New York, July 21.—The friend* of
Stanford White, the murdered art hi -
fecL today are co-operating Indirectly
with Mr*. William Thaw to prevent
Harry Kendall Thaw from being placed
on trial.
A trial would be productive of star
tling revelations, and this the dead
architect's friends seek to avoid, while
Mr*. Thaw fear* the electric chair for
her *on in the event of a trial with
the "unwritten law” a* a defense.
Two Women Don’t 8p*ak.
The breach between Evelyn Nesblt
Thaw and her husband's mother has
widened, because the young wife, alone
of those close to him, ha* encouraged
him In hi* decision to fight all at
tempts to prove him Insane.
In private the two women do not
speak now. Mrs. Thaw Ignores the
ng wife entirely, and while Evelyn
w Is dolftg all she> can to aid her
husband to keep the insanity plea out
of the case, Mrs. William Thaw con
stantly la sending suggestions to Mr.
Olcott to enable him to establish
Thaw's-mental Irresponsibility.
Lawyers Not Recognised,
The Olcott firm, which the mother
retains. Is not recognised by her son
and Mr*. Thaw and her lawyer* ignore
Clifford Hartrldge, Thaw'* personal
counsel.
It I* understood that. In line with
the new policy of the defense In plead
ing justification, Mr. Hartrldge will
make public within the next few daye
fact* that have hitherto been unreveal-
ed bearing upon the case and tending
to show the tension to which Thaw had
been wrought up by the circumstance*
In which he labored.
Whits’* Widow to Lsav*. ,
It is bellsved the publication of these
excerpts from the evidence which the
defense has collected, including por
tions of the secret statements made by
the wife of the prisoner, will go far
toward bringing public sympathy to
his cause, which Is considered a highly
desirable objective by his counsel.
Mrs. Stanford White will leave New
York for Paris early In August and
will remain away until the Thaw trial
Is concluded.
Will Keep Statement.
Terrence J. McManus of the firm of
Black, Olcott. Gruber & Bonynge today
refused to give up the first statement
of Evelyn Nesblt Thaw of her life
story. When Hartrldge's brother, also
a lawyer, asked for It today Mu. Mc
Manus referred Mr. Hartrldge to Judge
Olcott and turned on his heel.
Plead* With Her 8on.
Thaw's mother made a last appeal'to
her son today to permit her to direct
the fight for hts life. Mrs. Thaw, ac
companied by her daughter, Mrs. Car
negie, came to ths Tombs from the
latter’s country place at Roslyn, R. I.,
and later, Joined by Harry Thaw's wife,
held a lengthy conference with him in
the conference room of the prison.
But the attitude of Evelyn Nesblt
Thaw toward her mother-in-law Indi
cated that, In spite of the fact she
Joined the family council, the elder and
the yodnger women were still opposing
each other.

IDENTITY OF VICTIMS
HA8 BEEN LEARNED
Mr. Jeromo would not talk of the
Thaw case—that Is to reporters. He
did have considerable to say on the
subject In talking to some of the law
yers at the bar meeting, though hie re
marks were not learned until he left
there.
‘This rase has attracted considerable
attention,” said Mr. Jerome In talking
to the solicitor of one of the county
courts of Georgia. "It lias been mainly
on account of tho many stereotyped
newspaper features connected with the
tragedy. Some people are looking for
ward to the trial. It will not attract
the attention the Mollneux case did,
for It hasn't the depth to It.
"1 am of the opinion that there will
be a long (rial, In case a sanity com
mission Is applied for. If ths trial Is
simply one of defense on the 'unwrit
ten law,' It will not last long.
“Oh, no. It won't be hard to get
Jury, owing to the special law In New
York,” eald he In reply to a question
from a lawyer.
When It was announced that the taw
Arm of Judga William K. Olcott had
been discharged by Thaw and Hart
rldge retained, while the mother of
Harry Thaw re-engaged the former
firm, there waa considerable doubt In
Mr. Gamm's mind as to whether Jt ‘
Olcott could act, being retained
■ome one other than the accused.
Oh, I don't think there will bd any
trouble about that," said Mr. Jerome
when asked about that phase of the
alTalr.
Move of Last Resort.
"Now as to the temporary Injunction
secured by Hartrldge against -the dis
trict attorney’s otAre, restraining ua
from securing evidence and going fur
ther with the case', I have only to aay
that that Is the course generally pur
sued by every lawyer. It Is nothing
lual, for Invariably when a lawyer
gate, to the end of hie row be appl
for a writ of prohibition. It • will i
amount to anything.
It also became known while the dis
trict attorney and his assistants were
In Warm Springs that they were of the
opinion that tha discharge of hie law
yers by Thaw was a part of his Insani
ty "play." Ths district attorney and
Mr. Gsrvan placed little credence In
the "unwritten law" claim.
'Ths South Is not unlike the North,
East or West, when It cornea to the un
written law, aa It Is called," eald the
district attorney. "You cannot secure
a conviction In our part of tha state
any more than down hare. It la tha
•ame anywhere—It Is a subject that
appeals to every man In the same
light, and the juries disregard the law.
This Thaw case, however, le nothing of
that sort. Knowing what I do about
the case, the 'unwritten law’ will
amount to nothing In the trial."
"All of this libelous stuff that has
been written about Stanford White waa
done so purely because those papers
knsw they would not be held account
able. Had they thought Ills family
would care to go to court about It, they
would not have dared. Some people

absurd. In a case of this sort It Is
the custom of a certain branch of the
press to take the side of the case fur
nishing the most yellow stuff. In this
case It was simple. Hera woe the
young and beautiful girl and tha rich

working tha husband Into a
fransy of rags by hla persecutors.
It has s lot of glamor about It.
The** yellow papers then got Clara
Morris, Julian Hawthorns, KIT* Whesl-

write some of their stuff about the
beautiful girl, about whom the mantis
of wifehood had been thrown by the
young millionaire, being pursued by the
rich 'beastly' While, oh, It le Just
their gnme In an affair of this sort.
That side of such a case Is always
taken by this certain branch of the
press."
Nothing Improper, Said Garvan.
It waa also learned Friday afternoon
that whllo at Warm Springs tha dis
trict attorney’s assistant, Mr. Garvan,

At the time the case waa callad,
’Johnson" waa supposed to be a bon i

ruled he could not be held tn contempt
of court because of the law that pro
hibits tha arrest of legislators during a
session of tha legislature, except for a
felony. The unusual situation also
prompted the recorder severely to roast
this special law, characterising It a •
"absolutely absurd."
The recorder held that Mrs. Green
had no recourse except to protect her
self In any way ah a might deem
and nscsssary.
