Crar5 the young drug clerk for
rnally charged with the murder of
Robert Lionel LeMasurier, the four
year-ofd son of Captain Joseph Lee
Masurier, WAS continued in Police
court yesterday morning at the re-
quest Of X. l.. Montague, counsel for
the defense, 10 March sth.
McCrary compounded preacrip-
ton containing bichloride Of mer-
curry which was given TO the child
and which caused It's death early
Monday morning. The verdict OF the
coroner's jury held no one directly
responsible, stating that the COM
pounding OF the fatal prescription
was the result of n misunderstand-
ing of DIR. l.. w Gees order over the
telephone. DR.. Gee stated that he
called for caiomel, but was not sure
that he did not use the term mild
chloride" another name by which
calomel ~ known. McCrary said
that he understood the physician to
say bichloride of mercury, and the
coroner's jury thought the mistake
due TO the similarity between the
sounds Of 'bi' and mild"
T. r. Fletcher. McCrary's employ
er, gave bond in the sum OF $500
fer his appearance in.Pollce court.

Vile She married her fathers nephew.
Lionel Sackylle West, now Lord
Sackvillc, in 1890. The only child
of the marriage. Lady Victoria Mary,

freed. DIR. Kennedy. who Is a visiting
surgeon to the Metropolitan hospital,
ON Blackwell's Island, said today after
the writ had been Issued.
"Thaw is as sane as anybody, and
l am sure of 1t. In company with DR.
O'Sullivan I have made a thorough
test of she patients condition, ami
have failed to find the slightest evil
dence OF paranoia. That is why l
have interested myself in the case.
l am fully convinced that the man is
being unlawfully detained"
Thaw to- Bear Expense.
DIR. Kennedy admitted that he got
into the case at the instance of Al
fred Henry Lewis. and said that Thaw
would probably bear the expense OF
the present proceeding.
DR.. Kennedy said he doesn't know
what the nature of the present fight
will be, because it hasn't been de-
termined upon.
When asked as to the nature of the
tests he conducted on Thaw DR.. Ken
nedy said:
1.-THE usual tests. You know 1t is
admitted by all physicians that per-
son suffering from paranoia cannot
converse with anyone very long at
time without making known his
particular decisions.

I'VE were with him for long time
and he conversed as clearly and as

In any particular"
The chief allegations in the petit
ton upon which the writ, of habeas
corpus was granted, are that Thaw
is ''illegaily detained" and that his
liberty would not prove a menace
TO the community" Attached to the
petition was the order of Justice Dow
ling committing Thaw TO Matteawan,
which recited that the Jury had ae-
quilted Thaw for killing Stamford

The predicament for Miss Heldwas
