Slayer of Stanford White Is
Not to Have Special Privi

WILL BE TREATED KINDLY
Superintendent Says He Hoe Not

Thaws and Would Hare
Further Elucidation.
MATTEAWAN, N. T.. Aug. IS. Harry
K. Thaw ate his supper tonight at the
Matteawan State Hospital for the Crimi
nal Insane. Tomorrow the slayer of
Stanford White will resume the monoto
nous routine of the asylum life.
Superintendent Lamb, of the asylum,
issued the following; statement tonight:
There will be no change at all regard
ing Thaw'a Incarceration here. He will
be subjected to the same rules as before
he left to go to White Plains. He will
have a special room, not because he Is
Harry Thaw, but for the reason that this
hospital wa buljf to accommodate BOO
patients, and we now have nearly S00.
We are very crowded and some of the
patients have small rooms which were
built for the attendants. Thaw has one
of these.
T did not take It from Justice Mills
jnn4nn Um Thav wn fa have anT spe
cial privileges. We will follow the or- ,
d;rs. however, ana lr innw is ui na
fied he can appeal to me courts. j
present we will adhere to the old ro
tine.
"If Thaw should appeal for special
privileges, then both sides would have
a chance to be heard. The Judge Is
away, and until he returns we will treat
Thaw Just as we did before he left for
White Plains.
"I have not decided when he Is to re
tire at night, but he will be given ample
consideration In any request ,he may
make.'
I
the selection of the nominees ror ,u-
norvisors by the Republican party. I
which split on the graft prosecution
question. From the last figure obtain
able tonight It looks as though the
Crocker ticket would have a decided
majority over the Mauiy men, the pro
portion being about 11 to 7.
Crocker's Plurality Small.
In "the Mayoralty fight. Crocker se
cured a majority over Byron Mauzy of
698. his majority having been largely cut
down by the time the last vote was In.
Crocker's total was 8761, and that
Mauzy 8130. The small majority is
charged up to the fact that Countryman
cut heavily into the vote of Crocker and
that the Union Labor men who registered
as Republicans were instructed to vote
for Mauzy as being a weaker candidate
for P. H. McCarthy to fight.
Dr. Leland took the Democratic nom
ination over Supervisor McLeran by 1S3,
and McCarthy's majority on the Union
Labor ticket was 8446. j
Prosecutors Claim lctory.
The graft prosecution is claiming a
great victory for Heney, because he se
cured the Democratic nomination and
says that he will win out in the coming
political battle. Astute Judges of politics,
however, iigure that theAsslstant District
Attorney had a hard row to hoe.
As between the Mayoralty candidates,
Crocker is looked upon as a favorite,
although It 'is believed that McCarthy will
make a hard fight and that trie Union
Labor vote will be worth considering,
even though the Schmitz exposures were
of such recent date. Leland and Crocker
are more than likely to draw from each
other and McCarthy might skip In be
tween. t i

MRS. THAW WAITS FOR APPEAL
Harry' Mother Issues Statement on
Son's Reincarceration
WHITE PLAIN'S. N. Y., Aug. 18. Mrs.
Mary Copley TOaw gave out the follow
ing statement today:
"The only request made for my son
was that he be transferred to the
liloomington asylum, although, as a
sane acquitted man, he should have been
liberated.
"There was no suggestion of bonds
or of any other fantastio features men
tioned. It was simply the argument
that an acquitted man ought not to be
placed in a criminal institution.
"The thought waa suggested that the
Judge" would surely order this change If
a personal appeal was made to him.
Gladly my daughter offered to.
Efforts of Xo Avail.
"Twice she communicated with us here,
the last message telling how fruitless the
hard Journey had been. Bhe cannot be
back before her brother leaves for Mat
teawan this afternoon.
"He goes with courage tfhdannted by
this outrageous decision and we will all
look forward confidently to the action
of the Court of Appeals. It cannot be
that this illegal restraint of an acquitted
man, known by everybody to be abso
lutely sane, can last much longer, no
matter how vindictive those who would
attempt to default Justice may be.
"Allow me to correct some gross mis
takes regarding this brave devoted sister
and daughter. Alice Thaw made no
stipulation, ror did the family of the
Marquis of Hertford, at the time of her
marriage, such as are published in some
of the morning papers. On the con
trary, her entire estate remained In this
country, absolutely under her own con
trol. Xo Trouble Abroad.
"The Hertford family 'always paid her
the utmost respect for good and suffi
cient reasons, aside from her own per
sonality. When she annulled her mar
riage, a year and a half ago. she had a
perfect right under the English laws to
hold the title. She was urged to do so
h- her friends and her legal advisers, but
she preferred to be rid of it altogether.
"She had a host of warm friends In
England, and her own quiet home of St.
Jamea Park, like my own, has been kept
open all these months hoping always, for
Justice."

a rural prison and in the custody of a
Town Marshal Wwhom they had been ln-4

from the opening, owing at that time to
the effort of the shorts to cover as well

became a -sharp one, when Minneapolis
advices indicated a shortage of 25,000,000
bushels in the North Dakota wheat fields,
owing to the excessive heat.
The result was September wheat showed
an advance of nearly 3 cents shortly be

SEATTLE, Aug. 18. (Special.) That
President Taft will not idle his time
away on the golf links, but must en
dure the gaze of the proletariat, was
the decision of a rather stormy meet
ing held today by the exposition offi
cials, including President Chilberg,
Vice-President McGrajr and Josiah Col
lins, chairman of the ceremonies com
mittee, who drew up the programme
that has aroused a storm of protest
from exposition people and local citi
zens. Mr. Collins returned to the city
today and made the statement that the
programme for Mr. Taft's visit as pre
pared by him was strictly in accord
with the President's own wishes.
''When I saw Mr. Taft lit Cincinnati
he expressed his willingness to give us
one day at the exposition, but at that
time and since then by wire he has ex
pressed a desire to spend the second day
at Seattle In rest and recuperation.
Because Mrj Taft is a lover of golf, the
outing at the Country Club was
planned. I believe the people of the
Northwest will have ample time and
chance to see and hear the President
In one" day, as he desires."
Other exposition officials maintain
their attitude of Insisting that Mr.
Taft's visit be made more of a public
affair, and that he spend his time at
the fair and in meeting and speaking
to the people of the Northwest.
