Kight to Elect to C, noose Trial Before
King's Bench in October Gives
Xevr Aspect to Case Failure
of Speedy Termination Vexes.
SHERBROOKE. Que.. Aug. 26.
Harry K. Tnaw's Canadian attorneys
late today withdrew the writ of habeas
corpus obtained last week in his be
half and the fugitive from Matteawan
will not be arraigned in the Superior
Court tomorrow morning as had been
expected. The withdrawal of the writ
may prolong the proceedings indefinite
ly.
Rumors had been bandied about all
' day that the writ might be withdrawn
but it was not until tonight that the
notice was filed with the clerk of the
court.
At the same time a telegram was
sent to Judge Arthur Globensky at
Montreal, who (fronted the writ, that
such was counsel's desire. He was due
here tomorrow to hear arguments on
the application.
-Vext Store I p te Jerome.
The next move in the Thaw case is
now distinctly up to those desiring his
deportation. Lnder the present com
mitment he might remain in the Sher
brooke jail indefinitely, electing to have
a hearing before a district magistrate.
or demanding a Jury trial before the
King's bench, criminal side, which does
not sit until October. Briefly Thaw's
lawyers have decided to let him pace
his ce'l, meanwhile perfecting plans to
defeat attempts' to put him across the
Canadian border.
"It is beyond me." said William
Travers Jerome. "The line points of
Canadian law involved are such that 1
would not feel Justified In even guess
ing at the outcome. We hope to get
mm in the end, but this aangle must
be straightened out nrst.
District Attorney Conger, of Dutchess
County, New York, was equally puzzled
and reticent. "If Mr. Jerome can't
solve the muddle, certainly I can't,'
he said.
Com Farther Complicated.
Further to complicate -matters coun
sel representing the State of New York
are not sure that the commitment
under which Thaw has chosen to re
main in jail contains a charge of violat
ing any of the Dominion's laws. It Is
that of being a "fugitive from the Mat.
teawan penitentiary, where he was
confined on a criminal charge for life.
Hector Verret, K. C, representing
New York State, said tonight that he
regarded the withdrawal of the writ on
Thaw's behalf as tacit admission by his
attorneys that the commitment was
- legal and did contain one charge on
which Thaw could be brought Into
court.
"We might get out another commit
ment charging him with other offense,"
he added. "We could bring him Into
court on that, surely. There would still,
remain, hower. Thaw'r right to
choose trial 'before the King's bench
in October."
Hope of Speedy Kmd Goes,
Mr. Jerome and District Attorney
Conger were at dinner when Thaw's
counsel made known their decision.
They had been hoping, like others
drawn hither by duty, that tomorrow
would see a sweeping away of some
of the legal cobwebs and the begin
ning of a fight in the open, prefacing a
hearing before the immigration
authorities and Thaws probable de
portation to Vermont.
The news spread quickly through the
hotel corridors. Sheriff Hornbeck, of
Dutchess County, who Is particularly
anxious to get home, expressed his
great disgust. The handcuffs and leg
irons he brought with him have proved
only a burden and he has been roaming
about town for a week waiting for
something to turn up.
Thaw's lawyers, headed by J. N.
Greenshields. K. C. of Montreal, were
grimly jubilant. They had conferred
all afternoon before reaching a de
riston and were mightily pleased at
the apparent enigma they have created
for the opposition. Thaw himself
could not be seen, due to a new rule
of tlie Sheriff, barring interviewers
rxrept when accompanied by some one
nr his counsel; but that he was con
suited before any action was taken
was attested by the fact that his sig
nature, with that of his attorney of
record. W. L. Shurtleff, was signed to
the application.
Thaw's Efforts Curtailed.
It was a mere formality with Thaw,
though, for the greater part of his day
he spent in working out more details
or ms puDiicity campaign. His ambi
tions may be nipped to some extent
by the curtailment of Interviewers, but
ne can siui send out statements.
Though declining to express an
opinion as to what will happen in the
Thaw case next. Mr. Jerome took the
hitch in the proceedings philosophi
cally. He was asked if he had any
thing of particular interest to say to
Americans with reference to the Thaw
case, now that he was on the ground
and. had learned something of the
Canadian attitude toward White's
slayer.
"No, but I have something I'd like
to say to the people of Canada," he ex
claimed. "They seem to regard this
man as a martyr. No one is persecut
ing him; no one wants him. New York
state is trying to get Thaw back, not
because New York wants Thaw, but be
cause of the bad effect his freedom
would have upon the people. If Thaw
were allowed to remain free, everyone
would, say 'Ha. the Thaw millions freed
him.' People are saying the Thaw mil
lions got him out of Matteawan and
generally we hear the remark: "A rich
man can do anything, but what chance
has a poor man got.'
"Thaw, if allowed to go free wouM
have a demoralizing effect on the whole
country. Free he would be a menace.
That Is why New York state wants
Thaw.
Thaw Said to Be Menace.
"I have with me documents which
show that he is one of two things
ei;her an insane man. and if so un
desirable, or a sane man of a type even
more undesirable.
"What does New York States want
with such a man? Canada might keep
him and welcome, were it for the fact
that It is New York's duty to get him
back. The doors of Matteawan would
have been thrown open to Thaw long
since, had New York the ethical right
to do that. There would have been no
pursuit of him. But he must be taken
back."
Questions of treaty violations and
future contingencies suggested should
Thaw be deported, faded Into the back
ground when the news went abroad
that tomorrow's court hearing was off.

