'THELEGALFIGH
FOR THAW IS
RESUMED
COUNSEL FOR new YORK STATE,
NEWLY ENGAGED COUNSEL FOR
THAW, AND AN ATTENDANT FROM
MATTEAWAN AWAIT DEVELOP
MENTS AT C0lEBROOK.
NO Definite PLANS
ARE DECIDED AS YET

Colebrook, n. H., Sept. 1.-THE
case of Harry X. Thaw, fugitive from
Matteawan, free agent for three hours
yesterday and prisoner today Of Sher-
Ut Drey, of Coos county, N. H., assum-
Cd this afternoon the familiar aspect
o. uncertainty and delay.
Counsel working for and against
bis return to the asylum agreed not to
arraign him before a police nagis-
t!ate until p. m. and then adjourn the
case until tomorrow. He is charged
With conspiring with others to bring
about his escape from Matteawan ard
it is on this charge that William I.
Jerome will seek his eXtradition.
Failing in this. Jerome will contend
tiat Thaw is insane and should be
turned over to an attendant from
Matteawan.
John Lanyon. private detective in
New York City who raced with Je-
rome all the way to Sherbrooke, Que
hec, after Thaws arrest in the domin-
ion arrived here this afternoon. To
meet emergencies he was probably
made special attendant from Mat
teawan and he is waiting opportunity
to get his hands on Thaw and start
with him direct for the New York
line.
Followed by crowds who neither
eheered nor hooted Thaw went about
the village today, accompanied by
Sheriff Drew, apparently contented
and hopeful Legal counsel yesterday
made plans for his release on writ OF
habeas corpus. but decided today that
10 lberate him with Lanyon and Je-
rome around was . dangerous move,
and held the matter in allegiance.
Thaw arose late this morning after
spending the night in a hotel room I'M
der guard Lawyers kept him up iiritii
late hour, laying plans to resist ex-
tradition to New York. In another
part of the hotel, William Travers Je-
rome deputized by the state to get the
fugitive back to Matteawan, conferred
with Thaws most recent captors,
Sherir Holman Drew, over the court
Procedure to be followed today.
At first merely detained, Thaw was
subsequently arrested on complaint
charging him with conspiracy in con-
nection with his escape from the asy-
Ilm and it was on this charge that he
vas to be arraigned today, before
Justice James r. Carr in police court.
New York was prepared to ask that
he be remanded pending the receipt
Of a requisition warrant.
The Thaw lawyers took preliminary
steps to swear out writ Of habeas
corpus in the prisoners behalf. 1t was
said this morning that they might
not press this further and that like
the Canadian counsel who tried hard
to keep Thaw in the Sherbrooke Jail,
they considered their client safer as a
prisoner than at large.

COMPERS TELLS
LOBBY HEARING
OF ACTIVITIES

Washington, d. c., Sept. 11.-Presi-
dent Gompers of the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor, today continued be-
fore the lobby committee his story
of the political and Legislative activi.
ties of the federation. Gompers said
since the congressional campaign of
1910, the federation's political activity
has not been systematic, but rather
sporadic. He declared he was oppos-
ed to Socialism.
I believe in doing something to
better things today--not tomorrow,
he said
Il came to the conclusion many
years ago that we should work for
the better evolution of society in
which we live and not for the downfall
of society"
Gompers testified that the final de-
termination on a policy of opposition
or support by the federation toward
congressional candidates was made
by himself, Vice President James A.
O'Connell and Secretary Frank Nor
rison. In few cases, he said, did that
committee go further than furnish
record of votes by the candidates on
bills affecting labor Exceptions were
made where men showed particular
ly hostility to such measures or par
ticular friendliness. Active participa-
ton in campaign, he said, was taken
by the federation only when 1t was
requested from labor leaders in
district.
Gompers denied that he had prom
ised to swing the labor vote of more
than 100000 to any one in the ma
tional campaign of 1908. He said he
could not and would not attempt to
deliver that vote.
mo official of the American Fedora
ton of Labor can command or order
anyone to do anything" he said. "They
may advise and suggest and recon-
mend, but that is all"

SULzER LOSES
IN COURTS
OF N. Y.
THE SUPREME COURT JUSTICE
RULES AGAINST IMPEACHED OF.
FICAL IN HABEAS CORPUS WRIT
TO COMPEL HONORING OF GOV.
ERNOR'S PARDON.
IMPEACHMENT IS A
JUDICIAL FUNCTION

