Sam Davis to Be Prosecuted for Maintaining Firetrap Theater Irish Citizens Will Have the Law Enforced •• . .'After .waiting in vain for the Board of Public Works to do its duty under the charter by closing up Sam •pavfs't tinder-box theater, the committee of public-spirited Irishmen headed by John P. Allen has prepare"*! to. resort to the criminal courts to bring the deathtrap's proprietor to book. Sam Davis will not be per.rnitt.ed to offer up as sacrifice to his greed for gold the lives of the patrons of his theater. . .Attorney Allen /stated yesterday that 'he was in a position to make good his declaration of March -7 'that, the, firetrap could and would be closed. He will proceed today to niake formal com plafrnt against Davis under the fire or- » dinance, which "the boodMng 'Supervisor is violating every nighty flagrantly and boastfully. • * There "spill be a Large number of com plaints. For every night that Davis has inveigled an: audience into, his in flammable tent a separate action will be" presented. ' ' ' ' \u25a0 _ Supervisor Davis", the .man' who is I purchasable for J11.250 1 - or less, will have to, close up his" house. He is feel ing- the SAing of •"' public opinion, and Jie is c learnirrg that he cannot forever override , law and decency. . " He prill regret his; persistent insult to the purity fit' Celtic womanliood. It was Allen who led" "the" fight that purged the ''Belle 'of. Avenue. A" of. the insult to the "Irish -cace.' Attorney Allen has the matter up with -Francis J. Heney,' and the latter \u25a0will 'be. in charge of ' the prosecution of the cases. Wh'en Davis is done with the -complaint that will be Signed by Allen arid "prosecuted by Heney, i he will* be placed under arrest againVqn a complaint signed b*y T. P. O'Dowd, State secretary -of 'the ' Hibernian So ciety, ft -was O'Dowd and Allen who were -forcibly 'ejected from Davis* deathtrap, about a, month ago because they had- vigorously protested against tlie vulgar- characterization of a wcjroan of their race. *•_ . \u25a0• Whea.Boodler- Davis is through with this complaint, he '• will -face still an other,* ta be signed by T.

April 2.— The defense In the Hermann ' trial called W. A. illchra.rds, former Commissioner of the General Land Office to testify today. Richards 'said that in January, 1903, he -vras told by his messenger that the chief messenger and an assistant \u25a0were tearing up Hermann's letter books In the corridors. This testimony jwas ob jected to by the" prosecution and the court remarked that he did not see how the fact of publicity regarding the destruction of the letter books .would affect the character of the act United States Attorney Baker said that the Government would argue to the Jury that the defendant destroyed his letter books openly and notoriously. Richards produced memoranda which wore made at the time be passed the twelve Puter • claims to patent. In this - connection Baker remarked * that the Government would argue to the Jury that Richards acted in the dark regarding these claims, that he was put in possession by* Binger Hermann of only, part of the papers regarding them. George Hazelton, a local attorney^ who for a, time represented Benson be fore the land office, testified that, He rmann and Benson were not on good terms. C. L. Dubois, chief . of-! a di vision In the land, office, testified .to the cam© effect, and also that on Her mann's telephone order ; to the \u25a0 treas to-bum showhoiise can be closed by any citizen who will file a complaint. "The proprietor of the Davis Theater," he said, ''is guilty of a misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of not more than 1500 or Imprisonment for not more than six months, or by both fine and ! imprisonment, each time he permits a I theatrical performance to be given in it." "The committee, composed of dele gates' from the foremost Irish societies, proposes to force Davis," said Allen yesterday, "by all means possible un der the law to disgorge to the city a groodly part of the $11,250 which he acquired when he put himself on the grafters* bargain' counter. For every offense he may be fined $500, and we •hope to secure enough good citizens to sign complaints to compel Davis to pay in^. fines the amount of boodle that he has gathered in. "The Davis flrehole is to be stopped up before an audience is cremated." -. So far as the«oard of Public -Works is concerned, any criminal action com menced against Boodler-Manager Da vis must be instituted by private citi zens. "According to President Duffey, the' board proposes to ignore the duty that the law lays upon It and temper the! administration of the law - with discretion. • . . _ DUFFEY IS RELUCTAKT Davis is not alone in his assumption of superiority to the law. President Duffey of the Board /of Public Works assumes that he may disregard man datory provisions of the law and exer cise his personal discretion and official mercy. With characteristic vagueness the. president of the Board, of Public Works suggests that if Sam Davis ($11,250) does not comply with the de mands forced from the board, he will be very sorry. -For the present Duffey urer Benson's accounts were recalled and he was never, allowed to settle, thus blocking certain land deals. Ezra N. Hill, a local attorney and statistician, was subjected to : a rapid are of questions; on cross-examination by United States Attorney Baker. Hill testified for Uhe defense , that he : was present in the rooms of Senator Mitch ell at an Interview between the Senator and S. A. D. Puter regarding the Puter claims, when Puter almost went down on his knees to the Senator, begging for his fdalms. Puter said he, would be ruined and sail that Mrs. \u25a0 ' T Watson, whom he had induced * to~ invest money in the claims, would also.be'nnancially ruined. This interview, took place in March,. 1902. - . The' witness said he saw no money pass between the ; Senator and Puter, nor did ho hear a word -said 'about money. Hill was Questioned, about the rooms of Mitchell, as '\u25a0_ to the ' number and as to 'the ; newspapers he read ' and many like details. ;. Attorney ; Worthington read the jury correspondence by' Hermann in his • pfll cial capacity, showing that • he : reported . favorably ' to; Congress and tp the i Sec retary of the Interior on 'a* bill, to make the lieu land ; law so that more .valuable lands could not , be obtained outside Vof forest reserves than : were: relinquished in' such reserves. In' repsonse to a 're quest for his opinion' : regarding Vi the creation of.. forest ? reserves, Hermann wrote Secretary Hitchcock, under "date of July' 31, 1901,: that ; because of i* the apparent ', abuse of the ! lieu : land law he would recommend. that none of the for est reserves : be created and that no ap preciable additions be made to existing ones. .