COURTROOM KEPT CLEAR
Cincinnati's new hospital will hav eoort
tnc nooks for the benefit of spoony narsoa.
Two bright-eyed, rosy-cheeked girls
who said they wouldn't give their
names until they reached the box office
at 9 o'clock this morning,, where they
would register for their season tickets,
headed the lengthy list of Baker Thea
ter patrons who lined up for seats last
night at 6 o'clock. Fully 100 waiting
people stood in line, or sat on the
benches provided by Manager Baker.
When dusk arrived Mr. Baker threw
open the doors of the cosy theater and
the waiting patrons took seats accord
ing to their places in the line.
Many brought basket lunches a
great many sent out for food, particu
larly coffee, and still a greater number
worked the game in shifts. One cheery,
pleasant-faced woman entertained the
waiting folk in her vicinity with stories
of other seasons and the "waits" for
tickets. "I really ought to have some
sort of a medal," she told Manager
Baker. "I've gone to every bill you've
ever presented, every season you ve
had a company.
Early-Day Play Recalled.
"The first time was to see Rlph
Stuart open In 'By Right of Sword."
way back in the early days when .-the
stock company was at the old Baker
on Third street. And by a coincidence
I see that Ralph Stuart's youngest son,
Kenneth Stuart, is to be stage man
ager for Mr. Baker this season.
"The next season I waited in line to
buy season tickets for the Cathrine
Countiss. Charles Wyngate engage
ment. From that time on I've sat in
front of the theater every blessed time
the line has formed for the sale of
season seats."
Which information soon started a
discussion of events, players and plays
of early days in the Baker organiza
tions, and naturally led up to a sug
gestion from one of the old faithfuls
in waiting that a. society of veteran
show-shoppers be organized. By one
accord they united in praising Manager
Baker's policy in securing all new
stars. "Only I'm glad he didn't leave
Mary Edgett-Baker out." said one wo
man. Miss Edgett has this season
added the Baker name to her cognomen.

Opening Offering Awaited.

