back. But before carrying out that
part of the program he went over
with his lawyers the results of their
all day search in the law books of the
State library for precedents bearing
upon the eXtradition proceedings to be
held before Gov. Felker. Tuesday.
The lawyers said they were we'll
satisfied with the results of their in
Yestigations, and expressed confidence
that they had a strong case for the
Governors consideration William M.
Chase of this city, a former judge of
the state supreme court, and author
of the official digest of New Hamp-
shire statutes, is taking a leading part
in this work of Thaw's lawyers.
Mail for Thaw and his counsel and
communications to Gov. Felker con-
cerning the case continue to pour in
in great quantities. otherwise, there
seems to be a lull in proceedings so
far as surface indications show. There
have been many departures of those
connected with the case and no new
arrivals. BY Monday night, however,
practically the full force of those for
and against Thaw is expected to be
on the scene.
A small furry of interest was caus-
ed, this afternoon, when New York

Lord Dewey Captures Sec
ond $4,000 Race.
Frank Bogash, I., Takes 2.12
Pace in Three Straight.
Six Races 0ccasionsd BY Post
poned Races Of wednesday.

Detroit, Mich, Sept. 1s.-Lord
Dewey, winner of the Empire State
trot, last week, at Syracuse. captured
his second $4,000 race of the season,
today when he took the Michigan
Circuit races, from a field of in
straight heats.
His victory was expected. So was
that of Frank Bogash, Jr., in the ZIP
pace, with its purse of $4,000. There
We're only four starters in the latter
event. and the brown gelding again
proved himself to be in the class of
the seasons green packers. Leata j.,
generally his closest rival tried hard,
but never seriously threatened. Six
events were completed. This was
made necessary by the rain which cur
tailed Tuesdays program and post
poned yesterdays card. Only one
event-The 220 pace-went to the limit
of FIVE heats. Homer Baughman, driv-
en- by Geers finally won it. 1t was
Geers' first victory of the present
meeting.
The 214 pace was a romp for Prin-
cess Margaret, the fayorite, who was
followed in each heat by Zanzibar. DR..
B. p and Jones Gentry fought strug-
gle in the PIG pace The third heat
was the most thrilling of the day.
Down the stretch, punched, came sew
en- of the horses. 1t appeared to be
anybody's victory. Suddenly streak
of grey flashed to the front, maintain
ed her lead to the judges stand and
won from Molly Darling, who just
nosed out Jones Gentry. Loretta W.,
had things all her own way in the
three -year-old trot. She won two
straight heats and, in the second, fin
ished more than two lengths ahead of
Frisco Lad.
In the $4,000 race. Reusens never
threatened, Almost every time Geers
attempted to drive him, he broke. The
first heat was the hardest fought but
in each of the three, Lord Dewey won
with a mild drive. Six races Will
probably be run, tomorrow, in an ef-
fort to bring the meeting to close.
