COMMITMENT IS DEFECTIVE
Stanford White's Slayer Is Erratic,
Loquacious, Domineering
jers, Under Promise of .Qreat
Fee. Have No Writing.
BHEHBROOKB, Que., Aug". i3. Har
ry K. Thaw, squabbling with the Do
minion's leading lawyers, retained to
prevent his return to Matteawan. State
Hospital -for-the Criminal Insane, from
which he escaped on Sunday morning
last, was tonight apparently as much
in .ignorance of the. next move in his
case as the casual idler around the
Sherbrooke Jail.
For two hours his counsel conferred
this afternoon, debating whether they
-would-produce Thaw in court on a writ
of habeas corpus next Wednesday or
abandon-the writ, surrender him to the
immigration authorities and counte
nance his deportation to Vermont, a
procedure to which It was said here
.the immigration officers had agreed.
Thaw was loquacious, . erratic, dom
neering and It was decided to wait the
: arrival here of Rojer O'Mara, of Pitts-
burg. Thaw'e-i-detscti've-guardian. Ac-
cording' to the lndeTStsmdlng here, he
will arrive tomorrow night by way of
Montreal.
Never in the history of the Province
of Quebec or the Dominion of Canada,
for that matter, has such a legal snarl
within a snarl, case within a case, been
before the courts.
In brief. Thaw is held on a commit
ment charging him with being a fugi
tive from Matteawan, where "he was
confined - on. a criminal charge." This
la an - error. Acquitted - of Stanford
White's murder on the ground of insan
ity, he was -held there on no charge, , but
as a lunatic
- Both sides have admitted that the
commitment is defective and it was
conceded that he would be released on
the writ when arraigned. Why not,
then. Thaw's lawyers were asked by
the immigration authorities, cancel, as
it were, all your objections to his
being held, turn hira over to us, have
a hearing at Coatlcook, where he was
first locked up after crossing the boun
dary,: and we will, deport him to Ver
mont? It will then be up to New Tork
State to extradite him.
Minister t Interior Haa Say.
But the agents of the Immigration
authorities here are subordinates, and
ThaWa lawyers believe the final deci
sion in the 'matter of deportation will
come from the Minister of the Interior,
who is at present in Vancouver on his
vacation. Facing such a predicament,
it was said tonight, that the habeas
corpus hearing would be held on Wed
nesday as previously set.
Another possibility was suggested.
Thaw would come into court, plead not
guilty to the present charge and demand-trial.
This, it was said, might
not take place until the October term
of court.
"How about ltr Thaw was asked. :
"Wait for Roger," he said.
O'Mara was thus literally the miss
ing keystone In the Thaw forces to
night, and William T. Jerome, Thaw's
old enemy and prosecutor, was the
missing general of the New Tork
forces.
Thew did not appear particularly
disturbed when, told Jerome was hur
rying here.
"So Willie's coming." he said. "For
once in. my life I have lawyers who
have -no tremendous amount of ability,
but I am able to confer with them. I
have never-had a lawyer except Del
mas, and maybe a couple of others,
who were worth over $25 a day.
Tbaw W rum Confident.
"A clique of Stanford White's friends
have always pursued, and they have
pursued me up here. But their influ
ence is waning. Public opinion in New
Tork and elsewhere is steadily grow
Ing more favorable to me. Canadians
are learning th& New Tork is trying
to treat Canada as a little principality.
But after ail I think it was wiser to
have, come to Canada.. Instead of en
tering .Pennsylvania.
"Well, I hope . Jerome has a good
time hare. I have a lot of things on
Jerome. I was going to spring them
at White Plains 1 nl$08. but decided
not to.- I'll -spring them some time,
though." " .
As he rambled -on. Thaw had a
stenographer taking down what he
- said.. He declined to say a word about
Evelyn Nesblt or the child she says is
bis. . - -." -' - :
The Inside" story of. how Thaw's
Canadian - lawyers; were ' retained has
cropped "bp "in " Sherbrooke. When
Thaw arrest vu -first flashed to New
York "City. a. New Tork theatrical man
who had met Margaret Thaw Carnegie
abroad called up the Caraegies and
Mrs. Mary Copley Thaw, then In New
Tork. and told them Thaw's position
was jerllous. The ' advisor explained
that his home town was Sherbrooke
and that he knew Just what lawyers
to engage. It waa on his advice, it
is said, that those now on the Thaw
payroll were retained by telegraph and
telephone.
He accompanied the Carnegies here
and is said to have promised the law
yers staggering fees 150.000 to be dis
tributed among five of them as a re
tainer. But he had nothing in writing
to confirm this, and the lawyers to
night had no assurance from the fam
ily of what they were to receive. They
were -clinging to the case as being ad
mittedly the most famous the Domin
ion has ever had.
Thaw tried to explain some of the
recent history of Matteawan. Dr.' Kieb
would not be the superintendent now,
- he said, if it had not been for the Thaw
family.
"If it hadnt .been for me." he said.
"Kieb wouldn't be in charge. We goj
queer."

