Hist rlct Attor ney Dnrrln Is evidently uneasy over the announcement that Insanity will be the defense of Captain Peter C. Halna and T. Jenkins llalns for the murder of William K.

"Hut one thing is certain the trial of the Halnx brothers will not be a repetition of the Thaw ease. "I don't think a Brooklyn "Jury will stand for a brainstorm defense, and the case Is ho plain against those two men who committed a cold-blnnded and cow ardly murder that there will be no ne cessity for u long-drawn-out trial or the expenditure of large sums of money." The Mains brothers were solemn and uncommunicative today ufter the coro ner's inipiest last lilght, when they were held without ball and the crowd cheered the verdict. Darrln says lie fears that reallnatlon of his position may Incline I'aptaln iiama in attempt suicide, nut ne doe. not believe lie is Insane. Iir. Piatt, the Jail physician, .aid to day that neither of the brother, shows hii sign of insanity, i'latt said that following an Interview with his counsel yusterday Captain Mains collapsed allowing that he appreciated his circum stances, which, the doctor say., argue. against insanity. Friends of Mrs. Annls today admitted that there Is another man in live. ease The Identity of this man Is said to be known to a doien of those i-onnocted wUh the scandal, and It Is said that he Is high In Insurance circles In New York. It ia reported by Annls' friends thai this nmn convinced I'aptaln Mains that he was Innocent and shifted the manic upon Annls. i mi novice or counsel.
