Only Thin Delay lost Caae of the
State Against I.atuphere Haa
Ileen Kala bllahment of
Corpus Delicti.
LA FORTE;. Ind., May 15. "There la no
question but that the pleca of Jawbone
found In the Guinness farm yesterday la
from a human being. Furthermore, It
bears a strong Tesemblance to the lower
Jaw of Mrs. Guinness."
This positive statement of identification
was made by Lr. I. P. Norton, the dentist
who porformed a large amount of work on
the teeth of the owner of the death farm,
after he had examined the specimen
brought to him by the coroner.
"There Is almost no chance that the bone
came from the jaw of an animal," he said.
"It shows ths conformations as far for
ward as the cuspid tooth and also shows
that all the teeth intervening had been ex
tracted." '
Mrs. Guinness had only two teeth left In
her lower Jaw. There was a cuspid on each
side.
"I tried to persuade her a have them
extracted and to let ma make a plate for
her, but she Insisted upon bridge work,
and I crowned the two cuspids with gold
and swung a bridge from them.
Proof of Expert's Theory.
"In the human jaw, when teeth have been
extracted from two to five years, the
bone forms a plate over the cavities. That
condition existed In Mrs. Guinness' jaw
and It exists in the specimen found In the
ashes by Sheriff Smutsrr. Had the Jaw
coma from an animal there would have
been no trace cf extraction. Some root or
other remnants of each tooth would prob
ably have remained. There only remains
to be discovered some of the gold which I
placed uptn the cuspid teeili lo make the
Identification of this pioco of bun 2 positive
and complete. So fur as I myself arj
concerned I am certain as to the origin
of the bono cow."
The doctor said that a study by the
methods of comparative anatomy will bear
out his assertions. He is planning to send
tl.o specimen lo the curatera centra
museum at the Chicago College of Dental
Surgery.
8herlff Smutzer also brought In to Dr.
Norton a number of new bits of metal
found In the debris this morning. They
proved, however, to be brass. Otherwise
the search at the farm was fruitless.
Ureat Help to State's Case.
The report of the coroner's physicians to
the effect that the Jawbone found at the
Guinness farm yesterday came from the
skull of an adult human being Is all that Is
required to confirm the establishment of
the corpus delicti In the case against Ray
Lamphere, according to the prosecuting
officials of this county. Just when this
formal report will be made Is uncertain.
The same doctors considered their findings
on the bodies found In the cellar of the
Guinness home for ten days or more before
making a formal return concerning them
to the coroner.
Sheriff Bmutzer was Jubilant over his
discoveries last night and resumed his In
vestigations today. The material on the
east side of the cellar, where the bodies
were found, his all been screened, but the
possibilities of the refuse piles are by no
means exhausted. The ashes were shoveled
from the east side to the west side of the
foundation and partially back again during
the search for the bodies and the subse
quent cursory examination of the ruins for
evidence. As a consequence some finds of
considerable value to the prosecution may
yet be turned up.
Evident' of Hot Kire.
The bits of metal found by the miners
among the piles of nails, bolts and other
relics of the farm house win bear evidence
of one fact If they do not prove to be gold
fillings or crowns from Mrs. Guinness'
teeth. .
Ecch globule la fused Into the cinder
with which it came in contact and moulded
into all sorts of Irregular shapes. No better
testimony as to the fierceness of the fire
which consumed the farm house could be
found, and It Is upon the alleged tremen
dous heat engendered In the flaming ruins
that the state must depend for support of
Us conttntion that the head of Mrs. Guin
ness was Incinerated on the morning of
April 28.
The cae against Hay Lamphere probably
will be brougiit (Worn the grand Jury Mon
day, according to the first revision of the
schedule In this regard. The time of his
trial is less certain. I'ntll Sheriff Smutzer
has exhausted the possibilities of the farm
house it Is scarcely likely that the case will
be docketed for trial. According to the
present rale of progress this will mean a
delay of mouths.

TELLS PRISONER'S STATEMENTS
Thaw Steadfastly Itefaaek to Talk of
the Shooting of White, Acting-
Vader Advice' of
Counsel. f (
rOUGHKEErBlE, N. Y., May 15,-Pr.
Amos T. Baker, acting superintendent of
the State Hospital for the Criminal Insane
at Matteawan testified In the Thaw esse
today that In his opinion Thaw Is Insane.
Dr. Baker said that In his opinion It would
be dangerous to public safety to have Thaw
go at large.
Dr. Carlos F. MacDonald, the alienist,
testified that In his opinion Thaw Is an
Incurable paranoiac, whose confinement
la demanded by consideration of public
safety.
