Thaw Sane is Verdict Of New York Grand Jury.

After listening to testimony for nearly three weeks, the jury in the Thaw insanity case brought a verdict of sane Wednesday afternoon. The verdict, given after the jury had been out only 48 minutes, thrilled the court room. Two ballots were taken by the jury. Friday Justice Hendrick will announce if Thaw will be allowed to vacate his cell at the state hospital for the criminal insane in Matteawan and thus allow him the freedom which he has fought for in the courts for nine years.
