Show o The appointment of a commission in lunacy to determine whether Harry K. Thaw, the slay.r of Stanford W hitc, is sane or not was a great legal victory for District Attorney Jerome. Thaw should either go to the insane asylum for life or to the electric chair. District Attorney Jerome has an exceedingly uphill fght in prosecuting Thaw. The Thaw millions play an important part in the case. The money has been a potent factor in creating public sentiment in favor of the defendant and with a man of less integrity than Jerome there might be danger that it would have an effect on the prosecution. |