BAD POTATOES BORNEO
spector Rhodes says he found the pota

moths, and that he took 10a . Infected
potatoes from one sack.
Mr. Rhodes, backed by J. H. Perkins.
Commissioner of Agriculture at Oiym-
pla. some time ago sent a circular to
California shippers announcing that
hereafter all potatoes shipped into the
state and found to be infected would
be burned.
"This moth." said Mr. Rhodes, "is the
most dangerous pest known. A few
years ago It destroyed nearly the en
tire crop of Australia, Tasmania, New
Zealand. India, China. South Africa and
Jamaica, and is now a grave menace
to California."

Wife or Murdered Man Tells Pa
thetic Story of Effort to Shield
Husband From Danger.
How husband and wife competed to
protect each other from a drink-mad

story tolT in Municipal Court yesterday
by Mrs. Charles A. Broddle, whose hus
band was shot and killed last week In
scowtown, by reter Moeller.
"I saw him draw the weapon," she
said, with a breaking voice, and I
rushed forward to get between him and
my husband. My husband saw the dan
ger and tried to get in front of me.
but I managed to nold him off. Then
this man shot around my shoulder and
my husband said. 'I'm hit.' "
The witness was deeply affected bv
the recalling of the tragedy, and Dep
uty District Attorney Ryan protested
feelingly against a long and apparently
purposeless cross-exa-minatlon.
A contention for the job of defending
the accused was the first matter be
fore the court. W. H. Bard said he had
been employed by the Norwegian con
sul an4 had worked up the prelimi
naries of the case. Attorney Goldstein
acting for the firm of Joseph A Haney,
said friends of the accused had sum
moned him. Moeller was permitted to
choose, and Indicated Bard as the man
ne wanted to handle his case. He said
his father was on the way from Norway
to assist tne aeiense.
No testimony was submitted by the
aeienaant ana ne was bound over with

Defendant Faces Four Charges but
Is Not Accused of Buying Tickets
to Take Sacramento Girls
to Reno, Ner.
SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 26. Six men
have been chosen to sit on the Jury
that will try F. Drew Camlnettl on the
Indictment charging hftn with violating
the Msnn white-slave act. When the
first day of the trial was 'over, this
was the sum of the work done. Counsel
believes that the Jury that will hear
the case will be empaneled by to
morrow. Three of these Jurors are men who
were rejected from the box as unquali
fied to sit for various reasons, when
th'e talesmen were being examined dur
ing the trial of Maury I.' Diggs, friend
and. companion of Camlnettl, who was
convicted last Wednesday In the same
court on a similar charge. Four of them
are men of wealth, one being Francis J
Carolan, society leader of Burllngame
and Newport, polo player and million
aire. Of the six, five are older than
the defendant, who Is 26. and one,
Charles O. Clausen, younger. All but
Clausen are men of families.
Under the regular rule of the court,
temporarily susponded in the trial ot
Dlgs, but put into effect again today,
peremptory challenges must be exer
cised following the examination of each
Juror. The defense has already used
five of its ten peremptorles and the
Government attorneys have used four
of the six allowed them.
Camlnettl Is being tried under four
counts of an indictment which cnarges
that he transported Marsha Warrington
and Lola Norrls, Sacramento girls, to
Reno, Nev on March 10. for Immoral
purposes, after having persuaded and
Induced them to go. No accusation Is
mad a, in the case of Diggs, his com
panion on the trip, that he bought the
tickets. In statements Issued Caminetti
has said that he will take the stand
in his own defense, but will not con
tradlct the main story that is to be
told by Miss Norrls as she told it in
the Diggs trial.
The crowds of spectators that were
In attendance during the trial of Diggs
were absent from the Postofflce build
ing today. Only prospective Jurors
filled the courtroom.

