Concord, N H., Sept. 2O.-A mass of information bearing upon extradi ton precedents in New Hampshire lay before counsel for Harry Thaw tonight ready for presentation before Governor Felker Thursday in an ef fort to defeat the attempt 70 have the slayer of Stanford White re turned to Matteawan asylum. The order of the procedure of the defense will be decided Monday. It had been hoped 10 submit an outline of the plans to Thaw's mother and sister Mrs. George Lauder Carnegie, today but no members of the family except Harry are here.
 There was considerable uncertainty tonight as to whether Mrs. Thaw would be able to make the trip here before the ex.radtion hearing Tues day She is in charge of a trained nurse and it is believed the excite ment of the proceedings next week may make it inadvisable to bring her to Concord
 William T. Jerome, who is in charge of the case for New York state. is not expected before Monday night According to present plans, Governor Felker will arrive Monday from his home in Rochester He was quoted today by a close friend as saying:
 Now that this matter has been put up to me, I shall decide it in ac- cordance with what seems to me to be my duty; simply and solely unin- fluenced by public clamor or any other outside consideration. My mind is perfectly open on the subject of extradition and want full informa- tion before I decide
 While Thaw's counsel were work ing today in the state library build. ing their consultation room was in yaded by moving picture operators. They were promptly expelled by for mer Governor Stone of Pennsylvania, leader of the Thaw forces, who dep recates the introduction of what he calls the "circus element into the case.

Three Penitentiary Trustees Allege Do

Nly Upon Returning-C. c. Smith,

Montgomery, Plaintiffs.

Jackson.-A new chapter was written
in the official and legal history OF the
State of Mississippi when suits or suis
was instituted in the Circuit Court oil
Kinds County against the governor oil
the state by men who, like him, hold
their position by virtue OF the votes oil
the electorate. The statement made by
one OF the parties to the suit some
some weeks ago to the effect that we re
going to sue Earl Brewer for a quarter
of a million dollars, for deliberate anu
willful SANDER" appears to have beeh
made good, and in fact, improved upon
for the three penitentiary trustees, in
their individual capacity, bring SUIT IN
the sum of 100000 each against Earl
Brewer, also as against the individual,
and not as the chief executive.
The style OF the new suit is I. l..
smith, Leroy p. Taylor and W. A. Mont
gomery, plaintiffs, VS.. Earl Brewer, de-
tendant. 1t was prepared and filed by
V. V. Montgomery, Jr, OF Edwards, ne
phew of Col. w. A. Montgomery, one
OF the parties OF the first part. In the
declaration, which is made up OF Tour
counts, il is averred that neither OF the
plaintiffs has been ever accused OF
wr~ongdoing or crime, yet the aforesaid
Earl Brewer, well knowing the premises,
and greatly envying said plaintiffs IN
their good name, fame and credit, III
their official position as trustees OF the
state penitentiary to bring them into
public scandal, infamy and disgrace
caused it to be suspected and believed
that the said plaintiffs were guilty oil
fraud and dishonesty, and OF cheating
and imposing upon the State of Missls
sippi, with the intent to Cypress and
ruin them.
There are several counts IN the de
claratiou, in which alleged u~tterances
of GOV. Brewer, either spoken outright
or submitted for publication, criticlizns
the penitentiary trustees methods OF
disposing of the Parchman %cottcn, are
quoted from. These remarks, it II
claimed by plaintiffs, rave caused then
to be brought INTO public disgrace; thai
they have been and are Stunned ant
avoided by diverse persons and great,
injured.
Premises considered, plaintiffs ash

at the governors office to find that b

1t is stated by those close to Gov
Brewer that he has been waiting O
just such action as the above befV
coming out with certain informatio
which he has in his possession, and n
doubt is felt that an answer will b
forthcoming in due time.

Forty thousand persons must be fed,
clothed and housed for a week more.
Many thousand persons must be cared

their all, when their household goods

stoves and a few dollars. A half mil

by the relief committee.
Fifteen thousand houses and business
buildings must be rehabilitated.
Two thousand houses and other struc.

be pulled down.
Thousands of tons of debris must be
removed.

SLAYER OF |sSAQUENA
PLANTER IS LyNCHED
MOB HANGS LEM DAVIS, NEGRO,
NEAR MAYERSvILLE.
This Is First Lynching in Issaquena
County in a Number of Years.
Carter Was Shot to Death
in Office March "a.

Washington Monday, March "a,
between the hours of l and 3 pm,
Mr.. Carter, a quiet, peaceable young
planter, was horribly murdered in his
home on Homoehitto plantation near
Mayersville, in lssaquena county, Miss,
by his yard man, Lem Davis. 1t is be-
lieved that the negro was in hiding in
the room when Mr.. Carter came in and
when Mr.. Carter sat dow to his desk
the assassin fired upon him, the load
striking him under the left eye, ranged
to the brain. There was a pool OF blood
under the chair in which he was sit
ting, but Mr.. Carter was found on the
floor near the chair and with one foot
hung over it. He was discovered in
this condition by friends who broke
into the room through a fastened win
dow, the murderer having locked the
windows and the door after ro5blng
the body of watch and money.
Davis was arrested by the sheriff at
Lake Providence. who was on the look
out for him. j. r. Mctiraw, deputy
sheriff. brought the prisoner over on
the IL O'clock ftrryhoat Tuesday morn
ing. but when he had proceeded a lew
miles towards Mdyer,,ille with him he
was o|verpoVercI by a body of men. The
murderer wa. quietly strung up to a
pecan tree after having admitted the
killing. This Il, the fourth shooting OF
q white man by negroes in lssaquena
county within the last few months, and
the third murdered from the bullet of u
black assassin. One negro was sent W
for life at the hast term OF court. There
are now two in jail awaiting a specia
term of court, one out on bond and on,
was captured and placed in jail a few
days ago, all OF whom are connected
with the above mentioned crimes.
The lynching OF Lem Davis is the first
lynching IN %Issaquena for many years
as in the past citizens nave been will
ing to lei the law take its course. SOME
have expressed themselves by saying
that even in this case the assassin would
have been allowed a trial il they haC
been assured of a speedy one, but they
were afraid that some Jealous lawyer
might discover some faroff witnesse'
or something to delay justice. 1t :.
generally rumored and believed that th'
Jaws delay and the successful acqur
ting OF negroes who have committee
these crimes in the past, and the fiend
ish way in which Mr.. Carter was muir
dered, were the causes of the lynchin;

Reassures the People.

GENERALIZATION. c. Il. Smith, presi-
dent OF the Mississippi Levee Board, has
donned his working clothes for the high
water fight and, after going into the
situation thoroughly, issued a statement
to the effect that the gravity OF the sit
uation was understood and appreciated
and every effort would be made to hold
back the waters. The statement says;
1T would take months OF time and
hundreds OF thousands of dollars to make
the levee line what would be called safe
against such a food, but, while the stu
alton is grave, the outlook is not hope
less. With continued clear weather, tn,
fight will be a quick one and the dry
condition OF the levees will be a stronl
factor in our favor.

will be a further rise of two or three
feet and that the entire levee will be

The levee was dynamited by a com

the Illinois militia in charge of the
situation there. The cut was made on
the lower side, so that the water enter
ing was ~backwater and comparatively
little damage was done to the earth

As soon as the water in the levee had
equalled the stage of the Ohio outside,
the militia permitted the telephone girls,
and the citizens committee, consisting,
largely of business men, to enter. A
