TRIAL OF THAW.
Received April 10, 9.20 a.m. NEW YOKK, April 9. The trial of Harry Thaw for the murder of Stanford White, has been resumed. Mr Delmas, counsel for Thaw, addressed the jury, contending that the only assertion in the evidence against the truth of Mrs Thaw's story was the word of the lawyer "Abe" Hummel, whose evidence was obvious perjury, for the affidavit alleged to have been signed in Hummel's office by Mrs Thaw represented him as her legal adviser. This Hummel had denied, under oath, because otherwise he would have been unable to give evidence at all against her. Received April 10, 9.38 p.m. NEW YORK, April 10. Mr Delmas, on resuming, made an almost direct appeal in connection with the "Unwritten Law," and urged the jury to do as they would be done by.
