II had been noted by them that she

Hearing on HabeaS Corpus Post
poned Until Wednesday, In
Suring His Retention in
Canada Until Then.
AMERICANS ARE 0UTWITTED
Their Plans to Get Speedy Pos
session of Fugitive Go Awry
Jail Guard Strengthened
Through Fear He May
Try to Break Out.

From a STAFF Correspondent OF The Tribune
Sherbrooke, Que. Aug. 2l.-Thc
Thaw lawyers won another delay for
their client to-day by getting Judge
Globensky to put off the hearing of the
writ of habeas corpus by which they
are seeking to liberate him until next
Wednesday, thus insuring his stay
here. to all outward intents and pur-
poses. until that date, safe out of tho
hands Of the American off icers who are
after him.
Information, however. reached those
most interested in getting Thaw back
into the Jurisdiction of the United
States which caus"I them TO get the
local authorities to place extra guards
about the Sherbrooke Jail IN case there
should be a second attempt by the
fugitive To break out. They also OBJ
taincd from the immigration authori-
ties the promise that the latter would
not accept bail i'm case an attempt
vas made 10 get him released 10y that
means. Sheriff Aylmer was instructed
by the court not TO honor bail bond
signed by any authority.
The cause Of the latter line Of activ-
ity was a rumor that those interested
in keeping Thaw away from them were
PLANNING 10 get bail bond for him.
Then. when the American officers were
on their guard. II vas the plan. ac-
cording to the information received by
District Attorney Congcr and his aids.
TO slip quietly up 10 tho jail with the
bond and the necessary $500 bail
money and whisk shaw away once
more. forfciting his bail.
In order To foil quick getaway of
any sort the additional precaution has
been taken Of keeping high powered
automobile in waiting near the jail Ia
bc ready to go IN pursuit should Thaw
cncc more get out by any device.
with tho completion Of these prccau-
ticns the American officials who are
hero 10 take the fugitive back 10 the
United States brcathcd easier in the
belief that they had prepared them
selves against any means by which
Thaw might once more jump over the
barriers between him and his freedom.

Puzzled by Thaw's Tactics.

There were several manpuErcS to-
day in the proceedings that the Ameri-
can officers said completely puzzled
them. Tho time for the hearing Of the
writ Of habeas corpus was first set FOL
10 o'clock. but Thaw's lawyers wanted
more time 10 confer and il was put of
until o'clock TO accommodate them
At the later hour there was no evidence
Of any proceedings I'm open court. nor
was Thaw taken out Of his cell
At a quarter after o'clock Sheriff
Hornbcck went 10 the prison 10 talk to
ThaW. While he vas conversing with
Governor La Force the latter received
a telephone call from Judge Globensky
who was in his chambers. and who
told the prison governor that the writ
had been changed and was not return
able until next Wednesday.
Both the governor and the sheriff al
once accepted that as official and
cEought everything was A a standstill
a few minutes later. however Bailin
Wright arrived at the Jail and served
La Force with a copy Of the writ as re-
turnable at once. Thinking that ii must
have been some unauthorized person
who had rung him up by telephone and
rot Judge Globensky. Governor La
Force got the Jail carriage ready and
ordered an officer to take ThaW over "a
the court
While the officer was on his way
upstairs To get Thaw the turnkey ad-
mttcd 10 the Jail one Of his counsel
who FASTENED To inform La Force that
the judge had changed the date for the
return Of the writ, had adjourned pro-
ceedings until next Wednesday and had
left town. Thereupon La Force coun-
termanded rs orders for taking Thaw
TO court.
II Sheriff Hornbeck, at the Jail, was
puzzled at these manpuvres at the
courthouse. District Attorney Conger
of Duchess County. was going through
an equally puzzling experience. While
he was waiting I'm the court, where the
long delay was unexplained. he stepped
out Of the room for a short time. When
he returned he was Informed. much to
his astonishment, that everything was
over for the day. and that the hearing
had been changed 10 Wednesday with
out any transaction in open court.
Everything had been arranged in the
iudpe's chambers between the judge
and Thaws lawyers. without the pres
ence OF any representative Of the
American interests.

1T was this defiance that brought the

THE MORGAN WILL.

The public will be disappointed, we
think, to find in the will of ]. p. Nor
gan no mention of the total value of
the vast estate which he left. Ever
since the death of the great financier
there had been much interest in the
anticipated disclosure of Just how
large was the fortune left by The
Wizard of the Street." and the will
gives no inkling. That the estate is
vast is a certainty, but the general
public will know nothing of its extent
or value until the appraisemcnt is
made for the purpose of paying the
enormous inheritance tax which will
be charged against it. But just the
same the last testament of the man
is an interesting and characteristic
one. Throughout it's entire length are
signs of his kindly and generous fore

IN THE HOUSE.

Today is the scheduled date for the
Introduction of the downward re
vision, haphazard tariff bill into the
house. The democratic caucus has fin
ished the framing of the measure and
now it will enter the course Of enact =
ment. 1t has encountered foes within
its own fold; it will have fierce
time in the broader field of discus
sion. But it is to go through on the
gallop: there will be special rules
which viii head off prolonged debate
and will prevent filbuster. And this
will not be so bad. The sooner we
know the worst, the better it will be
Prolonged agony is not pleasant. The
ccuntry's business circles are waiting
for the verdict. The quicker they get
it, the sooner they will be ready to
proceed with their operations. 1t is
the suspense which is making busi-
ness slack now.

MISSOURI JUSTICE.

We have a higher opinion now of
the quality of justice in Missouri. The
court which sent Colonel Nelson to
Jail for contempt, because his news
paper printed the truth is not typi-
cal Missouri tribunal-so it appears
from the character of the later action
in the Nelson case. The supreme
court has yet to pass upon the case,
but the report of the courts commits
sioner, which was given in the press
dispatches yesterday morning, is so
unqualfiedly favorable to the editor
that there can be nothing wrong in
anticipating that the finding of the
court of last resort will be to vindi
cate the colonel. In all the country
there is no man, occupying an edi-
torial position, who stands higher than
Colonel Nelson. That he should have
been subjected to insult and indignty
by corrupt judge was to the dis
credit of his state. That the action
of that judge is to be repudated by
the higher court is just as strongly
creditable.

pIOyes and servants. NO one seems to
have been overlooked. 1t is voum-
nous, but businesslike, document. In
it the dead magnate left explicit di-
rections as to the disposition of the
fortune, but left no undue burden for
his son to carry. except as the son
shall see fit to do. There will be, per-
haps, hypercritical persons who will
hold the opinion that the widow
should have been left more than she
will receive, but Mr.. Morgan states
that she has no need of any more
than she has, as she already is pro-
many years ago. The main feature of
the paper is the explicit command that
those persons holding claims against
the estate for which they have no
proof, shall be paid to the last penny;
this portion of the will is highly char
acteristic of the man who, though ac-
cused by many Of manipulating the
money market to an undue length,
has never been charged with defraud-
H. one single person. Mr.. MOrgan's S
personal record is clean and the re-
ligious nature of his will marks the
attitude he always bore through life.
