NEW. YORK, Jan. tin-When Dia-

)trlct Attorney Jerome rssiiinm his

crosmsmination of Evelyn Nesbit
Thaw at the trial of her husband. be.
reverted to her European trips with
Thaw in ms and 1904. Mr. Jerome's
voioe was not so loud as yesterday,
but his manner was no less aggressive.
Mrs. Thaw seemed in rather a sullen
mood and answered the prosecutor'h
questions curtly.

she said she had shown Thaw in
Paris fourteen letters Stanford White
had written her subsequent to the
events that followed their meeting.

"Where are those letters?" asked

. the district attorney.

“i don’t know"

“When did you last see them?"

"i think it was in Mr. Hsrtrldge's
”attics."

”Did you write to Stanford White

from Boulogne?"

”Yes." ,

“One letter or two?"

"i don't recall"

Like the direct inquiry. the cross
examination of the witness lost effect
from repetition. no new facts having
been unearthed to confront Mrs. Thaw
with up to this time.

"How long was it after you landed
from Europe in 1904 after telling this
story to Thaw about Stanford White
that you wereln the Madison Square
Garden tower with Stanford White?’
asked Mr. Jerome.

"Some time."

“Two days?"

_"More than that."

"A week?"

"Yes."

"As long as that—after you had do
clined an honorable offer of marriage
because of this man 9"

“i went to dinner at the tower, but
did not go alone."

”Did you tell Thaw about it?"

Myra. Jerome here produced the pho
tographic copy of the famous Hummel
aflidavit and had the witness identify
the signature Mrs. Thaw told yester-
day of the burning of the original af-
fidavit which she declared she signed
with it knowln its contents. The at
iidav alleged cruel treatment by
Thaw during the 1903 trip abroad
When the witness was asked if sh:
told Hummei the things set forth in
the ahidavit or anything like them she
replied in positive fashion:

"1 most certainly did not."

Mr. Littieton objection to questions
concerning the allldavlt, saying it was
not a material issue in the case. He
was over-ruled by Justice bowling
who said:

"Any acts of the defendant are sub-
Ject to investigation in a case of this
kind." , .

"Did Thaw ever best you?" asked
Mr. Jerome.

"No."

"Didn't you tell Stanford White that
Thaw had beaten you?"

”i did not."

"What did Thaw say when you told
him you had heard he put a girl in a
ath’tub and turned scalding water on

r."

"He just laughed."

“Didn't you any last year that he
shook his head mm and said:

tool“, of 'you’” .
’;Well, where did the laugh coma
in '

"Afterwards, when we were talking
about it"

"Dldn' t White give you a pearl drop

“Christmas 1904" «

“What did you do with it?"

"i gave it to Will Sturgia. "

No attempt was made this time to
keep secret the names that figured in
the testimony of the first trial.

”Didn't you testify at the first trial
that White only gave you useful pres
cuts. like clothes and furs?"

Mr. Littleton objected and the‘ ques-
tion was not pressed.

The district attorney continued as
in yesterday to read extensively from
.he testimony of the ilrst trial. seem
Tug determined to get every detail of
the evidence adored a year ago in
the record of the present hearing.

Dir. Jerome also went over in data

times and the proceedings dragged ac.

“Did you think it was calculated to
have s quieting eiiect on him?"

"i thought it was better that he
should know he was there than that
he should come msuddcnly upon him,"
replied Mrs. Thaw.

"But the note was written after
White had gone out?"

”Yes; but i didn't know but that
IIIGT might" come back," fairly shouted

rs.

“And” you thought it best that Thaw
with a pistol in his pocket should see
Stanford White?"

"'i didn't know Mr. Thaw had a
pistol. "

"You knew he always carried a pie
tol when in New York?"

“I only know i saw the pistol when
we were in New York."

Here Mr. Jerome made a move
which called Mr. Littleton to his feet
with ii lump. He asked:

“Didn't you read in the papers at
the time of the last trial that there
was no narcotic known to science
which could be drunk‘in champagne
and produce the effect you said the
wine had upon you at the 24th street
house?"

Mr. Littieton tried to interrupt the
prosecutor, but he insisted upon ask-
ing the question in full.

"The district attorney knew that
piestion was improper when he asked
it." shouted the attorney. "and l earn.
estly object to it."

"Sustained," said Justice howling.
.tir. Jerome smiled. He then spent
some little time searching in the evi-
lencc of the last trial for new ques-
tions to ask.

lie apologised for the delay by say-
ing: "There was so much speech
.iiakliig inst year it's hard to had any
evidence."

The witness smiled with the others.

Mr. Jerome asked the witness if she
had ever visited a number of notor-
ious llowcry resorts which he enumer-
ated. She declared she had never
heard of the places. and Mr. Littleton' ii
objection to this line of questioning
was sustained.

Mrs. Thaw told again about Thaw
sending a cahlegram from London to
Stanford White in 1903, and said it
was to ask White to stop an attache
of the American embassy there from
bothering her mother.

”Hadn’t your mother complained to
the embassy about your conduct and
Thaw's and about your desertiou of

little Evelyn, they have been making a

"No." snapped the witness in reply.

Mrs. Thaw said she did not want
Harry to send the cable message.

“Why?" asked Hr. Jerome.

"Because I thought it was crazy."

Mr. Jerome lumped so much from
one part of the story to another that
it was not known when the luncheon
recess was ordered how much longer
he would be with the witness.

NEW HAVEN, Jan. 21. —-0ver 300
members of the Connecticut State Li-
quor Dealers' Association were pm
out at the annual meeting beid~Sun~
day alternoon by the local. dealers in
Steinert Hall. The dealers present
unanimously confirmed the following
resolution adopted at the convention
held in Bridgeport August 20 and 27
of last year: . "This organisation does
most emphatically denounce any man
in the liquor business who runs a dis-
reputable place, and recommends that
each and every local organisation ex-
amine carefully into the character of
every applicant for admission to mom
bership of said locals."

The dealers stated that they were
in no wise alarmed at or afraid of the
great wave of prohibition which is
sweeping the country, for they say
that the Connecticut legislators have
too much sense to condemn the en-
tire trade on account of the misde'
meanors of a few.

"We are not opposed." said Secre-
tary John J. Kinney, "to the grafters
who createpositions for themselves
and earn their livelihood by opposing
the liquor trade. We are not attack-
lng such people. We are merely de-
fending ourselves as legitimate busi-
ness men against unfair opposition.

wish to be put on record as say-
iwng 9what we are in sympathy with the
law, which we ,consider stringent
enough to drive men of disreputable
character out of the liquor business."
