Insanity Plea Farce

r the result of the Thaw trial should
/ be the Incarceration of the defend
ant in Matteawan, on the ground
that he is insane, it is foregone
conclusion that he would soon be en-
joying his freedom. The case of Preus-
ser, the Albany IN. Y.) man who COM
mitted what used to be known as muir
der before the insanity and brain
storm" defense became SO popular, has
not been forgotten by everybody.
Preusser' had influential friends and
able lawyers, and was adjudged insane,
was committed to an asylum as crazy
man, and in six weeks time was pro-
nounced entirely recovered and was ac-
cordingly released. Recently he was
arrested for keeping bucket-shop in
Jersey City. Far be 1t from US to
criticise the conduct of a criminal case
which is sub judice; we only wish to
observe that the danger of Thaw's
spending the rest of his days in an
asylum for the insane is so remote as
TO be left out OF the calculations of
himself, his counsel. and the public.
It's an easy way out.-Leslie's Weekly.

RESOURCES TOO scAuTY

NEW YORK, January S.-The stock
market became sharply reactionary to-
day. and speculative sentiment UNDER
went a marked alteration. Various fac
tors contributed to this result, including
several rumors, OF which the failure Of
confirmation pointed to Il bcarish origin.
The principal Influences on the decline
the money outlook and the disquteting
erect OF the obvious pressure to sell
Union Pacific. The tone OF the money
market WAS iirner from the outset. foI-
lowing the furry to 10 per cent. late
yesterday. and II became evident that
the existing banking resources were too
scanty to allow a resumption of specti-

ments payable from time 10 time would

resort 10 u HDle issue unoer the cir
cumstances is regarded az significant OF
the unfavorable conditions for absorb
ton OF any new capital offerings In the
market.
Southern Railway ran on sharply and
II was supposed that liquidation for &C
count OF an estate of a late dominant
figure In the company was responsible.
United States Steel was also heavily sold.
The announcement that the New YORK
Central would repay the dividend pays-
bic January Is, on Thursday OF this
