With Murder.

B. Blackstone, was expected to be laid
bare today by the prisoners parents.
Mr. and Mrs. W. L. L. Spencer, of
Lebanon, Conn. Mrs. Spencer was eN-
pected to bring out the fact that as
boy Spencer was affected mentally by
beating he received. and that his mind
also was affected by long association
with an insane aunt with whom he 10
said to have made his home.
The attorneys for the defense IN
tended to begin the introduction or
expert testimony of alienists before
the hour of adjournment was reached.
Among these alienists summoned by
the defense were DIR. John A. Houston.

pital at Northampton. who was called
into the case by the commonwealth on
the day following Spencer's arrest;
Dr. l.. Vernon Briggs and Drs- Court

fense's experts.

HARRY THAW TAKES UP LAW.
Hopes to Show by His Studies He Is

MATTEAWAN, n. Y. November 16.-
Harry X. Thaw has begun the study Of
law in the library OF the state hos
pital here, where he is confined. Baked
in his lawyers latest attempts to gain
his release, Thaw now bases his hopes
upon his own resources. lie has acquired
a considerable knowledge of the law
in his dealings with the courts during
the past few years, and has shown
some originality and resource He has
recently collected evidence utilized at
the hearings on applications for writs
OF habeas corpus proceedings insti-
tuted by several of his fellow inmates.
He now hopes by applying himself
assiduously to master SO much of
Blackstone as will enable him to make
a satisfactory showing when he is ex-
amined next spring. Alienists who
have testified against him have de-
clared that no paranOiac can succeed
in the study of law. Thaw's project is
to show that he Is not paranoiac.
