Was Removed to Springfield. Jail This Week on Court Order. With the return of Bertram G. Spencer from the Bridgewater insi tution to the Hampden coumty jail, Springfield, after a period of observa- tion lasting neariy ten Wnonths, the question of what will be the next stej in- the proceedings is the perplexing issue which is unanswered by those whoj are in a position to know, savs the ‘Springfield Union. Spencer, who is a native of Leba= non, Conn., was removed on ‘Wednas- day to the jail upon an order from Chief Justice John A. Aiken of the superior court, When Sheriff E. P, Clark was ask:d regarding the case Wednesday h clared \that Spencer had waxed fat and reticent, and that he does not talk so freely with his jail guards es during his confinement in the jail be- fore being ordered to the Bridzewater institution. - It is probable, that Spen- cer now fully realizes the gravity of the charge of murdering Miss Martha B. Blackstone, which has been pending against him since his arraignment las: year. During the first 24 hours of his con- finement he had not received and visit- ors and it was leatned that his young wife is now working in a Massachu- setts city and that their only child, a baby boy, is being cared for by the prisoner's’ parents in Lebanon. Three courses of procedure lie be- fore Spencer’s attorneys,.according to lawyers, and. of the three, trial by jury for the murder of Miss Black- stone, looks by far the likeliest to the ‘prefession, “Why, he can stand for trial,” said one lawyer. “I see no ne- cessity for any other action. A mo- tion for a commission to examine into his sanity, might be made, but I don’t think it is necessary and this is done only in extreme cases. I recall only one such at this moment.” Other than facing trial for the kill- ing of Miss Blackstone and a motion for a sanity commission, there re- mains the alternative of pleading guil- ty to second degree murder. & It is recognized, however, that the case must receive disposal eventually and that it will come late in the fall is believed by men inga position to know. It is denied by those interested in the defense of the Round hill mur- derer that the Bridgewater reports in- dicate that Spencer is sane at the preséht time, even though Chief*Jus- tice Aiken’s order is taken to be suf- ficient evidenc: that the reports con- tain reason for bringing him ‘to this city to stand trial, The defence for Spencer will still be. that he is now mentaily unsound and that he was insane at the time of.the murder. During the ten months and more that he has been at the Bridge- water asylura he has been examined frequently by expert olienists, presum- ably for hoth sides of the case, and for this reason it may be presumed that a motion may be made for the appointment of a commission to ad- judge if pe is sane. Such a motion has not been fil2d and usually in such cases this action is taken prior to the change of place of confinement of the prisoner and unless the usyal proced- ure is upset in this case, this may be reason enough to believe that a trial by jury is coming in the fall. It will not come in September at any event and is said to be slated for late in ths year. Y€&Tiet Justice John A. Aiken was in- terviewed at his home in Greenfield The chief justice had little to say con. cerning the situation. He regarded the reports which have come each month from Bridgewater as of a professional character and thatiwhich led to the order bringing Spencer back td the cit: to await trial he considered in the same category. These findingn, the chief justice sald, have been submitied to the-counsel on both sides and refer entirely to Spencer’s beravior while in the Bridgewater asylum, and the man charged with murder will be given a hearing or a trial this fall. _Meanwhile he will be kept in the York strec jail. s Spencer is repo¥ted not to have been a popular inmate at Bridge Whatever may ‘have been the opinion of the doctors, the attendants at the institution have not believed that he was insane. It is reported that even there he displayed some of his old d! Dosition to make trouble, although h craftiness appeared in putting up oth- ers to do it, S0 that he would not get caught himself. His mother has vis- ited him.there at least once since hi imprsonment. Spencer is reported to have said that it was very hard that he should be confined in such a place until it was brought flatly to his attention that he stoo@ under the charge of mur- der.
