Noted Alienist Still In

ParanOiac
PHYSICIAN GETS
SEVERE GRILLING
Admits No Signs of
ParanOia Have Shown
in Court

NEW YORK. July 13.-(SpeciaD--
DR.. Austin Flint, famous as the alien
ist who has been the nemesis OF
Harry X. Thaw. slayer Of Stanford
White, was the first witness for the
commonwealth this morning in the
inquiry into the mental condition Of
Thaw, and 1t was expected he would
undergo some more grilling. Flint
had a rather unhappy time on the
stand yesterday afternoon, both John
b. Stanchfeld. counsel for Thaw.
and Justice Hendrick taking a hand
In pressing him closely with ques-
tions. Although plainly elated at
the turn things had taken as regards
Flint, Thaw did not smile. He did
not even look at the physician who
In so many Thaw trials, had given
damaging expert testimony against
him. II was felt by the defense that
Flint had made admissions yesterday
afternoon that we're very favorable
for Thaw. and II was expected that
other statements would be secured
this morning. after which the bal
ance of the states alienists will bt
heard.
Flint admitted that Thaw had Civ
er no sign in court that he was suf
fering from panaroia or any othei
form of insanity: that there was M
way Judge or Jury could tell {

the word OF the alienists. He sait

Government agents and New
York detectives. under Police Com
missioner Woods. are on the New

Both the government agents and
Commissioner Wood are inclined to
believe that several Of the men en-
gagged in the conspiracy Will admit
their connection with 1t and expose
the entire scheme when they are
placed under arrest.
"The authorities declared the plot
TO destroy the liners is one of the
biggest that has developed since the
war began. and that II is backed
by an almost unlimited amount OF
money. II was stated. too, that pub
lication of the names of the inner
circles controlling the conspiracy,
will cause tremendous surprise.
Every pier will be guarded very
closely and every package will be
examined before it gets aboard a
liner.
"The bombs which have been
found in several ships and which
the detectives say were placed In
many others sailing from the Unit
ed States to the Allied countries are
not OF dynamite. but OF highly in
fiammable chemicals which are de-
signed to burst into flames from the
heat OF the ships hold.
"The bombs found on all the ships
were similar. They were small
cylinders, constructed of zinc. about
four inches long and one and a half
inches in diameter. They resemble
shotgun shells. and at the base OF
the bomb was q screw cap and a
small tap. supposedly for the intro
ducticr of the chemicals. They are
self-consuming and only their fail
ure to explode caused their discov'
cry"

They Run The Churches and Keep Out Of

Here is a strong argument used by

favor Of Woman's Suffrage in New

The majority Of inmates Of the
penitentiary are men; the majority q
the members Of churches are women.
II the women have sense enough TO

Stanley will be inaugurated governor
Of this commonwealth on December 1th
for a term of four years, and to that
high office he will bring his great ability,
wears of training and an answering
determination to do his full duty.
That Stanley was elected is due to
the fidelity and devotion of his friends,
who never faltered for moment and
who never doubted for an instant the
iustiee of their cause, and who were
ready at every call of their leader 10
assault the janizaries of special priVl-
lege or the citadels of designing lob
byists. says the Owensboro Enquirer.
That such a crusade should engender
opposition is not strange. To have won
such fight is glorious. ,
That there should be wailing and
crashing of teeth is certain quarters is
but natural. The closeness Of the re-
sult and the efforts made in McCreary
county and elsewhere to change the re-
suit served to disclose the extent OF
the treachery and the consplrators.
The frequent visits made to Republican
Headquarters, by men calling themsel-
YES Democrats and who have heretofore
been honored by this party, emphasize
the extent of the opposition and their
desperate eagerness to defeat Mr..
Stanley, although his defeat meant
Democratic disaster and the defeat OF
Democratic principles.
Stanley knows the names of these
men, calling themselves leaders, who
have sought to ambush him and as
sassinate his party. He knows the
purposes that animated them. He
knows them to be political pirates that
would "sand-bag a corporation or loot
a campaign fund" He knows that
their abiding place is the "shack that
graft built, and that they are bound
together by the binding tie of ill-got-
ten gain.
To have won, over the reunite ed Re-
publican party would have been great
victory, and to have won over it when
aided and abetted by these distressed
and discredited elements. driven from
the Democratic party, is inspiring.
Such a victory comes as a deliverance
to the people. The system called I'm
visible government" has been beaten.
The ruler of the state tor the next four
years, at least, will be a man authoriz-
ed by the laws Of the state and votes
of the people to rule it. No party boss
or paid lobbyist will direct Stanley's
administration. The rule of the peo-
pie is to prevail.
The government of this state is to be
the government of the constitution.
Special privilege and personal politics
will not control. The peanut politician
will be without an occupation. Unnec-
essary offices. if any, will be abolished
Economy in public service will be main
tanned. The eleemosynary institutions
are safe. The progressive legislation
enacted by democratic legislature
will be Democratic IN spirit, fair in its
operation and just in its purpose. The
past is secure, the future is resplendent
with better things.
All hail, Governor Stanley, a leader,
with nerve that never relaxes, the
eye that never blanches, and the
thought Of his fellow man that never
Wanders.
