He Is connected with the New Jersey state hospital for the Insane. The average number of patients treated at the hos pital Is l.sno. All are under hie direct supervielon. He has appeared as on expert In a number of rases. He knew of Harry Thaw, and saw hill! hrst on August 4. last. He visited Thaw eight limes at the Tombs prison. On two occasions he went alone. On the other limes he was accompanied by Dr. Wagner. Objections All Sustained. "What was the object of your visits'."' asked Detnias. objection by Jerome sustained.

It means that a person under a great strain gives way—not as a normal man —the well-balanced mind In ordinary grief, but there Is a loss of will power and ilie person acting becomes a victim of hls diseased rondltlon, as a rudder less ship In Hie wind.

It was closed, after recess and hs went lo the regular entrance where he mat Lawyer Moor*, of Mr. Hartrldgs's of fice. Not withstanding Ills pleadings, Owens would not permit Mr. t'arnegle lo enter, saying he had no business there. For a lime It seemed (hat the men would com* to blows. Suddenly the proceeding was Interrupted by the noise. Justice Fltsgerald brought down hls gravel and sent officers nut to quail the disturbance. Dan O'Reilly then tried to get Mr. Carnegie In. and when unlit not overcome the obdurate doorman, the door leading to the pri vate entrance was opened to him. During the latter part of the row the session of court stopped. Another Incident was a sensational clash between District Attorney Je rome and Dr. Charles B.

The district attorney called the alleti- llsr, but no trouble resulted, trouble occurred when the police pined up Just imtsliie of the doni of ■urtroom. All th* lawyers and Ilie alienists and a number ot newspaper were standing Inside the po'.tce lints smoking and talking. Dr. Charles II. Evnnx appeared and spoke to Mr. let min* and the district attorney w ent >n smoking without paying the slight est attention to the bow. “What Is the mailer. Judge?" Asked Evans, and he held out Ills hand. Jerome raised hls own hand, took the cigarette from hls mouth and merely looked at the docini contemptuously, without speaking. The mun who had oeen Insulted Bill persisted: "Why do you smoke. Judge, when I extend my band'."' he demanded angrily. Jerome *iioke. coldly ant' very distinctly, so that all near could hear: "If you In sist upon knowing, I do not shake nands with you because I do not think vou a r e u truth-telling man." Dr. Ev ans' face (lamed. He awalnwed a cou ple of limes, then blurted "You are no gentleman. Judge, to say such words to me." Mr. Jerome shrusgetl Ills shoulders.

"Modesty forbids my saying." In* re- sponded with a promptness which made one forget to laugh. And because I did forget.

This Is the greatest composer,' for no man com bines all the tender and the heroic and the sorrowful In hls playing. In mine. I ant trying to express them all. I should much like to be os Proteus was. Do you recall about him? The great thing Is to try to be universal.'* Asked It he and the famous Pade rewski were rivals, Herr Rosenthal's quick smile told that they are the beat of friends. "We do not need to be rivals. We love each other very much.’* He brought from hls pocket an Inter esting looking batch of letters with foreign stamps, and searching among them he found Paderewski's Christmas cablegram. It read In French: "Affectionate good wishes and sin cere friendship.—PadsrewakL” \ "Oh. but It now occurs to ms that this may seam like advertising the friendship.” said Herr Rosenthal with sudden deprecation In hls vole*. “You are very understanding of how It would appear In print and I beg you It so that they win * :tion for Pade- to write only express my afftc rewskt.” And assured that Atlanta psopfe would understand and would be glad to read of PmdsrswakL whom they love. Herr Rosenthal was calm again. Hut speaking of great composers,” he resumed, "the three very greatest ever In the world, I think, were Bee-' ihoven. Hchutnan and Chopin.
