At new Low POINT

New York, Aug. 27--stocks of the
New York, New Haven & Hartford
railroad. which had experienced de-
cline within the last year that has
made history in Wall street. broke
badly again today. The price fell
over points to 92 12, once more es-
tablishing low record price. Sub
sequently it rallied to 81 10.
l'he stock in former years sold as
high as 279, and it's pronounced weak
ness within recent months foreshad-
owed the reduction which was made
in the dividend rate from to 6 per
cent annually. Weakness Of the
stock today was due to estimates OF
the earnings for the last fiscal year,
based on such figures as have ap-
,peared. These figures indicated that
New Haven failed to earn the divi.
dends of 71-2 per cent paid in the
last fiscal year. having operated at a
deficit of more than $4,0O0,000.

Comments Bitterly on The
Defeat Of the Amendment
by Senator BristOw

Washington, Aug. 27.-In a verbal
tilt, marked by bitterness on both
sides, Senator LaFollette predicted
the retirement of Senator Gallinger
Of New Hampshire, the republican
leader, and others of "his type" be-
cause Of their alleged failure to ad-
just themselves to changing industri-

The colloquy followed Senator La
Follette's declaration that the repub-
lican senators who were voting
against a heavier income tax on big
incomes included many who always
opposed the establishment Of any in
come tax"
He commented upon the defeat Of
the Bristow amendment proposing a
graduated tax to 10 per cent on the
incomes of hundred thousand.
against which thirteen republicans
and the solid democrats voted.
Senator LaFollette recalled that he
predicted some vacant seats" six Or

Will Wild ] MAN TAKEN
BY THE OFFICERS

San Francisco, Aug. ga wild
man was captured in Marin county,
across the bay from San Francisco
by Sheriff Keating and a deputy, and
will be held at the county jail in San
Rafael pending an inquiry to deter
mine whether he is sane. Efforts to
converse with him Lave been unsuc-
cessful.
For nearly two years complaints
have been made by residents OF
Camp Taylor of a wild man that
frightened women and children and
pilfered food. Until yesterday Sher,
iff Heating had been unable to trace
him to his lair. The officers stumbled
upon his camp by accident and had
no difficulty in arresting him. His
few clothes, which were of American
make, were fashioned into the SEM
blance of a Turkish Oriental His
general appearance and swarthy skin
strengthened the. sheriff's guess that
the man was an Oriental.
The camp revealed curious com
bination of primitiveness and civiliz-
ed equipment. 1t was built around
three big. hollow trees, one. of which
was used for sleeping quarters. The
floor was carpeted with the skins Of
animals. In another tree. the wild
man had rigged up kitchen. The
third tree was the storehOuse and
contained quantities of nuts and dried
berries. Near was a potato patch,
carefully cultivated. ~

Immune for Present From
the Dominion Immlgfa-
ton Authorities
CoaDsel for New York State
Refused to be Party to
the Proceedings
wild Demonstration for the
Fugitive and for the
British Flag

Sherbrooke, Aug. 27-Harry X. Thaw
won three victories over the New
York state authorities and was lock-
ed tonight in jail, immune, for the
present, from the Dominion immigra-
ton authorities, after having receiv>
ed an ovation from the tOwnspeople
of SherbroOke that would done honor
to a prince.
So demonstratiye was the scene IN
the superior court room when at the
morning session Judge Globensky re-
fused to allow counsel representing
New York state to be party to the
sproce. iings, that the court subse'
auently warned the, spectators to
.aasasas~s,ssona. 5emenStsation e-.or,; s.it
would mean jail sentences for the
demonstratOra.
Speaking from the bench this az
ternoon the Judge said he never in
his experience as member OF the
bar and the bench had been the wit
ness to such "disgraceful scene" as
was carried out in the presence OF
the court attendants and four armed
Dominion police.
The police who stood immobile,
while the emotional women rushed to-
ward Thaw, srying three cheers for
Thaw, three cheers for the F'rtish
flag. We will give you justice, Harry.
Tonight Thaw's term of contine'
',,cnt wns inieterminate and the key to
the riddle still unfound. There was
a general exodus of those who rushed
hither after the fugitive's sensational
escape from Matteawan.
William Travers Jerome, former
prosecutor of ThaW. left tonight for
Quebec. accompanied by Deputy At
torney General Kennedy Of New York.
Either tonight or tomorrow will de.
part District ATTORNEY Conger and
Sheriff Hornbeck of Duchess county
and others, including sheriffs and de-
putty sheriffs Of Vermont and New
Hampshire, who were ready to string
themselves along the border to seize
Thaw in the event of deportation.
Jerome and Kennedy will confer
with the attorney general of the pro
vince at Quebec and upon this triI
largely depends later developments
in the case.
