Butler on Monday called the attorneys in
the case into his chambers at the count '

we feel that Mr.. Duncan should not be
allowed his liberty until he has been under
observation of some state experts wh3

the jury returned verdict of not guilt
by reason of insanity at the time of the
shooting and we shall not permit him tG
be at large until satisfied that this condi-
ton of the mind will not return.
we clearly instructed the jury that ir
resistible impulse or emotional insanity
alone was not an excuse for the juStiiica-
ton of crime unless it was the produc,
Of diseased mind. Now, then, eith-r
the jury followed instructions and found
that this mans mind was diseased a the
time Of the shooting, or else the jury wen
contrary to instructions and the verdict
should he set aside. We have therefore
decided not to release Duncan without al
