Mr. Jerome explained with many gestures and described Thaw's passage down the roof garden his turning to the leit ana walking twenty-five feet to the table where White sat with his head resting on his hand.
 Then" said Mir. Jerome, me turned deliberately and calmly and shot stan ford White dead. Does that fact snow that he knew what he was doing?
 "No,' replied pr, Evans, his clamness does not show that he knew. but might indicate that perhaps that he did.

 He realized that something of lmpor- tance had transpred.
 pr Evans also said that he thought Thaw realized he was under arrest when he asked that his wife be taken to d hotel and that George Carnegie, hls prother-n-law, be sent for.
 The witness declared the fact that the defendant did not ask why he was under arrest, conveyed no light as to his mem tai condition.
 Thaw was paying absolutely no atten- ton to Dr. Evans all this while, put busted himself with reading the letters he had received this morning. AS usual he made notes on each letter after finish ing it's perusal,

 Mr. Jerome asked the doctor about his visits to Thaw in the Tombs and he said as far as he remembered pr. Evans had left n incident of those visits untold.

 "In the moments immediately following the shooting of White" the witness said, "Thaw might have had an insane appre- citation of all the incidents"
 There was," said pr. Evans, nothing in the evidence to show that Thaw knew he had been arrested for killing White, and the only thing tending to show he did know it was his statement that it was an act of providence
 But that was subsequently," said Mir. Jerome. I'm asking for the condition of his mind that night. In most cases where insane persons kill, when not in mani acal condition do they usually include enough knowledge to know these things.'
 Sometimes, not always"
 When he was on the elevator did he know what he had done?"
 "There had been by that time re- organization of his mental forces and by that time he knew that he had done something
 "Therefore, if there had been a brain storm he had recovered in this short time sufficiently to know what he had done?"
 The witness believed that in the brain storm the defendant had an insane knowledge of what he dld-not the knowl- edge of q sound mind The sane man reasons in logical manner. the insane man in an illogic manner, although req son was dethroned. the witness said the defendant had an insane knoWledSe that he was attacking White
 The New York law is explicit on the subject of insanity as a defense In crim- inal cases. It provides that the person committing the crime must be so Insane as not to know the nature or quality oi the act or to know that the act IS urono''

pose. By this very simple indication
he found In the inner vestibule Of the
column a door which had been walled
up and covered with plaster. He cut
away the masonry and discovered with
IN TWO chambers. In the inner cham
ber were the remains Of a funeral ia
Bile, and above 1t, at opposite ends, two
holes drilled in the walls. The COM
mendatore concludes that to these were
liked stanchions which supported two
urns which rested on the table. An
Inscription preserved In the Vatican La
pidarium states that Hadrian erected
temple to his parents which stood
close to the column. The commentators
seems. therefore, to have fairly estab-
iished a. a fact that the column was
erected as 4 mausoleum over the ashes
OF Trajan and Plotina, the parents Of
Hadrlan.
Az regards the inscription, the COM
mendatore has, we hold, arrived at a
conclusion still more convincing, but,
we think, merely negative. He dug
pits near the column and a trench
across the whole valley which contains
the Forum. At the level where the sub
strata Of the supposed hill would have
lain he found in their place remains Of
early imperial and republican work,
such as foundations and drains In
particular, he found traces Of a wall
built Of blocks Of tufa exactly similar
to the still existing fortifcati lions on
the slopes Of the Quirlnal. It Is owl
dent that these are tho remains Of the
Notifications which Livy mentions as
having been built after the retreat II
the Gauls in the fourth century. The
existence OF any hill occupying this
spot is therefore abundantly dlsproved
without the commentators further ar
gument. which We do not consider
would be very conclusive In itself. He
has discovered that the column il go
exactly 100 feet high that the length
of the Roman foot has been more &C
curately fixed in accordance with IL
He argues against the probability Of a
hill existing Of such accurnte measure
ment Surely 4 columna centenaria,
being = stereotype, might well have
been chosen to mark the removal of q
hill Of about that height. We cannot
accept the commendatore's positive ex-
PLANTATION Of the inscription Is very
convincing. He considers it to refer
to the height and proportions of the
buildings on the level OF the Forum Ul-
plum and on the slope of the neighbor-
ing hill. We cannot follow him in ex-
tracing this meaning from the Latin
words which remain to us as little ex-
plicable as before.
