner" declared Thaw"is suffering" from symptoms whichlead toward a melancholy state and astste of dementia pra^f-ox. Dr. Wagnerdeclared Thaw's condition of mind a.tthe time* of the shooting was the re-sult of one of the Insanities of adoles-cence.

The District Attorney continued hissomewhat puzzling tactics. His ques-tioning of Dr. Evans Feem^d to havethe purpose of showing that Thawnever was insane 'to the extent con-templated by the New York criminalstatutes. Again with Dr. Wagner hepointed toward the same end and atone tjrne and another seemed desirousof having Dr. Wagner admit that Thawwas suffering from forms of insanitywhich might nr»t be curable.

Dr. Wagner was on the stand whencourt adjourned.

THAW GROWS INTERESTED'

.For FlrM Time Pay* HfH to Alienist

on Wltnrna Stand

NEW TORK. March 4.—

The formali-ties of 'postponing the March terra ofth* criminal bench of the Supreme

Court had to be gone through thismorning before the trial of HarryThaw was resumed. Thaw's c&se wasbegun In the January term and thatterm will be continued until it is dis-posed of.

Dr. D. B. Evans. tb# alienist, who wtu unflercrow-examination Wednewlay, Thnrtxlay andFriday lant. *-«• train placed upon the witnessrtand «o soon as Thaw waa called to tbe bar.

Tnaw afrain hroucht Into court nevwal bljt,brown -portfolio «»nT«>lopwi filled with lett«>ra.

H^enpaped his lawyers In earnest «vmf>.TMj<"<•hem ta^ took I.lf place taring tbe witn^s* andthe Jury box. He directed nia rrmarka especial-ly «t Peabody and McPlke. Tb# latter nepmwjdPßlrooa of avoiding the conversation, and drewhark nereral time* with tolerant coda if blahead. The defendant, however, was earnest,

and would not be denied. He continued to talkfor some minutes. Then be «at tiack and Um~tened to the first question addressed by DistrictAttorney Jerome to r>r. Eran*.It war the. first time he had paid any atten-

tion to the witness since be took the stand.Tnaw did not listen long, however, but turned,to Daniel O'Beilly. and began to talk rapidlyto him.

In resuming bla cross^xsmtnstion of Dr.Evans Jerome asked:

'•Doctor, reverting to the nirht of the shoot- 1

ing of Stanford White, does the fact that thedefendant walked deliberately away without*xcltei&rat after the ebootinjr appear to yojzto be aa important {act In determining whetheror oot the defendant was Insane T**,

"Ye*; It leads me to believe be was of nn-nonnd mmd

—that when telcea la connection

with tbe other Incident »,"The fact that at lie time Thaw's step was

fclow and measured and his manner somewhatdramatic, that be n>aaife*ted no agitation, andthat be walked away without any effort toescape, takes In conaectlon with the otherfacts. Indicated to th* witness that be didnot know he bad done anything wrong, that hedid not think he should shrink from his fellow-men or from the officers of th* law.

"Then hia attitude waa one of sttitfactionwith bis deed?""Iwould hardly go so far as that.**"When be walked toward bis wife did he

know in which direction be was going V."In view of the fact that be waJked toward

bis wife, it seems to me that be did.""Tbe fact." said Jerome, "tbat Thaw told

tbe fireman who seized him, 'be mined my wife,*does tbat Indicate to you tbat this defendantknew he had killed Stanford White?"

"It Indicated to me tbat this one thoughtwhich had weighed down npon him. bad beendevouring his nonl. was still with him. ThisIdea of bis wife being mined by StanfordWhite was still his foremost thought."

"Wbat mental prfyeßs in the defendant isconveyed to your mind by bis stating upon theroof garden after bis arrest when told by theelevator man that an officer had been sent for-•l've got to go down pome time; you mUrht aswell take me down in the elevator now Idon't want to cause any annoyance.' "•

"As to whether the man was sane or In-mb«." replied Dr. Evans, "the remark convey,nothing. Itmay elmply have meant that therewas a crowd at the elevator, ajid he did notwant to annoy anybody by obstructing tbe way *'

WASHINGTON, March 4.—The shipsubsidy bill, which has been beforeCongress In a more or less prominentway for the past two years, and forthe past two days in, a more' acuteform, finally received Its quietus in theSenate at 11. o'clock today, when"Sena-tor Galllnger rose and finally an-nounced his decision not to prass "itfor.further consideration. Before mak-ing this announcement, he made a lastrequest for a vote, whereupon Carroackexpressed his regret, "that the- billwould still lead to extended debate."

Thereupon Gallinger made the finalannouncement that he would notfurjther press the measure during this ses-sion. Before, however, he came to thisstatement, he entered Into a furiousargument in support of the 'bill. Twodays of "frivolous debate," he said,' hadoccurred upon the measure and he feltit to bo his duty to call attention tothe salient points Involved in connec-tion with the subject. " •, .

"Nine per cent of our commerce iscarried in American, ships," said Gal-linger. "The remaining. 91 per cent iscarried In foreign ships. "We pay thoseforeign Bhips $200,000,000. annually, andthis sum is distributed among the peo-ple of foreign' nations."

This condition. Galllnger .predicted,would not always last. The Americanpeople, who lead the world In agri-culture and manufactures, ho said,would not be content with this con-dition when, It was well understood.Concluding,. Gallinger said that in giv-ing up the fight for the bill at thissession he did so without any feelingof hostility or unklndness.

"With this," he said, "INarn content

to let the matter rest for the present.ButIwant here and now to give noticeto' my associates in this chamber, andto the citizens of this republic that solong as Iremain In public" lifeIshallnot remain silent, but shall exert my-self to the utmost to sefeure leglsla-.tion on this important subject.".;,"

He expressed the opinion that withthe support of the Democratic members,of which he had been assured, he wouldget action on a measure practicallyalong the* lines of the present bill atthe next session of Congress. Gal-linger concluded at 11 o'clock, with-

;drawing the billat that time. .",

. TONOPAH. March 4.—Louis Sloss,secretary. of the Kewanos Company ofGoldfield one of the heaviest stock-holders in that company, had a narrowescape from death recently at thehands of Charles Atphin. one of thaproprietors of the Butler -Theater.Slos-s, who , was in thl.s. city to meetthe Kewanos stockholders coming fromthe coast on their recent Inspectiontrip, was staying with a friend .namedO'Keefe. Late at night Sloss deter-mined to go to bed. and, securing thekey to the house, started to find theO'Keefe residence, where .he was tosleep. Sloss became confused as tothe house and, finally picking oat onethat looked right,' he tried th« key.which worked, and walked in. Hawent through the first room and opened

the door of the second, when he washalted by a sharp command to boldup his hands. He did so, but beforehe could speak a bullet passed bis earand burled itself in the wall. Notcontent with his bad pistol practice,

the outraged householder sprang fromhis bed and beat Sioss in the facewith his fist. Sloss bro£e away andrushed to the door, which he slammedafter him. and ran down the. street-

This tale did not get out in Tonopahat first. Alphin, the man whoso bed-room the mino owner had so uncere-moniously entered, told of havingrouted a robber, but who that "robber"was. did not develop until Sloss toldthe stbry yesterday in Goldfleld. Bothmen were congratulating themselveson lucky escapes today, Sloss be»cause he is still alive and Alphin,be-cause his poor marksmanship savedhim from taking the life of an Innocentman. Alphin used an automatic pi3tol

and it had but one shot Init. To thisfact Sloss owes his life.
