HARRY THAW'S SANITY Matter Again Before New York Court for Settlement, TAKING OF EVIDENCE BEGUN Presiding Justice Unwilling to Decide Constitutional Questicn Raised by Thaw’s Attorneys Until Testimony Is introduced. Poughkeepsie, N. Y., May 15.—The hearing on the writ of habeas corpus in behalf of Harry K. Thaw to secure his release from the Matteawan asy- lum, began before Justice Morschauer here. Thaw was brought into court and took a seat between his attorneys, A. Russell Peabody and James G. Gra- |ham. There were twenly women among the 400 spectators. When the judge had ascended the bench Mr. Graham made a formal motion for the discharge of Thaw on the ground that no testimony.as to his sanily or to show that it would endanzer public safety to have him at la was taken at the time of his commitment; that his commitment did not comply with the statutory requirement and that Thaw had no opportunity to be heard nor to offer evidence as to his sanity. Mr. Graham argued that Thaw’s con- finement is unconstitutional. “This man was entitled to a presumption of sanily at the time this commitment was made,” said Mr. Graham. Justice Morschauer said that he was unwilling to decide the constitu- tional question apart from the sanity question unless the relator would agree to waive the question of san- ity. It was arranged to proceed with the trial of both the constitutional and in- sanity questions, the judge reserving his decision on the former. Dr. Frank McGuire, physician at the Tombs prison, was the first witness. He said that he saw Thaw nearly every day while he was in the Tombs and that he seemed “perfectly recep- tive and perfectly responsible. In my opinion he was rational,” said Dr. Me- Guire, “and that was my opinion when he left the Tombs.” GOOD ROADS CONGRESS. Call Issued for First Convention of National Body.
