Prosecutor of Harry Thaw Learns Upon Arrival at Canadian Capital That Premier is On His Way to New York City
TRIES AN ATTACK
 ON COMMITM ENT
Is Endeavoring to Throw Prisoner into Hands of Immigration Authorities and Secure His Deporta- tion to United States
rAssocrArED PRESS D1sPATcH1


 SHERBROOKE, Aug. 2S.-Harry Thaw's lawyers, successful so far in keeping their client in jail safe from the immigration authorities, rejoiced tonight when they received word from Quebec that the trip of William Ira vers Jerome to see Sir Lomer Gouin, the provincial premier and the attor- ney general had been in vain. Jerome, the leader of the New York state forces is seeking Thaws return to Mattea- wan. accompanied by Deputy Attorney General Franklin Kennedy, left here last night. hoping to lay before the pre- mier the facts and persuade him to sweep aside the commitment under which ThaW is held at Sherbrooke and place him in the hands of the immigra- ton authorities.
 Presumably Jerome did not know the premier would leave Quebec for New York to join those meeting Lord HaI- dane. who is to arrive there from Eng land tomorrow. Similarly this fact was not known to Louis St Laurent en- gagged bv the Thaws' to defend Gen tleman Roger" Thompson, the chauf- fcur Although concerning himself chiefly with the Thompson case, St. Laurent is a. resident of Quebec, a lib- eral and supported of the premier and in being dispatched thither. was under stood to use whatever influence he could bring to bear against the premier taking action in the Thaw case at this time. He will return tomorrow to de- fend Thompson when the latter is ar raigned before District Magistrate Null vana on a charge of aiding an undesir- able alien to cross the border. If Thompson can prove he is a British subject he will not be depOrted, but will be fined the maximum of $500 or imprisonment for three months.
 Thompson. it was said tonight, will plead not guilty and absolutely will not "squeal" on the details of Thaw's de- livery from MatteWan.

YUMA BRIDGE
 GETTING HELP
 FROM COAST
Methods Are Being Consid- cred in Los Angeles to Raise Funds Which Cali folnia Legislature Neg lected to Supply
Especial to The Republican,

LOS ANGELES. Aug. 2S.-Plans are under way and within day or two one or more methods will be decided Upon whereby the full amount will be raised necessary for the construction of the Yuma Colorado River bridge.
 The question is now being discussed by a special committee appointed by tho Los Angeles chamber of com merce to whom the matter was referred from the Yuma chamber of commerce.
 John S. Mitchell of Los Angeles, staunch friend of Arizona, is prime mover in the movement and is doing everything possible to advance the building of the bridge at Yuma to con- meet Arizona with the Ocean to ocean highway.
 "Phoenix must be the gateway of all roads to the west" says MT. Mitchell whose slogan in the campaign is Let in the borderIand route"
 Decidedly interested and pulling eV- cry wire to see the money raised, MT. Mitchell is devotinS his heart, soul and time to the task.
 The people of southern California feel obligated to get the amount and it is our duty to see that the money is raised Just how it is to he done will be determined in a short time and then they can count many of us ready and willing to do our share
 Much satisfaction is being expressed by Arizona motorists on the coast, in the election of Mont P. Chubb, secre- tary of the Ocean to Ocean highway, as a director of the automobile club of Southern California. He too, is boost inc for the borderIand route.

 COLORADO SPRINGS. August 2S. That an inefficient legislature is one that does not express the pOpu- lar will and in it's turn becomes the creature of the special and non progressive interests is the keynote of the address delivered here today by Governor George w. P. Hunt to the Governors Conference. The morning was given over to a discussion of the subject of the general popular distrust of legislatures and it was handled in this way by the chief eX- ecutiVc of the new state of Arizona, who openly charged his own legis- lature in it's special sessions as being unresponsive to the popular will, and the tool of the interests
 Governor Hunt inferred however that his legislature did not openly thwart the peoples will by passing such legislation as would immediate ly align the majority of it's members as unprogrcssive. rather the all too convenient method of smotherinS progressive legislation was adopted, and the old laws allowed t. stand The Arizona legislature he said had been responsive during the first reg ular and first special session, but
  less than d year afterward it showed . the taint of the special interests. ] Ccasing to do right rather than open i Iy doing wrong is the fault with the i Arizona legislature, the governor as serts.

