Throughout
New York, Fob. 21. When tho
Thaw trial opened this morning
thero wnB greater Interest than over,
and Evelyn wns tho first witness
called to tho stand.
Evelyn Confident.
Tho trial room ttllod rapidly, and
Evelyn's appenranco didn't indlcato
that sho had nny great fear of tho
awaiting ordeal. Bho had evidently
gained courngo by her hucccss yos
torday. Joromo .preceded all tho
other lnwyors and entered court
J Bmlltnglybnndentr--Thaw' entered
carrying- a hunch of newspaper cup
pings of the provlous day's proceed
ings. For tho first tlmo bIiico his
arrest ho called n newspaper man
to dlBcusH tho case nd moroly to
protest ngalnst nn article which ap
peared this morning, commenting
on Evelyn's forgctfulness.
"It'B not exactly JuHt to hor, you
know," ho said. "Sho had llttlo to
do with drawing thoso fundB from
tho trust compnny."
A brlof conBultntlon of tho attor
neys on both sides was hold with
tho court, when It wns announced
thnt court would adjourn this after
noon until aftor Washington's blrth-
1 day. Tho trial will probably not bo
resumed boforo Mondny.
I Evelyn was called aftor tho con
ference and appeared In tho same
bluo dress, her fnco slightly pulor.
Her hair was Bomownai louBoieu, oui
her volco was Btrongor and hor re
plies moro certain.
About the "Dead nut."
Joromo road tho record of tho ex
amination later yesterday to tho ef
fect that Evolyn bolloved all women
bad until Bho was 18 years old,
until sho tnlked with Thaw, after
refusing him on account of her own
"unworthlness."
"Did you over hear of tho "dead
rat?" naked Jerome.
"Yes, It's a, cafo In Paris."
"Is It reputable?" '
"I do not know."
"Woro you over there?"
"Yes; people wero eating and
drinking, and Borne danced. I think
It roputablo. I was thero about 2
o'clock In tho morning. Tho dance
was Russian."
Jcromo questioned her further
about the cafe. Evolyn Bald sho wns
Buro she saw ono Russian dance.
"Thero may have been a cakewalk,
also."
Jerome showed that ho had ob
tained ono of Thaw's letters from
Paris. The witness Bald that Bbubert
and another theatrical manager
wero with her and Thaw at tho
"Dead Rat." Sho believed some
women were with Shubert,
Jeromo reading, evidently from
Thaw's letter, aaked, "Do you know
what is meant by 'Many of the bunch
on tho tenderlola?' "
"I think i do," said the witness.
Bvelya MtmIcs Iqwn.
Evelyn 1)roko dows and wept
while telllag of her second vlalt to
White's studio. She said it was
against her will.

Jornma hasted EvslVB the letter
froa which he hd V reading &
nsked hor It It was Thaw's handwrit
ing. Sho Identified It ns Bitch.
"When you wero in Paris aftor
Thaw's proposal you had your opin
ion chnngod, did you?" i
"Yob, I knew peoplo thought It
wnB wrong, but I suspuctod all
women."
Further questions brought tho ad
mission thnt at tho tlmo she wns
In Paris with Thaw sho had no re
ligious belief, and that sho did not
boltovo In tho existence- of n dlvlno
being. She said that whllo sho was
living In Pittsburg Bho neither at
tended Sunday school nor church.
She said thnt boforo leaving Pnrls
alio hnd como to n full realization
of tho awful character of tho wrong
Whlto hnd dono to her, thnt hor ov
ory womanly Instinct wns shocked
by this realization.
Termini Ik Outwitted.
Delmns and Joromo had n llvoly
tilt over what Delmns described iih a
sneer In Jcromo's tono, nH he ques
tioned Evelyn as to what prompted
hor ronunclntlon of Thaw's love. "If
this Is truo thero can bo no occnBlon
for' a Bneor, for 1 never heard its
oqiml."
Jerome, resuming tho examina
tion, naked: "Was your reason for
renouncing Thaw's proposal morely
becatiBO of a feeling thnt you were
unvorthy?"
','It wnB bocause I was found out,"
Bald Evolyn, changing her tactics
from tho day before, when Bho Bald

"White,"
"When did

Whlto?"
"When Thaw told mo."
Evolyn said sho quarreled with
Whlto bocnuso after Thaw opened
her-oyes uho realized what tho archi
tect's treatment monnt to hor. Je
romo questioned heY closoly nbout
why Bho wrote Whlto from Boulogne
Sho said her mother coerced hor to
writ, and .thnt White's extraordinary
personality had a fascinating effect
upon her. "In ono way," alio snld,
"hor mother didn't know of tho
wrongs."
Tour Disarm Jerome.
Tho nnmo of tho man Evelyn mot
In tho studio wns not mndo public,

Ho said ho would call the mnn for n
iprlvato examination, and establish
tho dato. The prosecutor was ro

statement that sho wont to Whlto's
studio nvithln a month after her ru
ination, and continued hor relations
with White until early In 1902. It
was against her will, Bho Insisted.
When Jeromo demanded the details
of tho first occasion after tho origin

her fnco with her handkerchief and
cried. Jeromo wns disarmed. Sever
al women writers left tho room af

In January, 1902, Evelyn said
sho had no improper relations with
White, and thereafter he alwayB
