DEFENDANT TAKES MATTER CooLlY
uTrERs WORDS OF CONSOLATION
WHEN HIS WIFE BREAKS
THE NEWS TO HIM.

New York, March 27.-A commits
sion has been appointed by Justice
Fitzgerald Of the supreme court to de
eide the question as to whether Harry
K. Thaw is now sane. His trial be,
fore a jury for the murder OF Stan
ford White will be interrupted pend
ing the report of this commission. II
the commission reports that he is
sane and therefore capable OF advls-
ing with counsel and of understand
ing the proceedings against him the
trial will be resumed, but If it should
be found that he Is not sane nor ca
pable, in q legal sense, a petition will
be made for his commitment to an
asylum, probably that at Matteawan,
for the criminal insane.
Justice Fitzgerald's decision to ap-
point a commission followed a confer
ence with the attorneys in the case.
The justice told counsel that he had
given. the various afidavits careful
consideration, but as they were so
widely at variance he felt that he
could not properly pass upon them.
Therefore he had decided that it
would be best to submit the entire
matter TO a commission in lunacy.

AS Thaw's counsel left the room
after the announcement of Justice
Fftzgerald's decision n of them said:
ut could not be worse" Mrs. Evelyn
Thaw was weeping as she left the
room to go TO the Tombs prison.
The Thaw commission is composed
of Morgan j.. O'Brien, a former justice
of the supreme court; Peter B. Ole
e a lawyer, and DR.. Leopold Putzel.
Mrs. Evelyn Thaw broke the news
of Justice Fitzgerald's decision to her
husband in the Tombs prison. She
was accompanied to the Tombs by
Messrs. Hartridge and O'Reilly, of
Thaw's counsel, and they met Thaw
in the hospital ward, as the confer
ence room was occupied. Mrs. ThaW
had nerved herself for the ordeal, but
her announcement was greeted by e
husband with condolences.
Never mind, dearie," he said, lit
will be all right; | am sane now, just
as sane as the judge is, and any fair
minded commission will declare me
