IL now a member of the law firm of Board:
man. Plat & Solely. He was corporation
counsel, trustee of the public schools.
justice of the supreme court. justice of the
appellate division, and in 1905 he was chosen
as one of the trustees OF the Equitable Life
Assurance Society. He has been trustee
of various libraries Of the city, and has
been interested In the public welfare Of the
community continually since his active ca
reer began. He Is member OF many
clubs, and Is a Catholic, as Is Justice Fitz-
gerald. AS supreme court justice he
tried many cases that will stand him in
good stead in his work as one Of the
commission in the Thaw case. He is ia
miliar with methods Of procedure In a
lunacy inquiry, and 1t is believed that he
will be the member of the commission to
Insist on speed in the settling Of the in
QUESTION.
Peter B. Olney. the second member Of the
commission, is a brother of the ex-Secretary
OF State of the same name. He was once
district attorney Of New York and Is law
yer of ability. He has been appointed
judges. and as an insanity COM
mission bears close resemblance to
reference it Is believed that he will act
as a guide to the others in the formal
conduct of the sittings. Mr.. Olney was
born in 1s43. but he is still active in the
affairs of life, eager for outdoor sports,
and quick of mind in his profession. at

practitioner of note He was graduated
from Bellevue Hospital in 1875, and stands
high in his profession. He is a member
of the County Medical Society and the
Academy of Medicine.
Inquiry May Be Public.
1t will rest among these three men
whether the inquisition shall be private
or public. If they SO desire they may pur-
sue their investigation under the rules of
law and evidence and refer to Justice FitZ-
gerald for his rulings. If they prefer to
investigate Thaw's state of mind without
regard to the rules of law and evidence
they will be at liberty to go about their
work in that way. The probability is that
they will Immediately proceed to study
Thaw himself, regardless Of forms of court
procedure, and make up their report, based
on their >own opinions and the opinion of
DR.. PutZel their associate. They can de-
mand Thaw's presence before them at any
time.
The only chance of reversal of their
decision rests in the discretion of Justice
Fitzgerald. 1t Is within his power to
quash their finding and order the trial to
proceed. Should there be a minority re-
port, he has it in his power to accept
the minority report and cast aside the re-
port of the majority.

jacent Territory.

Showers to the north of US; showers to
the west of us; showers all around us, but
none in Washington" was the way Prof.

conditions here today. He said that while
rain was falling in Pennsylvania, West
Virginia and in the mountains of Virginia,

warmer tonight, and tomorrow evening it
will cool off some"

the commission at some time during the

After breakfast he read over the newspa-
pers taking a keen interest in the various
reports of the appointment of commission
to examine into the question of his sanity.
He appeared puzzled at the different con-
ficting stories told as to the method of
procedure and asked A. Russell Peabody,
of his counsel to explain the procedure
prescribed by law.
Mr. Peabody remained for hour with
Thaw. No other visitor called.
The Family There.
As Thaw appeared in the court room from
the Tombs his wife, mother and sisters en-
