1t was photographed because of the
 fear that something might happen to
 it. It shows that Thaws lawyers are
 taking no chances and everything is not going to be entirely harmonious
 between the Dominion representati- yes and the, counsel for the defense.
 Two clever representatives of the Canadian Department of Immigration arrived here this evening. They were in court when the writ was granted and are ready to grab Thaw the minute he is freed. That is what Thaw's lawyers are afraid of and to- night they are figuering out some plan of delaying the habeas corpus pro- ceedings, or if that failed, to secure ruling that their client is immune from action by the immigration au- thorities. The ticket to Detroit is the basis for the latter contemplated action.
 In the crowd that surrounded the court today the Sherbrooke police arrested a man answering the des- eruption of Roger Thompson, one of the men acused of conspiring to free Thaw from Matteawan. Tonight he is confined in the same building with Thaw, but they have not been allow ed to communicate with each other.
 The prisoner gave the name of Mitchell Thompson and has engaged Solicitor lShurtleff, one of Thaws counsels, to protect his interest. Tho anti-Thaw forces here. headed by Victor Vearrette, Kings Council, who will oppose the habeas carpus writ before Judge Globensky tomorrow, were swelled today by the arrival oi three New York state officials. These were District Attoney Conger and Sheriff Hornbeck, of Duchess county, and Deputy Attorney General Frank lin Kennedy Conger and Hornbeck bore warrants accusing Thaw of con- spiracy and Kennedy was sent here by the New York legal department to assist in the efforts to secure Thaw's return to that state. The three of ficials held a long conference this evening and at it's termination ap- peared hopeful that they would Dc able to take their man back with them.
 { The sustenance for Thaw's legal campaign will be handled by MT. and Mrs. George Lauder Carnegie, the prisoners brother-in-law and sister who arrived here tonight from New York. They will decide if any more lawyers are needed and will engage an alientist to prove that Thaw is sane. if an attempt is made to deport him on the grounds of insanity.

the wake of Provisional President Huertas rejection of President Will sons proposal as submitted by his personal representative, John Lind. would appear now to depend upon Washington. If the United States gov ernment were willing to reopen the controversy there is every reason to believe that the Mexican government would be willing.
 An official statement from Frederi- co Gamboa, Mexican foreign minister says that negotiations between Mr. Lind and the Mexican government have not been entirely broken off. but that they are being confined confi- dentially." This statement was given to representatives of the Mexican newspapers for local publication this morning. It was the first news given to the local press Monday morning.
 Mexico's reply to the United States, while couched in diplomatic language, was a definite rejection of President Wilson's proposals as presented by John Lind.
 Unless the Washington government secs fit to submit new propositions it is considered here that the negotia- tions will be closed.
 More Statements.
 The statement made by Dr. Urritia. minister of the interior, on Monday night. and subsequently denied. that the United States had been given un- til Tuesday night to recognize the dicate the attitude of at least por- tion of the Mexican government But the conservative element appears to have won the upper hand, and is show ing a tendency to continue friendly relations with MT. Lind
 President Wilson's envoy today is awaiting instructions from Washing ton. He is still optimistic, and be- lieves that the Mexican government may yet elect to entertain President Wilson's peace proposals.
 Regarding the character of notes exchanged betwen the two govern ments, Mexican officials refuse to en- ter into any discussion.
 The Mexican government has sent to each of the foreign legations in Mex ico City note, in which it was stated that the negotiations with Mir. Lind were continuing in cordial manner and denying that Minister Urritia had made any statement which might be regarded as an ultimatum to the United States.
 Personal relations between Presi dent Wilson's emissary and the mem. bers of the government here arc friendly. Mir. Lind last night sent the Mexican foreign office message o1 coincidence over the loss of life in tho explosion at Tacubaya, where nearly 100 persons were killed.

A New Hampshire View.

Manchester, N. H., Aug. 2O-"New Hampshire has no room for lunatics or others of the type of Thaw," said Attorney General Futile today. "If Thaw is returned to New Hampshire you can rest assured that New Hamp- shire will go to the limit to get him back into responsible hands,"
 Mir. Futile would not discuss the law involved.

SUFFERS "FRIENDs" GO BACK ON HIM

Albany, Sept. 22.-William Sulzer,
the man whose boast it has been for
quarter of century that he re-
mained poor after continuous office
holding, is almost broken hearted.
The blow that has stung worse than
the lash on naked flesh is the deser-
ton of the men for whom he has
risked so much and done more.
On the advice of counsel, Sulzer
surrendered to Lieut.-Gov. Glynn
some of the powers of his high Of
fee. Even before the ink was dry
from the letter of notification the
many Office holders who had fawned
on Sulzer in the past had, like rats

deserting a sinking ship, rushed to
make their peace with Glynn. They
cared more for the jobs than for the
man who originally honored them
and who now needed their backing
and friendship.
Sulzer has aged perceptibly in the
last month. The lines that have al
ways marked his face are now scared
there as though by hot iron.

DON'T WANT WOMAN.
Waltham City Government DisIikes
Idea of Women for Office.

Waltham, Mass. Oct. 1.-The idea of
having women in public Office does not
appeal to the members of the city govern

in woman's favor made by Mayor
Duane. Consequently Miss Ida A. Ryan,
tired of the storm which has ragged
around her appointment by the mayor as
superintendent of public buildings and
grounds, has resigned her position as as
sistant in that department
The aldermen have persistently refus-
ed to confirm her appointment or that
of Miss We're Ryan as assessor. Miss
Ida Ryan, who was named an assistant
under "A former administration, was no.
titled two weeks ago that both her work
ing hours and her salary had been cut in
half. Yesterday, she resigned Miss
Ryan was the first woman to receive
the degree of master of science from the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
following her graduation in 1905 from the
architectural course at the institute.
