dozens of officers have searched Port

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 20.-Wom-

striking feature during the closing
hours of the arguments to the jury in
the trial of Maury Diggs on white

fore tonight.

Tense.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.-A strong
indication that John Lind, personal
representative of President Wilson al
Mexico City, will succeed in the mis-
sion of peace is seen in the receipt OF
the 1000 word installment of Presi-
dent Huerta's reply which finds his
representations. 1t will take all day
to decipher the dispatch but it is al
ready known that time is asked to con-
slider the presidents propositions.
Sparring for Time.
He says he is greatly interested and
is anxious for additional information.
The wording of the reply is said to
indicate that Huerta is seeking bet
ter terms but at the same time is keep
ing the negotiations in progress un-
til he decides whether or not he will
resign the presidency.
Confer With Bacon.
Owing to Huerta's latest communic-
alton, the president has arranged to-
day for conference with Chairman
Bacon, of the senate foreign relations
committee. Under the circumstances
he wishes to emphasize his decision
that there will be no removal of the

GREAT BATTLE AGAINST DEPORTATION is NOW
BEING ARRANGED.
EXPERT ATTORNEYS ENGAGED
Thaw Says He Can Prove he is Not Insane And
Never Was-Seems Happy And Contented
In His Cell.
By John Nevin
(For the United Press)


SHERBROOKE, Que, Aug. 2O.-Geo.
Carnegie, brother-in-law Of Harry
X. Thaw, is enrOute here from New
York with Mrs. Carnegie and it Is
understood the arrival of Mr.. Carnegie
will mark the opening Of one Of the
greatest fights against deportation
and extraditiOn ever chrOnicled.
Mr.. Carnegie has retained Charles
White, the immigration law expert, as
chief counsel to make the fight in case
of decision to deport Thaw. Owing
to the decision of the Canadian I'm
migration officials Mssrs. Williams
and Reynolds to deport Thaw, the lat
ter will soon be released. Thaw's at
torneys prefer that he shall remain
temporarily in his cell, in the mean
time preparing to secure an injunction
to prevent deportation.
Gets First Round.
Thaw won the first point here late
today in the fight to take him back
to Matteawan, when instead of being
turned loose for deportation to Am
erican soil by the Canadian immigra-
ton authorities, he is insured safety
and shelter in Jail here tonight at
least Judge Globensky granted pre-
liminary order of habeaus corpus ma
king it returnable tomorrow morning |
at 10 o'clock.
He Is Comfortable.
Thaw is most comfortable in his |
cell at the prison hospital He de-
clared himself cheerful and expressed |
the conviction that he would never
return to Matteawan as he says he |
can easily demonstrate he is not and |
never has been insane. Experts say
the fight to depot Thaw or gain his
freedom will probably last two weeks.
VIII be Released.
SHERBROOKE, Que, Aug. 20
Harry Thaw, the escaped madman
from Matteawan asylum in New York
who was captured at Coaticooke yes
terday will be released today because
his commitment here is irrigulaf. He
will be Immediately rearrested how
ever, and surrendered to the immigra-
ton authorities, then unless he pro-
duces his ticket from Detroit, which
he claims to have, he will be depOrted
over the same route over which he
entered Canada.
That will take Thaw back to New
Hampshire and not New York state
and then the battle for extradition to
New York will still have to be fought
out in the New Hampshire courts.
Attendants ExOnerated.

These figures can easily be verified,
he says, not only by reference to
sworn reports to the interstate COM
merce commission, but to the Idaho
tax commission and the Idaho state
board of equalization as well, and the
proof is simple. After having ascer-
tanned the gross income from all
sources, the operating expenses as
we'll as taxes, interest and other fixed
charges should then be deducted, and
unfortunately in his case, he says, this
shows a considerable deficit.
The statement from Mr.. Reynolds
is confirmed by Arthur ]. Shaw, tax
commissioner for the Spokane Inter-
national railroad company. who repre-
sents a road which is essentially an
Idaho property, having 1875 miles in
the state of Washington, 1928 miles in
Idaho and a branch Incorporated un-
der the name of Coeur dAlene-Pend
d'Oreille, which has 20.6 miles, COM
mencing at Couer d'Alene and ending
at Bay View, in Idaho.

charges from the gross reseipts, .
felt of$431 1886 was sustained.
These facts are also true concern
ing the operations of the Spokane &
Inland Empire railraod company, the
electric road which operates to Occur
d'Alene and Moscow. Their actual re'
ceipts and expenditures, according to
w. G. Davidson, secretary of the COM
pany, shows that for the calendar
years from 1910 to 1914 inclusive, they
have sustained loss of $107, ,722.69 in
the state of Idaho.
w. R. Mozier of the Pacific & Idaho
Northern railroad, in referring to
statement, shows that after giving
credit for all receipts from all sources,
the actual expenditure for operation,
interest, taxes and other fixed charges
exceed the income by s314,764.71.
