Case Will End Soon and White’s Slayer Made Attempt in Courtroom, PRISONER ONLY LAUGHS, Case May End To-Night and Thaw Is Confident of His Freedom. Dr. Austin Flint, nearly eighty years old and a foremost alienist, to- day at Harry Thaw’s sanity hearing before Justice Hendrick and an ad- visory jury, accused Thaw of trying to hypnotize him in the courtroom. He was being nagged by John B. Stanchfield, Thaw's chief counsel, to whom he had admitted yesterday he had seen no signs of insanity in Thaw at the present trial. “Did you see him do anything in that chair or in this courtroom now indicating insanity?” demanded Mr, Stanchfield. “Thaw tried to hypnotize me.” “He did what?" “He tried to hypnotize me, by staring at me.” “Where?” “When I was sitting down there on the floor he stared at me steadily for fifteen minutes, THAW TRIED HARD TO SUP- PRESS HIS LAUGHTER. ‘There was a momentary disturban, caused by 'Thaw’s efforts to suppress his laughter, He rocked back and forth with his face in his hands. Dr, Flint continued: “It is in the record in this case that he studied hypnotism to reform young girls.” “Do you really belleve he meant to hypnotize you?” “Well, maybe not.” Then the alienist's cross-examination ended. Dr. Raymond C, Kieb, superintend- ent of the Matteawan State Hospital from which Thaw escaped, and Dr, Amos T, Baker, resident physician there and once acting superintendent, were present in the court, prepared to follow Dr. Flint on the witness stand.
