MRS. THAW FINISHED
New York, Feb. 26.—District At­

as to Thaw’s manner when he would
chance to meet White. She said he
acted like a pei on in a fit.
Abraham Hummel, the lawyer
who drew up the affidavit to which
Evelyn Nesbit is raid to have sworn
and wh'ch charged Thaw with cru­
elties dun 13 the 1903 trip to Europe,
was called to the stand. He said he
first met Evelyn in 1901 or 1902, and
that she visited him in his ofilce in
1903. He could not remember the
date. He was shown a photographic
copy of the last page of the famous
affidavit, which Hummel said refresh­
ed his memory so that he could pos­
itively state that the d. te was Octo­
ber 27, 1903. Jerome was unable
to get into the record any facts re­
garding the affidavit, De’ ias block­
ing the way with sustained objec­

a carbon copy of a paper given by
Jacob Snydecker to Hummtl.
The witness was excused and Sny­

ceeded in quashing the first ques­

Evelyn recalled.
Jerome handed Mrs. Thaw a paper

I The president asserted that there
' had been a curious revival of the doc-
I trine of state's rights in connection
, with the question of the control of
'corporations, by the people who
know that the states cannot do both
sides justice, control the corpora­
tions, and who therefore advocate
such control because they do not
venture to express their real wish,
which is that there shall be no con­
trol at all. Honest and fair dealing
railway corporations will gain and
not lose by adequate federal control;
most emphatically it is both the duty
of our people to deal fairly with
such corporations and to see that a
premium is put upon the honest man­
agement of them and that those who
invest in them are amply protected.
Against Special Privileges.
“Our present warfare is against
special privilege. The men—many
of them. I am sorry to say, college
men—who are prompt to speak
against every practical means which
can be devised for achieving the ob­
ject we have in view—the proper and
adequate supervision by the federal
government of the great corporations
nevertheless, themselves, powerless
to so much as outline a plan of con­
structive statesmanship which shall
give relief. I have watched for six
years these men—both those in > uj -

every affirmative step taken, 1 have
yet to see one of them lift finger to

The witness testified that she first
met Thaw in December, 1901, or
January, 1902, at a dinner at Rec­
tor’s after a matinee. She received
no presents from Thaw during the
first weeks of their acquaintance ex­
cept some violets and once some mon­
ey, $50, which she returned to Thaw,
who apologized for sending it. Ques­
tioned as to why she received the
money, witness said:
“I knew it was always done at the
theatre. I saw it going on all the
li?e
time.”
Jerome's examination seemed to
progress slowly as to important facts
and as a matter of fact enabled Eve­
lyn to explain some things which last
week appeared against herself and
the defendant. She denied having
used any money from White’s letter
of credit while abroad, and denied
that the cablying to White by her
mother and herself from London had

Jerome confronted the witness
with D. Carlton Flint and asked if
she had not been to see him with

clared she had never seen him before.

question when Jerome asked Evelyn
