REFUSAL OF THAW'S OFFER OF MARRIAGE on the ground which she related' yesterday. On Monday she will be called upon to finish rélating the events which, it is claimed by the defence, braught on the impu'se in the diseas ad brain of the defend int, and caused the kill ing of Stanford 'White.

While to-day's testimony lacked the per- sonal quality which made yesterday's recital so dramatic and pathetic, it served to clear away -some of the doubra and inferences which re

mained from the incomplete details as to the

full extent of the revelations she claims to bryo made to her husband There were re- petitions too, at the suggestion of counsel, and incidents which had not been gone over in the first years of Mr. Thaw's acquaintance with Stanford Wite were brought out in comple. tion of the life-story.

District Attor ey Jerome, who had through out silently listened to the young wife's state ments, sent a thrill through the cou t-room late in the day by vigorously pretesting against what he characterized as

"THIS DEFAMATION OF THE DEAD." “Is there no limit,' he excinimed, "to the aspersions that are to be cast upon this man? Your Honour well knows that I cannot, under

the law, controvert any statement this witness might make against the memory of "tanford White."

It is expected that Mr. Dedmas, counsel for Harry K. Thaw, will make a vigorous effort on Monday to introduce Thaw's will in evidence. It is isid to be a remarkable document, and is believed to be strongly relied upon by Mr. Delmas to show the effect upon Thaw of the stories related to him by Evelyn Nezbit.

The, income from the remainder of the estate was bequeathad to Mrs. Evelyn Thaw.
