(Special Dispatch to Daily Alaskan)
Xew York, Feb 29? William Travers
Jerome be^an his cross-examination of
Mrs.Evelyn Nesbit Thaw th's morning.
The first question he asked her wa*
wheiher or not the story she told of
her relations with Stanford White was
true in accordance with the actual hap
penings. She answered promptly, "Y es,
it is true." Mr. Jerome says tie misbt j
try to discredit the stqry of the witness.
The significance of this question by
Jerome m iy he understood when it is
known ihiit when she testififd
Mrs. Thaw only said her story is one
which shi- t .Id her husband. It was
admissible us evidence ooly as tending
to show wh t had inflimed the mind if
Thaw and caus d him to conceive the
idea that it was his ''uty to kill Stan
ford White. It would ba impossible
for Jer.ime to offer . vidence to disprove
! that she had ever told such a storv to !
her husbatrl, but when she ttstified
! that the story which she to d him was a
true story then the gates weie let down
and the opportunityjwas alloyed him to
disprove her story, not as directly icon
dictory of theaiegaion that she hid
t.ild her. husband this story, but as test
ing the crcdibi I'y of the witness.
Mrs. Thaw gave this opening to .
Jerome voluntarily, as sh- could l.avei
refused to answer his questions had she
so des:red.
Before she h?d completed her direct
testimony yesterday afiernoon, Mrs.
Thaw said that she bad received 20
letters from Stanford White after I'er
marritf*e to Hi'ry Thaw. Sh-; said,
also, that White hud trie I to hue her
since her marriage.
In the course of h-^r testimony Mrs.
Thaw identifi d 4- letters which she
l ad received from White, before aod
after her marriaje.
