That Joseph Salerno, held in Hartford jail pending dispo | ! the charge of wife murder, for which | ion e was indicted 1 ly insane and in all probability will never face a jury to answer for his crime, was admitted today by State’s| Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn, who ex- pressed the opinion that the confessed | slayer will prohably be transferred to | the Connecticut Hospital for Insane. | Acting on Mr. Alcorn’s st week, is hopeless- | suggestion | Judge John H. Webb, who is presiding | at the December term of the superior court, has appointed Drs. Thompson, mmett and Fisher to act as a com- mission in formally ruling as to the | murderer's sanity. They will make a report to the court, probably in a few days, and it is expected that they will advise that the prisoner be committed to the state hospital, According to reports of physicians who have had Salerno under observa- tion in the jail, where he has been confined since he was bound over by Justice Condell, the man is mentally unhalanced and his condition is be- lieved to be such that he will never recover. While he is seemingly sane at times, the doctors declare the slaver to be a paranoiac and the state’s at- torney expects that the commission appointed to inquire as to his mental condition will characterize him as such in making its report to the court. Under the .statutes Salerno will be kept in the asylum for life unless he recovers his reason. In that event he would be taken before a jury on the indictment of first degree murder re- turned by the grand jury and would be formally tried. Should the evidence show that he was insane when the murder took place but that he was ind mentally at the time of his trial a verdict for his acquittal would ) be returned and he would regain his: liberty, the Connecticut laws making it impossible to keep a man confined, after his reason has been restored, for ime for which he ws the time of its commitme Alcorn does not antic e such a contingency, however , doctors, who have examined the slayer, having dingnosed his case as incurable. The lack of a d of evidence show ny reason for the murder mado it ear from the first t Salerno was insane. The flendish manner in which he committed the crime and his lingering over the hody of his vietim while her life’s blood flowed from the | fatal razor slash served to strengthen the theory that the man was mentally unbalanced. His actions at the hospi- tal while he was being treated for the wounds which he inflicted on himself in an effort ta end his own life also proved to the satisfaction of the phy- sicians that his mind was affected. They had sufficient opportunity to de- tect any signs of shaming and they re- ported to the state's attorney that he DOCTOR SAVES A BLACKSMITH Some time ago I was taken with Kidney trouble which caused me to give up my work as blacksmith, T lost my appetite and could not sleep, from the dreadful pains that would coma over me, from my kidneys.
