ALBANY, n. Y. August 1S-John r..
Riley. state superintendent of prisons,
left for Matteawan today to make a per-
sonal investigation of the circumstances
surrounding Thaw's escape. He said he
regarded it as suspicious that the guard
at the gate had failed to overtake the
fleeing man. 1T takes time to start an
automobile he said. land the mere fact
that car was standing outside the gate
when the guard opened it should of it
self have aroused his suspicion
Supt Riley said he had received re-
quests from both governors yesterday
for informations as to Thaw's escape
He complied in each case.
Gov. SulZer gave out Supt RiIey's tele-
graphic reply to his inquiry In il the
superintendent informed the governor that
Friday Thaw had private interview with
one of his counsel by order of Judge
jerks. Supt. Rileys telegram follows:

For the Sake of Posterity.

From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
The Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh is
trying to obtain the base ball uniform
and glove of John c"Honus') Wagner
the famous Pittsburgh shortstop, to place
upon exhibition with its notable relics.
DIR. W. J. Holland. director of the mu-
scum, said that the achievements of all
great and skillfui men and the games
in which they were skilled were handed
down to posterity from past ages, and
therefore there is no reason why relics
of so accomplished base ball player as
Wagner should not find place in an
American museum.
Quite right, Base ball is as important
to America as the Olympic games were
To Greece. Its triumphs should be his
torically recorded and its relics and tro-
phies preserved.
But when relics of Wagner, than whom
no better exponent of the great game
can be found. are exhibited his uniform
and glove should not alone be procured
Several Of those bats with which "Honus
was wont to break up" so many games
and with which he achieved his wonder
full repute as a batsman and led his
league for SO many seasons should as
suredly be included in the collection.

NUTMEG POLICE ON WATCH.
Wilton Resident Reports Seeing Auto
With Man Resembling Thaw.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, August 49,
| Police officers all over Connecticut were
| on the wath today for clues to the course
| that Harry X. Thaw took in his supposed
fight through the state yesterday. The
| theory that the automobiles reached
ROTOR point enar South Norwalk In the
| late afternoon and that Thaw embarked
upon a yacht seems to be supported by
facts.
Shortly after 5 O'Clock in the afternoon
r. H. Fitch, a business man living in
Wilton at the junction of the Ridgefield
and Danbury roads, was hailed by men
driving a black touring car. who inquired
as to the road to Stamford.
There are two roads east from this
point and the driver appeared anxious to
take the road which would enable him to
avoid Norwalk, town of some size with
telegraph and police facilities. This car
had no passengers.
Twenty minutes later second car. also
with New York number on it. stopped
at Mr.. Fftch's and made similar in
quiries. The chauffeur remarked that he
had become twisted on the roads and
did not want to take the Norwalk road.
In the car We're three men and a woman.
! The woman showed great nervousness
and the man beside her was very impa-
tent, urging the chauffeur not to con-
tinue talking. The man had dark mus
tache and wore blue serge suit.
This car departed and inside of twenty
minutes third car stopped at the house.
A man who sat beside the chauffeur
asked for directions to Stamford, laying
stress on his desire to avoid Norwalk. He
also made an incidental query as to
whether any vehicles had gone that way
lately. Mr.. Fitch had not heard of
Thaw's escape. but the actions of the oc
cupants of the three New York cars in
terested him. All cars were of the high
powered touring type.
Later in the morning, after Mr.. Fitch
had obtained copies of the morning pa
pers. which had pictures of Harry Thaw
and Mrs. Godfrey G. Whitney. who was
| formerly Miss Alice Thaw. he said that he
recognized one of the passengers in the
second car as Thaw. my recollection is
that the man wore a black mustache,'
he said. but 1 remember that it con-
trasted strangely with his facial appear
ance. The woman beside him somewhat
resembled the pictures of Miss ThaW."

wan. where the five stopped two days
prior to the escape, came to Poughkeep-
sic to tell District Attorney Conger what
he had observed about the men. A
chauffeur employed by Gordon, and two
employees of the state hospital who saw
the car with Thaw inside dash down the
hill from the institution also came here
and gave the authorities description Of
the men.
Shortly after midnight this morning
Sheriff Hornbeck said he had had a
talk with Howard Barnum, and that Bar
mum denied absolutely that he received
any money from Thaw or his agents,
and declared he was as much surprised
at Thaw's escape as the public at large.
"A man by the name of Hickey drove
up to the gate with milk said Bar
mum. land rang the bell for admit
lance. When l opened the gate to adj
NIT him Thaw was standing back of me,
he and other prisoners having the liberty
of the yard being allowed at that point.
While the gate was open and 1 stood in
the opening. large black touring car
drove up TO the gate at an easy pace.
Suddenly there was dash by Thaw
for the car, and he leaped upon the run
ming board. The car put on high speed,
and ThaW was whisked away in a mo-
ment. the car being hidden by a cloud
of dust. l then notified DR.. kieb of

crime of seven years ago. and as cody

Leaving the breakfast table in the
ASYLUM as usual Sunday morning, about
30 O'Clock, he walked around the yard.

was his wont. spoke about the weather

decide during the September term wheth-
err Harry Thaw is to receive the income
from his fathers estate, which since 1908
has been accommodating in the vaults of
the Fidelity Title and Trust Company of
Pittsburgh.
Thaw recently demanded 100000 from
the trust company and Judge j. J. Mil
Ter of the orphans court granted a
rule on the trust company to show
cause why the money should not be
paid. The trust company answered 1t
was willing to pay the money If the
court should SO order and the matter
went over until the regular term next

BY the will of his father. William
Thaw, Harry Thaw was to receive
