The Thaw Verdict.

Now that a jury has at last passed
upon the sanity Of Harry Thaw, af-
ter a hearing of three weeks, few
more legal formalities are expected
to finally end long drawn out legal
contest and restore Thaw his liberty
The foreman of the jury in an inter
view said that he and the other mem.
bers of the jury believed that Thaw
was eccentric. and, possibly. mental.
| ly weak, but that they did not be.
lieve that he would harm anyone else.
Thaw began his fight for freedom
following the Staying of Stanfo d
White on the roof of Madison Square
Garden on the night of June 25. 1906.
After two sensational trials. the first
of which resulted in disagreement.
Thaw was acquitted on the ground
of insanity. but was ordered commit.
ed to Matteawan.
In 1908, Thaw's counsel obtained
writs of habeas corpus requiring his
examination in court with view to
establishing his sanity, but these
denied
Thaw subsequently made a dash
for liberty in August. 1913. escaping
in an automobile to Coaticook, Que
bee, where he was arrested. He lat
er was released and sent back across
the border, being arrested in New
/ Hampshire. There a commission de-
clared him mentally sound. Then fol.
lowed many legal battles to prevent
Thaw's return to New York. He lost
and was brought back here, and with
those who aided in his escape, was
tried on cha ge of conspiracy. All
were acquitted. Thaw having been
declared mentally sound in New
Hampshire, his counsel then started
proceedings here to have his sanity
established in the state which still
were fighting to have him returned
to Matteawan A motion for a trial
by jury was granted by Judge Hen
drick April %, The trial was begun
on June %. Thaw's actions at the
climax were not those of an insane
nan. When the verdict was an
nounced he arose from his seat at the
counsel table turned around and
grasped the hand Of several of his
counsel. Then he went TO where his
mother was sitting few feet away
and. throwing bis arms about her
neck. kissed her twice. AS soon as
the jury was dismissed Thaw crossed
to the box and shook hands warmly
with each Of the men. His mother
also shook hands with the jurymen,
saying to each; Thank you so much
for all that you have DONE" AS he
left the court room with officers. a
great crowd outside cheered him as
he smilingly showed his pleasure.
