NEW YORK, Jan. 16,—Dr. Horatio
C. Wood, of Philadelphia, was called to
the stand as the first witness in the
Thaw case today. Dr. Wood some
years ago made an examination of
Ha'rrlet Alice Thaw, a relative oi the
defendant. District Attorney Jerome
objected to the physician's testimony.
but was overruled by the court, as the
relation of attending physician and
patient did not exist In this case. Dr.
Wood said that Miss Thaw was oi un-
sound mind,

The next witness told of new eccen-
tricltles oi Thaw just before the kill-
ing of Stanton] White. He was
Christopher Baggan a steward of the
New York Whist Club. Thaw was In
the club on June 20,1006, just live
days beiore the roof garden tragedy.
He was highly nervous and although
the day was hot Thaw insisted on tak-
Ing a screen with him whenever he
went about the rooms He was highly
nervous. excitable and irritable and
once as he passed the witness was
muttering. "This is awful."

Baggan said Thaw finally came up
to him and asked him to have a pack-
age put in the safe.

“What. was in the package?‘ ' asked
Mr. Iaittletmi.

"Three cigarettes wrapped In
loll."

Thaw'n eyes. the witness said, had a
peculiar stare. A telephone message
came for him and when the witness
touched him to attract his attention.
Thaw trembled all over. When in the
city Thaw was In the club rooms near-
Iy every day.

“Did Thaw Impress you till rational
or Irrational?"

“Irrational. "

On cross-examination Braggun said
he had known Thaw for fourteen
years Thaw was In the club playing
bridge whist the day of the handy.
Asked who else was there the witness
said Cuptnln Wharton, John A. Drake,
and John ll. Gleason. one oi counsel to
Thaw at the first trial. At other in-
hles he said "Mr, Gates" and "Mr.
lchwub" were present,

"But i ey always uppenred

didn't they "" asked Mr ‘.leronw.

"Yes. "

"And ’I‘haw was nervous'

" Yes."

" ‘And they were playing for money. ""
"I don t know."

"Huveut you any Idea?"

”No. sir. I'm not supposed to have
any."

"I know you are not supposed to
how any. but us a motto-r of liii'l.
haven't you?"

“‘The rules forbid playing for IIIotIey,'
s r."

The court oillcors had to suppress
frequent outbursts of laughter.

"Did Thaw and his party have any-
thing to drink on June 25'!"

"Oh. yes, sir. all sorts of mineral
waters."

”And what else?"

“Nothing. unless they had it with
them: we dont serve imythiug but
mineral waters at the club, slr.‘

“But every member has a locker?"

“Yes. sir."

"And they keep all they want In the
locker?‘ '

"Yes, sir. Iguens so. siI"

"And drinks were served hunt the
lockers that day?"

"I really dont know, sir."

"Thaw understood the game oi
bridge and played with the best mem-
bers, didn't be?"

“Yes, sir."

"And how did he
able to‘ hold his own?"
"I guess so, air."

The witness said Thuw had been
more or less newous ever since he had
known him, He was calmer when
playing bridge than at any other time.
Thaw was at theielcphone for the bet-
ter part of an hour the day of the trait-
edy. and the witness heard him repent
”This Is awful."

'l'haw's nervousness increased uo~
ticeahly during the. last years the wit-
ness had known him.

Miss Matilda Stein. a telephone op-
eralor at the Grand Hotel in I003 and
1904. when Thaw was a guest there.
was the next witness. She said she
knew Thaw under be name oi Parr.
She saw him oiten In] his eyes were
always staring and‘bulglng. His man-
ner was irrational. One morning
Thaw pill. In in telephone calls in less
than three hours. One morning he.
mdered his breakfast three times In
twenty minutes.

0n croseexamlnution Miss Stein
said Evelyn Nenhit also was a guest
at the Grand under the name of Miss
Farr.

"Wasn't Il tailor the morning after
she. left that line 15: calls were put in?"
asked Mr, .leiome.

The witness was sure it was not be-
cause Iiiss Nesbit had not do aeveral
that day herself. One the witness rs-
membered was to Burr McIntosh,
