WRIT STAYS THAW TRIAL
Attorney General Gets Court
Order Against Sanity Jury.

Action was taken yesterday by the
Attorney Generals Office to vacato the
order of Justice Hendrick, of the Su-
preme Court, granting a jury trial TO
determine the sanity of Harry X. Traw.
Leonard J. Obermeier, Deputy Attor-
ney General, obtained from the Appel
late Division an alternative writ OF
prohibition TO restrain Justice Hen
drick from putting his order into eff
feet. Counsel for Thaw are required
to show cause on May 7 why the writ
should not be made absolute.
It is the contention of the Attorney
General that Justice Hendrick was
without legal authority to grant the
jury trial. The only remedy, the At
torney General said, to prevent "the
improper and illegal assistance of
body purporting to be jury" was a
writ of prohibition.
