every prospect that after the delays

ton of the trisl District Attorney jerome
made formal and perfunctory appeal TO
the court asking it not to confirm the
report Of the insanity commission which
had found Harry Thaw sane and capable
OF directing bis own defense.
'1u view of the fading Of the lunacy
commission, can only accept It," said
Justice Fitzgerald in answer 10 Jerome.
"The trial will resume"
The jurors we're brought in and after
a delay Of nearly three weeks-since
Jerome interrupted the hearing with bis
sensational speech In which he declared
he had no right to be trying Thaw,
because the latter was insane--the trial
was resumed.

the rail inward, securing it in that po.
siiion in about five minutes.
