THAW MAYBE FREED
THROUGH PEN TERM
Counsel May Advise Him to Plead
Guilty to Conspiracy as sane
Person and Get Year.
CASE IN THE SUPREME COURT
members Of Tribunal AFraign New
YORK Counsel for DragEsng
wealth OF Defendant
Into Argument.


WASHINGTON. Dec 12.-Extradition
Of Harry. X. Thaw from New Hampshire
to New York to answer an Indictment
for conspiracy to obstruct justice by
escaping from Matteawan insane asylum
was taken under consideration today by
the supreme court after listening to oral
arguments.
The case came up on appeal from Jus
tice Aldrich's decision In the federal dis
trict court os New Hampshire. reieas-
ing Thaw in habeas corpus proceedings
from extraditon.
Question after question, propounded by
members OF the court as to the soundness
OF contentious submitted by Thaws at
torneys and an arraignment by the lat
ter of counsel for the state Of New York
for Dragging into the case" Thaw's
wealth, were the features Of tho argu-
inent
! May Urge Guilty Plea.
Talk about the coure room after the
argument Indicated that should the court
reverse Judge Aldrich and permit extra
dition. Thaw might be advised TO plead
guilty to the charge Of conspiracy as a
sane person, with the idea OF gaining
I freedom by serving the maximum SEN
tencc OF one year for conspiracy.
! William Travers Jerome opened the
argument with the declaration that Thaw
was fugitive from justice, charged with
committing a crime in New York. Frank
lin Kennedy. deputy attorney general OF
New York, argued at length that the
law under which Thaw was committed
to Matteawan after the killing OF stan
/ ford White was constitutional.
Knox Questioned.
Chief Justice White asked his first
question when Philander c. Knox, former
secretary OF state, argued that only
those who lai committed crime could be
extradited. and the state Of New York
was preoluded from setting up a con-
tention that Thaw had committed a
crime by five decisions of its courts that
he was insane. The chief justice sug-
gested that man might be insane one
day and declared sane the next. To this
Mr. Knox replied that the presumption
was that Thaw remained insane.
William A. stone, former governor OF
Pennsylvania, was interrogates closely
by most OF tho members OF the bench
durpg his argument that the indictment
OF Thaw for conspiracy was not valid.
and therefore no crime was charged In
IT,. His position was that the indictment
stated rhaw was insane and therefore
on its face it showed he could not com
nit a crime.
Does the Indictment state that Thaw
is insane?F Justice McKenna inquired.
Was in Asylum. f
4 IT says he was in an insane asylum. :"
Mr. Stone answered
Well IL Thaw's automobile had
broken down on his journey could he
have been indicted for stealing another
oneY" the justice insisted.
Not If the indictment set out he was

UNIVERSITY ALUMNI TO MEET
Gathering i'm Columbia on Founders
Day Will be Interesting Event.

Columbia, Jan. Cone of the most
which will be celebrated at the Uni
versity of South Carolina on January
Is, will be the meeting of the general
Alumni Association. These annual
meetings are looked forward to with
interest not only because they af-
ford opportunities for the renewal of
old friendships, but because of the
substantial work which the alumni
are doing for education. The alumni
loan fund now amounts to more than
$4,000 and is being used for the
aid OF large number of young men
who are seeking an education.
The following circular letter has
been sent out to the alumni
Dear Fellow Alumnus. The annual

citation of the University of South Car
olina is called for Thursday, January

brated with appropriate exercises.
In the afternoon Prof. Charles r.
Raper, Of the University of North
Carolina, will speak and in the even
ing an address will be delivered by
President George II. Deny, Of the
University of Alabama. Both Of these
men have attained to eminence in
their respective fields and will deliv
er notable addresses. The success Of
the day will depend largely up
on the attendance of the alumni. VIII
you not make il q point to be pres
ent and thus show your loyalty to
your alma mater?
If local chapter has not already
been organized in your county, will
you not at once get in touch with 9TH
er alumni from your county, organize
and send as many representatives as
possible to the general meeting on the
18th? A number Of counties have al
ready held enthusiastic meetings, and
feel sure that yours will fall in line
IL you will only bring the matter to
the attention Of your fellow alumni.
The University has been making
rapid progress in the last few years,
but if it is to fully realize the posi-
bilites Of its services to the State the
alumni must rally enthusiastically to
irs support. The annual meetings Of
the Alumni Association have proved
great help and inspiration to those
who are actively concerned with di-
recting the affairs Of the institution,
and 1t is hoped that you will lend your
assistance in making this meeting one
Of the best yet held.
Cordially yours,
