HARRY THAW STILL is INSANE.
Justice Keoeh Says His Release
Would be a Menace.

White Plains, N. Y, July 26th.-
Harry K. Thaw, in the eyes of the
law, is still insane, and must remain
in the asylum where he was placed on
February /, 1908, after he had killed
Stanford White.
Justice Martin j. keogh, of the
|supreme court today denied Thaw's
application for freedom. The court
took the ground that Thaw's release
would be dangerous to public safety.
In his opinion Justice Keogh briefly
referred to the several efforts of Thaw
to obtain his discharge from the
asylum.
"In May 19OS,' he said, she (Thaw)
obtained a writ of habeas corpus to
secure mis- discharge on the ground
that he was then sane. The question
of his sanity was carefully inquired
into by Mr.. Justice Morschauser, who,
in an able opinion, declared that he
was then insane and that it would be
unsafe to set him free.
"ln June 1909, another writ of hab-
cas- corpus was issued in his behalf
and an inquiry was held into his san
ity and lucid opinion written by Mr..
Justice Mills, in which he declared
that he was then insane and that it
was dangerous to the public peace
and safety to grant his discharge.
"The present writ was obtained to
secure the release of Harry K. Thaw
on the ground that he is now sane,
and the question of his present sanity
or insanity was the subject of an in
quiry occupying eighteen days, during
which he had the aid of the most
able and faithful COUNSEL
Thaw procured copy of the de-
cision shortly after it had been given.
He read it only with seeming indif-
ference.
1t was stated by an acquaintance
that Thaw lost heart after DR.. J. w.
Russell, superintendent of the Mat
teawan insane asylum, testified that,
in his opinion, Thaw might commit
another murder if freed.
