An Insane Murderer.

That one Of the two youths who
were last year sentenced to imprison.
ment for life for the murder of q little
boy in Chicago has developed inan nifty
in confinement IL not surprising. Pub.
lie apprehension of a failure Of justice
through his eventual release is not
unnaturally expressed. The young
man was undoubtedly abnormal at the
time OF the commission OF the crime.
1t was, indeed, a crime OF dera ge.
ment, of moralmental disturbance. 1t
would have been surprising IL the
slayer OF Bobbie Frank had remained
in prison in balanced mental state.
Whether his comrade in crime like.
wise goes acutsly insane. as this
youth has done. he is still to be rated
as presumably of a paranoiac tendency.
Yet there was no public sympathy
for these boy-killers at the time of
their trial on the ground Of their men
tai deficiencies. The general demand
was for their punishment by execu.
ton. The sentence of the court that
they be confined in prison for life was
widely and vehemently denounced.
Fear was generally expressed that
their imprisonment would be brief
that the great wealth Of their parents
would eventually provide a way for
their parole or pardon and restoration
TO liberty. This fear is now revived in
the case OF the prisoner who has col
lapsed mentally and is reported to be
violently insane.
The seizure OF this lad in par
oxysm OF mania would seem rather to
insure his continual confinement az
one who is criminally insane. There is
liberty. There is no possible means of
protecting the public from such a des.
perately dangerous character other
than by close confinement. whether in
a hospital for the insane or in a prison
with facilities for tho humane care of
the patient prisoner.
That the outbreak OF mania in this
instance has evoked apprehension of
eventual liberation is a reflex OF the
weakening OF confidence in the effec-
tiveness Of the laws which prescribe
capital punishment for murder. In
numerous cases within recent wears
murderers have gone free after brief
confinement, having first escap ped the
death penalty on the plea of insanity,
then being declared cured and released
on parole. This present case will be
jealously watched by practically all
the people Of this country. lest such a
course be pursued, to the complete de-
feat Of justice.
