ALIENIST ON THE STAND
Captain Hams Suffering From I'm
pulsive Insanity When He
Killed Annis.

Flushing, y. Y, jan The trial of
Thornton J. Hams passed today to that
stage frequent in homicide cases, where
testimony is developed from medical ex-
perts and alienists. Hams counsel placed
on the stand DIT. l. Samuel Manson, an
alienist, who after listening to a hypo-
thetical question regarding Captain Hams
sanity, declared that on Aug Is when
Captain Hams shot William Z. Annis, he
was suffering from impulsive insanity.
The long cross examination of Thornton
J. Hams was concluded at the morning
session and the defense began the pre-
sentation of expert testimony to prove the
insanity of Captain Hams. The prison
physician was not permitted to tell his
opinion of Captain Hams sanity. and ii
looked as if the defense would be unable
to get the alienists testimony before the
jury. DR.. Manson stated he had not
treated Captain Hams as his patient, but
had simply observed him, 1t was then
that the hypothetical question, which re-
quired one hour and fifteen minutes, was
read to the alienists-
DR. Manson stated that Captain Hams
suffered from melancholia following the
shooting, and this mental condition
showed an improvement. Before an OBJ
lection could be entertained to an inter
rOgation the slienist stated that Captain
Hams was sane when he last saw him
The cross-examinatiOn of Dr. Manson
was under way when the court adjourned
until tomorrow.
