New York, March 8.-In the room where he twice faced a jury for the murder of Stanford White, Harry K. Thaw today went on trial for conspir Ing to escape from the State Hospital for the Criminal Iusane at Alatteawan. With him as co-defendants were five muen, who, the State charges, were par ties to the alleged conspiracy. The en thre (lay was required to complete the jury. Taking of testimony will begin tomorrow. I From the outset it was evident that the trial would be another fight for Thaw's freedom. The defendant's at torneys plainly intimated that, with - tlh permission of the Court, they would offer evidence designed to prove the client was sane when he escaped fror the asylum. Such being the case, they 1 said, In examining talesmen, the de s fondant was being detained illegallI I at the time of his flight. . They asked prospective juror c against a man of sound mind who use( t whether they would be prejudiceu against a inal1 of sound mind who usc< . any means at his command to escap a from a hospital for the insane. Q These statemients were ampified lat a er .by John B. Stanchileld, Thaw's chic counsel, who said that should the jir: find his client not guilty he limmedi ately would sue out a writ of habea corpus on the ground that "his deten n tion was illegal, because the jur; C would have established his sanity." I- "The State's contention, as outline a while an assistant district attorne was questioning talesmen, is thr h1 Thaw, also insane at the time of hi .c escape, nevel'theless was competent t enter into a conspiracy, and that I I, should be punished accordingly. it Deputy Attorney General Kenned: 'C in charge of the prosecution, said the a if Thaw were found guilty he woul ft be returned immediately to Matter I'- wan. The first witness, 'Mr. Kenned 'a said, would be William Penny, clerk < iI fhe criminMal brancih of the Suprew W Court, who will be asked to identil m the commitment papers on which Tha 1- was sent to the asylumi11 in 190"R. 'r On obtaining the jury each side usc - only th ree of its five -pereiptory chla :- len ges. Thaw now and then assisit id in selecting the jury'men. 1us co-d Iv fendants, however, rarely if ever offe I- od any suggestions. These co-defem 1 ant, are Richard .1.
