THAw's SANITY.
jerome Will Join In Request For .
pointment of a Commission.

FSif&'hNik VI q
New York, Feb. 16-The following
statement as to District Attorney
Jerome's position with regard to the
sanity or insanity of HGrry Thaw was
made:
"Mr. Jerome does not know wheth
er or not Thaw is insane. None of his
assistants know. None of the experts
retained for the prosecution know
These experts have not had an oppor-
tunity to examine Thaw, eihter as to
his physical condition or his mental
caiiber. They are present in court at
the trial with an open mind. They
would like to know. If any experts
retained for the defense, some of whom
have already testified. will say author.
itatively that in their opinion Thaw is
not insane the district attorney will
join them in a request to the court
for the appointment of a committee
to decide upon the question of Thaw's
sanity"
Death has again invaded Thaw's en-
vironment. Close on the passing of
the wife of Joseph B. Bolton, one of
the jurors, came the announcement of
the death in a hospital of Michael d.
Downey who, for months, had been
Thaw's night keeper on the second
tier of cells of the tombs, which is
known as ''murderers' row" Downey
had been a keeper in the tombs for
more than twenty-eight years. When
Thaw first came to the tombs he did
not look with favor upon the new pris-
oner. But during the long watches of
the night. when Thaw paced up and
down the narrow confines of his cell,
warm friendship sparng up between
the keeper and the prisoner. When
DOWney was buried a wreath bearing
Thaw's card rested on the casket.
Thaw sent the order for the flowers
to Warden Flynn soon after he heard
OF the keepers death.
Harry C. McPike of counsel for
Thaw, said: When the trial is resum-
ed Dr. Evans will conclude his testi-
mony, and DR.. Wagner will be recall
ed to tell of his conversations with
conversations which were ruled
out last week. Then Mr.. Thaw's wife
will finish her story, and his mother
will be called as a witness for the
first time. Finally, after Mr. Thaw's
will has been introduced as evidence
it is probable that the family physi-
clans of the Thaw family will COM
plete their testimony. The alienists
will be asked few final questions in
order to round the case and then, I'M
less something new develops. the de-
Tense will probably rest"
