GEORGE A. SHREINER Seventeenth and Forster Streets DECIDING IF WAITE SHALL DIE ON CHAIR [Continued From Firs! I'auc] New York, He testified that he hail determined from an examination of AVaite that the prisoner showed no sirens of defective intelligence. "He appeared as the average man of his early life and environment," said Dr. Joliffe. "My belief is that he was an average man, somewhat super ficial, inclined to be snobbish and of no great intellectual attainment. He appeared to be superficial In that he was trying to cover up, to conceal. "In my opinion he was sane.' I be lieve he knew the nature of the crime j he committed and was fully aware of ; all phases of it. Me had sufficient! mentality 1o appreciate his acts. He Was- s;sne when he killed Peek." "Do you consider Waite a normal man?" asked Walter R. Deuel, the prisoner's counsel. "That question cannot be answer ed," replied Dr. Jelliffe. "He is a criminal with a mind." Dr. William Mabon also testified for the prosecution, says he found no dis turbance of Dr. Waite's nervous sys tem. Dr. Waile paid more attention to the testimony of the alienists for the pros ecution than he had given to any other witnesses during the trial.

SATURDAY EVENING, i looked steadily at his wife for a few i moments when he was pronounced sane by Dr. Jelliffe. The prisoner smiled broadly and shrugged his | shoulders when Dr. Mabon testified ! that he believed Waite was acting. Dr. M. S. Gregory, of Bellevue hos ! pltal, called as a witness for the prose cution said he had examined Waite in that hospital anil concluded that he was sane. "Was he sane when he killed Mr. Peck?" asked the prosecutor. "I believe he was." said Dr. Gregory. Cross-examined by Mr. Deuel, Dr. Gregory said he believed Waite was posing when he assumed indifference while telling his story of the murders. Could Get Release From Awylum Following assertion that Waite is I suffering from moral imbecility, moml : idiocy anil moral insanity, the conclu sion announced late yesterday by Dr. I Morris J. Karpas, an alienist, in ans wer to the 5,000-word hypothetical ; question propounded by counsel for the ulentist, the insanity expert was asked jon cross-examination if he did not know that if Waite escaped the death i hair by going to an asylum he would j obtain his release on a writ of habeas j corpus, Dr. Karpas said, he did not j know. Walter It. Deuel consumed thirty five minutes in reading to Dr. Karpas the long hypothetical question, cover ing every crime Waite had admitted, together with his asserted ungovern able criminal tendencies, and then ask ed if, in his opinion. Waite was of unsound jnind: and. if so. from what mental diseases was he suffering. "He was suffering from moral idiocy, I moral imbecility and moral insanity," j replied Dr. Karpas. He added that these were recognized as mental dis- j eases. "Did Waite know what he was do ing?" asked Mr. Deuel. "He did itot," replied Dr. Karpas. "Did he know he was doing wrong?" "He did not." Waite listened with appearance of in difference when Dr. Karpas quoted him ■ as admitting he Intended to kill his j wife. Mrs. Clara Peck Waite, and her i parents from the time of his engage- j ment in order to obtain their money. Warren Waite, of Grand Rapids, the j elderly father of the murderer, listen- j ed with tears rolling down his cheeks to the long recital of his son's crimes told to save the dentist from the elec- j trie chair, on the assumption that none j but an insane man would commit such j a wanton series of wrong. Always Been a Coward Dr. Karpas testified that In addition ; to Waite's admission that he was a thief, cheat and murderer, without love \ for any one, that he always had been j a coward. Waite cared nothing about j sex, he told Dr. Karpas, expressing an- i noyance at the newspaper interpreta tion of his studio companionship with Mrs. Margaret Weaver Horton. Waite felt no emotion excepting that at sight of Mrs. Horton's picture be always cried. Mr*. Horton n Flower "Waite said he loved nature." con tinued Dr. Karpas, "and that Mrs. Hor- i ton was like a flower which must be watered, so he had poured his affec tions upon her." Waite was an egomaniac, he lacked all moral sense, he was selfish and j would do anything he thought would j benefit him. Dr. Karpas asserted. The speed with which the trial has j proceeded makes it probable that the ' case will go to the jury to-night a remarkable record for a murder trial 1 of such importance. If this is not | done, the case will be In the Jury's hand's by Monday, afternoon at the | latest. Dr. Karpas was preceded on the wit ness stand by Dr. Menus S. Gregrory, he-ad of the psyeolpathic wardi of Belle vue Hospital, who was called by the , defense to testify to having received Waite in the psycopathlc ward while lie was suffering from the effects of the drußs he took Just before his ar rest. Dr. Gregory is a prosecution's ex pert. In addition to the alienists. Miss Catharine A. Peck, aunt of Mrs. Waite, and Abraham Bassford, Jr.. testified. in the cross-examination to-day Waite told nothing which equalled tils sensational direct testimony in which he admitted two murders and an at- [ tempted murder. Waite, on cross-ex- I amination, declared he tried to kill I himself, denied that he was feigning j ; insanity or that he was Insane, and i said he could not remember if he ever contemplated killing his wife.

