Special to The Tribune.
COALVILLE. April IS. There war,
considerable excitement arojind thc
courthouse yesterday, caused by a lone
Italian, who was partially demented, lie'
had walked into Coalville Sunday from
Echo and had been wandering around
in the south part of town since, sleeping
In barns and begging for food. Yester
day morning City Marshal Beech went
and got the man and brought, him to
I iho courthouse. lie was put In the Sher
iff's office and fed. When he was
brought Into the building he was so
badly scared that he cried, prayed and
talked, but nobody could understand a
word. Two Greek laborers were brought
to see If they could understand him. but
could not. so the poor fellow was left
alone In the office Not appearing vicious,
he was not locked up. In the afternoon
ho raised the window- of tho office and
Jumped out, and away he went over
fences nnd around corners for several
blocks, but was soon run down bv men
from the county building. He was
brought back and put in the small cage
In the office and locked up. A pair of
handcuffs lay handy by the iron door,
and with these he pried the lock and
opened the door again and was soon out
of the window for another foot-race, lie
was again captured, but showed consld
l arable fight this time, so that his hands
had to be tied and he was carried back
to the building.
A German from Park City, who hap
pened to be in Coalville, come to tn
courthouse and began talking to him in
I Italian, which the man understood, and
1 the fellow said he didn't know where
lie was or bow h got here. Hp said
I he was on his way from San Francisco
1 to New York and from thence to his na
tive land. On bing searched, steamship
tickets from New York nnd Italv were
i found on him. and $2.S" In monev. He
said he had lost his valise on the train,
which contained his clothing nnd about
5100 in money, and when he got off rhe
train he was erased and didn't know
what to do. He had been wandering
1 around so long that he was bewildered,
and after he had found some one who
could talk to him he did not seem so
: bad. An effort will be made lo get him
to some place where h can receive as-
sistauce.

WAS JURY THAT TRIED
THAW "fflOACHED"
District Attorney Jerome yill
Investigate Reports That
Have Come to Him.
'-.
XEW YORK, April 18. It. was an
nounced today that the District Attor
cy had begun thc investigation of a
report, that one of tho jurors in the re
cent trial df Ilarrv K. Thaw had been
"approached" by" a policeman before
tho trial closed. Henry B. Brearly, one
of tho jurors, had an interview with
District Attorney Jerome, late today.
Later it was announced that several
olht'rs of tho Thaw jurors would bo
asked to come to thc District Attor
ney's office tomorrow and tell of any
thing the knew of tho report in ques
tion. It was reported that a policeman
talked with a juror on one of the walks
the jur took from the Criminal Courts
'building to the Broadway Ceutral hotel.
It. became definitely known today
that I lie question of counsel for Harry
Thaw has not been permanently set
tled. The publication of a letter sent
by Thaw to Hn rtridgo & Pea body yes
terday, in which he informed that firm
thai they would continue as counsel of
record, was generally accepted as dis
posing of that phase of the case for the
present at least.
No Senior Counsel.
Today, however. Clifford W. Hart
ridge gave out. a statement in which he
said tho supposition that he is senior
counsel was absolutely unwarranted. He
said that at tho present time there is
no senior counsel in thp Thaw case.
This statement was given out at
Thaw's request, it is said, after a heated
interview in the Tombs between the
prisoner, Mr. Peabody aud Daniel
O'Reilly.
Dr. 'Smith Ely Jelliffe, one of the
alienists; who testified for the defense in
the recent trial of Harry K. Thaw, spent
two hours with Thaw in his cell in the
Tombs last night. A. R. Poabodv of
Thaw's counsel was present during the
interview, but neither he nor Dr. .Tel
liffe would say anything today. Thaw
hnd remained in bed vesterda morn
ing until 0 o'clock and only chose to
see his counsel when Warden Flynu
suggested to him that if he were ill' he
might, go to the hospital ward. U was
said at the prison thai Mr. Tenbodv
had Dr. Jelliffe lo attend Thaw because
Dr. McGuire, the regular Tombs physi
cian, is suffering from a slight attack
of tonsilitis.
Roger O'Mara. the former Pittsburg
Cliiel of Police who has had charge of
the detective work of the defense, came
to New York today in response to n re
quest from Thaw." Ho will have a talk
with the prisoner before returning to
Pittsburg.
