Albany, Feb. Ex-Governor Sulzer's
committee of inquiry found it's first

this in its own house, when it took
up the investigation of efforts made to
obtain the discharge of Harry K
Ihaw from the MatteaWan HospitaI
for the Criminal Insane. DR.. James
V. May, president of the state hospital

superintendent at Matteawan. testified
that William F. Clark, secretary of the
committee, had declared to them al
different times that Governor SulzeI
wanted Thaw released and wanted DR.
Russell to order the discharge.
Mr.. Clark made an emphatic denial
of this charge. He said his first visit
to Matteawan in connection with the
work of the committee was to investi
gate a story he had heard to the eff
feet that DR.. Russell had in December
received $4,000 to discharge Thaw anC
had returned and retained part of this
money. DR.. Russell admitted he haC
been offered and had refused $1,000
if he would release Thaw, but would
neither give the name nor describe
the lawyer who had made the offer
nor tell where it was made except 1
was in a hotel near Central park.
Governor SulXer denied he had eve
taken any interest in the case or hat
authorized MIR. Clark or anyone els
to use his name in an effort to Obtain
the release OF Thaw. He admitted
however that DR.. May came to hin
