CAPT. HAMS MOTHER
HELPING son ESCAPE
ELECTRIC CHAIR
Called as Witness Today in Murder Trial
to Tell Of Prisoners Early Life, His
Nervousness and Her Own 6ysteria..
Defense Expects to Reach Alienists by
Thursday.
Especial from United sPress.)


Flushing. May AIRS. Peter c..
Hams, Sr.. was brought from her New
York Hotel to-day to give her testi-
mony in connection with her son, Cap
tain Hams. on trial for the murder of
William z. Annis. The aged woman
has given way under the strain Of the
trials of two sons and was in very
bad way when she arrived here. but
insisted that she was strong enough
to do her part in helping the Captain
escape the electric chair. She was
called to tell of her sons early life, Of
the attacks of nervousness upon which
SO much stress has been laid and of
the hysteria with which she herself
was afflicted for many years Of her
married life. The defense has eleven
witnesses still to call. chief of whom
are Rev. Pardee of Naugatuck, Conn.,,
who it is claimed, was attacked in the
Long Island City Jail by Captain Hams
and DIR. Clarence M. Plat, Jail physi-
clan at Long Island City. The defense
hopes to reach it's alienists not later
than Thursday and the hypothetical
question that will be asked comprises
some ten thousand words.
John H. Rowen, lieutenant com
mander in the army was with Cap
tain Hams in the Philippines early in
1908. He related certain actions of the
captain which he characterized as ir-
rational. He was questioned at some
length as to the climate in the Philip
pines, this line being to get much of
his tropical service into the record
so that it could be made a part of the
Hypothetical. question.

the captain acted in an irrational man