(Special.) A mining camp of unusual

of the Bohemia district by Charles T.
Wiedman, of Los Angeles, who has
spent most of his 60 years in Western
camps, extending all the way from
Alaska to Mexico. Nowhere has Mr.
Wiedman seen formations of thts char
acter with greater prospects.
,."M;ners in this district have hardly
got below the grass roots as yet, while
in ail other camps of this character the
wealth has been secured at greater
depths." said Mr. Wiedman. "If this
does not. prove to be the case in Bo
hemia, !' will be because it ia in Ore
gon and everything in Oregon ia dif
ferent from anything in any other part
of tne country."
Mr. Wiedman is enthusiastic over the
district, which he looked over In com

The President is determined, how
ever, that his programme shall be
adopted. To minimize the opposition
as much as possible, it is his purpose
in connection with the currency bill
to make substantial concessions in the
Senate. Of course, for the President to
go too far would increase the hostility
of the reactionaries, but there is hope
that the latter can be satisfied in some
fashion and that In the end Congress

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 2J- In reply
to a recent order of the State Railroad
Commission slicing every express rate
in California of- Wells, Fargo Co.
and severely criticising the relation
ship between the express company and
the Southern Pacific Railroad, the
Southern Pacific filed today with the
commission a petition for a rehearing.
Already Wells. Fargo A Co. has filed
its own answer, and the railroad asks
permission to make common cause with
the expresa company. "
"It Is respectfully represented," re
cites . the petition, "that, the Southern
Pacific is not a principal stockholder
of Wells, Fargo A Co.. but that to the
contrary your petitioner does not own
any stock in said express company."
What the Railroad Commission said
follows:
"We would say . . . that there is
a relationship existing between the of
ficials and stockholders of some of
these railroads and this express, com
pany, through stock ownership and
control by the same officials and stock
holders of the two companies alike,
which at least makes It possible for
the railroads to be exploited for the
benefit of the express company."
The commission took the position
that the express company was a para
site on the railroad and by milking it
forced the railroad to milk the public
In reply the petition states that the
Southern Pacific will not receive ade
quate compensation for hauling busi
ness offered to it by Wells, Fargo A
Co., under the rates fixed by the com
mission, which, "being very little higher
than freight rates," will lessen the
company's freight business. Increase
its express business and "will delay the
passenger train service upon which the
express business is carried." '

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13. Rapid pro
gress on the tariff bill was made to
day In the Senate. Wool schedule was
disposed of so far as It will be con
sidered by the Senate In committee of
the whole, and a deep inroad was made
to the free list.
Though no vote was taken on free
raw wool, the decisive showing on that
having been deferred until the bill
comes from the commtttee , of the
whole, the finance committee rates on
wool manufactures were agreed to
without amendment and there was
every Indication that raw wool would
remain free. The Penrose. LaFollette,
Smoot and Catron substitutes for the
schedule will come up when the bill
appears in the Senate proper.
Final Vote Drawing 'ear.
With only a part of the free list, a
portion of the paper schedule and the
sundries, schedule remaining to be con
sidered in committee. Democratic lead
ers expressed confidence that the In
come tax would be disposed of before
the end of the coming week. It is their
hope to have the bill ready for the final
vote in the Senate within two weeks.
Among the articles on -the free list
ratified today were agricultural im
plements, beet and sugar cane, ma
chinery, alcohol, horses and mules and
animals for breeding, asbestos, beuxtte.
bibles, breads, biscuits and many oth
ers.
An inspection system for foreign
meat imports more rigid than that in
the tariff was proposed in an amend
ment Introduced and urged by Senator
Cummins and the free meat section
went over without action. The pend
ing bill provides for the acceptance of
certificates of inspection from export
ing countries.
Prior Inspection Sought,
Senator Cummins' amendment would
demand an .ante-mortem examination
of meats in the countries of exporta
tion and would authorise American In
spectors to re-inspect the meat after It
enters the United States
"There can be no reason why we
should permit the foreigner to supply
us with diseased meat, and deny the
prlvelege to our own packers." said
Senator Cummins.
The present bill, he declared, would
give Americans no protection against
beef of diseased cattle from countries
that had no system of ante-mortem in.
spection. He demanded an inspection
system on all meats imported as rigid
as our own.
"Does the Senator want to'flx it so
meats cannot come here from Mexico?"
asked Senator Williams.
"I do not particularize," said Mr.
Cummins. "I simply want' to protect
our consumers, no matter where the
meats come from."
Senator Norris also said he believed
the bill, if not changed, would give
the foreign meat producer an advantage
over the American packer.
Ckeap Heat Demaerata' Idea.
Senator Williams, In charge of the
bill, said the committee Intended to
admit foreign meats from countries
with Inspection laws Inferior to Amert.
can laws provided the Secretary of
Agriculture should define the original
Inspection was "good enough." He said
the United States has no power to
compel other countries to adopt definite
inspection system.
"Other countries in the- past have
compelled us to adopt certain rules,"
suggested Senator Lodge, "by excluding
our meats."
Senator Williams replied that the
Democrats "were not trying to make
the law impossible of ' admission," but
were trying to "secure" cheap meats for
the American people." . . .
Senator McCumber offered an amend,
ment proposing a countervailing of 20
per cent ad valorem on meat against
countries that levy tariff on Ameri
can meats. - '
Many of -the more Important items
on the tariff free list, were passed over
for future consideration. These In'
