counsel for Harry K Thaw that the
prosecutor would appear in court to-
morrow and ask for a special jury be-
fore Recorder Goff on December to
try ThaW for the murder of Stanford

A panel of 150 names will be re-
quested. Mr.. Jerome adds that the case
is one that requires attention and dis
patch. Thaw is charged with murder
in the first degree.
d. M. Delmas and John b. Gleason of
counsel for Thaw called on their client
in the Tombs late today. The object
of the visit, 1t is understood, was to
confer with the prisoner concerning the
story published this afternoon to the
effect that three alienists retained by
the defense to examine Thaw had re-
ported to his counsel today their con-
clusions that Thaw was insane when he
killed White.
Tonight a representative of Thaw's
counsel declared emphatically that the
published story would never be con-
flrmed nor denied, as the attorneys for
the defense had decided to do no further
talking for publication.
The interest in today's report regard
ing the alienists was due to the sug-
gestion of a possible defense to be set
up by the accused attorneys.
