s ||'S''|tN' 10 An ASYLUM
Jury Holds ThaW Insane When
He Killed Stanford White.
MENACE TO PUBLIC SAFETY
Justice Bowling Declares Evidence in
Case Indicates Recurrence Of
Disease Reasonably Certain.

New York, Feb. Acquitted of the
murder Of Stanford White on the
ground that he was insane at the
time of the commission of the homi-
eide Harry K. Thaw was ordered by
Justice bowling to- be comuAted to
the Matteawan asylum for the Grim
incl insene until such time as he can
convince the state lunacy commission
that his being at large will not endan.
ger the public safety. Thaw was led
back to the Tombs across the bridge
Of s1ghs' and several hours later was
taken to Matteawan.#
Both Thaw and his wife, the latter
being the only member of the family
in court when the. jury unexpectedly
returned its verdict after a delibera-
tion Of twenty-five hours, seemed
pleased and satisfied with the outcome
Of the case. Thaw stood and smiling
ly bowed his acknowledgements to the
jurors as they filed one by one out Of
the box. District Attorney Jerome also
seemed satisfied, as he has contended
ever =siltce. the crime was committed
thaty Thaw was medically, II not le-
galiy, insane. Thaw's counsel thanked
the jurors with a hearty handshake
for each one of thes twelve. Attorney
Littleton also filed, an. exception to
Justice Dowling's decision in retaining
Thaw in custody and committing him
to the asylum.
The jurymen all refused to divulge
essecrets *of their deliberations fur
ther than to say that fourteen ballots
were taken. ~~ @'3"
Dangerous to Public Safety.
In announcing his decision to send
Thaw to Matteawan Judge Bowling
said: --~-
THE only testimony in this case
upon which a verdict of insanity
could be, based was to the effect that
the defendant is suffering from a
manic Oppressive form of mental de-
rangement. This testimony and the
diagnosis of the form of insanity was
based upon prior outbreaks of the de-
fendant as testified to by witnesses
from London, Monte Carlo, Paris and
Albany. 1t also appears from the tes-
tin,ony, and the court was careful to
inquire as to this, that occurrences of
these attacks are reasonably certain
There has been no testimony adduced
here to show that a person suffering
from this form of insanity ever can be
permanently cured. 1t appears, how.
ever, that during the maniacal form
Of the disease the person suffering
therefrom is likely to commit danger
GUS assaults or murder. There is dan
ger also of suicide.
Therefore, upon all the testimony
in this case, the court deems that to
allow the defendant to go at large
would be dangerous to the public
safety. The decision of the court is
that the defendant shall not be dis
charged, but being in custody shall be
so held and committed with all dis
patch to the state hospital for the
criminal insane at Matteawan. The
sheriff of the county is directed to
take custody of the defendant and
deliver him to the state authorities at
Matteawan."

The improvement to be made in the
district consists of approximately
twenty-five miles of ditch, containing
about 100000 yards. The two steam
dredges which will do the work will be
placed upon the ground at once and
be ready to commence throwing dirt
as soon as the frost goes out of the
ground. These dredges will require
about $50 tons of high grade coal for
use during the coming summer, which
will be shipped to Plainfield by rail-
road and then hauled by team and
distributed along the line of the ditch
right-of-way, about 40 tons to the mile,
and about an equal amount will be res
quired for use in the summer of 1909,
but that will not be distributed until
next winter.
If the development of this marsh is
as successful as it is hoped and ex-
pected, it5will add about 1900 acres
| to the tillable land in Adams county.
The people of Plainfield are highly
pleased over the fact that the marsh
is to be improved by the reason that
when settled upon and cultivated a
large part of it will be tributary to
the village. Stevens Point Journal.
