Young Mrs. Thaw has offered to' 'appear in behalf of her husband, from : whom she Is seeking a divoree. If her! testimony Is necessary In the proceed-' Iiiks. Thaw will undoubtedly go on the stand In hta own behalf. His counsel says he is willing to submit to any examination the court or dis trict attorney may desire to show' proof of sanity. His counsel will op-J pose any effort to have the case transferred to New York county. District Attorney Mack, of Duchess' county, moved that the trial be trans- ferred to New York because of the' expense which It would Inflict upon the county of Duchess, about $;iu 000. Assistant District Attorney liar- j van that the, trial would Involve the sending of commissioners to Purls, Monte Carlo and other places in Ku rnpe to obtain evidence of Thaw's sanity, and argued that the case should be concluded under the juris diction wheiv it originated. Attor ney liraham, for Thaw, argued that the cas sh.nild be tried In the judi cial district where the habeas corpus was made returnable, and that the slutttuont of the cost of the proceed ings had been exaggerated; that the function of the New York district at torney ended with the murder trial. The New York district attorney could appear only by courtesy of the court, and not the Duchess county district atto rney. Judge Morsehnuer denied the mo tion to tmnsfer the hearing, but of fered to sit In New Yorw to hear the people's testimony If both sides were to consent. After the relator's side Is heard Judge Morschauer will sit In New York to accommodate Jerome. Adjournment t May 11 was an nounced, and Thaw was taken to the county jail In charge of the sheriff, where he will be able to have meals from the outside and receive any vis itors he wishes to see.
