Judge Globensky Postpones Habeas Corpus Hearing
 and Shurtleff is Busy
N. Y. OFFICIAL FAILS
Made Plea for Immediate Hearing of Case Secretary Bryan
 May Take a Hand.

Sherbrookc, Quebec, Aug. 2l-Thc State of New York met with a sharp rebuff from Canadian judge this afternoon in it's efforts to secure i'm mediate possession of Harry K Thaw and the international prisoner won his second legal victory in his fight he is making to keep the mad house behind him.
 The second round was won by Thaw when Judge Globensky of the Judicial District of St Francis put over until next Wednesday morning the hearing of argument on the habeas corpus writ, secured on the representation that the prisoner had been illegally committed to the Sher- brooks jail after his arrest.
 Delay was what the Thaw lawyers torney Edward A. Conger, of Duch- ess county, New York. opposed delay, making this argument as the basis for his objection: The postponment of the hearing is illegal unless the prisoner in produced in court.
 Judge Globensky listened patiently to the representative of the New York State and then said
 ''I have decided to postpone the hearing, but all of the interested par ties must appear in my court next Wednesday morning."
 Coager showed his chagrin, but re fused to comment on the courts ac- ton. Thaw's lawyers were jubilent. They requested the postponement on the ground that they needed more time in which to prepare their argu- ment. The real plan, however, is to secure some action by the Canadian government that will prevent inn migration agents of the Dominion from seizing the prisoner as soon as
  hustling him to the border of New York State.
 With this purpose in view, w. l.. Shurtleff, one of the attorneys tor Thaw, left here for Ottawa. The next big fight in Thaw's fight for liberty is expected to be staged there. although the attorneys refuse to tell what Shurtleff will try to do. There are two theories:
 Flrst-That IShurtleff will appeal to the Immigration Department to per init Thaw's passage through the Do- minion on his ticket to Detroit, that he claims to have purchased.
 second-That if this appeal fails Shurtleff will apeal to the Depart meat of Justice for an order restrain ing interference on the ground that his entire treatment since his ar rival in Canada has been illegal.
 Shurtleff will also be prepared to resist in Ottowa any demand by the United States for Thaw's extraditiOn. That the demand will be made is not doubted. Thaw's lawyers are im- mediately informed of action taken across the border to secure their client and expect prompt action on Acting Governor Glynn's appeal to Secretary Bryan and Secretary Red- field that they have Thaw extradited with all possible haste.
 Threats made by some of the dis appointed curiosity seekers caused wild scare here this evening" Rum ors were circulated that there were plans on foot to kidnap Thaw from iail, carry him out of town and the:' liberate him so that he would have good start on the officers.
 ]. H. LaForce, governor Of the Jail, told the police that report Of the Kidnapping plot had reached him, but they investigated and found that the threats to free Thaw had been made by few men who declared if the government doesn't give him a chance, they will. 'i
 When Thaw was seen at the jail tonight he said that he had passed pleasant day and had no complaint to make about the way that Governor IaForce was treating him.
 MT. and Mrs. Carnegie spent nearly an hour with the prisoner.
