The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1913-08-27

SRBerbroOke, Que, Aug. A1-No" York State was ruled out of court here, today. in a dramatic preliminary islzirnnish with lawyers for Harry A. Thaw, the Matteawan fugitive fighting deportation Superior Judge GIobensky, hearing arguments of ThaW's counsel on a motion to discontinue a writ | of llaheas corpus, absolutely refused to entertain the objection of Hector Ver-N ret, representing New York. This was ereeted with 8 wild outbuFst of cheer ing by a thousand Canadian specta- tors
 Thaw, rising, bowed in acEnowIedg- ment-
 aHooray for the British flag! Hooray for Harry ThavvI'' sIafielzed men and women standing on chairs waving IbandEkerchiefs, parasols and hats.
 Thaw bowed three times like al stage star taking curtain call before a sympathetic audience. His cheeks were flushed, his big brown eyes isllone with a strRnge light but he Lnaintaaned his conpOsure. Men and women, struggling forward over chairs and benches to shake his hand, swept aside coErt attendants ana uniformed DonAni0n police and swaEIned mp to she judges bench.
 But Talaw eEuded them and slipped into an ante-room used as press head quarters. Ten minutes later, he was ,Dn his way back to the Sherbrooke jail & great crowd the courthouse steps cheered again as Inc descended.
 Arguments in the matter of diScon- stinuing the habeas corpus writ were but over until o'clock, this after noon, there being some doubt in the courts mind as to whether counsel for T71aW proposed to proceed under the civil or criminal code.
 New Yorks objections to having the writ vacated are due to the fact that euch action might mean Thaw'S in dednite detention in jail until the blocking of deportation. MT Verret after stating that New York wished Ito oppose the move, introduced Sam FueI Jacobs, chief counsel for the New York interests. He explained that Technically he represented the man rxvho made the arrest, who might be Hialble to damages should ThaW's de- fentfon be proved unwarranted. His lordship said he would 'fcons1der'' a protest of this kind but that argu- nSent from a second party was out of HlaSe in that it was an exparte pro- tceedfRg. He pointed out, moreover, fhat ie was unusual for a party who had been instrumental in placing a man in jail to seek his release. | Here the crowds outburst and the ' adjournment came.
 When the New York lawyers and fheir Canadian lawyers got back their Hheir feet-they gathered in their ho- kel-
 They brushed aside the reporters and carefully dictated this statement:
 We, who represent here the state pf New York, are entirely unwilling tc comment on the scene that occurred en one of His N1ajesty's courts, today Fhe relations between the bar of the United States and the courts of the Dominion of Canada are most friend By and cordial and we realize keenl3 Hhe sense of humiliati ton experienced Boy our brethren in Canada who are aSsfEting us MT. Jacobs, who is as eoc'ated with us, is present and W. would prefer not to say anything witt ceference to the occurrence of the k1crning.''
 Mir. Jerome paused and turned to ward MT Jacobs MT. Jacobs hesitat ed- There is nothing I can say,'' h. Etammered- I will say though, tha this is the first instance to my knowl edge where such an outburst in an! rf our courts was not followed by thu Immediate clearing of the court''
 What will happen?'' Jerome wa. Rsked- eff this writ of discontinuanc, Rs sustained, this afternoon. Thaw eoei back to jail indef1nitely?''
 'I hardly think,'' replied Jerome p'that there is any part of His Majes Hy's Dominion so destitute of laws al 10 hold in prison criminal and luna Aic under the circumstances in whicl Hhaw is held. Therefore, I believ, Harry Thaw will go back to Nev Hork.'
