Harvard Professor Declares Man Was Hypno
tized and Then Hanged For Crime He
Never Committed.
SIX ITALIANS SLAIN
, IN BLOODY MASSACRE
ON CHRISTMAS NIGHT
Murdered in House
Mafia-Society Is
Suspected.
New York. Dec. 26.—Professor Hugo
Mun-sterberg, of Harvard University,
the famous psychologist, today star
tled the police departments of every
large city In the country by the publi
cation, after an exhaustive investiga
tion, of the statement that the great
state of Illinois had hanged a man In
Chicago for a murder of which he was
absolutely innocent. The terrible
“third degree,” declares Professor Mun-
sterberg, was responsible for the pro
duction of a hypnotic state In tho mlifd
of Richard Ivins, who confessed to
the killing of Mrs. Frank C. Hollister,
a woman he had never seen.
Professor Munsterberg's remarkable
assertion, with all his proofs, as print
ed In The Times Magaslne, Is as fol
lows:
ly PROF. HUGO MUN8TERBERG.
On January 12, 1906, a young mar
ried woman waa brutally murdered In
Chicago. Her body was found by the
unfortunate defendant lying face down,
ward In n barn yard. The barn was
about half a block distant from Id*
home. He had to go there to attend to
his father's horses. When he observed
the body, he at once reported the mat
ter to his father at the house and the
father notified the police. The officers
who Inspected the premises found the
woman's hat at her feet, but could dis
cover no evidence whatsoever of a
scuffle having taken place. Purse,
shopping bag, and muff were gone.
Around her neck was a hard-drawn
copper wire, the ends being twisted to
gether.
The young man looked os If he had
not slept during the night, und the of
ficers suspected him. The testimony
showed that, he was everywhere re
garded as thoughtful, obliging and of
exceptionally good disposition, but oft
en exhibiting marked stupidity. He
never sought the company of women.
All of his friends thought him decided,
ly trusting and credulous and absent-
minded.
The police began to press him and
more and more Impressively to suggest
to him his guilt. Suddenly he began
to confess, and he was quite willing to
repeat his confession again and ngnin.
Every time It became richer In de
tail.
On this basis he was condemned to
death. So the matter stood when my
opinion was asked for, as above report-'
ed. 1 could npt help becoming con
vinced that all the external signs spoke
against the Interpretation of the Jury.
The young man’s alibi proof, brought
forw ard by his friends, seemed to point
to the fact that the woman was mur
dered by an unknown person at anoth
er place, and that her body was drag-

Tfie so-called "confessloni” them
selves seemed absurd and contradicto
ry. and exactly like the Involuntary
elaboration of a suggestion put Into hi*
mind. His whole life history and ex
pression of hfa face were In fullest ac
cordance with the suspicion that tits
mind was In a state of dlsaaaoclatlon
when he began his confessions.
It seemed to me a typical case of that
large borderland region In which a
neurotic mind develops an Illusory
memory as to Its own doings in the
past. After most careful scrutiny, as
far as the printed material allowed, I
wrote thus In June In my much abused
letter that the confessions must be un
true and that the condemned man had
really nothing to do with the crime. I
added at once, ’it is nn Interesting case
of disassorlation and nuto-suggestlnn;
it would need careful treatment to build
up his dleRKsoelmed mind again and

to death and there Is no doubt that the

have been committed.
Not since the lynching of Italians by
the wholesale, several years ugo, has the
such a high btate of excitement.
Following the discovery of the mur
