PAIR BROUGHT BACK
FROM CHARLESTON
New York, March 26.-—Evelyn Nes-
blt Thaw’s Indictment and trial for
perjury committed to save the life of
her husband probably will be the most
sensational and startling aftermath of
the Thaw trial. Certain covert moves
indicate that It is District Attorney
Jerome's aim not to spare the young
woman punishment. If she must be
sacrificed to vindicate Stanford White's
memory*.
While the Thaw case was tempora
rily halted today, Jerome took pains to
nsure that certain'witnesses, most of
them women of the stage, would be on
hand whenever he might see fit to call
them.
Whether Harry Thaw goes to the
Matteawan mad house or to state’s
prison Is a mattdr of comparative In
difference to Jerome, according to those
who have discusaed the matter with
him. He Is not so eagerly vengeful
against Thaw as to be over-zealous to
send him to the chair.
The more Important matter Is to es
tablish the falsity of the allegations
brought against Stanford White by
Evelyn Nesblt Thaw on the witness
stand and to clear his name by show
ing that she swore falsely.
J*'oundatlon for perjury proceedings
was laid by the young woman herself.
Vain endeavors were pat forth by Law
yer Delmas to shield her from the dis
trict attorney’s campaign to Impeach
her story by getting her account of the
treatment to which she was subjected
by the architect Into the record in the
guise of a conversation she had with
Harry Thaw.
This sh'leld of protection failed when
Jerome obtained from her a direct
statement fixing the date of the attack
by White. The Incidents In the mirror
room of one of White's retreats, she
swore, took place on the night subse
quent to the day upon which she had
posed for certain photographs.
Jerome, aided by White’s friends, has
proof, It Is reported, that White on the
night named by Evelyn was In his
apartments In the Madison Square tow.
er receiving election- returns.
