COMMISSION
IN LUNACY
Toward Which Jerome
Steadily Moves
He Also Plans a Further
Attack On Mrs. TbaW'S
Credibility.

New York. Feb. 27-Interest in the
Thaw trial today conferred in the man
euvers Of Jerome who seemed 10 give
further indication of his purpose in the
near future to apply for a commission
in lunacy to report on the present
condition OF the defendants mind.
The witness stand for the greater
part OF the day' was occupied by Dr.
Evans. director Of tho New York hos
pital for the insane ard alienists for
defense who were W for cross ex-
animation.
Jerome seemed to direct his efforts
to getting from Evans evidence as to
the exact recognized forms Of insan-
ity from which the expert had declar-
ed Thaw was suffering at the time of
the brain storm" which resulted in
the killing Of White. Evans testified
that in his win Thaw displayed owl
dcnces Of a melanchOlIc state OF mind.
The district attorney dwelt Tor an
hour upon the subject Of melancholia
and asked the expert If it was not true
that in acute melancholia there is a
recurrence Of affliction in at least one
third of all the cases. Evans said
there was.
Jerome said he intended calling as a
witness IN rebuttal, DIT Allan McLane
Hamilton the alienist who was first
employed BY the defense, but who has
not heretofore figured in the trial.
Hamilton recently returned from Eu-
rope and in a published interview is
reported TO have SAID that he came 10
the conclusion that Thlw was insane
at the time Of the tragedy and is in
sane now.
= The district attorney stated that h
would call DIT. Charles F. Bingamin Of
/ Pittsburg. the Thaw family physician
/ in rebuttal Bingamin was on tn
stand TODAY but Delmas objected wher
. Jerome started To cross examine The
/ physician as 10 insanity i'm the Thaw
/ family on tle ground that the witness
/ has not qualified as an expert.

dict her in a matter Of credibility. He
asked Mrs. Thaw If she had not told
her brother that Thaw treated her
cruelty while abroad because she refus-
ed To tell lies about White and say he
drugged and mistreated her. He want
cd 10 know If her brother had not
brought her a pistol with which she
might defend herself against Thaw.
The defendants wife denied absolutely
the truth Of any Of these statements.
Delmas announced that the defense
would conclude the case this week on
the assumption that the district at
torney would conclude the cross ex-
animation of DR.. Evans and DIR. Wag
ner TODAY During the cross eXamina-
tion OF Dr. Evans. the prisoner told the
reporters he was preparing a state

HARTMAN AND POLITICS.
Charges and Denials That He is Now
Bolstering Up Democracy.

Washington, Feb. 27.-Humphrey
Washington in favoring the ship sub
sidy bill in the house today said it was
an extension OF the protective system.
He said: Hill and Hartman are not
in favor Of these bills. The hand of
Hartman is in this house now. il is
over on tie democratic side trying 10
defeat these bills because Hartman
wants them defeated The reason is
plain because Hartman has said he
would not take advantage OF this sub
sidy. He cannot because he viii have
to change his crews: he viii have to
run regular schedules; he will have to
go TO the Philippines. He said he would
not vote TO report any bill that would
not provide that the flag shall go TO
the Philippines.
He charged the demOcratice party
with trying to keep this country from
holding communication with the Phil
ippines in order 10 bring disgrace upon
our administration in these Islands.
"Thev hope TO inveisle us into war
with Japan. 10 make us so weak that
Japan viii attack US. then they hope 10
ride into power over the country's dis
grace" he said.
Sullivan Of Massa chusetts interrupt

serious charge about this side of the
house. I should like 10 ask you 10 sub
nit some particle Of evidence upon
which the charge is based. that Har-
rimans hand is felt on this side of the
house. Either prove or withdraw ii.
Humphrey reiterated what he had
said about Hill and Hartman.
Sullivan retorted that he would be
willing 10 let both statements go TO
the country.

COMPLAINT.

When it comes to arresting Deem
water lrishmen and others who take
a tilt from the water wagon, the
police of Bluefeld can be considered
the best in the country, but when
the simple question of police pro-
lection evolves itself into legitimate
transactions they are as obtuse as
an oyster on dry land or an elephant
in the middle of the Atlantic A sin
sle instance of their inability to
perform the duties assigned them
can be found i'm the fact that on
last night a youth by the name of
mead, who has resided in this place
for years, was arrested in the Wind
'5r bar for being deserter from
me Navy, when as a matter of fact
the boy never saw a larger body of
'ater than Tug river.
A policeman who doesn't know
his own heuchmen should be as
gned to tine pillow i'm Bland.
