Court Better Fitted Than Jury.

After all your years of experience" said
Mr.. Jerome, your honor is better fitted TO
Judge the merits Of this case than a jury.
This is not an ordinary case of insanity,
and only the clinical history of the case
can be presented, that no ordinary layman
serving on a jury would understand
Tventy-eight volumes Of testimony were
taken at the first and second hearings.
Would you submit such ali important mat
ter to a jury of inexperienced men? They
would not comprehend il at all 1t would
be impossible to get jury that had not
read about or discussed the case, as to
whether or not Thaw was justified in Kill
ing Stanford White.
Many OF the facts relating to the tragedy
would creep into the case. l think that
when the Jurors got into the jury room
they would discuss the question as to
whether Thaw was justified in killing
White instead of whether Thaw is sane or
insane a question arose during the argu-
ment as to whether or not the whole rec
ord OF the case, comprising twenty-eight
volumes. would he produced and read in
court"
Mr.. Jerome asked MIR. Shearn if he would
ytipulate to read this testimony. Not un-
less IL Is done over my dead body" de-
clared MIR. Shearn. Then 1t was that Mr..
about a hundred witnesses. Justice Keogh
smiled and said he would limit the number
81 insanity experts OH each side to four.
