THAW SAYS THAT NEW
YORK is SPENDING
TOO MUCH ON HIM

CoIebrook, n. H. Sept. 12-Sur-
rounded by 10 of the 20 special guards
sworn in by Chief of Police Kelley,
Harry K. Thaw was to be arraigned at
10 o'clock, today. before Police Judge
James T. Carr on complaint setting
forth that he was wanted by the state
of New York on a charge of conspir-
ing to defeat justice by escaping from
Aatteawan Asylum For the Criminal
Insane.
Thaw slept we'll during the second
night of his detention in the Monad-
mock House Four armed guards sat
lust outside his door throughout the
night and others paced about the cor
ridors and around the building. Talk
of plots and counterpIots to kidnap
him were still in the air, today, and
every time an automobile whiZzed
down the street the guards tightened
their grip on their automatic pistols.
While residents of Colebrook are
evincing great interest in the case they
have taken no open stand either for
OF against the fugitive.
ThaW, today, issued a formal state
ment summing up his case and Ia
nenting the fact that New York state
was spending so much money on him.
The statement follows:
Il think the people of my own state
would like to know by what warrant
of law or common sense the money
of the people of the state of New York
is being squandered like water, al
ready spending more thousands OS
dollars than are available to me in
these persistent and unscrupulous eff
forts to return me to Matteawan.
IF I am sane then certainly don
belong to Matteawan. If were in
sane then the laws of New York state
itself make it compulsory that 1 be
deported from New York to my home
state. Pennsylvania
The statutes of New York require
that insane persons from another state
who are sent to Matteawan or to any
other New York public asylum, not
charged with crime, (and I, as an ac-
quilted man, stand exactly in this
cIass) shall be reported to the state
board of deportation and prom pity
sent out of the state back to the state
of their residence
'SThe New York law is SO anxious
TO get rid of alleged insane persons
from another state that it provides
that doctors and nurses, if needed be
supplied to get rid Of them. The
United States courts have adjudicated
me a resident of Pittsburgh and reaf-
f1rmed this fact within three months.
Now why does any New York Of
fetal squander New York money to
return me? (Signed) H. K. Thaw."
The hearing was delayed by con-
ference between counsel for both sides
Each feared to make a move on the
theory that if the fugitive were re-
leased the situation would resolve it
self into physical struggle for Thaw's
person
Counsel for the fugitive agreed tc
waive the hearing here, provided
counsel for New York would consent
TO a hearing before Gov Felker or
rhe matter of his extradition warrant
with five days respite in order to give
time for suing out habeas corpus writs

faint recollection of having seen, in
my boyhood days, some one show
what he called the new cent" which

well, now" said Mr.. Thompson,
81 will tell you an interesting story
about the manner in which the coin
ing of these great copper cents was
abandoned and the little cent now
in general circulation was adopted in
place of them.
1.-The government made great deal
of money, or somebody did out of the
coinage of the copper cents. They
were intrinsically worth a good deal
less than their face value. My rec
objection is that they were legal ten
der up to five dollars. They were re-
deemable at sub-treasuries, but as
the sub treasures were few and far
between, and as an enormous amount
of these big copper cents were coined
and put into circulation, some of
them dating way back almost to the
beginning of the century, the result
was that millions of these cents were
in use
at used to be the custom Of store
keepers, especially the proprietors of
country stores, all over the country
to deposit their surplus of cents in
convenient nail kegs. They found
that their local banks did not like to
receive on deposit more than 500 of
these cents at time. The result was
that in the course of year every
storekeeper in the United States, who
was solvent, found that he had two
or three, perhaps more, nail kegs
filled with copper cents. So when the
amount was large enough he was
accustomed to ship them to New
York or other large financial centres
Newark evening star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1916, 1913-08-18

so that he could get silver specie in
exchange for them.
II was talking one day with a gem
tleman who kept a store IN eastern
Connecticut and he told me that 1t
was not unusual for him to send once
a year several kegs filled with big
copper cents to New York SO that ne
could get actual silver for them.
said to him that if the government
would coin a small cent, a little larger
In diameter than silver dime, every
body would just as willingly take the
small cent as the big one and an I'M
mense amount of inconvenience would
be ended.
He thought the idea a good one
and we put our heads together and
started a correspondence with view
to the abandonment of the coinage of
large copper cents and the substitu-
ton of the little ones for them About
that time copper was becoming more
valuable in industry, and that fact
appealed to the authorities.
1.-THE coinage of the new cent was
authorized, but | don't suppose that
one person in thousand realizes
that there is less than one-tenth of
per cent. of real value in the copper
which is contained in the small coin;
but the substitution of the small coin
for the big one was welcomed by peo-
pie all over the United States
