Stamford White, escaped from
the hospital for the criminal in
sane at 7:45 this morning.
A dart for liberty through an
open gate. dash into the open
door of an automobile with q
limousine that stood quivering
outside and a flight for the Con-
necticut state line 80 miles away
accompanied his escape. To-
night he was still at large.
Once beyond its boundaries
Thaw is free. Only months,
perhaps years of litigation can
bring him back to Matteawan
and then only in one event-that
he be adjudged insane in the
state to which he is fled. Five
confederates manned the car in
which Thaw escaped. The po-
lice have their descriptions and
the names under which they reg
istered in a local hotel Friday.
The hospital authorities be-
lieve that Thaw has fled to Long
Island sound and in a yacht Will
escape to Europe.
A reward of $500 for Thaw's
apprehension has been offered by
DR.. r. F. G. Keib, superintend-
ent, of the asylum. Howard H.
Barnum, the attendant at the
gate past whom Thaw flashed is
under arrest and other arrests
are expected to follow in the
rigid investigation DR.. Kieb is
making.
The shades were drawn in the
dormirorys and the inmates were
getting their second sleep when
Thaw dressed and walked from
the dormitory to an outer court.
A milkman cart was rumbline
on the road outside when he
walked into the store room and
to the outer courts. Barnum the
only attendant, was pacing out
side and. apparently did not
grant Thaw a second look.
Long years of residence at the
asylum and repeated declarations
by Thaw that he would never at
tempt to regain his freedom ex-
cept thro gh the courts had
caused the attendants to be less
vigilant.
There was little out of the or
binary in his appearance even at
so early an hour in the court
yard and if Barnum saw him
as to this none but the hospital
authorities can say he did not
modest him.
A six cylinder touring car,
black, go horse power, followed
by the limousine loafed along the
road as the milkman passed the
gate Thaw waited until Bar
mum unlocked the gait to let the
milkman enter. At the same
moment the two cars drew up or
the further side of the road.
AS Barnum stepped aside fol
the milkman to drive inside he
heard the gravel crash under
Thaw's feet. He dashed through
the gate.
With shout Barnum started
in pursuit but a flying leap land
cd Thaw In the car. The great
wheels were slowly turning be-
fore the keeper reached the
roadway.
Down the roadway the cars
sped in a whirling cloud of dust
that quickly blotted them from
sight. For a moment Barnum
watched them. Then with the
first blot on his career of &c
years as keeper at the asylum he
returned to report to the super
intendent.
"Thaws gone-es escaped" he
shouted bursting into DR.. Kieb's
presence and in a moment the
fight was or"
The great black car flashed
through Stormville 10 miles
away tn the Connecticut line.
Early risers saw three mer
except Thaw. They were lying
low to escape the breeze.
They were 10 minutes out oil

How they FELT is imnGaierial.
The fact IS that when they voted
with the Republicans they dis

as their pledpc TO the people.
This is an act Of periidy Wilrh

aligned with and vote with ne
p,rbllcans against the policy ol

Neither Senator Ransdell nor

The action and the attitude OF