 Wilson's Warning
 And LeaUe MexiCO
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPATcHl

WASHINGTON, Aug. 28.-Ameri- cans in Mexico are needing Wilson's warning to get out and the state q partment officials believe that two weeks hence there will hardly be one thousand left in the troubled south ern republic.
 Although many had refused to con- slider leaving before the word came of the presidents advice hundreds have been starting for home or abroad daily the last three weeks and it is estimated that nearly ten thousand or about that many still in Mexico have gotten away.
 Of those now preparing tQ leave. four thousand need help from the government so the $1O0,00O appro- priation asked for by MT Bryan some time ago to aid the refugees will be needed immediately. Since February the state department has aided, it was said today, between four and five thousand refugees furnishing money and transporta- tiOn in some instances and in others securing special rates, which the in dividuals themselves could not get.
 Department officials estimate that there were about sixty thousand Americans in Mexico two or three years ago and Ambassador Wilson places the number as high as 75>Q00 In aiding the American refugees the American Red Cross spent $23000 last year and the trips the army transport Buford made down the west coast to Mazatlan, Mazanillo, TopolO Bampo and other ports cost the wal department $36.000.

LONDON, Aug. 28.-COmm entinG on the Mexican situation the Pail Mall Gazette says
 We fully understand President Wilson's message is born of the travail of his soul. He is good. devout man. earnestly desirous of furthering his ideals of peace and justice. but on whom rests the ro- sponsibility for the protection not only of the interests of the United States in Mexico, but the lives Of some thousands of American citizens settled there. The application of his moral force consists in urging all citizens of the United States in Mex ico to abandon their occupations and clear out of the country and in proposing measures which must rest on physical force for preventing the entry of arms and munitions into the country either for Huerta or the rebels.
 We shall watch the results of the steady pressure of moral force with much interest, but without much be- lief in it's success. We preached many times the last troubled months that physical force not backed by moral force is both brutal and fu- i tile put we are COinpelIeu dlSp IO accept the converse idea that moral force not backed by physical force | is no less futile and in consequence i is likely to become even more brutal. Golden dreamcrs of The Hague at l the American capitol shrink from recognizing the fact so fatal to their | theories. We shall see what Mexico has to teach them.'
 The Evening Standard says.
 The United States as We have | already learned lately distrusts anna Iteurishness in sports. It knows that 1 if you want to win any contest you must rely on the expert and to take care of this the expert knows all the details of his business.

was ayes 46, noes 81.
This is one of the most important
measures pending in the legislature,
and now that it has passed the house
by safe majority, it is believed that
the senate will not hesitate over the
bill. The dormitory in its unfinished
condition is practically worthless to
the state, and this appropriation will
be sufficient for its completion and al

ARMORY DISPUTE
BROUGHT TO END
AGREEMENT is REACHED
REMAINING GAMES OF 1918
SEASON WILL BE ALLOWED
TO BE PLAYED.

The controversy between the ath-
letic associations of the city and the
petitioners who want basketball games
at the Armory suppressed, was ten
tatively decided last night at the regu-
lar bi-monthly meeting of the city
council. 1t was agreed by all con-
cerned that the remaining games of
the 1913 season be played in the Ar
mory.
Several new phases of the COM
plants We're brought to light last night
by various members of the council and
representatives of both the petition
iers and the athletic associations. Prof
c. c. Denney, who represented the
Normal club, asked for the specific
charges in the complaints of the peti-
TONERS, and J. j. Nixon, one of the pc
titioners, enumerated them Prof.
Denney asserted that the complaints
should not be made against the ath-
letic associations of the city, but
should be made against individuals
who were guilty of the offense
1T is NOT right" said Prof Denney,
that the associations should be held
responsible for the wrong -doings of
individualcs If the faculty of the Ar
kansas State Normal finds one of her
students violating any of the charges
made in the complaint, he will be dealt
with summarily, and we would not
permit athletics of any kind if we be-
lieved the athletes violated these
charges"
Prof. T. S. Staples represented the
Hendrix College association, and ad-
mitted that there were some grounds
for complaint, but that these, he
thought, would not occur again.
Prof. A. J. Meadors of the council
spoke in favor of continuance of the
games.
r. B. McCullocn ana j. R. Donnell,
aldermen, also spoke on the subject.
Mayor w. II. Duncan was the last
speaker. He stated that several new
features were brought out at the
meeting which had not been discussed
before. He was of the opinion that
the charges were used discriminatory
and that the offenses alluded to might
have been committed by outsiders.
Mr.. Nixon, in behalf of the peti-
Itioners, stated that as the season will
be finished on March 7, he would with
draw his complaints and allow the re-
naming games to be played, but that
he would never consent for games to
be played in the Armory after this
season.
All of the aldermen present voted to
allow the remaining games of this sea-
son to be played in the building.
