COURT QUESTIONSWITNESS Refers to the ‘Accustion of “Exagger- ated Ego” and Asks Thaw If He Has Not Felt Durlng the Hearling ot His Case That He Could Handle . It Better Than the Attorneys in Charge. White Plains, N. Y., July 81.—Har- ry K. Thaw went on the stand for his final ordeal at the hands of District Attorney Jerome when his hearing Wwas resumed in the supreme court here. The district attorney atarted his examination along the lines that thus’ far have yielded his side the best re- sults. He probed #ato Thaw’s own ideas of his mental condition and con- trasted his answers with those of the fourteen alienists who at various times pronounced him insane. Thaw clung to his oft repeated phrase that he was not “medically” insane, al- though he might have been “legally” 50 when be killed White. Jerome was primed with the various opintons of the experts, hut Thaw seemed to have them just as accurately fixed in his mind and once or twice corrected the prosecutor. He admitted that some of the physicians may have been right. Others, he said, were ‘“mistaken.” One he declared “willfully presented a distorted verdict.” Thaw asked for the reports of sev- eral experts and pointed out several alleged inconsistencies in their testi- n.ony. “Well,” began Jerome, all these trained speclalists thought you were insane.” “Not all of them,” interrupted Thaw, “I don't think Dr. Hamilton and Dr. White did.” - Thaw said that the allenjsts thought he suffered from “defective reason” and Jerome jumped at his chance. Question Staggers Thaw. “What did they mean by ‘defective reason? “I think the term explains itself.” “Explain. it,” -insisted Jerome. “What do you think it means?” Thaw looked down and was unable to find words to frame his reply. Mr. Morschauser asked a word with his client and Jerome protested: “This kind of thing has gone on from “here were ‘who LAWYER MORSCHAUSER. the fifst. This man gets up in the air and his counsel interrupts to give him a chance to recover himself.” “What ever Judge Morschauser may have said in his decision,” asserted Thaw, “I know that ke thinks now I am perfectly sane, for I talked with him two weeks ago and he said so.” “Bxplain what you mean when you say you are ‘legally sane,”” repeated Jerome. “I am of the same opinion as I am told the jury and as all the medical men who have examined me in the last three years are and as I know Judge Morschauser is—that I am now sane and there is no danger of the recurrence of my trouble.” Thinks He Was Legally Insane. “Do you think you were legally in- sane when you killed White?” “That is my best opinion, but I don’t know.” “What do you mean by being in- sane?”’ “Defective reason,” replied Thaw and found too late that he had brought the discussion right back to its former troublesome question. “What is ‘defective reason?’ ” flashed Jerome. Thaw pondered and finally an- swered: “Not belng responsible for my acts.” Speaking of the alienists the wit- ness remarked: “You can’t blame them for doing their best to make out a good case for me. They were being well paid for it.” N The district attorney suddenly switched to the testimony of Clifford ‘W. Hartridge and Susan Merrill. Thaw denied that he had ever rented rooms at the latter's houses. “Do you think you were innocent or guilty when you killed White?" asked Jerome, nimbly jumping back again. Justice Mills put the question this way: “Do you think you are now an innocent man in the eyes of the law?” “As the law s lald down for a Jury,” answered Thaw, “I think I am innocent.” Jerome asked about the story that he once scalded a girl in a hot bath tub and that he had taken a girl named Ruth Lambert automobiling in Paris and brought her back naked, with welts from a beating. “Crazy lles” said Thaw, contemptu- ously. Refreshing his memory from a man- uscript in his hands the district atter- ney recalled other scandalous stories about the witness that came out dur- | . ing suggestions. ing his trials. Thaw’s comment was the same: “Lies.” Tales of cruelty in early youth— .beating a boy and driving a horse to death, the former told the sanity com- mission by a cousin named Lyons, the latter by his brother, Josiah Thaw— the witness likewise denfed. His ex- planation was that his relatives in their zeal to save him on the insanity plea might have used or exaggerated “mere rumors.” Known as “Mad Harry.” “Wasn’t it true that you were known as “Mad Harry?” questioned Jerome. “Yes, I might have been called that; but.the same thing may be true of almost anybody. For instance I've heard you called ‘Crazy Jerome,’ but for that reason I don’t think you are insane.” ‘When Jerome completed his exam- ination Justice Mills went to -the heart of the case ‘with a series of questions principally in regard to Thaw's frequent change of counsel. The judge said: ““They are going to argue to me that all the way through you have exhibie- ed an ‘exaggerated ego.’ I have been observing you. Yon have had the as- sistance of one of the ablest lawyers in the country. I have observed you constantly interrupting him and mak- You have constantly changed your counsel before this. Why don’t you trust Mr. Morschau- ser?” “I do,” said Thaw, hastily. “Why didn't you traust your other lawyers, you, a man unlearned in the law. Haven’t you felt all the way through that you were better able to conduct this case?” “No, sir,” answered Thaw, “although I might have in the case of Mr. Hart- ridg2.” ALLEGED DEFAULTER RETURNS HOME Refuses to- Discuss Charges Made Against Him. Tipton, Ind, July 31.—Noah R. Marker, assistant cashier of the First National bank, appeared at his home in this city after having been missing since last Saturday evening, when, it is charged, he carried away with him $60,000 of the bank’s funds. Marker’s family and friends at once gathered about him. On the advice of his attorneys neither he nor his brother, William N. Marker, until lately cashier of the bank, would dis- cuss the allegations -of defalcation. Noah Marker would only say he had been in St. Louis. A crowd of towns- people assembled at his home and he held a reception on his porch. Friends and acquaintances shook his hand and congratulated him on his re- turn. Many business men assured him of their support. Later in the day Noah Marker was arrested by a deputy United States marshal. He would not discuss the charges against him and did not of- fer a solution of the mystery of the disappearance of $60,000 cash from the vault of the bank a few hours be- fore his disappearance.

