THE NEW YORK MAYoRALTY.
Gaynor May Receive Support from Re.
publicans.

New York, Aug. ga turn in politi-
cal events involving the suggestion that
Mayor Gaynor, Democrat, whom Tam
many refused to renominate, might head
the Republican ticket through securing
enough Republican signatures to accom-
plish this at the primaries caused ad-
journment yesterday of meeting of
the county judicial and (Manhattan)
borough designating committee.
The Republican city committee has al
ready given its support to John Purroy
Mitchell collector of the port, Democrat,
the fusion candidate for mayor. 1t de-
veloped at the meeting yesterday, how
ever, that there is considerable senti-
ment among Republicans who were ex-
posed to the fusion slate to have Mayor
Gaynor's name placed on the Republican
ballot through petition. The organiza-
tion which have announced their purpose
to give the mayor an independent nom
nation are reported to be ready to place
on that ticket several Republicans in
return for Republican support for the
mayor
Mr. Mitchell in a letter sent last night
to the independence league refused the
nomination as mayor which the league
rendered him on Saturday. He gave as
his reason the fact that the league did
not endorse two of the fusion cand-
dates, William A. Prendergast for city
controller and George McAneny for pres
ident of the board of aldermen. 81
could not honorsbly accept under such
conditions" wrote Mr.. Mitchell. He
asked the league to reconsider its an
nounced purpose to designate Others
than Mr.. Prendergast and Mr.. McAneny
for the two offices.

NOT BEFORE SNOW FLIES
Will Thaw Leave Canada, Declares Ex-
Governor Stone.

Sherbrooke, p O., Aug. 26.-The in
terjeetion into the Thaw case of renewal
of talk of international aspects is one
of the important developments of the
past day.
The possibility of an international
twist in the case came from Ex-Governor
Stone, who raised the point that Ca
madam embroiled in the Dominon's iron
clad immigration law regulations would
doubtless have right to appeal to the
courts. Thaw, it has been said, would
have no such privilege, no opportunity
to appeal should he be ordered deported,
except to the minister Of the interior
at Ottawa. Mr.. Stone regarded this as
contrary to the treaty between Canada
and the United States guaranteeing TO
American citizens before Canadian courts
the same rights as Canadians.
I'm my opinion" said Mr. Stone. "the
snow will be deep in Sherbrooke before
Thaw leaves Canadian soil"
None of the contingent of Thaw's Ca
madam lawyers would commit them
selves as to whether they shared Mr..
Stones views, although all of them CON
ceded that the constitutionality of the
drastic immigration law, comparative
ly new one, had never been tested in the
courts. They said that so far as they
knew the procedure outlined last week
would be followed, that of arraigning
Thaw in the superior court Wednesday
on writ of habeas corpus, obtaining his
release on the present commitment, max
ing fight before the immigration board
and then relinquishing to the American
lawyers, if Thaw were deported, the
of the legal battle in Yer
mont.

HOUSTON RELEASED.
Barre officers Hold Man No Longer for
Plattsburg Authorities.

Ernest Houston, the Plattsburg, Y. Y,
man, who was detained for two days
at police headquarters pending the action
of Clinton county officials, was released
yesterday afternoon and allowed to re-
sumo the peaceful pursuits of stone poi
ishing at the North Barre Granite Co. 5
plant. Houston was allowed to walk out
of police headquarters free man, after
the Plattsburg police authorities, as welt
as Sheriff Mark Turney of Clinton coun-
ty, had decided that the nature of the
charge would not warrant any extradi-
tion proceedings. The man was held for
non-support charge preferred against
him by his wife, now resident of
Plattsburg. Anticipating the early ar
rival of the New York officers, the Barre
policemen took Houston into custody.
The latter retained Attorney e, L. Scott
and intimated that he would oppose ex
tradition.

Sherbrooke, p. O., Aug. 26.-The pos
sibility of long drawn out legal fight
over the constitutionality Of Canada's
drastic immigration law, under which it
is proposed to deport Harry K. Thaw
into Vermont subsequent to mis- arraIgn-
ment in the superior court tomorrow
was the favorite theme of both factions

ported.

BURLINGTON BOY STRANDED.
He Had Almost Beaten His Way Homo
From Denver When Arrested.

Rutland Aug. 26.-After he had sue
ceeded in beating his way on trains over
half way across the continent to reacn
his home in Burlington, Edward Sulli-
van, a circus man, was arrested by raii
road officers in this city within 81 miles

with the Buffalo Bill show for two years.
On July % they went out of business
at Denver, Col, when the property was
attached for 100000 and $50 hands were
thrown out of work, not receiving pay
due them. Sullivan soon started tor
home and had no trouble in beating his
way until he was taken off the blind
end" of the Rutland railroad flyer here.
He will probably serve 33 days at the
county Jail because he cannot pay fine
of So and costs of about IS. He was

SULZER RANKS BROKEN.
Some of Counsel Disclaim ANY Part in
Criminal Proceedings

| Albany, n. y, Aug. 26.-A possible
breach in the ranks of Governor Suffers
supporters was indicated by the state
ment yesterday of former Judge D-Cady
Herrick, who leads the Governors legal
forces in the impeachment matter, that
counsel for Governor Sulzer have moth
ing to do with any alleged criminal pro-
ceedings against Charles +. Murphy,
Senator Frawley or Assembly1nan Levy
and are not pursuing any investigation
of criminal character against any one.
On the other hand, Judge Lynn j. Ar
mold in New York and others in Albany
in the confidence of Governor Sulzer re-
terated the declaration that steps to
procure indictments already have been
taken both in New York and Albany
counties.
Color Is lent to the claim that Gov
ernor Sulzer is not only eognizant of
this move but entirely in accord with it
by a statement given out at the execu-
tive chamber yesterday by man who
has frequently acted in the capacity of
his press agent. This statement asserts
unequivocally that Governor Sulzer
will go before the grand jury in New
York county if it requires his presence"
II also afiirms that District Attorney
Whitman of New York is familiar with
the facts upon which indictments are
sought.
District Attorney Sanford of Albany
yesterday disclaimed any knowledge of
any attempt TO lay before local grand
jury evidence relating in any way to the
goyernorship mix-up.
Governor Sulzer declined personally
to comment on the situation and Acting
Governor Glynn was equally reticent.
Neither of the rival claimants for the
goyernorship was called upon to act on
any official matter OF Importance dur
ing the day.
Governor Sulzer yesterday received
letter from Woodbridge n Ferris, the
Democratic governor of Michigan, ex-
pressing the hope that New York state
would be well represented at the meet.
