New York, June 29.-Announcement
that the defense will make emotional
insanity" the basis for it's fight for the
release of Harry K. Thaw, in Jail in
dicted for the murder Of Stanford
White set at rest speculation on this
point today. Justifiable homicide and
straight plea of insanity had been
suggested as the line of defense, but
'Thaw himself made the insanity move
impossible by refusal 20 consider it and
declining to allow the alienists to ques-
ton him. It will not be claimed he is
insane now. Such plea would mean
sentence to the asylum for criminal
insane at Mattaewan. This new line
means trial and If the plea emotion
al insanity" is justified Thaw will be
q free man. The defense plans to
bring out the whole story of Whites
life, his relations with Evelyn Nesbit
before she was married and his sub
sequent actions, which defense claims
annoyed Mrs. Thaw, and goaded her
husband on to the shooting.
49, w ulIe waiting LOT liIc OpeIIiiiS W
court, Thaw sat near an open window
In the Bridge of Sighs, which connects
the prison with the criminal court
building. He talked freely with news
paper men and others during his brief
stay, but he declined to say anything
whatever concerning his case. He ap-
peared to be in good physical condition.
and when his case was called, he step
!. ped briskly to the barrier inside of
which sat his counsel. When Clerk
Tenney read the charge of murder in
the first degree he asked Thaw what
he had to say In regard to the indict-
ment, and the prisoner answered dis
tirlctly, Not guilty" His counsel i'm
mediately interposed an amendment to
the plea, asking the court leave to
Withdraw the plea any time up to next
Tuesday. This was granted, and a
moment later the prisoner re-entered
the prison. Thaw was remarkably cool
and collected. His face was pallid, but
his eyes were bright, and he was keen
ly alert and more than interested in his
surroundings. Mrs. Thaw was not in
the courtroom.
According to the Globe today, inves-
tigation has brought to light the fact
that Stanford White, who was suppos-
ed to be wealthy, had been living be-
yond his income, and was heavily in
debt owing 100000 to one young
member of a prominent family, and as
much to other persons. In addition to
this, the Globe says White had drawn
so heavily from the architectural firm
of which he was member, that he
had been notified he could draw no
more, but would be allotted weekly
sum. which was not to be exceeded.

Agent Refuses to Say If He Allowed
Eehates ON Policies

Milwaukee, Wis, June 29.-The ques-
ton of insurance rebates was brough.
up yesterday in the inquiry by the
Wisconsin legislative committee Otto
w. Pegel, cashier of a local hardware
concern, testified that he had been en-
ployed as Il subagent by agents Of the
Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance
Company and wrote policies on lives of
employees of the hardware company.
Asked if he had rebated any part of the
premiums, witness declined to answer
on the ground that his answer might
tend to incrinfnate.
The counsel of the committee ap-

the company had knowledge of any
such acts.

an Indication that the senate will today

on cans of meats, but that In the In
