SQTJARK DEAL FOR DEAD MEN. , Tha progress of the Thaw trial 'w had very nearly said the White trial, for nobody except hia imme diate relative carea much about the fate of t'ne creature under indictment 'except aa It bear upon other isauea, ' j i chiefly the memory of the eminent ' ' Architect whom he murdered aervea ' 1 ,te ahow that It la easier for a camol v. to go through tha eye of a needle at a galop than for a dead man to 'get Justice in a case of thla kind. '1 ' 'jot only, aa evidenced by the re - ;wlU of murder trlala In thla coun try, la public sympathy almost al- Vays wlfn the living man without much regard to the circumstances, but where any pretext can be found for the new-fangled- plea of "emo tional Insanity" the proceedings be. ome one-Hided In an extreme degree. Under this plea the usual tactlca of the defense are to heap defamation upon fhe deceased to show that his slayer had or thought he nad such a grlev ' ance against him as would temporarily upset reason, especially If not far from the borderground of sanity at the best. Since It Is not necessary to prove that this alleged grievance was Iq whole or In any part true, but only that the defendant may have be lieved It to be true, the rule of evi dence can be Invoked to prevent the altering of any testimony In rebuttal. Th prosecution Is thus badly crip pled, and wnore the person who tails tha terrible tale la a beautiful and Weeping woman who represents her self to have been lha victim of an anspeakable outrage the case la al most hopeless. It matters little that ba has been a tough citizen for years and that no lawyer or any one laa accustomed to weigh evidence be lieve that her story In anything but An Invention In It principal fea ture the narrative cannot be con troverted and fall upon the ear of public, and presumably a jury. enly too much disposed In advance to believe It What JMMrU t Attorney Jerome called "the loo., tutlle of the Tenderloin" will probably be, Intro duced also.

Including some of the beat and most respected men in New York city, deny that his relations with chorus girls went further than giving them champagne uppers, and It appeara to be a fact that the private detectives whom Thaw kept on hia trail for two years before killing him reported o evidence of eerious improprieties. Still, he was a man about town In his leisure hours, and, whether or not the behavior of hia later years was bet tsr, had doubtless been a good deal of i rake. Many men have been killed who deserved killing less and It is ur candid opinion that if the crea ture who flred the fatal shot were n turn put to death justice wouajt ailss its mark very far.

Interesting story of 'Henderson, Who Got Prescription and of Defendant Vary Widely More Fnn Than a Barrel of Mon key. : - ' The enlra time ,'of the , Superior Court (yesterday wab given to the trial of two Interesting' cases': and neither one la aettled. The first, that Of Mame Maaser. colored. eharri1 with flaying her husband, Dave Ma ney, was taken up yesterday morning and placed in the hands of the Jury m llttle after i o'clock in the after noon. The Jury has not vet haan able to agree on a verdict aa to thai guiit or innocence of the woman. The second case, that of Dr, W, 8. gaiason, onargea Wlthvtolatlngthe Watts law, waa taken un fcnmedi. ately on the readjournment of court yesterday afternoon, at J:30, and when -adjournment for the, day waa ta ,n. the cross-examination of Dr. TJavtdson had not been concluded.1 CLAIMED MURDER IN THE SEC OND DEGREE. At the opening of the Massey case Solicitor Clarkeon announced that the State would not contend for mur der In the first degree, but would ask for a verdict of murder In the second degree. Counsel for the defense an nounced that they would not Intro duce any evidence whatever, resting their claim for an acquittal on the burden of proof being on the State, a burden which, they said, the State had utterly failed to bear. The de fendant Is represented by Messrs. McNInch A Klrkpatrlck. The first witnesses summoned re lated the story of the tragedy, which occurred some months ago, on Third street, between Mint and Graham. It was brought out that on that night Dave Massey, the husband of Mame, had had a quarrel with her at the home of his sister, who lived about a block away. Dave Massey then loft. A short time thereafter a pistol shot was heard In the direction of Massey's house and the woman was seen running about In the yard proclaiming that her husband had been shot. Massey ran from a yard nearby, fell and died In a short time. A pistol was found in his hand. Solicitor Clarkson, who opened for the State, contended that motive had been shown by proving the fact of the previous quarrel. She had prob ably followed Dave back to the house, said he, the quarrel had been renewed and she ahot him. Mr. McNInch, who made the only peech for the defense, contended that the State had failed to make out a case. The fjact of motive, said ne, even IT motive had been shown, counted little. It would have to be shown to be continuous up to the moment of the deed. Not only must it be shown that she possessed tho opportunity to commit the crime, but that she poHsesscd the exclusive opportunity. The fact that she pos sessed the means must also be prov en. It had not even been shown, the defense contended, that any person had killed Massey. At the conclusion of his speech Judge Justice charged the Jury. It was admitted by both sides, said he, that a shot was fired; that Dave Mag He y Is dead; that the shot was the cause of the man's death; the case hinged, therefore, on this question: did Mame Massey Are that shot? If she did, a verdict of guilty of mur der In the second degrea should be returned. If, on the other hand, the Jury iVas able to form any reasonable hypothesis of the situation consist ent with the woman's Innocence, or If at the conclusion of the case the minds of the members of the Jury were In a state of doubt as to the defendant's guilt, a verdict of not guilty should be rendered. The Jury slept on the case last night. The case Is a very mysterious one and It is not very surprising that It should tangle the Jury. THE CASE OF DR. W. 8. DAVIDf SON. The court house was well filled at 2:30 when the case of Dr. Davidson was called and It was fuller when ad journment waa taken. The charge la that on February 10th. Dr. Davidson wrote a prescription for whiskey for Mr R. E. Henderson, when the lat ter' physical condition did not make the prescription necessary. Mr. Henderson was the first wit ness for the State. He Is a resident of Dllworth. He said that on the 10th he was in company with two friends, Dlackwelder and Kimball. They decided that they would like to have some whiskey, and Henderson volunteered to get some, saying he would go to Dr. Davidson's office. He went to the office, he said. Two ladles were In the office. The doctor took him Into another room and aald to him. "Vou want a prescription, don't you." He replied, "Yes, sir." He told his name and the physician started to write the prescription, but later stopped and said, "Let me feel your pulse." Dr. Davidson felt his pulse, looked at his tongue, finished writ ing tha prescription and gave It to him. "Were you sick or were you healthy?" asked counsel for the pros ecution. ' "I ws healthy." admitted the wit ness, somewhat sheepishly. i m cross-examination the witness stated that he turned the slip of pa per over to Kimball, who got It filled. Ho denied that ho had told Dr. Da vidson that he was suffering from rheumatism. He was shown a pre scription, but denied that he had ever got any other than the one on this afternoon. The parly got "tight" (he denied that they wero drunk) on the liquor and were pulled. They were tried by 'Squire Hilton, who asked where they got the whiskey, it was thus that the caso got In court He was fined 140 and the costs. This he has not paid, because it waa not due. Two witnesses then testified to the good character of Mr. Henderson. Mr. Kimball was put on and corrob orated the evidence of the first wit ness In so far as they were connect ed, but Henderson was alone when h went to get tho prescription. Mr. Robert Moody, prescription clerk at the store of the Charlotte Drug Company, identified the pre scription Introduced aa the one Which brought about the trouble. Another one was handed to him by the de fense for htm to say whether or not he had filled It also, but the prosecu tion objected to this as being at least premature. The defence agreed to re tain thla till a later stage of the game. The second prescription pur ports to be one which the defense will oontend .waa issued by Dr. Da vidson to the same Individual on the Tth. three days before the one In Young married people and eld ens teev to laugh atad Thai have ne ehil rind tbstr troubles win Tittle ene be, U they take Reeky Itotiatale Tee, rt,.,) J,Jftf..kll deseed.

