THREE HAzERS
CONVICTED

Of the four Sophamores| from the
University of North Carolina who
were tried for manslaughter, for the
the death of William Rand at Cha
pei Hill, last September, during a
hazine spree, Arthur Styron was
acquitted because there was no evi
dence to implicate him in the affair
the other three Vim. Leonard Mer-
rimon, Aubrey Carlisle Hatch, and
Ralph Oldham, were convicted and
sentenced to serve a term of four
months, each, on the county roads
of Orange county. with the provi-
sion that they might be hired out
by the commissioners of that county
The fathers of each of these hired
them from the county for the sum
of $4,000. Of course this amounted
to the same thing as imposing a
fine of $4,000 each upon them fol
the crime of manslaughter. Of course
they fortified their citizenship.

DIR. jackson declares that al

that death in that disease is pri-
marily due TO gangrene, although

He also declares that in none OF

drinking alkali water and aggra-
waited by unclean and unwhole-

disease can easily and inexpens-
lively be cured,
The FIRST essential that he gives
10 that the floors and pens and all
feeding troughs be put in clean

mends that they be washed once

lowing his acquittal Of the murder Of

was insane when he killed the archi-
tect, Thaw has kept up a continual
fight for freedom.
Immediately after his incarceration
in Matteawan Mrs. William Copley
Thaw. his mother, and other members
of his family began the long battle to
cause his release from custody by
habeas corpus proceedings. Writ after
writ was procured. and three long hear
ings before supreme court justices
were held, the justice in each east de-
Gliding against Thaw and sending him
back to Matteawan. Numerous other
writs were also sued out. each time
only to have the judge decide against
the wealthy Pittsburgher.
In May. 1908, three months after his
incarceration in the asylum. the first
important Thaw hearing was held.
This was in P~oughkeepsie before JUS
tice Morschauser. James G. Graham
or NeWDurs represented IhaW, while
William Travers Jerome, then district
attorney Of New York county and the
man who had been chiefly instrument
tai in placing Thaw where he was, con-
Quoted the states case.
Thaw produced an array Of ~alienists
who testified that he was sane, but
their arguments did not convince Judge
Morschauser. who on May %. 1908, de-
MED the application for Thaw's re
lease and ordered his recommitment to
Mates wan.
Efforts were then made to have
Thaw's mental condition determined
by q jury. and another writ OF habeas
corpus was sued out. While these
proceedings were In progress an ut,

moves received judicial sanction, and
both are numbered among the failures
that mark Thaw's long fight in the
courts for freedom.
Then followed many minor moves,
all intended to hasten Thaw's liberia
ton and in June, 1909. a writ was sued
out that was followed by a prolonged
hearing at White Plains before JUS
tice Mills in the summer of that year.
On July II the hearing started with
Mr.. Jerome in charge Of the peoples

fugitive slayer of Stanford

and the subsequent battle to
prevent his %extradition or deportation
throws into clear relief a serious defect
in the legal procedure of this country,
which finds no place in the systems Of
jurisprudence in vogue in most foreign
countries. Under the English law Thaw
would have been readily extraditable
at once, because he would have been
found guilty, but insane" by the Jury,
which in America after adjudging him
to be a lunatic was perforce compelled,
under our code Of criminal procedure,
to find him mot guilty. for that very
reason.
The result Of this odd twist in our
laws removes the possibility of treat
ing him as a dangerous criminal as
not extraditable, either from a foreign
country or from state to another,
were it not for the notoriety of his
case, Thaw would probably be safe
now in any part Of the world except
New York.
