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.” New and Correct The style of Regals is permanent.

I regret that eo many official* and others have much extra wdrk.” Evelyn Worn With Worry. The strain today seemed to have told more on Evelyn Neshlt Thaw than on any of Thaw’s family, although all looked worn from anxiety. Young Mrs. Thaw, however, expected that her husband would be freed. These are tedious hours of wait ing." she said, "but the rumors from the Jury room make me confident that Harry will never be found guilty.” •T am his wife and I will be with him either In the days of freedom that ought to come or In the renewal of his tlBht Jury Is Intsrestsd. Up to their return from breakraat today the Jury had given the court no Intimation that a verdict was not pos sible. They have not asked to be dis charged. On the contrary, no Jury In many years has demonstrated such In tense Interest In a case as has this one.
