MRS. THAW GOES
TO PITTSBURG
She Tells Her Son That the "Matter
Is Not Closed and Again Flays
Jerome.

| Concord, n. H., Oct. 2l.--Mrs. Mary
| Copelay Thaw, mother of Harry Thaw,
left for her home in Pittsburg yesterday
afternoon but before leaving gave out a
statement addressed to Harry. In this
she says that she has been called home
on business but contrary to her plans,
for she had planned on taking him home
with her. However, since the matter
has not been brought 10 close, she
says that considering the past actions
of Mr.. jerome it is improbable that any
thing that he may bring forward will
have weight
She says:
"My dear Harry:
IF anyone expresses surprise at my
leaving now, after waiting so long for
a decision that hoped would permit us
to go home together, say that affairs
at home require my attention. More
over. since it has been plainly shown
that Mr. Jerome's arrogant statements
made at the hearing before the governor
were false, it is improbable that anyone
will attach much Importance to any new
papers he may produce at this late day,
so YOU may soon be able to follow me.
IF Mr. Jerome had given heed to your
declaration made six weeks ago that you
had no intention of ever making public
the names OF his friends and supporters,
he might safely have given up his illegal
pursuit into foreign parts.
"Despicable as his course has been, we
wish Mr.. jerome no harm but simply
that he cease from troubling a man
who has repeatedly expressed the wish
that fellow being might spend the re-
mainder of his life among lunatics, and
this after he had officially declared TO a
jury that the man slain in 1905 came
to deserved end certainly has as
sumed heavy responsibility, so to
leave him with his own conscience will
serve.

REDFIELD PLEADS
FOR MORE FUNDS
For the Furtherance of the Work ol
His Department-Addres Given
Before Detroit Board of
Commerce.

Detroit. Mich, Oct. 2l.--With the dec
1aration that "the tide of American
business in the foreign field is at III
food and that means must be EN-
ployed to maintain it, Secretary Red
field addressing the board OF commerce
here to-day, made direct appeal tt
business men to ask Congress to appro
pirate more funds for the prosecution oi
the work of his department.
The secretary explained his proposed
reform of commercial representation
abroad, through the appointment OF q
rorps of special agents and supervision
of the commercial activities of the va
rious consuls.
Mr. Redfeld declared his department
had an ambitious program OF investlga-
tion and trade furtherance. He said il
was the intention of the government to
press it vigorously ''if funds were pro-
vided.''
"For example," said he, "at this pres
ent moment the inquiry into the pot
terry industry, which is a very impor-
tant and intended to be very helpful
investigation, is almost at standstill
for lack of funds.
81 assume you are aware OF the great
advance Of American export trade in
manufactures during the last year.
Time was, within the memory of most
of YOU. when we sold abroad chiefly the
products of our fields and farms or Of
Dur mines. We were known as a food
exporting country, and in a sense did
largely feed the nations. That day is
gone. Our exports of crude foodstuffs
nre but IS per cent of the total and
the major place in our export trade is
flled by the products of our manufac-
thrers, in which work you OF Detroit
have had large share.
"fTo sell our manufactures abroads to
the extent of over fifteen hundred mil
lions in value in one year is no small
thing; but when this continues to ex-
pand at the approximate rate OF half
million dollars daily, and when in this
total the largest item by far is that
of fully finished manufactures, which is
not only, as j have said, the biggest
item, but that which is growing fastest
then the statement is very much more
marked"
In concluding, the secretary told his
hearers that, if the funds were forth
coming, he proposed to reorganize the
bureau of corporations so that sys-
tematic inquiry into all big combina
tions could be made. This, he said,
would not be undertaken in any inimical
spirit but solely for the purpose of Sc
curing information which he believed the
government should have.
