Thaw Not Excited.
Harry Thaw, the man most con

retained his composure today better
than any of the members of his family.
After the jury had been locked up for

WHITE’S SLA YER DESPISES
MAN WHO CARRIES GUN
New York. April 12.—Harry Thaw gave out a statement from the
prison pen today. In which he explained that he wished the Jury and
every one else to understand that no one despises a person who carries
concealed weapons more than he. The statement was:
“Only after my life was in Jeopardy, as I was Informed by persons
and as was communicated to me by professional detectives, did I protect
myself. In the trial I wished tny case solely and simply based on the law
of the state and upon the evidence which had convinced not only me, as I
reviewed and Inquired Into all this evidence, but also the district attor
ney, that I am innocent under the written laws of the state.”

The strain today seemed to have told

any of Thaw’s family, although all
looked worn from anxiety. Young
Mrs. Thaw, however, expected that her
husband would be freed.

Harry will never be found guilty.”

Up to their return from breakraat
today the Jury had given the court no
Intimation that a verdict was not pos

charged. On the contrary, no Jury In
many years has demonstrated such In
tense Interest In a case as has this
one.
Justice Fltxgerald was of the opin

bers of the Jury believed they would
come to a unanimous verdict by further
Investigation and study.

night of torture was evident by their
appearance today when they left the
room In which they had been huddled to
walk to Broadway Central Hotel for
breakfast. Leaving the building a little
after 7 o'clock, they looked tired and
careworn. Apparently many of them
had been sitting all night arguing the
merits of the case and endeavoring to
reach a conclusion. ^
Members Look Gay.
But on their march to the hotel they
did nut appear to be angry. Instead,
they were quite pleasant, but their
appearance Indicated that they had felt
the weight of their responsibility and
were trying to do their full duly, al
though It might mean much suffering
for themselves.
When Harry Thaw was awakened In
his cell at 6:45 o'clock he did not ap
pear to be n* bright and cheerful as
yesterday. His keepers said he had
what they called a "grouch.” With
only a hath robe about him, he walked
along the corridor to the bath room
•and relished his early plunge In cold
water. The room was cold and Thaw,
a* he jumped from the tub, said to a
guartj:
•■Now, I fee! better. That’s great
stuff In the morning."
Thaw Reads Headlines.
When he sat down to his breakfast of
weak coffee and rolls he had all the
morning papers before him and he hur
riedly and nervously glanced over the
first pages of each. He read the head,
line* of all of them and then selected
or three from the number to read
fully.
He was busy with the paper* when
one of hi* lawyer* railed. Then he
etarted to again do up the bundle of I
papers and documents and little trink
ets he wants to take from the cell with
him. In a written statement, he said
he did not wish to return to the Tombs
from the court If he Is discharged. For
that reason he take* with him to court

parcel containing hi* belongings.
