asserting his sanity, Harry *. ThaN
today published a statement reviewing
the evidence given in the recent hear
ing on his application for release from
Matteawan. In his argument to sus-
tain his contention that he is sane
Thaw said that, according to the alien
lists. District Attorney Jerome has
proved him to be sane, 'forty-fivo
times over in his long questioning.
Thaw's statement follows:
THE following is all l have to say
about the trial
mt. Jcrome's witnesses We're an un-
professional lawyer and an unfortunate
woman who contradicted each other,
also three of his peculiar alienists and
Dr. Baker, who from his testimony
wlich might have been on either side
except that he showed some unfriend-
lIncss toward us and could not remem-
Der many admissions he had made to
me and to Mr.. Pilgrim.
"Dr Baker admitted he did not be-
licve in souls because he had never
seen any Dr.. Mcdonald and Dr. Flint
refused to believe what Jerome had
solemnly stated to a jury, so | hardly
think any judge could believe any of
them
THE best experts have informed mo
that if ahs insane mda WINS questioned
for tWcni9 minutes as jerome cues
toned me. he would assaredly show
his insanity. AS jerome kept this upI
over fifteen hours in all during the
tr'a' he proved me sane forty-fiyel
times o.er.
Mr. Jerome at the second trial af-
ter telling the jury why he had mott
produced DR.. Flint and company said
he would submit the case to human
intelligence.
IT seems | must be perfectly sane !
if hard headed. sensible men who slept
in the same room with me. saw me un-
dress and go to sleep and wake up

customed to observing both sane and

lty ten times better than whether or
not | could handle Mr. jerome in a
fourteen and a half hours debate on
