(By the Associated Press.) New York, , Feb. 6. Interest in the opening Of. the Thaw casQ today centered in the manoeuvers of coub sel for the defense, who at the end of yesterday's proceedings bad an earnest consultation among them selves as to the future conduct of the case. . It. was evidently decided to 4put the matter squarely up to the de fendant, and before the ' court ses sion began today all of the six law yers who have represented Thaw since the beginning of his trial went into the prisoners pen to discuss the matter with him. They were etlll in the pen when Justice Fitzgerald took the bench, when they 'filed Into -.. th.wurtjoom Along, with, the U . fondant. All the lawyers took their accustomed places at the 'counsel 'PR'! lable. ,. ' - Mother and Wife Alone Absent. The Countess of Yarmouth - ap peared In court this morntag for the first time in several days. She looked a trills pale. Along with, the count ess came Geerge Lauder. Carnegie and wife, another sister of the de- fondant. , Mr. - Edward and Josiah Thaw also were members of the fain ify circle today, the only absentees being Mrs. Vvllllam Thaw, the moth er and Mrs. Evelyn Nesblt Thaw, the wife of the defendant, both of whom are barred by the rule excluding wit nesses. . , When the court session began District Attorney Jerome stated that : upon . adjournment yesterday the .' - point was pending as to the admls ' slon of certain testimony by a wit ness who was about to state a con versation held with Thaw In Janu ary,. 1904. .. ' Dclinas Takes Charge. The court had sustained the objec tion t the Questioning Imposed by the dlblrlct attorney but had invited .' -the citation of authorities. Mr. Je ' rome was reading from a case which he declared applied, when Attornoy Delphin M. Delruaa arose and sug gested that a witness be placed upon the stand before the continuing of the proceedings. , - c , ;r '. It then became known that. Mr. Delmas was to assume active charge of the d3fense, whose case was handled yesterday, by Mr.- Gleason. It was said Mr. Delmas had dellv- -, ered an ultimatum that . h. would -withdraw from the case unless givon a free hand In conducting' the fight ;: for Thaw's life. The results of fp . terday's proceedings were anything ' but satisfying to all concerned in the case. , - , District Attorney -Jerome, repllod to -Mr. Delmas, that the1 matter Of ... allowing the witness Soman to state :, a conversation with the defendant - was pending yesterday and .should be finally decided before bringing In further evidence. 1 ' V Mr. : Dehnai thereupon - said ' he ;' . would withdraw the questionsaskcd the wltnasg which caused the bbjec- tlon to be -entered. .- This was agreed to. , ' " ,.'. - - . -v. Mr. Jerome: said he would' wlth . draw bis-objection to the Introdue- " tlon of evidence, tending to show la-j -nanny, in cuiiamrai urancnes oi ine 'Thaw family provided certain ques tions asked the witnesses offerod v.yeaterday were withdrawn. "We withdraw the anestlone," . enid Mr. Delmas, "and will go ovor ;; the matter again." Mr. v Delmas ; then directed that Benjamin Boman, whose testimony had been excluded . yesterday, 1e ..re pealled. .! ' ''-'.. ', Vv;- f Boman said that la 1903 he wat a door-keeper . at the roof garden theatre. w ' .."Did you ' ever- hear Stanford White make threats against the life of any person?" ; "Tes." . Mr. Jerome objected to this, say ing ha was npt assured the defense was to bs one i of self-defense. Mr. Delmas declared that every defense the law allowed was to be taken advantage of. 'Mr. Jerome withdrew his objec tions. "A few Rights after Christmas'," the - witness resumed, "Stanford White came up to me after the show and wanted to know If Miss Nesblt' had gone home. I told hint she had. He replied: 'You are a d llaf.' I told him to go back on the stage and see for himself. "When he returned, and as he passed me he pulled a pistol from his pocket and muttered: 'I'll find and kill that '- before day light." The witness Mated the vile name h) said White had applied to the man whose life he had threatened In a loud voice. , "Did you .communicate this threat to anyone?" asked Mr. Delmas. 'Yes; I told a detective sergeant." 'I object to that," said Mr. Je rome. "Did yoi communicate tbo threat to this defendant?" asked Mr. Del mas. Thaw Told of Threat. 'Yes,' I met him on Fifth avenue and told him I wanted to speak with him regarding Miss Nesblt. I than told him of tho incident at the thea tre- and of White's threat." 'What was Mr. White's condition when he made the threat?" "He was black In the' face with anger." District Attorney Jerome asked that the answer be stricken out; as Uuuuro&scAad- the court, so ordered,) "What was Mr. White's manner?" asked Mr. Delmas. , - "He was very angry." "You may take tho witness," re marked Thaw's counsel to ' the dis trict attorney, and the cross-examination was begun. At the conclusion of Boman's di rect ebaminatlon Justice Fitzgerald said: 1 'If there are any persons in the court room whose sense of propriety would be offended by the testimony of this witness the court will give them an opportunity to withdraw." We must ask the court to bear with us in bringing ou this testi mony," explained Mr. Delmas. "out it Is essential." ThaW's Sisters Loavp the Room. "It is perfectly right and proper," Justice Fitzgerald quickly assured the lawyer. "There are ladies here, however, and I think they should be given thp- opportunity to withdraw if they so desire."