To the Advertise:

The possibility of long drawn out
fight in the courts over the constitu-
i tionality of Canada's drastic immigra-
ton act under which it is proposed to
deport Harry Thaw was the faYorite
theme Of both factions gathered at
Sherbrooke
Thaw continued to show little inter-
est in anything except his publicity

ing statements to papers in Vermont,
where, notwithstanding all the theoy,

expects to be deported.
Late yesterday, the attorneys for
Harry Thaw withdrew their applica-
ton for writ of habeas corpus. This
means the prolonging of the proceed
ings looking toward his return to New
York state, for an indefinite period.
With both sides resting on their
arms at Albany, " Y, there was no
change in the goyernorship controyer-
sy today.

recognized in most departments of the
state government as the executive. is
signing papers. Governor Sulzer is

1t was reported today that the gov
ernorship controversy would perhaps
have an important bearing on the
result of Harry Thaw's fight to es-

attorneys could indefinitely delay his
return to Matteawan, at least until
such time. as the governorship ques

Glynn insists that he is Governor,
and that it would be through him that
the request for the return of Thaw

positions if they are acceptable to
Huerta. Huerta is not asked to re.

The great parade in Caracas with
which President Gomez demonstrated
the strength of his military arm at
Maracay on Saturday was an unusual
spectacle A group of twenty political
prisoners representing the Castro rev.
olutionists were marched into Mara
cay from the barracks at Tapatapa,
three miles away, with 5000 loyal
soldiers as their escorts. President
Gomez hoped to show by the demon
stration how futile were seditious
plots.
The bitterest mayoralty election
New York has seen in many years is
promised for the coming struggle to
choose a man for Mayor Gayner's
shoes. Republican fusionists dissat-
isfied with the selection of John Pur-
roy Mitchell are likely to renominate
