THAW REFUSED TO
ANSWER QUESTIONS
SULZER COMMITTEE STRUCK
a SNAG AND WERE FORCED TO
ABANDON EFFORTS.

Fishkill on the Hudson, n. Y, Feb
26.-Harry X. Thaw, slayer of Stan
ford White, refused today to testify
before Governor Suffers committee
of inquiry which is investigating an
alleged conspiracy to obtain Thaw's
release from the Matteawan Hospi-
tai. Thaw said he would answer
questions only if allowed to testify
in the same place and under the
same circumstances as other witness
es" and without pretense of insan-
ity." He said he had taken this po''
sition "on advice" but refused to
say who had advised him.
The committee came here from AL
bany today, after hearing John Mich
olson Anhut, New York lawyer, tes-
tify that he had received $4,000
fee from an agent Of Thaw to OBJ
tain his release. Ahnut also testified
concerning his relations with DR..
John w. Russell, superintendent OF
the Matteawan Hospital, denying the
lattcr's accusation that he had offer
ed the doctor a $4,000 bribe to aid
in securing Thaw's freedom and
making the counter charge that DR..
Russell had said he wouldn't do
onythinp for ThaW unless he got
money for it,"
John T. Norton, counsel for the
committee, had prepared a series OF
questions for Thaw to answer, which
he hoped would clear up some of the
contradictory evidence the inquiry
has elici.d. Thaw's refusal to an
swer thwarted this hope and the com
mittee returned to Albany tonight
uncertain as to what step should be
taken next.
Thaw was brought into the chapel
of the institution to give his testi-
ony. He was not sworn. AS soon
as he had given his name, without
waiting for further questions, he ex-
planned his position.

May | ask you from whom you

'1t is a confidential matter which,

The committee. confessing that 1t
was powerless to punish Thaw for
conduct, in view of the
fact that the witness already was in

RECOGNITION IS
HELD IN ABEYANCE
UP TO WOODROW WILSON TO
RECOGNIZE THE HUERTA AO-
MlNlsTRATIoN IN MEXICO.

Washington, Feb. 26.-Political rec
ognitiou of the provisional govern
ment of Mexico is not a matter re-
Quiring immediate consideration al
the hands Of the secretary of state,
and it was made practically certain
Wednesday that this is another sub
ject that will be left as a heritage
to the next administration.
In the opinion of state department
officials, the United States has no
interests in Mexico that will suffer
ty Withholding full recognition and
also necessary business can be dis
charged under the working arrange
ment Ambassador Wilson has set W.
This amounts to recognition of a de
facto condition. 1t in no wise com
mits the United States government to
on acknowledgment of the Huerta
government and that question must
be determined hereafter entirely up
on the basis of performance.
If President Huerta conducts his
government in regular constitutional
fairness, maintains undisputed pos
session of his capital and extends full
and ample protection to foreign life
and property in Mexico iorma, rocog-
milton will not be withheld. Because
some doubt exists on the latte pont,
there Is great deliberatlon exhibited
ir reaching a decision. The United
States government probably VIII be
strongly influenced in it's treatment of
this question by the extent of the
measures taken by the provisional
government of Mexico to have full
and fair election with the object =
installing a permanent constitutional
government. 1t is precisely such iii
omission on the part of the de faC'o

Texas Senators Satisfied.
In the course of a conference with
of the senate committee OH
foreign relations Wednesday, at which
Senators Culberson and Sheppard of
Texas were present, Secretary of War
Stimson and Major General Leonard
Wood gave assurances of such dis
position of troops along the Texas
frontier as will insure protection Of
that section. They said seven regi-
ments would be placed along the
Mexican border of Texas.
They explained that the removal
to Galveston of detachments from
FL ?aso and other Rio Grande points
had been rendered necessary by the
crisis in Mexico City With the ac
cession of General Huerta to the
presidential chair, they 7aid it had
looked for a time as if active inter
vention might be necessary and with
this possible end in view, it became
desirable to get as large force as
possible to the nearest point of en-
barkation quickly. On this account
the nearby garrisons were rushed to
that place. Now that the critical
time has been passed, they expected
that time could be taken to bring
troops from a greater distance to Gal
weston. This would be done and the
two officials expressed confidence
that there soon would be no reason
for complaints. The Texas senators
