. ij. Lx.il CLOCKS DEFENSE (Continued from Page One.) l M it u Intended to ihow a col literal condition of Thaw's relative l ha relative descended irom common ancestry. Alfred Lee Thaw i a man of therein dark eyes. Hla forehead is contracted in a continual frown, His black moustache li close ly trimmed and black hair brushed well ..lack from the forehead. Mn Gleason said he wanted to prove the hereditary phase of Thaw's insanity and could trace It back to a common ancestry with the witness father. It ras not necessary or comempiaieo by the law that It should be proved a man's father or grandfather were Insane to establish hereditary insan ity. ' District Attorney Jerome argued In reply that the witness wag not a com petent person to testify as 10 insan ity In the family of the defendant It - was necessary, he said, to go back to dhe great grandfather land momer . of the witness and the defendant to . reach common blood. On the two , collateral branches of the family four seoarate stocks had been blend , ed with the birth of the witness and the defendant i AT DR. WILEY'S EXPENSE. "I infer from the opening address of the defense." said Mr. Jerome, "that they expect to prove by this - witness that his father died In an asylum or some retreat for the insane. . The fact that a man dies In an asy- . lum is not proof of his Insanity. The law does not recornize It. The fact . that a man dies In an asylum llko that conducted by the eminent Dr. Wiley, who was on the atand to-day, for Instance, does not prove he was Insane." Justice FlUgerald said he felt con strained to adhere to his decision sus taining the district attorney's objec v tlon for the present. He would take 1 the authorities cited by Thaw's coun : set under consideration. He thought ' closer relative than the witness . should be offered as a witness. "Did you see your father In an asylum for the Inanne?" asked Mr. Gleason. Mr. Jerome again objected to the (juts'tlon. WITNESSES RULED OUT. "In the present condition of flic record and at this stage of the trial, I sustain the objection," ruled Justice Fitzgerald. The witness was excused for the present. The defense next Introduced as a witness Benjamin H -man, who testified that in January, H'I4, he had a conversation with the defendant. He was about to tell what the conversation was when Mr. Jerome interrupted, declaring a con versation so far back was not rele vant or material. Justice Fitzgerald again called upon Thaw's attorneys for citations of authorities covering the Introduction of testimony of the chaiacter proposed. "W. did not expect to reach this witness to-day," explained Mr. Glea son, "and I have not my authorities here." Justice Fitzgerald sustained Mr. Jerome's objections and the witness Stepped aside. FAMILY PHYSICIAN'S TESTIMONY Dr. C. H. Bingaman, of Pittsburg, who has been a family physician of the Thaws for 30 years, took the stand and testified that he had known Harry Thaw ever since his infancy. He had treated him once for St. Vitus dance. He seemed to be a lad of a highly nervous temperament and slept hadly at night, al,l the wit ies. Mr. Jerome's cros-examlnatlon was brief. "How old was the defendant when bo had St. Vitus dance?" he asked. "Seven." "That Is all, doctor." Dr. John F. Imar, of Klttsnnlng, Pa., the family physlelan of the fop. leys, Mrs. William Thaw, the pris oner's mother, having; been a Mlas Copley, was the lant witness of the day. He wan called to testify as to the mental condition of John Ross, a cousin of Harry Thaw, when Mr. Je rome objected Justice Fitzgerald held that until ths defense's authori ties on the Introduction of testimony as to collateral Itiaanlty were pre sented, he thought It liet to rule out all such testimony for the time lieln. It was at this point t tin t the adjourn ment until to-morrow wn ordered. ALL WITNESSES EXfLt'OKD. The order for the exrlualnn of all witnesses which on yesterday drovo Mrs. arry Thaw und Mrs William Thaw from the court room remained In force to-day with the ruaull that the second row of four chairs Just back of tthe prisoner's, which hereto fore have been reserved for his fami ly, have been turned over to those whose business gave them the privi lege of atteridlnK 'he trial. Joslah Thaw was the only member Of the defendant's family In court. Harry Thaw on entering seemed to mlsa the smile of welcome whl'h each morning- In the past his wife had bestowed upon him. It Is apparent that the defendant pends on his wife to turn th tide for him. It win be her wrongs, If there were nny, which will Impress the Jury Ihuw . llevi nho show that any man placed In the circumstances whre he found him self might have lost his ment-.' bal ance, snd aete.i as h did. Upon the 'ffect of her story, baring the whole of her past life, the prisoner's fMe in large measure r"i though th pic ture of his wht' haired, Iderly fnother taking t h- wtrn sti.nd t' save her son from a felon's iath Is xpected to have a weight with the Jury which only mnn with a vener- ble mother ran appreciate.

Thaw Is being tried for the murdor of Stanford White adjourned to-day, when there was a conference of the defendant's counsel and it be came known that certain of tho at torneys wera not pleased with the day's developments. Delphin M. Delmaa on leaving the court room declared flatly that he was dissatis fied with tho day's proceedings and intimated that be was surprised that the conduct of the defense for the dary had been entrusted to John B. Gleason rather than to himself.' , Df. Charles C, Wiley, the Pitts. burg physician who testified for the defense and was so sharply cross examined by District Attorney Je rome, should not have been put on the stand to-day, Mr, Delmaa, said, and perhaps should not have been put on the stand at all. 4- "I expected to go on and conduct the case to-day," Mr. ; Delmaa added. "I was surprised that Mr. Gleason should have done It." It had been rumored in the court room that Thaw was pleased with Mr. Gleason's address to the Jury on Monday and that he directed that Mr. Gleason should take charge of the case to-day. Thaw's attorneys were closeted at Attorney McPlke's office well Into the evening and when the conference broke up nothing definite as to what transpired waa made public. MR. D ELM AS SILENT. When Mr. Delmaa waa aaked what had been done at the conference, he replied: "I can say nothing at the present tioie." Mr. O Rellly" reply was: "There was a conference, that's all.. Nothing of importance happened." Messrs. Hartrldge and Oleason re fused to discuss the matter. After the lawyers had left, Mr. Mc- Plke remained for some time In his office. He said: "The lawyers for the defense held a conference, at which the plans were gone over. There was really nothing of Importance done." After the trial had adjourned Law yer McPIke visited Thaw In the Tombs. He talked with the prisoner for about 15 minutes and when he left he refused to make any state ment. Later a note was sent to the prisoner asking him if the report that his lawyers had disagreed was true and his reply was: REPORT ALL NONSENSE. "No, there is no truth in the re port. It Is all nonsense." Thaw did not annear worn from his tedious day In court. If ho was disappointed In the proceedings he did not give evidence of the fact. He waa taken from the court room by a deputy sheriff and when ho reached the Tombs he asked permission 10 walk ud and down the prison ysrd for a few minutes. The request was granted and after five minutes of tramping In the cold air, Thaw an nounced that he was satisfied and felt benefited by the brisk walk. He then mounted the prison steps tnree a Jump. Asked what he thougnt of the day In court, he replied tnai he day had been "apparently satis factory." Mn.
