THAW is HOPEFUL
OF next DECISION
Believes Governor Felker Will
Deny Extradition Request
From New York.

Concord, N. H. Sept. 1S.-Thaw sat
behind great heap of newspapers at
the breakfast table this morning read
ing Washington dispatches saying If
his case went to the United States
supreme court years might roll by be-
fore a decision was handed down.
1--WE can wait" said the fugitive,
"but l hope Governor Felker will de-
eide against extradition at once, so it
will not be necessary to press habeas
corpus writ in the federal courts"
Ten law clerks, retained by Thaw's
counsel, were busy today looking up
state and federal court rulings in t.e
matter of extraditing a person charg-
ed with crime, yet held legally insane.
so far We have been unable to find
any case where a person in Thaw's
position was ever extradited," said one
of the lawyers.
The same statement in substance
was made by Federal Judge Aldrich at
Littleton Tuesday in discussion with
William Travers Jerome.

PROCRESSIvES IN
FIGHT To FINISH
Hinebaugh of Illinois Holds Con.
ference With Roosevelt
on Party Policies.

Washington, D. c., Sept. 1S.-Return-
ing direct from conference with Co.
lionel Roosevelt, Representative Hine-
baugh of Illinois Yesterday landed a
knockout punch on those statesmen
who have been talking amalgamation
of the progressive and republican par
ties.
Mr.. Hinebaugh bore with him Colo
mel Roosevelt's official approval of the
organization of progressive congress
sional campaign committee effected on
Monday.
He brought a statement from the
colonel urging the progressives to
wage the hardest kind of a fight in
the First congressional district of West
Virginia, where an election is to be
held next month
He brought promise from the colo
mel that if he is in this country during
the congressional campaign next year
he will offer his time and services to
the newly created congressional cam
paign committee.
He brought also a promise of the
heartiest cooperation between the ma
tional and congressional progressive
committees.
If there is a single person in the Unit
ed States who has now a doubt as 10
the future course of the progressive
party and its chief, Representative
Hinebaugh is willing to remove that
doubt Immediately.
Mr.. Hinebaugh went to New York
| at the request of Colonel Roosevelt
and while there he conferred with the
| former president and other leaders OF
| the party. He did not know before
| leaving Washington what Colonel
Roosevelt would say about the organ,
ization of the progressive congression.
al campaign committee. He was high,
| ly elated to return with the full and
| hearty Endorsement OF that committee
by the former president.
| Mr. Roosevelt Representative
Hinebaugh said, was enthusiastic and
hopeful. He was immensely pleased
with the organization of the congress
sional campaign committee on Mon
day, and he urged us to plan for the
strongest sort of a fight in the con
/ gressional campaign of 1914. He urged
strong fight in West Virginia, where
| there is to be an election next month.
did Mr.. Roosevelt say anything
about his participation in the cam
paign next year," Mr.. Hinebaugh wa:
asked.
The progressive leader smiled and
answered:
HE said that if he is back by thai
time from his South American trip
he will be at our service. / most Ger
tainly believe he will be back.
What did he say about accepting
the republican nomination for presi
dent in 1852"
well, the colonel told us a little
story. He said a preacher saw 1
small boy with a stone in his hanC
sitting upon a high wall.
Don't you throw that stone at me,
the preacher said to the boy.
"T didn't intend to- the boy replied
! at would be ridiculous for the lolo
mel to say whether he would or woult
not accept the republican nomination
in 1916 II he only intimates that h.
will take it they would take pleasure
in turning him down, and il he de
clares that he viii not take it, the,
!. will say they never intended giving i
to him"
| Representative Hinebaugh toda

in It's Investigation.

Washington, ID. c., Sept 1S.-The in
terstate commerce commission today
directed that all owners of private car
lines carrying interstate commerce be
made defendants in the private car
line investigation begun more than q
year ago on a complaint that the oper

and discriminatory and that allow

cessive. 1t has been intimated that
information has already developed
that may warrant not only a positive
order by the commission against pri
vate bribes, but probably action by
the department of justice.
