the battle. Iut Johnson, in my opinion,

had told him today that "he thinks the
man who offered him $4,000 if he would
aid in releasing Harry X. Thaw "is
named John Anhut."
AS a result of this information the gov

issued subpoena for John Nicholson
Anhut." whose name appears in New

asked to appear before the committee
Monday, when the inquiry into charges
that William f. Clark. secretary of the
committee. had used the governors name

Thaw's release, will be resumed,
The governor in a statement issued to-
night said that Dir. Russell called on him
today to tell all he knew concerning the
attempts to bribe him in the interest of
Thaw's freedom"

New York to meet a man whom he thinks

to New York in response TO this invita-
tion and met this man who told him he
could make $4,000 If he would help TO
get Thaw out of the insane asylum. Sub

both occasions

before the committee on inquiry Monday
to testify to everything he knows in con
neetion with the case.

May at that time that no one had any
authority to use my name In this mat
