New York. March 15.-Answering
precisely the same hypothetical ques-
ton in response to which the allenists
OF the defense declared that Harry
X. Thaw was suffering from an I'M
sound mind and did not know the ma
ture or quality of his act when he shot
and killed Stanford White DR.. Austin
Flint, the first expert called by Dis
trict Attorney Jerome in rebuttal, de-
ciared it to be his opinion that Thaw
did know the nature and quality OF
his act, and knew that the act was
wrong. When court adjourned for the
day Delmas had not begun his cross
examination of Or. Flint, who is the
first of six alienists to be called by
Jerome
Sure Thaw Was Not Demented
After repeating to DR.. Flint the
same question which Delmas put to
the experts for the defense, and hav-
ing him declare that Ihaw was sane
on the assumption of the facts stated
therein. Jerome had read to the wit
ness the prosecutions hypothetical
question. which contained some $4,000
words and which required one hour
and eighteen minutes in the reading.
Or. Flint again said without qualifica-
ton that Thaw knew his act was
wrong. Delmas indicated that he would
cross-eXamine each expert searchingly.
Jorome's sanguine prophecy that the
taking of testimony would be conclud-
ed by tonight has been abandoned
HummeI on the Stand Again.
Abraham Hummel was on the stand
again. and before Delmas could OBJ

ONE the witness had got into the rec

had told him that she had Informed
Harry Thaw in Paris in 1908 that
Stanford White positively had not
drugged or betrayed her. Delmas at
first moved to have the question and
answer stricken from the record, but
