migration board of inquiry reconvened
and continued taking testimony on
the advisability of Immediately de-
porting Harry K Thaw.
Attorneys n. K Laflamme and w
X. McKeown returned this afternoon
from Sherbrooke, where they made an
unsuccessful attempt to secure an in
junction restraining the immigration
officers from deporting Thaw. They
argued for three hours before Justice
Hutchinson. but at the conclusion the
judge said:
Gentlemen, / have done all / can
in the Thaw case"
When this news was communicated
to Thaw he looked crestfallen and
urged his lawyers to fresh endeavors.
After the board had been in ses-
sion more than an over in the after
noon report came from the hearing
room that the inquiry could not be
completed today, but would continue
its sessions tomorrow

companied by Counselor La Framme

morning proceedings before the board
as "travesty on Justice The hear

made good impression. Questioned
as to how he came to be on Canadian
soil. Thaw said that when he left

cumvent his pursuers
He went as far as Rochester, n
H., he said. by motor car. He wanted
to reach the first railway point in
Canada where he could buy q

learned after purchasing a ticket al
Rochester that he could make better
time by taking another route. so he
bought second ticket at Beechers
Falls.
Beechers Falls happened to be the
last station on the Maine Central rail-
road. so Thaw got off the train there
and engaged a man to drive him over

chase ticket there for Pittsburg

ana night presentations. Mr..
D'Oize is not a stranger to Tampa
audiences and there was keen inter
est among those who have admired
him in stock productions in his re-
appearance as "Shylock?" in "The
Merchant of Venice" This gifted
actor has spared no expense in stag
ing his present production and with
entirely new scenery and costumes,
gave most pleasing presentation
Of the familiar story. Thoroughly
at home in the part, revealing the
closest study not only Of the bis
trionic but the psychological and
ethical elements of one of Sheke-
speare's greatest characters, Mr..
D'Oize embodies consummate
"Shylock." leaving undeveloped not
one of the subtle touches of artistry
which portray an unforgettable fig
ure in the English drama. AS the
self-serving Jew. the triumphant
Jew and, finally, the crushed and
broken-hearted Jew, pleading the
persecution and yet asserting the
Righteousness and the independence
of his race, he gave to the role its
every delicate shade Of feeling, his
rendition being particularly notable
for the clearness of enunciation in
the reading of the lines and flex-
Utility Of voice which carried per-
fectly the impressio sought by the
immortal dramatist who conceived
and wrote the play.
"Mr. D'Oize is supported by Miss
Eugenia Flagg and capable COM
pany, which, while not without its
weak points, avoided the oftentimes
ludicrous deficiencies of the provin-
cial Shakespearian production"

FATHER AND son ARE
INJURED IN SAME WAY

OLYMPIA, Oct. 1.-THE most Pc
culiar coincidence accidents since
the workmen's compensation act went
into effect was reported to the indus
trial insurance commission last week,
A father and son of the same name
we're injured at the same plant each
b! a circular cay. and each sustain
ing a mangled left thumb. The two
accidents happened within an hour of
each other.
The victims were John Melcher Sr.,
and Jr.. one a man of so and the other
youth of IS. Both were cutting
wedges in the plant of the Tillicum
Development company at Loomis,
Okanogan county. when the thumb of
each man came into contact with the
circular saw. The son sustained the
more severe injury and is still dis
abled, while the father is back at
work
The remarkable similarity in the
two accidents made the commission
believe the same accident had been
twice until the matter was investi-
gated.

GERMAN BATTLESHIP
TO MEXICAN WATERS
FORMIDABLE DISPLAY TO BE
MADE TO SHOW HUERTA
WHERE HE STANDS.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.-Ger-
many's decision to dispatch a warship
to Mexican waters attracted wide at
tention in official circles here. Presi-
dent Wilson was informed OF Ger
many's action only by press dispatch
es.
No formal comment was made on
The incident but it was apparent that
the Washington government was not
displeased.
Significance was attached to the ac-
tion by official Washington however,
bevause it was accepted as indicating
that European powers which pre-
viously had recognized the Huerta
government. among which were Ger
many and Great Britain, now saw ev-
licences of Huerta's inability to DOM
mate the situation.
Latest advices from Great Britain to
Washington are TO the effect thai
King George and Queen Mary have
taken a personal interest in the sit
uation with a view TO measures that
would support the policy OF the United
States. 1t is reported that Great
Britain is prepared at the first op-
portunity to repudiate her recogni-
tion and that failure of the Huerta
administration TO hold a constitution
al election on October 26 probably
would be held as sufficient cause.
