SCARED STIFF MAIN DEFENSE
 IF CAM|NETT|
Counsel Argues Only Man Crazed by Fright Would Have Made That Reno Trip-Case Goes to Jury Today

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 4.-The fate of F. Drew Caminetti will rest in the hands of the jury by noon to- morrow Given tine same charges, the same admissions, the same judge tn make the same rulings on Virtu ally the same evidence, and the same defense to oppose it, the chance that the verdict will be different from that found against Maury I. Diggs lies in the fact that twelve men are trying him
 As the defendants own brother put it to the jury today this whole case is simmered down to a single issue, namely, what was the intent and purpose of the trip to Reno. The whole evidence tends to show that the defendant left Sacramento be- cause he feared impending arrest and that articles were about to be print ed in the newspapers. No one but a man crazed, and maddened by fear of arrest would have gone on that crazy trip, none but a lunatic. We do not claim that fright is a defense for crime, but when we are seeking for a motive the state of mind must be considered"
 If this Is the strength Of the de- fense the weakness of it may be stated in the words of Theodore Roche. arguing for the government. ''The contention of the prosecution"
 he said, lis not that Caminetti alone
 induced or enticed the girls to leave
 Sacramento but that he aided in in ducing and enticing them There is plenty of evidence to show that the girls did not want to go.
 Caminetti himself, however, sug- gested that the girls go to Reno to- gether, to be joined later by the men.
 The most striking divergence in the course of the Diggs and Caminetti trials was the wholly unexpected ap- pearance late today of Anthony Caminetti, Jr., as advocate of his brothers defense. There was a gasp and flutter of surprise when he rose to make the opening argument for the defense. There was a strong reminiscence in his shouting and pas sionate delivery of his father, A.

 SAN FRANCISCO, Sept 4-David c. NorcrOss, secretary of the Western Fuel company, whose officers and employees are under indictment on charges of conspiracy to defraud the government, ignored an order of the United States district court today and failed to produce the books of the company before the federal grand jury. Accordingly a mandate of the court was issued by Judge Maurice T. DOOIing, and NorcrOss will be cited for contempt tomorrow.
 The Western Fuel cases came into prominence with the Diggs- -Caminetti white slave cases, when former United States District Attorney John L. Me Nabb resigned and. explaining his ac- ton, said the department of justice at Washington had ordered him to post pOne both sets of cases.
 The summons to appear before the grand jury and bring the books and papers of the company was served upon Norcross a week ago, and when he refused to produce the company's books, Assistant Attorney General Matt | Sullivan obtained from Judge DOoling an order of the court direct ing Norcross to obey the summons and appear IOOdy WIIn IIe company $ books or be cited for contempt of court.
 Samuel Knight, attorney for the Western Fuel company, notified As sistant Attorney General Sullivan to- day that NOrcrOss would not produce the cOmpanys books. He said he would appeal from whatever sentence might be imposed on NorCross to- morrow.

THAW'S RETURN
 ONLY DELAYED
 SEEMS CERTAIN
Canadian Board of Inquiry Has Already Established One Ground for His De portation and Is Looking for Another
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPArcH1

COATICOOK, Sept. 4.-Harry K. Thaw was not 'railroaded' across the border by the immigration au- thorities today as counsel predicted. A special board of inquiry sat in his case from 10 o'clock this morning until late this afternoon and ad- journed to 9:3O tomorrow when the prisoner will be recalled.
 Thaw was on the stand most of the day and made a good witenss. Toward the close of the afternoon session his inquisitors gradually worked into the question of his sanity though his counsel violently object ed but without avail, and this line of interrogation will be taken up again tomorrow.
 Though staying off deportation for a day, Thaw lost in two particulars His lawyers were denied writ pro- hibition by Superior Judge Matthew Hutchinson of Sherbrooke, the same judge who sustained the writ of habeas corpus which cast Thaw out of Sherbrooke jail yesterday and he failed to establish before the board his contention that he entered Canada as a tourists like Jack Johnson, and should be allowed to continue to his destination. he could produce no through ticket to any point outside of Canada. In his possession was a ticket for Detroit but unfortunately for Thaw it had been purchased at Coaticook. He was unable to show he had come into the Dominion through any recognized port entry.
 Thaw was practically convicted of entering by stealth, and on this charge alone he can be deported But on this charge he could appeal to the minister of the interior, but if found to be of unsound mind it will be within the discretion of the board to deport Thaw direct across the New York State line, possibly at Rouse's Point This would mean his swift return to Matteawan. His con- viction on other charges would mean his deportation to Vermont.
 William Travers Jerome spent an impatient day waiting for something to happen. As the chief of the New York forces he hoped to have Thaw

Democratic Leaders Believe That the Bill Will Be Completed for It's Return to the House Tomorrow Night
FINISHING TOUCHES
 BY CAUCUS TODAY
Concession Will Be Made to Insurgents" by Accept ing Additional" Tax to Income Tax, Provided in Original Bill
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH


 WASHINGTON, Sept. f. inn Demo cratic leaders of the senate will be- gin supreme effort to complete the tariff bill and pass t before adjourn ment on Saturday night. As a part of the program, the senate adjourned tonight until ? o'clock tomorrow af ternOon. A final session of the demo- cratic tariff caucus will be held to- morrow morning. A compromise of the income tax rate, representing a further concession to the ''insurgent' advocates of an increase on large incomes will probably be adopted without much opposition at tomorrow mornings session. It proposes to in crease the "additionar' tax rates on incomes of $750O to $1O0.O0O from ? to 3 per cent.
 The senate leaders decided to name seven senators to the joint conference committee which will settle the diff ferences between the two houses after the senate passes the bill. This will proVid places for Senators Simmons, Williams, Stone and Johnson of Maine, democrats. who have been in charge of the bill and three repub licans. It is expected that the house will consent to this plan.
 It is believed that the sugar fight will not take more than an hour when the bill comes to the final stages, and the promised fights over free wool, cotton and the income tax will be held within close limits. It is eX- pected that the sessions of Friday and Saturday will run to long hours in the effort to get through the bill.
 The latest proposal for income tax rates which seemed tonight likely of adoption by the democratic caucus would establish the following total tax, including both the normal tax of 1 per cent. and the .additiOnaP tax on large incomes: One per cent. on incomes of $3O0O to $20OO0; 2 per cent on S20.0OO to $5O,O0; 8 per cent. on $50,0OO to s75,00O; 1 per cent. on S75.Q0O to $100,OOO; } per cent. on $10O,OOO to $5OO,OOO; per cent. on $500, GOO to $1,OOO,OOO, and per cent. above $1,OOO,00O.

TAssoc1ArED PRESS DISPATCH


 LOS ANGELES, Sept 4.-That marks of the surgeons instrument were found in John (BulD Young's brain at the autopsy, was declared late today at the hearing of JesS Willard and eleven others held in connection with the fatal fight at Vernon on August 22. Earl Rogers, attorney for the defense, made assertion continuing his attempt 70 show that YounG's 0eath resulted from an operation and not from q knockout blow struck by Willard.
 The charge was advanced during the examination by pr. Hugh Johnson, a physician who declared that automo- bile tape wrapped around the hands of boxers made their fists like ham mers He declined, however, to say that this was the case in the Young Willard fight. The defense attempted to break down the testimony of Dr. R. B Griffith, who reiterated his deciara- tion that Young died from blow on the jaw.
