WIFE SAYS THAW IS SAME MENACE
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., April 23.—"Harry K. Thaw is still the same menace to society and it won't be long until he breaks loose again. Then look out."
This was the comment today of Evelyn Nesbit, divorced wife of Thaw, when she learned of the jury verdict in Philadelphia, which, for the third time in 20 years, frees Thaw from correctional institutions.
NO DEFINITE PLANS
PHILADELPHIA, April 23.—Harry Thaw, jubilant over a jury's verdict declaring him sane, said today he has no definite plans for the future, but does hope "to drop out of the limelight."
Thaw has been in the public eye since he shot and killed Stanford White on the Madison Square roof garden 18 years ago.
"I don't know just what I'll do next, or what my lawyer wants me to do." Thaw said. "But now that the case is over, I want everything to quiet down."
Thaw, talking rather incoherently, said he might go to New York and plead not guilty to an indictment there charging him with kidnapping and assaulting Frederick Gump Jr., of Kansas City. He also said he would accompany his $2-year-old mother, Mrs. Mary Copley Thaw, to their home at Cresson, near Pittsburgh, as soon as he could.
Thaw's freedom, despite the verdict of the jury, is not yet a reality. The Pittsburgh millionaire, by direction of Judge Monaghan, was continued in the custody of the Pennsylvania hospital for mental and nervous diseases under the original order of commitment. This means it was said today that Thaw must await at the institution final judgment of the Gump case.
Counsel for Evelyn Nesbit, divorced wife of Thaw, has requested the usual four days time in which to file a motion and reasons for a new trial.
No time has been set, however, for hearing of the motion.

Once again May McAvoy will play daughter. This time in the new Lubitsch production which will go under way shortly at Warner Brothers studio. Lew Cody and Pauline Frederick are the stars in an original story by Hans Kraly.
Gertrude Climstead, who is to play the part of "Esther" in "Ben Hur," will soon follow Carmel Myers to Italy. Both now are finishing "Rabbitt" for Warner Brothers. To think that Miss Olmstead will leave the spotlight of publicity for six or eight months while in Europe seems almost unbelievable.
Barbara LaMar, Newwitching vampiree who has been having her day in court, finds Sacramento club women taking action against her films because of publicity pictures showing her portraying a Buddah. Perhaps their action will be a box office attraction for her films. It's an ill wind that blows no one good, you know.
