Referring to the subdivision of the Liquor Tax law, under which the police ted in their contention that all re: taurangs where liquor was sold must close at 1 A. M., the Magistrate aid: The plain and unmistakable intent of the subdivision in question is that all | contracts made before 1 o'clock may be d out and completed, provided the proprietor fulfils his part before that hour; that at 1 o'clock the doors shall be closed and locked and that thereafter | none shall be admitted. But those in- jside at 1 o'clock shall have at least reasonable opportunity to consume what Previously has been purchased. “That has been the ruling of the courts of this city, so far as my ex- perience extends, since the Liquor Tax ‘law wan enacted, and I have been in one or the other of the courts having Juris tion during th tims | Pouice USURPED POWERS NOT THEIRS TO USE.

In outlining the case the Magistrate went over its whole .| history, declaring that the police “by force of brutal power became at once complainant, jud jury and execu- tloner” in their terpretation of the law. Magistrate Deuel cloned with the ad- mission, which Mr. Curtis said was Startling to him, that Dis! t-Attorney Whitman had visited Hea and been pr: it at the raid after a conference ‘with Magistrate Deuel and “with iny full concurrence.” On the strength of this statement Mr. Curtis sald he should | subpoena the Magistrate as a witness when the trials of the police occurred downtown, Magistrate Deuel to-day held In- spector Dwyer In $50 more ball on a charge of simple assault brought by Albert Grau, a theatrical man, of No. 689 Weat One Hundred and Fifty-fifth | street. | The Magistrat disposed of the dis- |puted poin how identifications |might be m oon as the cases of the policemen were called.

Thaw, accompanied by several men, arrived in this clty by automobile this morning and boarded a train which left at 11 A, M. for New Brunswick, Canada, i A New York man thought he recognized Thaw, but was net positive, 2! Wi ee oom Photographs of Richard J. Butler, former Assemblyman from this city, were identified to-<day by the proprietor of the Holland House at eacon, N. Y., his son, the clerk and others as the picture of the Richard J, Butler, who was concerned in the escape of Harry K, Thaw. The identifiers said there could be no doubt about and Butler's hand- writing on the hotel register has also been found to corespond with his writing as known to people who have had letters from him. A policeman at the West Forty-second street ferry also identified a picture of Butler this afternoon as that of the “Hooks” Butler in the case. i It is said that the same crowd that took Thaw from Matteawan Sunday had arranged to rescue him the last time he was in New York, at the trial of Lawyer John N. Anhut. But somebody's nerve failed and the rescue which was to have occurred at the Hotel Astor was bandoned, INSIDER NAMES FIVE IN PLOT. H. Finken, owner of the Cragston Express, at No. 651 West Forty- third street, told an Evening World reporter this afternoon that he was familiar with the beginning of the plot that resulted in the escape of Harry K., Thaw from Matteawan Asylum early yesterday. Here is Finken’s story as it relates to the Thaw matter and not including con- siderable information on the side which does not directly apply to the case, “IT have been handling the baggage of the Thaw family for fifteen years,” said the expressman, “and | know Mrs. Thaw and other members of the family. Last Friday a man whom I know very well, but whose name} wouldn't give up on my life, appeared down here at the West Shore ferry at the foot of West Forty-second street in a big touring car. “I'm not going to aay how 1 know this, but I do know that this man sald he wanted five good auto men to go up to Matteawan on a hunting trip. I'm not saying how he did it, but he met Richard J. Butler, known around liere as ‘Hooks’ Butler because he was once a longshoreman; Kug Duffy, Michael O'Keefe, Tom Flood and Roger Thompson, all chauffeurs, He talked with those fellowa and they went away with him and haven't been back here since, “Now, I'm not going to any how it came ont, but Butler and Thompson and Flood and the other boys had no sooner gone away when {t becama known around here that they were going to get Harry Thaw out. The fact of the matter {# that I don't know any more than all the auto boys around here know, and they knew {t was coming off before it happened.” What may be corroboration of Finken’s story ts the fact that all the men mentioned by him are missing and have been missing since last Fri- day. | THAW, AT LARGE, IS BEYOND CRIMINAL LAW, It was pointed out by lawyers to-day that Harry Kendall Thaw, at large, 14 a person roaming the country earrying with him what is In effect a Heense to murder, without fear of any punishment beyond being sent back to Matteawan, In the eyes of the law of this State, Thaw is an in- ‘sane person and cannot be held accountable for his deeds, | He way committed as an insane ‘son to Matteawan Asylum and has } never been relieved of the charge, ‘or any offense he may commit while at liberty he can set up the defense that he ts insane, and it would be up to @ State that has legally pronounced him insane to prove that he isn’t, ‘The realization of this fact is pot conducive to the peace of mind of Mrs, Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, William Travers Jerome, former District-Attormey; 4 " ' ”~ ed , a enacted Fa aaa