Sa'S&Tn SSfi&Wi Save Your Hair , j .With Is'.ewbro's Herpicide HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH FINISH SLOPING WALK AT MUENCH [Continued From First I'asi'.] tallied from this operation, the longest ol its kind along the water front. The cost li,.s been so reasonable, park de partment officials said to-day, that al least one more probably the ramp at Peffer street can be treated in the same way. In the construction of the walk and the rip-rapping of the slope at the foot of Muench street an unfortunate error was made in the grade, the whole stone structure projecting con siderably beyond the line of the slope. Too much material was used in the filling and instead of a stone or con crete gutter five feet wide at the bot tom of the slope, as in the plan ap proved by the State Water Suply Commission, the rip-rapping starts flush with the granolithic walk, pro ducing a hump on the slope. This may have to be corrected. >loro I'ark Funds in Sight Similar treatment would be possible for all of the walks if enough money were available. In councilmanic circles it was said to-day that an effort to obtain sufficient funds for the purpose may be made at the next session of Council by appropriating the balance of some $2,100 from the sum pro vided for the city audit, for the park department for necessary improve ments. If this money can thus lie switched, ample funds will be avail able for completing the slope walks, which are much needed. Hundreds of tons of earth have been dumped along the river bank between Relly and Harris streets at the points which were more seriously washed cut by the recent high water. The line of park is being speedily re established. Tn the Soldiers' Honor Park walks are being re-lined and edged and the grass is being trimmed throughout the River Front, the work being pushed as rapidly as possible in order that the city's recreation stretches may have on their nattiest clothes for the formal opening of the park season on Tuesday Memorial Day. The park corps is busy on the upper stretches now and as soon as th«. job is finished to Boas street, the gangs will be brought southward where the slopes and terraces from Market street southward requires at tention. To-day the boating season was formally opened on Wildwood Lake with Charles Beaver in charge. From now on boats can be readily had 011 Saturdays and Sundays and as the de mand increases the livery service will bo extended to week-days. In Wildwood Park The Wildwood road from the Maclay street entrance to the dam is in splen did condition and the curving bluff road north of the creek has been scraped and rolled. Within the next ten days, weather and whims of the laborer permitting, the newly-constructed parkway road from Derry street to Reservoir Park will be ready for use. The final link between the Park and the roadway is r.ow being connected. Bridges on the Dull and the Prospect hill tracts are I nearing completion. Mother Nature Helping Old Ma Nature is doing lier share incidentally in helping the parks to don Spring clothes. On the slopes of the great gully beyond the first turn of the Wlldwood Lake Ttoad, some 800 or a thousand snow white splrea plants are all a-bloom. On the island the flowers are blossoming and the peony beds, despite the tardiness of the season, are getting ready to con tribute their share of Harrlsburg's fragrant memorial to its soldier dead next Tuesday. Thousands of great red, white and J pink peonies as usual, will bp culled from the city beds and carried to the post rooms of the Grand Army for the decoration of the soldiers' graves. A. B. C.
