TH13 SUNDAY OREGONIAN, PORTLAND, NOVEMBER 9, 193. 3 THAW EXTRADITED IF COURTS CONCUR New Hampshire Governor Holds Fact of Indictment Alone to Be Sufficient. SANITY NOT PASSED ON Prisoner Remains In Custody of Marshal and Sheriff Pending , "Proceedings on Writ In Federal Tribunal. CONCORD, N. H., Nov. 8. The requi sition of the State of New York for Harry IC Thaw was honored today by Governor Felker. The case now goes to the Federal courts, where a writ of habeas corpus is pending. Thaw was not present when the Gov ernor's decision was announced. He will remain here In the Joint custody of United States Marshal Nute and Sheriff Drew. His attorneys announced to day that they would file Immediately an amendment to their petition for the writ, to make it conform to the new indictment found by the New Tork County grand Jury. The writ of extradition was granted on the Indictment solely, the Governor refusing: to so into the questions of sanity or of guilt or innocence. Indictment la Sufficient. In granting the extradition Governor Felker said in part: "By the petition of Governor Glynn and the accompanying papers, it ap pears that the grand Jury of the county of New Tork has duly returned into open court an indictment against Mr. Thaw. That is sufficient to warrant the arrest, arraignment and trial of the respondent, if he may be found within the state wherein the indictment is pending. It is furthermore sufficient to establish that Mr. Thaw Is if found in any state or country while such indictment is pending a fugitive from justice. "The provisions of the Federal Con stitution and the acts of Congress en acted to give force and effect thereto as construed by the court of last re sort on such matters, limit me to the consideration of the question whether the person demanded has been ' sub stantially charged with a crime and whether he is a fugitive from Justice. Such was the decision of the Supreme Court of the United States in the most recent case wherein a sister state de manded of New Hampshire the inter state rendition of a person within her border (Muncy vs. Clough, 196 U. S. S72, decided In 1903). In that case it was decided by a unanimous court that the proceedings in the matters of this kind before the Governor are surnrnary in their nature. f The person demanded has no constitutional right to be heard before the Governor on either question and the statute provides for none. To hold otherwise would in many cases render the constitutional provision, as well as the statute passed to carry It out, wholly useless. Mental Condition IVot Considered. "I have nevertheless, owing to the urgency of the demands of his counsel men in whose integrity I have confi dence and for whose opinions I enter tain deep respect given the fullest possible opportunity for the expression of their views. With profound respect, therefore, 1 am unable to view my duty In the premises as including an inves tigation of Mr. Thaw's mental condi tion or of the counsel for the State of New York as to the probable guilt or innocence of the accused. "To do so would hardly be consistent with the mandatory provision of the Constitution that a person charged In any state with treason, felony or other crime, who shall be found in an other state, 'shall, on the demand of the executive authority of the state from which he fled, be delivered up." "That would, furthermore, involve an attempted supervision by myself over procedure of courts of another state in a manner beyond the power of such state control. Such & course would, likewise, involve an inquiry into the motives of the authorities of the de manding state. . Any of those would manifestly lead to the virtual suspen sion and eventual nullification of pro visions of the Federal Constitution. "I have and I shall continue to as sume that the course of the State of New York does and will demand the full appreciation of the dictates of fair play and a righteous and equal administration of Justice."

Nov. 3. Wally Schang, the ex-Bison and the wonder of the baseball world, turned down a con tract of ?5000 offered by a represen tative of a New York vaudeville agency for his services for ten weeks on a vaudeville circuit. Under the terms of the contract Wally was to appear twice a day, do ing a "turn" of about 15 minutes in length and was to have received J500 a week. The Wales Center boy flatly refused to consider the offer, not be cause he considered the price too low, but because he had to help his dad "fetch in the taters." This is the second offer to go on the stage that Wally has refused since he proved himself a hero in the world's series. The day after the series ended In New York he was made an offer of $500 to appear at a local burlesque house, starting Tuesday night, and closing Saturday. Wally also flatly refused to consider the offer. INVESTIGATION IS ENDED Home Concern's Telephone Fran chise at Spokane in Jeopardy. SPOKANE, Wash., Nov. 8. (Special.) Following the investigation of the Government officials into the telephone merger In Spokane, which returned the fact that the Home Company is con trolled by the Bell, Commissioner C. M. Fassett today took teps toward a re vocation of the "automatic" franchise. In an official communication to Cor poration Counsel Stephens, he asks that the company's legal staff examine the Home franchise and report on the pos sibility of its abrogation. The Spokane phase of the phone mer ger hearing came to an end yesterday afternoon. The officials interested in the probe will continue their investiga tion Monday at Butte. They will take testimony at Helena, Billings, Boise and Denver, in an effort to further disclose the grip of the phone octopus in the United States. After those hearings the Federal of ficials will probably go to Chicago and New York before a final report is made to the Government. Bitter opposition of the Bell Company to the smaller con cerns was revealed in the testimony brought out yesterday afternoon. It was also shown that the Bell organiza tion owns 25.605 shares of stock in the Home Company. ASIATIC BAR IS SOUGHT Washington TTniversity Regents Crit icised by Ijabor Leaders. SEATTLE, Nov. 8.