The defendant physician then took the stand, the first witness for the defense. . , ' v "How long have you known Mr. Henderson?" asked Attorney J. A. McRae, who is conducting the exam ination. ; v :.. : ', 4 - .-v. "About 11 months,' waa the reply. Dr. Davidson then proceeded to tell how the prescription waa written. Henderson came Into hia office, he he said, one day and declared that he was suffering from malaria. He had prescribed arsenic, whiskey: and quinine. He had exhibited symptoms of malaria. Several days later he had come back, complaining again. This time the : doctor prescribed . another quart of whiskey and more arsenic and quinine, and asked Henderson to allow hinv to make microscopio analyst of hia , blood. Henderson waa not willing to have any of his blood taken out. But he said he was sick and bad eick. He was riven direc tions for continuing the treatment On the day In question. Henderson came Into the office, where the la dles were. The doctor wanted to wait on the ladles first, but Henderson would not agree to this. He said he wag very sick. SoDr. Davidson took him into an adjoining room,' felt, hia putse and looked at his tongue. He told him he didn't believe he- had taken the arsenic and told him he ought not to have taken the whiskey without the arsenic. He then gave him the prescription, "Had you any Intention of violat ing the law 7" asked Mr. W. C. Max well, one of his attorneys. "None at all," was the reply. Attorney McRae, who had charge of the examination for the State, took up the cross-examination of the defendant. - "How long have you been prac ticing medicine in Charlotte?" waa asked. "I have been practicing In the suburbs of Charlotte for about 10 years," replied the doctor. "I didn't ask you that," said Mr. McRae. "I know you didn't," replied Dr. Davidson, "but I wanted you to know it Just the same." On a repetition of the question the witness stated that he had been lo cated in Charlotte proper since last July. DRUO STORE, R RECORDS PRO DUCED. The prosecutlcn then produced what purported to be the record kept by the different drug stores of the city, ef prescriptions filled, and start ed In to asking Dr. Davidson about each individual caso whether he knew the man to whom the prescrip tion was Issued, whether he remem bered Issuing the prescription on that day, etc. To this the defense prompt ly objected on the ground that the record of prescriptions was not com petent testimony and even though every one of them had been written In violation of law, they could not affect his guilt or Innocence in the caae on trial. There was a lengthy legal battle over this. The Judge fin ally admitted this not as substantive evidence, but as a basis for Impeach ing questions, since the veracity and good faith of the defendant were at stake and light might be thrown on these. The examination then proceeded, the counsel for the defence, Messrs. W. C. Maxwell and J. E. Little, re cording an exception to each ques tion. To many of the names Dr. Da vidson stated that he did not re call the Individual by name, but had practiced of members of that fam ily. He was not often certain as to what was done on a specific date. "Have you ever written as many as ISO whi.Mkey prescrlptlona in one week?" was asked. "I don't think so," he answered. "Do you remember issuing In an other week a many as 220 prescrip tions," was a-sked. Dr. Davidson could not answer positively about that. In one case counsel for the prose cution said that from the record lf appeared that he had written one patient a prescription for a quart and on the next day had duplicated this. "Do you often prescribe It that way for your patients," waa asked. "He broke the first quart," replied Dr. Davidson. About this time court adjourned for the dny. The testimony given by Henderson and Dr. Mivldson provoked much merriment. The crowd snickered every now and then. The State Claims that Dr. Davidson Issued more than 300 prescriptions durlnc Christmas week. The State Is represented by Solic itor Herlot Clarkson and Messrs. J. A. McRae. Plummer Stuart and Cam eron Morrison, while Dr. Davidson is in the hands of Messrs. W. C. Max well and J. E. Little.
