LEAPS TO DEATH FROM
NIAGARA FALLS BRIDGE
Climbs Onto Railing and Filings
Himself Into Whirlpool Rapids
Was Stopped Once.

Niagara Falls, N. T.. Sept. 1e.-A
man believed to be John Hawkins, 6S
years old Of Erie. Pa. committed sui
eide by jumping into the Niagara river
from the lower steel arch bridge yes
terday. The bridge spans the river
just above the surface Of the water.
Hawkins had been stopping at a
hotel here. Two women standing on
the Canadian cliff saw a man climb
upon the railing on the north side of
the bridge.
The man sat astride of the rail for
several minutes looking down at the
turbulent waters. When the officials
from the Canadian end Of the bridge
ran toward him, he lurched forward
and his body shot downward, turning
over in the descent and striking the
water head foremost. He came to the
surface once before the white foam
Of the big drift closed over him.
The suicide was the first from the
lower arch bridge In three years Haw-
kins was pulled from the bridge rail-
ing Saturday night. but convinced his
captors then that he was not bent on
suicide.

Crowds Of Curious People Throne
Courtroom and Adjacent Streets.

Littieton, N. H., Sept. 1e.-Harry
K. Thaw scored another temporary
victory in his fight against extradition
to New York when Judge Aldrich in
the United States district court sus-
pended proceedings in the hearing on
the writ Of habeas corpus without
setting a date for future hearing.
This continues the writ and guards
against H the possible @ y forcible Femoxai
should Governor Felker find against
the Mattewan fugitive in the extra
dition matter.
When the Judge took his seat short
ly after IL o'clock the small court
room was crowded. and outside the
building crowd Of women pre-
dominating, jammed the street from
curb to curb.
The Judge suggested that either
side notify me within six days when
they are prepared to 90 on with the
Hearing September 28.
Counsel for both sides, after a
telephone conversation with the gov
ernor, agreed that the extradition
hearing should not be held until
September %.
Cannot be EHtzadited.
In open discussion with Jerome
after announcing the suspension hear
ing. Judge Aldrich said q search OF
the statutes failed to reveal to him
any law under which man in
Thaw's position, q lunatic charged
with crime. could be extradited.
Many Accompany Thaw.
Thaw, with custodians and a train
OF contending lawyers. left Colebrook
this morning to appear in the United
States court on the habeas corpus
proceedings brought to check any at
tempt to rush him back to New York.
Thaw's lawyers obtained the writ
as protection In case Governor Fel-
ker signed the warrant extraditing the
fugitive. A large crowd of lawyers,
newspaper men, telegraph operators
boarded the train at the station where
q large crowd Of curious gathered.
Not Bona, Eide.
William Traverse jerome was pre-
pared to bitterly contest the plan Of
Thaw's attorneys to obtain the con-
tinuance Of the writ. on the ground
it was not bona hde writ of habeas
corpus, but an emergency measure
designed to meet possible develop
ments after the extradition hearing at
Concord, tentatively set for Wednes-
day.
Thaw's lawyers contend he desires
the courts protection in view Of the
fact that the New Hampshire status
affords no recourse to the courts aft
er the governor has once granted ex-
tradition.
