Judge DowIing's Questions.

 important questions to the witness, evidently for the purpose of his own guidance in the event of a verdict of acquittal on the ground of insanity when it was in the discretion of the court to commit the defendant to an asylum for the criminal insane.
 Tn maniac depressive insanity, queried the justice, "are the attacks likely to recur?'
 Yes" replied pr. Wagner.
 "Is there any way of telling when they are about to occur? Are the at tacks more apt to occur if the first symptoms manifested themselves early in life?"
 "The frequency of recurrence is a matter of speculation?"
 "Yes."
 Ut is safe then to predict frequent attacks when. the mania and melan- choly manifested themselves in early life?"
 If you are considering a person in middle life I think you have right to expect frequent and more violent out breaks in the future
 This seemed to satisfy Justice Dowl- ing.
 Doctors Evans and Jeliffe then were called and each stated the opinion that Thaw did not know the nature or quail ty of his act or that the act was wrong.
 Justice Bowling also questioned Dr. Jelliffe as to symptoms of maniac depressive" insanity.
 Are persons suffering from recur : rent attacks of this insanity likely to commit assaults?" he asked.
 ooh. yes" replied pr. Jeliffe.

Dr. Gauia Testifies.

Next came Dr. Maurice Gauja of Paris, who gave his testimony through the off eial court interpreter. He attended Thaw in Paris in the spring of 1901, when he attempted suicide by swallowing lauda- mum. pr. Gauja described Thaw's con dition, but said he had not diagnosed 1t as laudanum poisoning. At first he thought 1t was ptomaine poisoning
 Mr. Littleton here announced that with the exception of the testimony of the for eign witnesses who had just testified the hypothetical question of the experts was complete.
 Dr. Smith-Ely Jeliffe of Columbia uni- versity was sworn, and it was agreed that the question should be read to him and Drs. Charles G. Wagner of Binghamton N r., and Britton D. Evans of Morris Plains N. J., at the same time.
 MT. Littleton began to read the ques- ton to the experts and to the jury at 12:S0 D. m. He read for ten minutes only, when the luncheon recess was ordered.

pr. Wagner on Stand.

A half hour recess followed and then Dr. Charles G. Wagner, superintend- ant of the state hospital for the in sane at Binghamton, N. Y., was called to the stand. pr. Wagner said that as the result of his examination of Thaw in the Tombs, he concluded the defendant was of unsound mind. In answer to the hypothetical question, pr. Wagner said he believed, from the facts set forth, therein, that Harry Thaw, on the night of June 25, 1906, when he shot and killed Stanford White, was suffering from such a defect of reason as not to know the nature or quality of his act, or that the act was wrong.
 Dr. Wagner was asked to explain maniac depressive insanity" to the jury, one of the foreign physicians having applied this term to Thaw's out breaks abroad. The witness said it was a circular form of insanity where periods of maniacal violence were fol- lowed by spells of depression or mel ancholia and hen by period of san ity, the same process recurring from time to time,

Jerome Strikes a snag.


 District Attorney Jerome said: Maniac depressive" insanity was new one III the case and he wanted the cross-exami- nation of the witness to go over until to- morrow. Justice Bowling overruled this suggestion but ordered a half hour recess and said he would continue the session until all experts had been examined.
 Dr. Evans was the first witness called by MT. Jerome for cross-examination. He asked the witness if he did not testify at the last trial that Thaw was suffering from "brain storm It was some time before the witness could be induced to give a yes or no answer. When he final- ly said "Yes,' MT. Jerome dramatically dropped a heavy book on the table with a bang and said: That's all.
 Dr. Jelliffe was then called
 ''Did not you testify last year that you didn't know which form of insanity this defendant was suffering from?" asked the prosecutor.
 q did."1z
 On redirect examination the witness said at the time of the last trial he did not know of much of the evidence that was introduced this year.
 The district attorney spent more time with Dr. Wagner, going over much of the witness testimony as given last year. MT. Jerome also read from the affidavit of Dr. Wagner made last year before the commission in lunacy. The affidavit con- tained many statements made in court by the defendant to Dr. Wagner. MT. Je- rome introduced them to show that Thaw had knowledge and remembrance of events immediately preceding the trag- edy on Madison Square roof garden.

LlttIeton Objects.

MT. Littleton objected to the attorney s question on the ground that it violated the rights of witness as guaranteed by the constitution and was in effect com polling him to testify against himself. Justice Bowling overruled the objections and the evidence was allowed to go in.
 On redirect examination Dr. Wagner said that in maniac depressive' insan- ity the memory of the patient often was not impaired.
 MT. Littleton here announced that the defense rested.
 District Attorney Jerome moved that all of the evidence of Evelyn Nesbit Thaw be stricken from the record on the ground that she had not produced in evidence the fourteen letters from Stanford White she showed Thaw in Paris. He said that only a part of her story had been told, that certain evidence had been selected for presentation and certain other evidence left out.
 MT. Lttleton objected to the district at torney making a speech and Justice Dow ling said there was no use to proceed fur ther.
 Mir. Jerome asked that the testimony of Hummel be taken at the pententiary on Blackwell's Island. as Hummel is too i'll to come to the court. The defense object ed Justice Bowling said that if necessa- ry he would go to the prison tomorrow night with the district attorney. the de- 'fendant and his counsel to take the tes- timony. The matter finally was left over for determination tomorrow. The court adjourned at 6:45 D. m.
