New York. Adjudged not guilty of the murder of Stanford White by reason of insanity at the time the fatal shots were fired, Harry Kendall Thaw today was held by the court to be a dangerous lunatic, and was whirled away to the state hospital for the criminal insane at Matteawan. It was a quick transition from tha dingy little cell In the' Tombs, which hag been the young man's home for more than eighteen months, to 'the white bedded wards of the big asylum tucked away on the snow covered. slop lng banks of the Hudson, fifty miles above the city. The verdict came after iwemy-uve nouis ol wmung every one connected with the case had abandoned all hope of an agreement.

The first thrill of the words of acquittal brought Thaw to his feet In the court room and with the lack of grace of action which always had character-, Ized his movements, he awkwardly almost haughtily, bowed his acknowledgements to the twelve Jurymen as they were discharged by the court. A smile played about his pallid features and there was every reason to believe that he was entirely pleased with the outcome.

In the tornado ione today, the dead numbered eight, the fatally injured four and at least 100 other persons were bandaged or limping from the blows of debris which the wind hurled against them. There ar fears that the death list may reuch fifteen or twenty, most of those believed to be dead being negroes, who have not been accounted for since their frail cabins wore crushed fiat, or ripped apart, and scattered over a wide space when the tornado struck. The damage Is es timated conservatively at $300,000, and may reach $500,000.

King Carlos of Portugal and the crown prince, LuU Phllllpe, were assassinated today, an. I the city Is in a state of-uproar. Tho king's second eon, the Infant Manuel, was slightly wounded, but Queen Amelia, who strove save the cr6wr prnce's life by throwing herself upon htm, was unhurt. A band of men waiting at the cori ner of the Praco do Commerclo an4 the Uua do Arsenal suddenly sprang toward the open carriage In which the royal family were driving to the palace, and leveling carbines which hey had concealed upon them, fired. The klnir and the crown prince, upon whom the attack was directed, wera each shot three times, ancr" they lived only lung enufn oe iu mw marine arsenal nearby, where they ex pired.

Almost at the first shot the klngr at the same moment, the crown prince was seen to half rise and then sink back on the seat. Jumped up and threw herself toward the crown prince In an apparent effort to save his life. at the cost of her own, but the prince already had received his death wound. The police guard fired on the assassins and killed three of them. The royal family wore returning; from Villa Vlcosa, where they had been sojourning, and were on their way from the rallrond station to the palace.

A strong guard was In attendance because of the recent uprising In the city and the discovery of a plot to assassinate Franco, and overthrow the monarchy. But the bund of murderers had se lected the most advantageous spot for the commission of their crime, for they were concealed from the eyes of the police until the carriage had wheeled Into the Praco do Commerclo, a large square. ASSASSINS' DEADLY WORK. Before any of the guardB were a ware of what was happening, the as sassins leaped to me carriage ana instantly a fusillade of shots rang out. In a moment all was terrible confusion, the king and crown prince being shot down without the slightest chance to save themselves.

GuardH sprang the. regicides number of whom Is somewhat uncertain and killed two of them, and captured three others. One of these committed suicide, after being placed in prison. It is charged that one of the murder ers was a Spaniard named Cordova. The bodies of the king and the crowO prince were removed from the marine arsenal in low closed carriages to tho royal palace, the Praco das Neceiwi- dad cis, the late residence of the and escorted by municipal guards: mounted.

PEOPLE PANIC STRICKEN. The news of the assassination swepi through the city like fire through dry grass, and tonight half the populace is panic stricken, not knowing where the next blow may fall. There is the greatest dread for the future of the country, which seems on the verge of being plunged Into the throes of a revolution with all the attendant horrors and bloodshed. Throughout the city consternation reigns and all th? houses and business places are barricaded. An examination of the wounds of the king, who was already dead when ho reached the arsenal, showed that three bullets had found their mark.

One wound was situated at the nape of the) neck, a second in the shoulder and the third, which was the fatal wound, severed the carotid artery. The crown prince, who was still breathing, but who died almost immediately after ad mission ct the arsenal, had suffered three wounds in the head and chest. Two bullets had struck Prince Manuel, nr nr tVio JovCr 3-13 OthCf iT the arm. Queen Maria Pia, the mother of Klnc Carlos, the Duke of Operto, his brother, a number of ministers and court of ficials, hastened at once to the arsenal when the news reached then of the attack upon the royal family.

The cold blooded murder has sent thrill of horror throughout the country, even among those who have been working politically for the establishment, eventually, of a republic, at sorrow is expressed on every hand vat the dreadful end of the king anil tho crown prince.
