Mrs. Thaw Again Made The Victim of Jerome's Merciless Questions Again the District Attor-1 ney Opens his Merciless, Fusilade oj Cross-Ques- > tions Into Life of Mrs. Thaw. She Stands the Humili ation Admirably. More Rumors as to Lunacy Commission and Plans, oj the Prosecution. New York, Feb. 25. Jerome v. ill continue his cross-examination of ±ilro. Evelyn Thaw, according to a late an nouncement, unless something shall arise at the last minuto to make him change his mind. j The reports say he will eventually ask for the appointment of a commis sion in lunacy are believd to be well founded, bat Jerome, it is said, will not make this application until when he deems the proper time arrives. Mrs. Thaw on Stand. Mrs. Evelyn Thaw resumed the stand. Jerome asked if she had not had trouble with her mother in Alle giieney before going to Philadelphia to live. She said no. | Answering Jerome she said it might have been a month after the "drugging in the 2-ith street house that an account was opened in an Am sterdam bank for her by White. Searching Questions. Jerome continued to hold a menace ' of documentary evidence before the i witness. "Had you gone to supper with Fran-1 cis Belmont before you met White?" j "No." , a i Mrs. Thaw identified a letter signed by Whito directing his secretary to send Evelyn $25 \m;kly and SIOO ad ditionai when she went on a vacation. She testified she first met Tha.w. at a dinner given by Thaw at Rector's, j She was taken to the dinner by an other girl. | Replying to Jerome she said Thaw was perfectly rational at that dinner. She said Thaw during the first weeks cf her acquaintance, on one occasion sent her money with flowers at a the atre. She said indignantly that she was not in The habit of receiving mon ey from men. Mrs. Thaw said she knew it was al ways dono at the theatre, bet said she sent it back and asked Thaw not to do so again. The amount was ?50. He appclcgized. Conncctsd With Barryrr.ore. Mrs. Thaw said she had often .been to supper with George W. Ledorer and Jack Barrymore. Confronted by Dr. Carlton Flint she denied she had evor seen him or gone to him with Jack Barrymore. The court ruled out the question when sho was asked by Jerome if White urged her to have Jack Barry more arrested on the charge of se ducticn. In telling of her trip to Europe the witness said she only used White's let ter cf credit and it was for her moth er. She got all of it. Thaw had said; the money was poison. Relations With Thaw. Mrs. Thaw said the first sho heard of Mrs. Caine's story about Thaw's proposal / to her mother was three weeks ago. Jerome asked if she had understood Thaw was paying "honorable court" to her. She declared she didn't know whether Thaw had matrimonial inten tions during the first period of their acquaintance or not. Up to February 1902 the witness had not observed anything irrational about Thaw. He had not proposed marriage to her, and his attentions were not more marked than those of other men. Her Story Continued. With regard to cabling White from London, Mrs. Thaw declared it had to do with her mother and an attache of the American embassy in London. This attache she said, had, "sneaked up to my mother's bed room and in sulted her." Mrs. Thaw denied that the cablegram had any thing to do wltfc her going to Europe with Thaw. Mrs. Thaw said this same man had insulted her in London also. When she told Thaw of the incident he went to see the man but could not find him. Thaw was not armed; he never carried a pistol except in New York. She denied Thaw drew a pistol in a Paris restaurant when she was K ff.

"He said the money was filthy ana 'poisonous and that I must never touch :it again," said Mrs. Hhaw. "He said he would take it so I could not use it. He said he would give me anything I wanted and if mama wanted anything she would only have to ask for it. Jerome gave Mrs. Thaw an oppor tunity to explain a number of things which had appeared very much against her and the defendant. Culpeper, Va., February 25.