Dr. Baker was the first witness to take
the stand today. He was railed by District
Attorney Jerome, not as an expert, but ts
give the court a statement of Thaw's con
duct during the three months he Was In
the Matteawan. Institution, beginning Feb
ruary 1, IMS.
A. Russell Teabocly, Thaw's counsel in
his last trial for kilting Stanford White,
was quoted today as saying Thaw would
go on the witness stand to testify In the
habeas corpus proceedings now In progress.
Dr. Baker related conversations with
Thaw In which the latter told of epilepsy
and nervous ailments suffered by a sister
and uncle. Thaw, the witness said, alls
told of the desultory way in which his
education was acquired. At T years of age,
he said, he had Saint Vitu dance. He de
scribed an attack of pneumonia at Mnnte
Carlo concerning which he did not agree
with the diagnosis of his physicians.
Thaw's Vonthfol Habits.
Thaw told Dr. Baker, the latter said, that
he used tobacco at IS, used alcohol in
moderation and denied ever using drugs.
The witness said Thaw described his move
ments preceding the shooting of White
his return from Europe and marriage to
Miss Nrshlt. He gave his age as 37,
though he was 84 when he entered the hos
pital. Thaw told the witness that at his
trial some of the doctors had greatly exag
gerated their estimates of his condition;
that they had In mind a nephew of hla
whom they had examined, who traveled
under the same name and was often taken
for him. He said that his lawyers and
doctors did very clever work In his de
fense. Dr. Baker said that Thaw said to him:
"If I was ever Insane in my life, the at
tack began one minute before I shot White
and ended half a minute afterward."
The doctor repeated a description which
Thaw gave him of the house alleged to
have been maintained by Stanford White
and others. He said that these men
plotted to put him In an asylum to prevent
him trom exposing their alleged misdeeds.
On Brink of a Precipice.
"He told me that he appealed to Miss
Helen Gould and was referred by her to
Anthony Comstock," said Dr. Baker.
"Thaw said detectives employed by him to
watch White and the letter's house In
formed him that he was In danger."
When the witness asked him to give the
substance of the detectives' reports he re
fused to answer, "by advice of counsel."
He said that his physicians and lawyers
had advised him not to discuss what had
occurred on the Madison Square roof on
the night he shot White. He volunteered,
however, this much: Ha compared his
situation at that moment to that of a
man standing on the brink of a precipice
seized with an Irresistible Impulse to Jump."
Stimulants a Necessity.
While Thaw had said he did not want to
be shown any favoritism, yet he was
peevish when not given a stimulant and
the opportunity to smoke.
On one occasion Thaw said Roosevelt
took office as president October IS, 1905.
He solved a mental example In arithmetic
fairly well, but he was mixed on many well
known dates. '
Dr. Baker said that a physical examina
tion, of Thaw showed him to be generally
normal. Referring again to his acquittal
Dr. Baker quoted Thaw as saying: "I was
not Insane when acquitted and should not
have been committed to a hospital. My
lawyers made a mistake In not applying
for habeas corpus Immediately after the
trial. I came here with the understanding
that I was to be under observation thirty
days and at that time discharged on a
certificate of sanity."
"On February 25 there arrived at the
hospital 200 chocolate eclalres," said Dr.
Baker. "I found that Thaw had ordered
them and wished them distributed among
the attendants, who were to have a dance
that night."
Mr. Jerome, by questions to the witness,
brought out the testimony of Evelyn Kesbit
Thaw in one of the former trials that she
was very fond of chocolate eclalres and
had enjoyed eating them at one of Btand
ford White's parties.
Domineering and Peevish.
Dr. Baker said that Thaw purchased a
quantity of gospel hymn books for the use
of the patients. "On one cccaslon," raid
Dr. Baker, "he said that the newspapers
were behaving beautifully."
Dr. Baker described Thaw's manner as
domineering and peevish.
Dr. Baker, who has been on the medical
staff of the state hospitals at Dannemnra
and Matteawan for eight years, was asked
by Mr. Jerome:
"Have you encountered many Insane per
sons who were able by cunning to conceal
the fact of their Insanity?"
Dr. Baker I have. Such cases are not
uncominon.
Mr. Jerome You have aeen the letters
written by Mr. Thaw and the codicil to his
will?
Dr. Baker I have.
Mr. Jerome From the reading of those
documents, together with your conversa
tions with and observations of Mr. Thaw,
Is he, In your opinion, sane or Insane?
Dr. Baker He Is Insane.
Mr. Jerome In your opinion would It be
dangerous to the public for him to go at
large?
Dr. Baker It would.
