them as the most wonderful he had

sharpe says Coast Men Prefer to Lose
Ono by Draft.

San Francisco, Aug. 29.-Manager
Sharpe of the Oakland club of the Pa
cific Coast Baseball League. explained
today the persistent refusal by coast
rlavers of alluring major league Of
fers, by the declaration that the coast
clubs had decided not to sell their
ttar men to the majors and to meet
every offer with counter offers, so far
as possible.
1t has been the custom of the
league to sell some of the best men
before the drafting season opened in
this manner getting higher price for
PLAY ers than the draft provided.
This has been stopped" said
sharpe 1.-THE league needs players
and needs them badly and will re-

will lose one good man by draft, but
we may be lucky enough not to lose

much to prevent his obtaining freedom in
1909, has resigned.
He has been replaced by DIR. James w.

.THAW may Be FREE
Movement for His Release
From MatteaWan Hospital.
PLAN LIKELY TO SUCCEED
New York District Attorney Unable
to Interpose Objection.
CASE NOT UNDER HIS CONTROL
DR.. Austin Flint, Insanity Expert,
Declares Liberation Would Be
Miscarriage Of Justice.
CASE NOT UNDER HIS CONTROL

NEW YORK, January 9.-The barred
doors Of the State Hospital for the Crinh-
nal Insane at Matteawan are standing
ajar for Harry K. Thaw, slayer OF STAN
ford White.
For several weeks 1t has been known
that Clarence j. Shearn, counsel for
Thaw, has been perfecting plan to OBJ
tain his clients release, and yesterday it
was established beyond question that the
plan is likely to succeed. In that event
Thaw will walk out Of. Matteawan q
free man within two months.
The chief reason for believing that
Thaw will regain his liberty, after many
failures to prove his sanity before the
courts, Is that the district attorney OF
New York county cannot interpose m
objection unless especially instructed to
act in the matter by the attorney gen.
eral at Albany. There is no indication
that such instructions will be given.
This leaves the attorney general him
self the only oIncial who can appear In
behalf of the people. Under the laws OF
the state he is the legal adviser of the
superintendent at Matteawan. but he has
not the complete knowledge OF the intli-
cate Thaw case that the county officials
have.
View Of Insanity Expert.
Dr. Austin Flint. the noted insanity
expert, who appeared for the state In
all the actions against Thaw. and has
made the case study, declared yester-
day that he saw little in the way OF
Thaw obtaining his freedom and vigor-
ously declared that such an event would
be the grossest miscarriage of Justice.
He believes Thaw to be dangerous
paranoiac, and declares that, uncon-
fined, he would be public menace.
DR.. Amos T.. Baker, until last August
first assistant physician at Matteawan,
expressed similar views. He is Of the
opinion that Thaw Is as insane as he
ever was; that his release would place
the lives Of citizens in actual danger.
and that it is the duty of the state to
use every legitimate means in it's power
to keep the man in confinement.
Mr.. Shearn was in Washington yester-
day and In his absence no one at his
office would say definitely what meas
ures he intends to take. It was admitted.
however. that IAN action is in prepare
ton and would be brought shortly. 1t
was intimated that the attorney was
greatly encouraged and felt confident of
success.
