Thaw's Sister Goes to Sherbrooke. Perhaps the most interesting of the telegrams he sent was that which in- dicated a sense of lonesomeness and a longing for & direct word from some one near to him in the midst of his fight for liberty. His sister, Mrs Margaret Thaw Carnegie, Wife —of George Laurer Carnegie Jr, had_tel- egraphed Harry that she was ready to start fgr Sherbrooke “if 1 can be of y help to you.” His answer was Yes” come. 1 need you. Harry.” Mrs. Carnegie's action was equally prompt and quite as emphatic for she notified her brother that both she and her husband would be here to greet him tonight. They reserved rooms at a local hotel and Thaw expressed a wish to his coounsel that his sister be brought she arrived Detective O'Mara Offers Aid. Amopg the telegrams was one from RogerO'Mara, the Pittsburgh detec- tive, long identified as a worker for Thaw. ‘I have opinions from best authori- ties that you cannot be extradited. Wire me what can be dome for you from here,” was O'Marra’s message. Thaw, in his petition for a writ of habeas corpus, set forth that he was first committed to jail “without any preliminary examination, however, and without any opportunity having been given him to be heard.” Not Charged with Criminal Offense. He recited further that he “is not charged with any offense against the criminal laws of Canada or any other country,” and “because the offense charged against him is not an offense under Canadian law, he therefore can- not be tried.” The alleged offense with which Thaw is charged is briefly that he is a fugitive from Matteawan pen- itentiary where he was serving a life sentence for a criminal charge of which he was convicted.” It is upen the wording of the com- plaint that Thaw's attorneys hope to varry them successfully through to- morrow’s skirmish without uncover- ing their principal defense. Immigration Authorities Prepared. The agents for thegDominion immi- gration department have seriously con- sidered the probability that Thaw will be released. They do not plan to give him more than a moment's freedom. To sustain their case they have a dozen clauses in the immigration act which they say are applicable. Among these is one which places in the “prohibited class,” any “insane person or persons who have been insane within five years.” Another clause provides for the deportation of any person who en- ters Canada “by force or misrepresen- tation or stealth.” Thaw in Good Physical Condition, Mr. and Mrs. George Laurer Car- negie reached here tonight shortly be- fore 11 o'clock. They sald they were both tired and would not see Thaw to- night. They talked to him briefly over the telephone. Accompanying them wa Dr. Britton D. Evans, medical di- rector of the New Jersey state hos- pital at Morris Plains. He was the originator of the term “brain storm” at the Thaw murder trials and has been retained by the Thaw family in the present proceedings. Drs. Hume and Austin examined Thaw in the jall today and it is said found him In good physical condition though suffering acutely from nervous excitement, _ Defense Regards Arrest Absurd. The Thaw case here is characterized defense as the most absurd piece of legal action they have ever seen. They declare the crown is in the position of having arrested a man against whom they can now bring no action, even were he charged with a breach of the Canadian code which he is not. What would happen if the jndge | were to refuse the applcation to quash the commitment?" Dr. Shirtleff of counsel for the defense was asked He mused for a moment and then broke into a smile. ‘Why 1 guese Thaw would have to stay in jail at Sherbrooke for the rest of his natural life” he said. Some Surprises Predicted. J. N, Greenshields of Montreal, who arrived tonight to take charge of tha Thaw defense, indicated a new plan of procedure. “Wait and see, we'll have some sur- prises for you in the morning” he faid, “it seems to me that the pros- ecution has got itself rather in the hole.” He declined to elaborate his brief | statement | by WILL CROSS TO VERMONT.

Sulzer Still at His Desk. On the floor beneath Governor Sulzer continued to discharge the functions of chief executive in the old executive suite He was surrounded by _his clerical staff, the members of which were much perturbed over _an an- nouncement by Mr. Glynn that they ould be requisitioned by him for ser- ce as they might be needed.

Acting Governor Glynn's statement follows: No Factional Reprisals. “Owing to the duties thrust upon me by the constitution. I wish to make clear the policy I purpose to pursue as acting governor. “I do not intend to employ a tem- porary occupancy of the governorship for the purpose of partisan warfare. “Under me, as acting governor, there will be no political earthquakes and no factional reprisals. “I have no intention of removing de- partmental heads for mere political reasons. “I propose to discharge my sworn obligations for the best interest of the public.

Official chaos must end and the affairs of the state pro- ceed as if no impeachment proceed- ings were pending. Until the court of impeachment renders its decision I in- tend to do only such things as may be necessary for the smooth running of the business of the state.” SLIT SKIRT FOLLOWED BY CROWD OF 100 MEN Policeman Takes Wearer to Milliner’s and Has Skirt Stitched Up.

Property ; § SAYS SEATTLE CITIZENS ENCOURAGED RAIDS \ Better Element of City Desired Such a Demonstration, Press Encouraged It and Police Made no Effort to Prevent It, Declares Board of Investigation—Qutbreak Followed Ats tacks Upon the Flag, Soldiers and Sailors, Board Reports Washington, Aug. 20.—Secretary Daniels has directed the punishment of the sailors of the Pacific reserve fleet who participated in the destruc- tion of the Industrial Workers' of the World and Socialists’ property in Seattle, July 17-18, if they can be identified, though he severely con- demned the civilians who abused the sailors and the American flag. I. W. W. Attacks on Flag. The secretary’s action today was on a report by a board of in- based uj n headed by Commander s Washington. The board found that for some time before the rioting at Seattle there had been attacks upon the fiag, the government and partic- ularly upon the army and navy in the Pacific seaport cities by people calling themselves members of the Industrial Workers of the World and to some ex- tent by so-called socialists. The civil authorities, the report said, allowed speakers to harangue crowas and en- gender ill feelings, resulting in the at- tack upon the soldiers and two sailors July 17. This led to the burning and destruction of property on the follow- ing night. Poloice Force Blamed. The board has placed dircct respon- sibility for 'the action of the crowd, led by civilians and including only a | small proportion of emlisted men, upon the fallure of the police force to pre- vent the destructioon of property be- cause of their sympathy with, the pur- poses of the crowd. Fythermore the G_expressed the opinion rioting was attributable to that the | general sentiment agalnst the Industrial Work ers of the World and the criticism of the press, and that the presence of en= listed men was made to serve the pur= pose of accomplishing an end which the better element of people and the press encouraged. » Sailors’ Conduct Cannot be Condoned. In passing upon this report, which was transmitted by Rear Admiral Rey- nolds, Secretary Daniels declared that while the conduct of those who de- nounced and assaulted ~soldiers was most reprehensible and deserved con= demnation, “their violent language, unprovoked assault on soldiers and. lawlessness does not justify retaliation in_kind.” The secretary recalled his statement in a speech in Seattle that obedience to authorities and respect for th flag must precede any reforms. Ho ex- pressed regret that the sailors had per- {mitted themselves to forget their duty to uphold the law which they had sworn to uphold, and added that their conduct in Seattle was against the naval regulations and could not be condoned or allowed to go without! punishment. Guilty Sailors Not Known.
