SHERBROOKE, Ontario, Aug. William Travers Jerome, the ex District-Attorney who tried Thaw twice for Stanford White's murder nd finally sent him to the asylum mor the criminal insane, :ade this declaration this afternoon: “In these times of eoclalistic ten- dencies, Thaw's continued freedom would be a real menace. Already you hear it said that Thaw's money, the Thaw millions, were responsible for his escape and that they will suffice to keep him free, ‘A rich man can do anything, what chance would @ poor man have?” is a phrase you hear constantly in connection with Taaw. It is up to New York State to show the world that rich or poor, 8 criminal staud» the same in the eyes of the law. “What do you suppose New York State wants with Thaw, a degenerate and an Insane man? Why, I have ex- hibits here with mo now that must convince any one who sees them of one of two things: elther Thaw ts in-) e and therefore undesirable, or else e is sane and consequently even less to be desired here. THAW’S RICHES KEEP HIM PRISON. “We would let Canada keep Thaw ‘f we could, We would have thrown open the doors of Matteawan long since had we not realized that Thaw must nit be permitted to pose before the ae & man Whose money has saved hin from punishment a poorer man would have suffered, “We don't want Thaw per se, vut ethically, we are bound to do our utmost to get him, It would never do in these Socialistic times to allow the hue and ery to be raised that money had lib- erated him.’ “He has been posing up here as @ martyr. The Canadian people think bim as a sufferer who is being pers cuted by a Kreat State, I wish I could Jet the Canadian people know that Thaw mot belng persecuted, that we were @eiven of necessity to carry him bac ead that we want him just as little be wants to come. That Is what Canada @hould know and 1 hope I'll be able to find the means to tell It." fFhaw's many lawyers, fearful leat ee hurt his case with the erratic eenduct of his self-planned pre: campaign, shut him off from all inte! viewers to-day. They obtained from tho Gheriff an order to the Governor of Gherbrooke jail to the effect that no ene should see Thaw except in the Presence of some one of his counsi ‘The order serves two purposes.

Mrs, Harry Thaw appeared before Ref- eree Dexter shortly before 11 o'clock, ac- companied by her attorneys, John Reilly and Maurice L. Shaine, The attorney for the creditors made an effort to have the witness give the exact date when Thaw ceased to pay her the usual allowance, Evelyn ap- peared to be unable to fix the date, and her attitude caused Attorney Offenbach to question her very sharply. At this point both the witness and the attorney became quite angry, and Referee Dextor had to warn both to keep their temper. “JUST LIVED ON MONEY,” SAYS THE WITNESS. “What became of a” the funds which Mr. Thaw has provided you with?” was anked the witness, “Why, I just ved the witness Ingenuo!