- The Countess of Yarmouth and Mrs. George L. Carnegie quickly left the court room. Mrs. Evelyn Nesblt Thaw and May MacKenzie arrived at the court house some time after the morning session had begun. District Attorney Jerome took the witness and for the better aprt of an hour questioned him closely as to his employment and places of resi dence for the- last five - years, at tempting to - secure numbers und other details. Thaw's sisters evidently , became reassured during the long and rather tedious cross-examination, for after George Carnegie had gone to them and: explained' the character of the testimony they , returned to .thslr places In the second .row of chairs back of the prisoner, i. j Harry .Thaw, v who- had shown alert interest ; during the testimony as to the threats said to have; boon made against him by Stanford White gave evidence of becoming fatigued and yawned several- times. The de fendant . today - seemed paler . than usual, r , i . ' . i , A FEDERAL INQUIRY , , .- ' , TO BE HELD AT CHICAGO. " (By the Associated Press. .

TO EXTEND THE CITY LIMITS The special committee from' the board of aldermen, appointed some Jjlme -since, to consider the proposed changes to the charter of the city of Raleigh and make- a report to the board of aldermen in regard to the same, met last night and wont over the situation fully. This committee has met on several occasions, but last hlgbt was the first tjme that anything definite has been decided upon. Tho principal matter under consid eration is the extension of the city Umlt3. The limits of Raleigh have not been extended In a number of years, and there are many who are strongly In favor of such a move ment. Those who reside just oht sido of tho present limits, many of vTuuiu iiavu wubut inujjw am " numup in ruceuL years, art) opposeu ut tho matter .on tho ground that It would bo unfair to throw out the boundaries of tho town and include them. y Tho committeo will recommend an extension of one-fourth of a mile north, oast and west. Another proposed change Is thei consolidation of the office ol clerk of tbo board of audit and finance and city clerk. T1(0 MEMBERS FIGHT TODAY This morning just before the house of representatives of the gen eral sassembly was called to order, there was an altercation between Dr. C. G. Bryant of Roaring River, representative from Wilkes county, and Mr. Frank W. Hanes of Yadkln vllle, representative from Yedkln county. Both members are republicans, and it Is understood that the diffi culty was not due to politics, but to some difference of a psrsonal nature between the two men. The affair took place in the ro tunda of the capitol building, In ths gallery Just outside the entrance to the hall of the house. Only one blow was struck, Dr. Bryant landing on Mr. Hanes' jaw. Friends at once separated the combatants. No damage was done, and the dif ference between the two members was amicably settled In a few min utes.

The committee's substitute for Mr. Bickett's bill, which is materially the same as the original measure, was taken up this morning. The bill, which was printed In The Evening Times in the early days of the ses sion, provides for the care of mental defectives in North Carolina. It calls for tho appointment of a commission by the governor with power to pur chase lands and erect buildings for the care of epileptics and idiots, and also for such additions to the present hospital grounds and buildings as may be deemed advisable, the funds for such purchase and building to he raised by a bond issue of $00,000. Tho bill came from the joint com mitteo Qn insane asylums with a unanimously favorable report, and was in fact the only bill on the sub ject considered by the committee. There was some little discussion as to whether the bill should go to the committee on appropriations before being passed on by the house. Finally Mr. Morton moved that the rule requiring reference to the ap propriations committeo bo suspended. Mr. Winborno opposed this, and Mr. Parsonr, favored it. Tho motion was lost for tho lack of the necessary two-thirds, and so the bill under tho nilo went to the com mitteo on appropriations. A Little Fun. There was a good bit of fun In the house over Mr. Avery's bill making it unlawful for any ono to use pro fane or indecent -or objectionable lan guage or be drunk on the public high ways or lands of another. The committee had amended It to' make It apply only to Burke county. Many members wanted , their coun ties included, and soma wanted theirs exempted, and, there was some con fusion, v.; . , X . ' .In the midst. oti Mr. Avery's ex planation of his bill, Mr. Stevens brought down "the house by putting the case; If a man should be driving along the highway and. a. hame-strlng break and the mule Rep oa his toe.
