Her story began with the period immediately following her return from Europe in October, 1903, and was brought down to the return of the girl and her husband to New York after their honeymoon days in 1905, when she said Stanford White had called to her upon the street and attempted to sjteak to her. Mrs. Thaw declared that Harry Thaw had accused her once of having improper rela1 tions with Mr. White after her return to the United Ktates, but she told him, It is u lie. have not. She said Stanford White bad tried to kiss her and had begged her to come and see him alone, but she would not. lie had then visited her on pretext that it was a matter of life and death, and had ronspired with Abe Hummel to procure her assistance in keeping Harry Thaw out of New York nnd away from her. Mrs. Thaw told of going to Uummels office with Stanford White. The lawyer put in a paper a lot of stuff about my being carried off by Harry Thaw against my will and a lot of stuff that was nut true. I signed absolutely nothing in Mr. Hummel's office, said Mrs. office. She said that White tried in vain many times to have her come to see him alone. He cried and said I was not a human bring." Mrs. Thaw testified that White made several attempts to renew friendhip with her after her marriage to Thaw. Mie tohl her husbaud and he was very angry. Mrs. Thaw testified that one day in White's studio Jack Barrymore uked if she would many him. Khe replied she did not know. Mr. Jerome objected tins afternoon to the further Defamation bring thrown on the dfld who have no chance to answer." Mr. Delmaa had asked Mrs. ThawT if Thaw had told her the fate of other girls at the hands of this man White when Jerome objected. Justice Fitzgerald announced that further competent evidence as to Thaw's insanity should be introduced before, fart her testimony along today's line was taken. We are ready to submit the proof, said Mr. Dolmas. The line of examination was then changed and Mrs. Thaw was asked to identify more letters. Mrs. Thaw testified she told Harry K. Thaw that other girls met a fate similar to hers through Stanford White. Mrs. Thaw was temporarily excused and Miss Frauces Pierce was called to the stand.

"They put In that I had been taken awar from my mother, that I bad been badly treated by Mr. Thaw. Then they lent the man out of the room. Beveral days later Mr. Hummel called me up and asked If I had any letters from Mr. Thaw. I Mid I did but I could not eee what that had to do with It. Mr. White alio palled up and said i. I was'lfot willing to help In every war they eottld not protect me from Thaw. He Mid I must do Just what Mr. Hummel said. I made the letter up tn a bundle end took them to Mr. Hummel'a dlfire.
