defense. He said he had made q
half hours examination of Thaw In
the morning. He declared that Thaw
was rational and logical and certainly
capable of advising with HIS counsel.
He admitted 10 Mr.. Jerome that he.
had sworn that Thaw was insane in
1908, insane in 1905. insane at the
| time of the shooting, and insane when
he was at the Tombs In September.
Are you now able TO say that this
defendant Is sane?" asked Mr. Jerome.
"The examination ! made this morn
Ing," said DR. Wagner, was not long
enough foI me to form n definite opin-
ion but discovered nothing that
would warrant me in saying that Thaw
is now insane. Therefore ! am forced
10 the conclusion that he Is probably
sane"
But Mr.. Jerome could not get DR..
Wagner to come right out and say that
Thaw is now sane. Then DR.. Wag-
ner went on TO tell of his conversation

brought out two new things, that Thaw
studied law at Harvard for time, and
that then his ambition was to become
painter. In response te-questions
from DR.. Wagner, Thaw said that II he
was declared insane by the commits
sion he supposed he would be sent to
an institution for time. then he
stand trial again. II he was convicted
he knew what would happen, but he
was sure the higher courts would re.
verse the verdict. He realized that
his position was serious, but no
thought that his lawyers had made
such progress that his position was
not as serious as Il was. He had made
financial arrangements with some OF
his lawyers. but he had not done any
thing with one or two of the lawyers
who are his personal friends, and there
was no need Of settling with them
yet
That ended the examination OF wit
nesses and the commission went into
secret session.
There was some speculation as 20
whether any more witnesses will be
called at the trial, should It go on
tomorrow. II was said that at the
beginning of the lunacy commissions
the question came up as
to what effect certain testimony might
have at the trial. II was then agreed
by both sides that no more witnesses
would be called after the commission
had dled its report.
