With William T. Jerome practically jockeyed out of the case, Harry K. Thaw to-night is belired to be nearer freedom than at any time since the night of June 25, 1906, when he killed Stanford White On the roof of Madison Square Garden. Following the decision of Justice Mills at White Plains to-day to give Thaw a hearing as to his sanity and his refusal to make New York the place of the hearing. Jerome practically admitted that Thaw would soon be free.

"It looks to me," he said, "as if the prediction made when White was shotthat Thaw's millions would save him--is about to become a fact. Without money we cannot produce the evidence to show that this man is a dangerous lunatic." Jerome's reference to money was caused by the fact that. District Attorney Winslow, of Westchester County, has little or no money to spend at the trial, which is set for Oct. 12. New York's Controller cannot pass bills for any case in Westchester County.

The general belief along Broadway and among the people of the Tenderloin who have been deeply interested in the case tonight is that Jerome has been worsted and that his persistent attempt to send Thaw back to Matteawan will now end. Under the new order, the young millionaire will stay in Westchester County Jail until his hearing in October and the chance of any formidable array of him has thwarted by the success insanity experts, being lined up against of the defense in keeping the case out of New York. But two experts will be allowed to testify for each side and so poor is Westchester County that the District Attorney will have difficuly to muster highpriced talent against the most skillfull experts in the business, whom Thaw will doubtless summon. A hint of Justice Mills' attitude. which caused Thaw to smile broadly at to-day's hearing, came when the jurist said: "I want the trial to proceed summarily.

This has been a case of great notoriety and I think every one should aid in having it disposed of as quickly n8 possible. While I am sure that the original commitment of Thaw is proper in every still if he is sane at the present moment he should go free." And on Broadway to night the opinion is general that he will. GOOD REASON WHY. Mr. Labouchere has been telling set another capital story to add to the hundreds he has already told concerning people he has met during his eventful career, He was at Frankfort on one occasion, and at his first ball supper found bimeelf at a table next to a grandee, gorgeous in stars and ribbons.

The servant came to pour out champagne. "Now, I detest this wine," says I shook my head. The grandee nudged me, and said, 'Let him pour it This I did. and he explained to me that the potentate whose hospitality we were enjoying never gave his guests more than one glass, 'So, you see, if I drink yours I shall hare and he suited the action to the word. After this there used to be quite a struggle to sit near me at court euppers." -Tit-Bits.

Prof, Pawlow, of Russia, was engaged for many years in experimental work, trying to learn the workings of digestion, especially the digestive glands.

The management of the Empire Theatre announces that high class Sunday evening concerts will be started a week from -night CHANGE OF BRIDGE NAME OPPOSED BY IRISHMEN night. Patriots Also Want to Honor Blackwell's Memory.

ALDERMEN RESERVE DECISION Queens Folks Divided in Matter of Altering Designation of Newest Bridge, The Aldermanic Committee on Bridges and Tunnels held a hearing Friday afternoon on the proposed change of the name of the Blackwell's Island Bridge to "Queensboro Bridge." There developed a spirited discuesion in which it appeared that sentiment is not unanimous in favor of the change. The advocates of the change, it is true, outnumbered the ponenty of the plan, but the latter contingent put up a hot argument with an organized body of orators. Opposition to "Queensboro" as a name was based chiefly on the idea that it conreys the monarchical idea, and appeal was made to patriotism and American democracy. There were a number of citizens from Queens who took this view, but the most rigorous argument was advanced by the Irish- American societies of the city. The advocates of the change argued against, this sentiment.

and declared that the bridge should not be named after a place identified with penal institutions, but should take its designation from the borough it serves. Bernard McLaughlin, representing the Committee of Forty, was the first speaker to oppose the change in the name. Mr. McLaughlin said that he was the firet man who conceived the idea to organize A committee to agitate the building the bridge. The name her Blackwell's was selected because it honored one of the bravest patriots the American colonies, had in the Revolutionary period.

said that it would be a discredit to American patriotism to change the name of the structure. Patriotism alone, he said, should not deter anybody from suggesting another name. The most interesting speech against the change was made by Stephen Tweed. of the Andrew Jackson Branch of the Star Spangled Bonner Association. He said that he represented an organization which had been striving to perpetuate American ideas and ideals.
