The selection of the twelfth juror
came as complete surprise at the
end of long and tedious. day-the
eighth of the trial-and Immediately
after this last member of the trial
panel had been sworn in Justice Fitz-
gerald ordered an adjournment of
court until 10:30 o'clock Monday
morning.
To Take Testimony Monday.
District Attorney Jerome, who has
been contending since Thursday af-
ternoon for the removal of one Of the
men now in the jury box but who
has failed to gain the consent of the
defendants counsel to change, was
still reluctant as court adjourned to
begin the actual proceedings without
further opportunity to plead with
Thaw's attorney. At his request,
therefore, Justice Fitzgerald ordered
all talesmen who have not yet been
examined to be in court Monday morn
ing ready for jury service in case any
are needed. Mr.. Jerome then an
nounced that if there should be no
change IN the situation in the mean
time the state would proceed to place
all it's direct testimony before the
jury at the Monday morning session
The defense was notified to be in
readiness to proceed by Monday after
noon.
eve are entirely satisfied with the
jury" said Clifford w. Hartridge,
Thaw's leading counsel, and he added
the intimation that he would not con-
sent to any further alterations of the
personnel.
"The deefnse will be ready to pro-
coed the minute the prosecution has
finished it's case," declared John B.
Gleason, another of Thaw's attorneys.
Garvan to Open for State.
Assistant District Attorney Garvan
will make the opening address for the
prosecution. His remarks will be very
brief, occupying perhaps not more
than 20 minutes. The state then will
introduce only such witnesses as are
necessary to prove Stanford White
was shot and killed by Harry K. Thaw
on the Madison Square roof garden
the night Of June as last. In an
nouncing that the Introduction will
not require more than one session of
the court Mr.. Jerome is evidently of
the opinion that the Discrimination
of the states witnesses to the actual
events associated with the tragedy
may not be very extensive.
From the questions which have so
persistently been put to the talesmen
by Thaw's attorneys as to any pre-
JUDGE against a defense of insanity,
1t is at last generally conceded that a
plea Of emotional insanity will be the
main reliance of the young defendant
This probably will lead to a cross
questioning of the states witnesses
as to any popularity they may have
noticed in Thaw's conduct the night
of the tragedy, in which event the con-
clusion of the states direct testimony
may take longer than is now antici-
pated.
