Court Holds IL May Be Detrimental to Send Him Back to Matteawan Depends on Justice
 Bowling.

New York, June i2.--Harry K. Thaw will remain in the Poughkeepsie jail pending an application of his counsel to Justice Bowling of the Supreme Court for a change of the order com hitting him to the State hospital for the insane at Matteawan.
 This decision was rendered by Jus tice Morschauser of Poughkeepsie, af- ter hearing arguments of counsel in this city today on a motion to trans fer Thaw to any State asylum other than an asylum for insane .convicts.
 Justice Morschauser expressed the opinion that 1t might be better for Thaw to be incarcerated in some other asylum than the one at Matteawan as 1t was evident that strained relations existed between the head of the Mat teawan institution and Thaw.
 Colonel Franklin Bartlett and James c. Graham of Newburgh appeared for Thaw. Colonel Bartlett contended that Thaw could legally be transferred to any other State hospital for the Insane and in the argument for the transfer counsel asserted that Thaw would per- sonally rather be in the Tombs or Poughkeepsie prison than in Mattea- wan.
 District Attorney Jerome said that fs personally had no objection to the transfer of Thaw to some other hospi- tai If he were convinced that 1t was for Thaw's good and that there was no danger of his escape.
 Justice Morschauser stated that he could not go back of Justice Dowling's s order sending Thaw to Matteawan but in view of the statements that Thaw might not recover there because of the feeling he has towards the head of the institution he would stay the execution of the, order recommitting him until such time as Thaw's counsel could ask Justice Bowling for change of the original ordar.

 Poughk eepsie, June 12.-The first meeting between Harry K. Thaw and his wife.

MONK GIBSON TO HANG
For the Murder of the conditt Fam
lily In jackson County Nearly
Three Years Ago.
Special to the Herald.

Special to the Herald.
Cuero, Texas, June 26.-The story
of one of the most sensational and
dastardly crimes that ever stirred
Texas will be brought to a close to-
morrow, when Monk Gibson mounts
the gallows to pay the death penalty
for the murder of the Conditt family
in Jackson county nearly three years
ago.
The murder of Mrs A J. Conditt
and her four children occurred on the
Conditt farm near the town of Edna
early in October, 1905. The husband
and father was summoned from his
work IN the field by Monk Gibson, a
negro youth, and told that something
had occurred at his house. When he
arrived home he found the terribly
hacked bodies of his wife and four
young children lying about the house
and in the yard Monk Gibson told
story of having seen a negro leave the
place and he himself was not at first
suspected. He failed to stick to his
story, however, and Investigation by
the authorities led to the fastening of
suspicion upon him. After he was
taken into custody he made sensa-
tional escape from his captors and
was not found for some time. Fear
of lynching led to a speedy trial,
which resulted in his conviction and
sentence to death. A new trial was
obtained and this and appeals to the
higher courts have delayed the carry
ing out of the sentence for more than |
two years Another negro was exc
cuted more than year ago on the
charge of having been an accomplice |
of the Gibson boy in the murder OF |
the Conditt family.
