this talk In Parte en this man. ' I re
turn to, her story of . their atay'ln Eu
rope, ; bow-he talked too much of thla
thing, how . he " would . become excited
about It. how h waa constantly going
ever It again and again, and how It wa
never out of hi mind. I -
"8uch wa the condition of Thaw's
mind when he parted from Evelyn and
sent her to America before blm. It wa
the first faint dawn of the mental con
dition which manifested Itaelf three
years later. He ears he went to call
upon her aoon after he arrived In New
York, and bo found that ta the mean
time auoh things had happened that
when he, the man she loved, called she
refused to see him alone. .,
; Poisoned Agnla Kim. ,,' -'
"He found her mind poisoned a gal not
him. He aald aha didn't understand.
Then aha told him she'd heard certain
stories,' that he put a girl In a bathtub
aad turned boiling water oa her; that
he took morphine, tnat he was erasy
and that hs was la tha habit of tying
girls to bedposts and beating them. He
shook his head and aald, Toor little de
luded Evelyn.'
"She told him how ehe had gone to
Hummafs office and bad seen there
papere purporting to be a part of a ault
agalnat him by a girl he had mistreated,
and he told her If ehe wished to be
lieve uch thing aha could.
"Evelyn told you. 'And ha kissed my
hand and aald he would always car
most for me that I wa an angel to
him aad we parted aa though never to
see each other again.'
--. Picture XI Ooadltloa. .
"Picture hi state of mind when he
received such greetings fioiu the woman
from whom h hd parted so tenderly
only a short I me before, whom be loved
and had asked to be his wife. Picture
his state of mind when he found that
sbe had been mentally, poisoned by the
man who wa the cans of all her
wrong ao that ah refused to ee him
alone, and whan he exclaimed, Toor
little Evelyn.' , .
"Then recall' the letter he wrote her,
how he wrote the nest day Oh the
madness of it 'A you ar absolutely
honest. I won't trouble you, I would
have done anything for you; now you
muat get atronger without m.',i'
"Neither the pagea of poetry nor ora
tory contain a sadder atory of utter
desolation than when Thaw bewailed hi
lo. The world appeared blank te him.
He felt that he had nothing to Ilv for.
All ambition had ned." , ..
.. XI Changed Manner, .r
Delma described at length Thaw's
changed manner when he went t Pitts
burg, how hi mother noticed It and at
last learned hr secret. He continued:
"Then you remember the occasion In
the church when the organ pealed out
that grand anthem. To the God of Our
Armies and Navlea. Lest We Forget.'
how he broke down and with the mualc
ringing In hi ears he repeated thl tale:
Tea never caa forget tha wrong done
thl girt you never can forget what
make your life ao desolate.'
"The courageous man conceived that
he had a ailaalo to perform. Seeing
Evelyn In the hand of White Beamed to
him worse than tha tormente of hell.
He came back to New Tork te make oae
more effort a save ber."
Delmas then depicted how Thaw and
Evelyn had met aa etranaera. hew Eve-
lya at laat learned that the etorlea that
had been told her. about Thaw wars
untrue. , -

i "Then." exclaimed Delmas, "hspe be
a agala to dawa In thla man' breast.
The hour ef reeonclltattoa wae at hand;
we oarner were railing away. -
"They cam closer together until that
blessed night of Chfiatmaa eve. ltOl, the

