HARRY X. THAW
is RECOMMlTTED

White Plains. n. Y, Oct. 12-Harry
K. Thaw will have to remain in the
state hospital for the criminal insana
at Matteawan now until the court of
appeals shall decide whether he is en-
titled to a hearing before jury to.
determine the question of his sanity.
Justice Mills OF the supreme court re-
fused a week or two ago TO graft
the application of Thaw's counsel for
Il jury trial on the sanity question, and
decided to hear the case himself. The
hearing WAS fixed for today. When
Thaw was brought into court his
mother and several relatives We're pre-
sent. The prisoners counsel again
moved for jury trial ana when this
was denied asked that Thaw be dis
charged from custody on the grounds
that the jury in the last trial for
murder did not find him insane. This
also was denied. Thaw's counsel then
declared that they had appealed to the
New York state court of appeals from
the decision refusing a jury trial and
that until the higher court had given
a decision they would submit no evi.
dence on the question of Thaw's sanity
Justice Mills said there was no other
alternative than for Thaw to be re-
turned TO Mutteawan asylum and he
was ordered TO be returned to that
institution.
Dist. Atty. Jerome of New York. who
Withdrew from the case when Justice
Mills refused to transfer It to New
York, did not appear in court today.

teal party leaders today to induce

has been "a marked falling of III

presidential years. Last night meet
ings were held at political headquar-
ters throughout the greater city and
strenuous campaign for the workers
was mapped out for today.
Word was passed along to captains
of election districts that they must
bring out the voters and as result.
captains We're out as early as o'clock
Interviewing unregistered citizens.
Some men, especially those who cam
not write, the captains reported, said
they did not care to stand the stress of
the new law, while others had simp-
" grown apathetic. Throughout the
upper west side the early registration
today was reported to be fairly good"