Duffey was" asked yesterday. "No,", replied the president of the board, upon which should rest the re sponsibility for the prosecution of the death-hole manager. "Is it your intention to invoke the criminal law, as the' ordinance says you must?" persisted the Interviewer. "Well, if Davis, does notcomply with the law in a reasonable time, I think he will be very sorry," replied Duffey, as he started upon anY illuminating discourse regarding water supply^ "But does not the law definitely set tle what shall be considered a-rea sonable time? Have you ; any option?" "Well, Davis assures ;me, that he will comply with our ? demands as soon as possible. I think" that he. "will- be ill right in a week or ten days.

There .will be. a _ brief | public session tomorrow to' hear the testimony: of an alienist offered :by District Attorney Jerome : and theii" will follow a ..private mental;! and physical examination of ; ; the ant: Only the members :of the "com mission and the official, stenographers will be present at Thaw's lorfleal, at torneys for the defense and the Dis trict Attorney being barred. : 'The announcement, that the ;. com- i mission .desired •to renew, .its private \u25a0. examination of Thaw came -at tho end. of a day of many witnesses, and itf ..was":* ln the nature of a', surprise. The decision was probably v due to the conflicting character of the testimony heard today. ;it was another battle of alienists. Those engaged by the District Attor-" *ney declared Thaw absolutely -in capable of understanding his condition, of realizing. the nature of the charge against him or of rationally confer ring ; with counsel, while those en gaged by the defense declared Thaw throughout the trial had acted -in a rational manner: had rationally ad vised'his counsel in their hearing and fully understood and appreclated«very thing connected with ' the. trial.'- >: DELMAS TAKES ; STA\D The experts for the prosecution . ad mitted that "they had reached their coh clusionsas to Thaw's present state of mental unsoundness f rom ; distant ob servations- of him in the courtroom and from i writings alleged to have' emanated from him during the trial. Among the latter were twenty-four pages of news paper clippings and memoranda writ fen by Thaw as suggestions to his chief attorney,' Delmas, for his summing up address to the jury. "Experts declared these writings were those of an. insane man. The experts < for ; the defense de clared there was absolutely nothing in the writings upon which to predicate an opinion of mental unsoundness. Delmas himself took the stand and declared' many of Thaw's suggestions were most valuable and that he in- ! tended to .incorporate" some; of them in ! his; summing up address. The alienists for the defense, in tes tifying, declared they had the advant age of constant personal examination j of; the defendant, while the prosecu- ; tlon's witneses had not. The Tombs physicians, two : chaplains of- the City Prison, several guards and a probation officer took the stand and testified tha£ Thaw in prison had acted and spokeW like a rational man. .The commission decided today to ad mit the testimony of Dr. Hamilton, who said he had made-- four examinations of Harry Thaw, the last In ; July, 1906. He concluded then -that; Thaw was suf- | ferlng from chronic delusional < insanity j or paranoia and still held that belief.-. \u0084 I cross-examination' Dr. ; Hamilton admitted he had not examined the" de fendant recently. The -; defendant's counsel fought against: Dr. Hamilton's testimony to the- very last. Failing in the ; plea of professional . privilege as ; a bar, they argued } that his" examinations of :the'- defendant were .too remote to be of any value at this time. The com mission decided to allow the testimony. ' "DELUSIONS OP GRANDEUR" \u25a0\u25a0\u25a0:. [\ Members of the commission cross-ex amined several of; the District Attor ney's alienists at length, inquiring as to the consistency of their testimony now that Thaw.'isMnsane and has been so for. some time and : that he knew the nature of 'his;' act, v when he shot and , killed ; Stanford -White, and; knew the act ; was wrong. / Dr. Austin Flint de clared Thaw was insane from the alien ist's point of : viewN. when' the homicide occurred, but was not* insane in the language of the law.' Jerome's experts, ; one after another, argued, that Thaw was a paranoiac and that his case was incurable. !\u25a0 Dr. 'Flint gave" a -new touch to the theory of insanity, from\which it is al leged Thawj is \suffering. by that his: former ;parahoiacal delusion*, of; persecutions are i rapidly, changing into "delusions: of /grandeur."