hoped to renew his wrong to her; on
that night thl man who wa devoted
to her. snatched her away from the Jaw
of death, from the snare of disgrace.
and took her away." .
When That meal IVera Began.
"And that night their real love for
each ether ' began. That night, when
hunting for the man who had rescued
Evelyn, but found him not, with platol
In hand. Whit threatened to ahoot tha
man who had baffled him." Delmaa ex
plained how Thaw believed that White
had v employed the "Monk" Eaatraan
gang te kill him and continued: '
"Then the apectre that he might loee
hi own life wa added to the en
which had haunted him 0 long. From
that nleht he went armed." - . Continu
ing the story of Evelyn and Harry,
Delmaa said: .'In the Utter part of 1194
or the beginning of 1908. the second
operation waa performed oa Evelyn.
When convalescent the man who for
two years had aought her love and had
been refused because she 'thought their
union would be to his detriment, per
suaded the mother he adored to come
te New York.
Thaw Xotb SaeeemrfaL
"She came and beeought the girl to
marry- her--sons She- assured .Evelyn
that ahe would be welcome to the home.
would be honored and respected aa the
wife ef her son.
KAnd'th Poor little girl, who had re
fused the ion, could not ' resist th
mother, and en April 4, 10S, they were
married.
Delmaa outlined at length how, when
business or social duty had driven Thaw
and Evelyn from Pittsburg' to New
Tork, Whit had twice pursued her, and
how Thaw mad hie wife promt' to
111 him ef every time she saw White
He continued :" v '
"In May, 1908, Evelyn related to her
husband how White had gone to May
MacKensie In the hospital, ' and when
May MacKensie had said ' to White,
' Isn't It nice how Evelyn and Thaw
get alongr White answered, "Well. It
won't laat; I will get her back.'" . ,
: Orew Wild at White Boast,
"When Eveiyn related that atory to
Thaw on month before the fatal day
in June he began' to gnaw hi nail and
bl eye grew wild. Did he not have
eauae to get wild, when thl man, who
had loved thl girt for four year; who
had carried her atory 'In hi heart; who
had made her hie -wife, heard that her
ravlsher had boasted he would get her
backf. s. :
"In- hi mind he heard White eay 1
tola her from her mother, now I will
ateal her again from her husband.' But
he did not ateal her again. Between
that desire and Its consummation stood
thl strong young man to defend his
right, inspired by pledges he had made
befor-heavenito protect her'wtth hi
Ufa" . - --y .
"From that time on Thaw waa al
waya haunted, by the thought that
White, aa long aa he lived, wa a con
stant menace to hi horn and honor.
HI wife ha aald ha would wake her la
the middle ef the night to aalc quae-!
tlona about White. He waa conatantly
brooding on the subject of White. Then
ope by one he learned the specific case
btTb"dlher girt victim "of White."
"With thl thought in mind he aald
Whit' place was in th penitentiary;
that he would get worse and worse aa
time went on. and would deatroy not
only girls on the stage, but other girl a,
and they would not only be dl" graced,
but would become bad women. To shew
how deep waa the Impression oa hi
mind, I call your attention to the pro
vision In th codicil of hi will aettlng
aald thousands of dollara to protect
girl who might become victim or
White, and, etrange to aay. It wae writ
ten on th night of thl wadding."
A Applied to aerosae SUmself. :
B-ut his effort did not end with th
codicil, but In th early part ef 190 he
wrote to Com atock and then called upon
the district attorney, whoaow asks hi
llf. Then he went to the moat impor
tant detective agencies. He al way o re
tained tha earn result, was told that
nothing could be dona 'Even hia wife
toid him he could not aucceed agalnat
Whit and hlapowrful frlenda With
these thought in mind, that h waa
baffled in hi battle for Tight and rtr
tue,' try to conceive the etate of Thaw's
mind when he met Stanford White on
that night in June."
Thaw's laaaalty "Dementia Americana."
Delma said that It th expert could
classify Thaw's Ineanlty they would
characterise It as "Dementia American,"
which, makea a man believe tnat the
sanctity of a man'e home Is Inviolate.
The Jury appeared to give unaiviaea

New Tork. April . Continuing his
denunciation of White, begun yesterday
afternoon In his address to the Thaw
Jury, Attorney D. M. Delmas said, af
ter reviewing ' Evelyn's . betrayal oy
White: - ' ,
"He who had erected altars, eanctuar

developed - In probing the payment to
Evelya by White of tit weekly whan
she was not on th atage, that Mr.
Holmaa had 'received the money from
White. "In the tear following Evelyn'e
betrayal Mrs. Holman received aa aver
age ef t!0 monthly, yet the prosecu
tion tell you that at that time White
waa financially embarrassed. I ask yoa
why White paid this money to Mra.
Holman, and: leave you ta anawer.
"Thla led up to the discovery ef Eve

wrote letter confronting Whit with
danger of exposure, and told how White
went to hi "disreputable friend, Abe

"I wish to call your attention ta the

that she had received 300 monthly