PAYNE PRESENTS REPORT Work of Cenferees Is Submitted, but Under the Rules Consideration Goes Over for a Day—Republicans Loud- ly Applaud the Chairman of the Ways and Means Committee When Report Is Made. > ‘Washington, July 31.—Back once again to the place where it originated the tariff blll accompanied by the re- port of the cenferees, was up for con- sideration in the house. There was apparent on all sides a feeling of re lief that the long drawn out contest was about to come to a close, even though it had brought its disappoint- ments and. in many instances sadness and gloom. In a general way the members had previous knowledge of the fate of their pet propositions and they freely discussed the situation with ther colleagues, who gathered in groups in various parts of the cham- ber. A moment after the house con vened Chairman Payne took his seat. He did not wear any too pleased an expression and seemed impatient for the routine businoss to be disposed of. There was a quite full attendance on both sides of the house, while the galleries were well filled. The heat in the chamber was intense, but so great was the interest in the tariff bill that no one seemed to notice it. The Republicans broke into loud ap. planse when Chairman Payne pre sented the conference report, as he did only a minute or two after the house convened. Under the rule it went over for a day for printing in the record. A wrangle ensued over the number of copies of the bill which should be printed for general use and where they -should go for distribution. Mr. Clark (Mo.) wanted them sent to the folding room, which would make them subject to the order of the members. Perpetual Resting Place. His proposition was met by Mr. Mann (Ill) with the statement that if the copies went to the folding rodbm they would find a perpetual resting place, as had many copies of the Mec- Kinley, Wilson and Dingley bills. +“I am not certain,” interjected Mr. Clark, amid laughter, “but that would be the best disposition of the whole bill.” During ths discussion Mr. Latta, one of the president’s secretaries, ap- peared in the hall with an executive communication. Ordinarily, business is promptly suspended until such com- munications are formally presented, but he was compelled to wait ten minutes before being recognized. It was expected that Chairman Payne would make an official state- ment in connection with the report, but he postponed doing so after hav- ing first explained that he had pre- pared a personal statement. This he asked to have printed as an official document, but owing to objection from the Democratic side he was unsuc- cessful in that respect. It is prob- able that Mr. Clark will prepare a statement showing the Democratic view and that the two views will be printed together as one document. Gosslp was to the effect that there would be no such revolt in the house against the adoption of the report as had been anticipated. It is known that several prominent Republicans will manifest their displeasure over certain portions of the report by vot- ing against the report, but this ac- tlon Is not interpreted as an insurgent movement and no fears are enter- tained that the report will not sue- cessfully run the gauntlet of attacks.

Taft expressed himself as immensely pleased with the tariff bill as it was finally agreed to by the conferees. It is known that he is not entirely sat- isfied with all of the bill and he told several of his callers that it would be the greatest miracle of the age if a tariff bill could be designed that ‘would please everybody. The president declared that there were a great many things about the bill that he was delighted to have had a part in and that he would be equally delighted to sign and defend the measure in its finished state. . President Taft made it plain, in dis- cussing the tariff, that he was invited into the conference before he attempt- ed to give the advice which finally brought about a settlement of the con- troverted points. In addition to in- viting the views of the president the conferees went so far as to take votes on certain schedules, the decision thus reached to stand only in the event of its meeting the president’s approval. If the president disapproved the con- ferees were to report back and open the subject again. In this way the president’s aid was sought and it is said he did not at any time volun- tarily rush in to tell the conferees what they should de.
