I intgen beginning April 2, premises te
 prove of considerable interest. as there are a number ef important matters to l be considered. One of the matters l likely to be taken up Is the disposition l of the question of the participation 1 of the older members in the fund ac- l cuznulated prior to Jan. 1892. 1 on which date the new rates went in- 1 about $S00,009, and 1t has been the | contention of the older members that 1 the proceeds of this fund each year should be applied to the reduction of heir assessm ents.
 It is expected a considerable amount of money will also be set aside at thls
 meeting to add to the permanent fund of the order which already amounts
 to some $4,000,eo0. The reports to be made at this meeting of the national directors will show the order to be in 8 very hourishing condition. with a considerable increase in the member ship. It is probable reports will be
 made regarding establishing the order
 in several new countries where 1t IS
 desired to have councils organized

LONG FIGHT FOR
FREEDOM LOST
by THAW
New Hampshire Governor Honors
New York Requisition-Ha-
beas Corpus Pending.

CONCORD. n. H, Nov. 8.-Gov-
dered the extradition of Harry K.
Thaw to New York in response to
requisition papers charging him with
the crime Of conspiracy.
The decision of the Governor was
announced at 11:05 a. m 1t was
written, and copies were handed to
the Thaw lawyers, to Bernard l. ia
cobs, representing w. T, Jerome. AMI
to the newspa per men.
Governor Felker refused TO COM
ment on hfs action beyond referring
inquirers to the written decision. This
decision designates Sheriff Hornbeck,
OF Duchess County, to take Thaw
back to New York. Sheriff Horn
beck was named in the requisition
pa pers nled by william T. Jerome.
The decision handed down to-day
by Governor Felker Ioes not mean
that Thaw will be returned immedi
ately to Matteawan, from which ne
escaped on August II. He has pend
ing In the United States District
Court a petition for a writ of habeas
corpus. 1t is improbable that hear
ing will be held for at least three
weeks.
The extradition order was granted
in response to requisition papers from
Governor Glynn of New York, fled
by Jerome.
Ignores Merits Of Case.
Governor Felker in his decision
bases the extradition order on a writ
ten opinion from Attorney General
futile. The Governors decision is
strictly in accord with interstate
comfy. Governor Felker ignored all
questions of New York's good faith
which had been attacked by the Thaw
counsel He discussed simply the
question of the form of the papers
and their validity.
Thaw was apparently not disturbed
by the blow to his chances. He IS
sued the following statement:
1T has been my opinion that Gov
ernor Felker would order the extra
dition. The people Of Concord thought
so, and I was naturally moved by
their belief.
at is also my impression that Gov
ernor Felker did what he believed 20
be right / think he merely consid
cred whether the documents were
technically correct and that he dl1
not inquire into the motive when in
spires the persecution Of me.
81 am not disheartened. My strong
courts"
Await Jerome's Moves.
The Thaw lawyers will wait now
for Jerome to make the next move.
Jerome is to ask that the writ of
habeas corpus which brings Thaw
into the Federal courts be dismissed.
The Thaw counsel will Immediately
file a new or amended habeas corpus
petition. This petition may come up
for hearing probably the latter part
of next week in Portsmouth, n. H.,
where the Federal Court is now sit
ting, probably before Judge Aldrich
Both sides have agreed that there
shall be no unreasonable delay in the
hearing. Both sides have likewise
agreed that the United States Circuit
Court of Appeals has no jurisdiction
In the case.
After agreement between counsel
Governor Felker ordered Sheriff Hol-
man A. Drew not to seize Thaw until
November II. This gives the lawyers
on both side until then to prepare
| their cases for the Federal Court.