MEXICO CITY. Aug. 26. President
Wilson's personal representative, John
Lind, and Frederico Gamboa. the Mexi
can Minister of Foreign Affairs, are
again exchanging notes on the subject
of relations between the respective
governments, notwithstanding that Mr.
Lind already has left the capital and
that President Wilson's other agent.
William Bayard Hale, has planned to
leave tomorrow.
Senor Gamboa's note, which he says
Is in reply to one he received from the
Amerloan envoy, was sent to Mr. Lind
at Vera Cruz tonight. The Mexican
Foreign Minister is reticent as to the
character of the exchanges, but unof
ficially It is said they will not alter
the situation.
The government understands that
Mr. Lind will leave Vera Cruz for the
United States Thursday. Mr. Hale's
instructions are to leave here tomor
row and sail on Thursday.
That Mr. Lind left the capital per
haps a day or two before Washington
expected, him to is indicated by the ar
rival here of W. W. Canada. Consul at
Vera Cruz, on orders from the State
Department to meet and accompany
Mr. Lind to Vera Cruz. The envoy had
already left, flowever, when the Consul
reached Mexico City.
Mr. Lind made the trip to Vera Cruz
in an ordinary day coach in the ab
sence of the train with a private car
which had been proffered by President
Huerta. Senor Gamboa was told that
the officials at Washington appeared
to believe that Mr. Lind's return to the
Mexican capital was not improbable.
"Mr. Lind will be entirely welcome
in Mexico should he wish to return,
replied the minister.
Though somewhat reassured by the
press dispatches from Washington in
dtcating that the Administration is still
strongly opposed to Intervention, there
still Is intense anxiety on the part of
the foreign residents as well as Mexi
cans. Trains for Vera Cruz today
carried away many Americans and
many more have planned to go tomorrow.
The following statement was issued
at tne Foreign Office tonight:
'In order to calm the natural anxiety
or the public occasioned by the nego
tiations -which have been carried on
with Mr. Lind. the confidential agent
or President w lison, feenor Gamboa d
Clares that up to the present there is
no reason for alarm.
"Since the beginning he has tried to
maintain a conciliatory attitude, al
though at the same time a dignified
one, and If the President of the United
States considers it opportune to submit
to Congress the status of the negotia
tions, then Mexico is relieved from the
tacit agreement and from the customs
observed in negotiations of this class
not to give premature publicity and
will hasten then, and only then, to
make public in their entirety ail the
documents which have been received
or which may be received at that date."

Filipinos More Advanced Than

McLoughlin, Surgeon Pub
lic Health Service.
BUFFALO. X. Aug. 26. Practical
and applied hygrlene la much further
advanced In the Philippines than In
the United States, according to Dr.
Allen J. McLaughlin, surgeon of the
L'nlted States public health service,
who was one of the speakers at to
day's sessions of the fourth interna
tional congress on school hygiene.
"In this country, said Dr. McLaugh
lin, we are prone to overlook the
enormous Influence of school children
upon the hygiene of the home. The
children of poor. Ill-educated parents
are often the Intermediary through
which the simple gospel of hygiene and
disease prevention reaches the parents.
In the Philippines. In many instances,
it is only because ot the children that
the parents carry out the Instructions
of the health officer.
"With an epidemic of contagious dis
ease existing, there is a tendency In
most communities to close the schools.
In th Philippines,. on the contrary. It
is the policy of the bureau to keep
schools open because of thetr extraor
dinary value In teaching the precepts
of disease prevention.
"Open air schools and open school
rooms were the general topics of the
day, and it was practically the unanl
nous opinion of the delegates that chil
dren in rooms with windows wide open.
even during the Winter months, are
immeasurably more healthful and make
more rapid progress in their studies
than under other conditions."

WONDERFUL HOW
RESINOL CURED
ITCHING HUMOR
New York. N. Y, May 19. 1915: "I
was taken with a terrible Itching and
burning In my hands. They would
crack and bleed. I could not do my
work. I had to walk the floors at
"night. I tried and . but no
relief, until I used Resinol Soap and
Reslnol Ointment then I could go to
sleep. The Resinol treatment Is some
thing wonderful, for if you could see
my hands, you would never think that
fhey were ever sore they are so nice
and soft, and I ran do all my wor
now." (Signed) Mrs. Wm. Sutherland