Kingston, n. Y, Sept. 11.-Justice
Tiasbrouck of the supreme court of
the state, today decided that Governor
Sulzer was regularly impeached and
while awaiting impeachment trial was
divested of the right to exercise his
executive functions, including the
power to pardon.
The question of the legality of Sui
zer's Impeachment came before JUS
tice Hasbrouck in connection with ha-
beas corpus proceedings brought to
compel the New York City authorities
to honor Governor Suffers pardon of
Joseph G. Robin, the banker convict
He decided that Robins pardon was
invalid, quashed the writ and sent
Robin back to prison at Blackwell's
island,
Attorneys representing Sulzer and
Robin had argued that the impeach-
ment was illegal because voted by the
assembly at a special session which
was not called expressly to decide that
question The court refused to sus-
tain this contention. The decision up
held the argument of the New York
corporation counsel, who maintained
that the assembly when it impeached
acted in judicial and not legisla-
tive capacity and was properly in ses
sion
The assembly voted to impeach Gov
ernor Sulzer early on the morning OF
August 13. Although it was reported
Immediately that the governor would
seek to overturn the assembly's ac-
FIasbrouck's decision today was the
first ruling made by any court on the
legality of the impeachment
Arguments on the validity of the
writ of habeas corpus were heard here
Monday. The questions raised were
first, whether Governor Sulzer was i'm
peached, and, second, whether he was
divested of his powers pending trial.
The subject of impeachment, says
Judge Hasbrouck, like the power of
legislative body to punish for con-
tempt, has different character from
Il subject requiring the action of both
branches of the Legislature and the
governor, in order that laws may be
enacted
'"'rhe power conferred on the as
sembly to impeach the governor is
judicial power. The power of i'm
peachment, therefore, cannot be par
ticipated in by the governor or senate,
and therefore does not constitute a
legislative subject

detail on features of the income tax.

$50 D. m. today for Cornish, N. H.,
the summer capital and though it has
not yet been determined how long he
will remain there, Senator Simmons,
and Representative Underwood said
there was no necessity for further
conference and that it was likely that
on his return here the bill would be
ready for his signature.
The tariff bill was sent by the
house today to conference, but not
without struggle, in which the Dem
ocrats found it necessary to make
special rule over the earnest objection
of Republicans and Progressives, who
disagree to the senate amendments.
The meeting of the conferees took
Place late today. 1t was announced
that the Democratic members of the
conference committee would meet
alone, excluding the Republicans until
they had agreed on all points in dis
pute between the senate and house,
and the Republican minority then will
be called in

ing house members of the conference
committee:

Washington. ID, C.. Sept. il.-The
constitutionality of the administra

was attacked by Representative Proty,
Republican, of Iowa in the house de-
bate today. His principal objection
was to the provision requiring nation

OF their capital and five per cent of
their deposits as capital for the
federal reserve banks. He made a
long argument that to force banks to

HEALTH NEEDED. ...BACk
TO NATURE SAYS DR..
Or. KELLOGG SAYS HUMAN RACE IS BE-
COMING INSANE, BIRTHS DECREkS-
ING AND MODERN SCIENCE IS SAVING
The WEAKLINGS.

Colorado Springs, Colo. Sept IL
Statistics purportine to show that the
human race gradually is becoming in
sane, and the prediction that the time
will come when there will be no more
births, were the features Of an adj
dress before the American Public
Health association here today by DR..
]. r. kellogg, of Battle creek Mich.
According to DR. Kellogg's view, the
birth rate is decreasing in manner
that ultimately will bring it to the
vanishing point The achievements of
modern science, the speaker declared,
are bringing about race degeneracy
by saving the weaklings.
"ro regain our lost estate, he add
ed. 1--WE should get back to nature.
We must cultivate health instead of
disease"
as it really impossible 20 get from
the public treasury sufficient funds for

renee WELLER, director of the depart
ment of improving social conditions OF
the Charity Organization society OF
New York City in his paper on "Secur-
ing Funds for Public Health Work, y
delivered this afternoon before the
sociological section of the American
public Health association.
In answering his own question Mr.
WELLER described campaign In New
,ork City which cost $3S5.96 and
which resulted in an actual increase
in the appropriation for the New York
city health department of S263,5oo.
This is equivalent, Mr. WELLER pointed
out, to the granting of fund of five
million dollars, the income of which
vas to be devoted to the prevention OF
tuberculosis Similar successful cam
raigns for an increased appropriation
.f $4,000 to the tenement house de-
rartment of New York City and a
y ore recent campaign for an appro-
ration of s414.000 for Bedford re-
formatory. were described by Mr..
WELLER. ..
THE moral of this plain tale from
the hills is that the public official
reeds a wicked partner said MI.
WELLER. Some one who will stand be.
lind him and back him up, and do it
all the time.
1T is entirely possible to get all the /,
