THAW CASE TO GO
TO HIGHEST COURT
Decision on Habeas Corpus
Plea Delayed By Concord
Judge Today.

CONCORD. N. H. Feb. 21.-The Harry
X. Thaw habeas corpus hearing closed
today Decisions will not be given for
at least twenty days. as that time has
been granted attorneys to file additional
briefs.
A pro forma" decision. which will
leave the case essentially unchanged
and will merely shift the responsibility
of decisions to the United States Su-
preme Court. is expected.
On the way to the court today. Thaw.

movie man who is making a thriller
of the fight for liberty. 1t developed
today that granting the photographer
permission to work in the court room
yesterday, Judge Aldrich posed in his
office with United States Marshal Mute
at his side.
Thaw attorneys today professed to be
satisfied with the prospect of a Supreme
Court decision in the case. although
they had hoped that Thaw would be
admitted to bail. pending higher court
decision. 1t seemed more than likely to-
dav that the present Federal hearing
will serve only to clear New Hampshire
courts of the Thaw case. and will ad-
vance the fight for freedom little. Even
the question of bail will probably be
passed on to the higher court.
Thaw learned today of the probability
of his coming into 100000 through a
court victory in Pittsburgh his home

two months in Allegheny county. Thaw

Texans Protest Cruelty
To Foreigners in Mexico

Ell PASO, Feb. 21.-Resolutions Of pre- :
test against the cruel and violent
treatment which has been accorded for
eigners'' in Mexico for the last threc
years, were adopted at 4 mass meeting
at the FL Paso opera house last night.
The resolutions were the outcome of the
execution of William S. Benton, the
British subject. and We're telegraphed
to President Wilson, Secretary Bryan
and several members of Congress.
Former Governor Curry, of New
Mexico. presided and Prof. w. H. Sea-
mon, formerly of Chihuahua; Richard
Dudley, a former construction cont-ac-
tor in Mexico. and Charles F. Hunt. L
live stock man, were on the committee
of resolutions.
Frequent cheering and wild applause
interrupted the reading of the resolu-
tionS.
Among other things the resolutions
voiced a protest aasinst the barbarous
treatment of foreigners eXemplified in
The summary execution of Benton. The
facts of Benton's execution are set
forth and it is charged that the State
Department suppressed facts concerning
the true conditions in Mexico. to mis-
lead American people, and form public
opinion for political purposes, in sup
port of "a policy that is ruinous to all
foreign interests in Mexico and the
peOpie
The State Department also was
charged with wilfullv creating public
Cpinion to the effect that not one Amer
lean had been killed solely on account
of his nationality, an opinion the reso-
luton calls absolutely false
Another section said that, while the
Stale Department officially declared it
would hold Mexican leaders responsible
for outraees on American citizens, it

TO commit all kinds of outrages against

And with EnCland refusing to
recognize Villa. and the United States
refusing to recognize Huerta, officials
here see little 10 hope for in the re-
suits Of the revolution.
Ey this one rash act Villa has black
ened the cause of the revolution in
the eyes of the outside world. and
has, it would seem. made Intervention
by the United states sooner or later
inevitable.
Thus far England has given but pas
siTe approval to the policy of the
United States. The effect on her for
cign office of Ecnt0n's death will soon
become apparent. At the White House
and State Department. officials in
touch with tine situation insist that
President Wilson will continue his
watchfuI waiting policy. and that he
is as strongly as ever opposed TO in
t,rvention.
But the situation is delicate, SO deli
cate indeed. that Secretary Bryan
has renewed his orders to subordi-
mates to refrain from discussing the
Mexican situation.

A Tionesta Cake For London Wedding.

Mrs. J. H. Der!ckson was engaged yes
terday in the pleasant task of baking a
huge wedding cake which goes to London
England, and will there figure in the
festivities attending the marriage of an
accomplished American girl to worthy
young Hollsnder, who Is engaged with an
extensive Dutch banking institution In
London. The names OF the affisnced are
Miss Rachel Dunn, daughter OF Mrs. Kate
G. Dunn, and Mr.. Bernhardt Roelvink,
and the wedding day is set for the middle
of April. 1t was Mrs. Derickson who in
spirit OF neighborly kindness, baked
the elegant wedding cake that added
sweetness 10 the pretty ceremony that
united DR.. Thomas Dunn and Miss Kate
Cobb in marriage in Tionesta more than
a quarter century ago, and the taste of
that splendid Wand has doubtless ever re.
NAMED as a sweet memory with the
young bride OF that day; hence the order
from over the ocean for a duplicate of it
for her daughters wedding. Mrs. Dunn
and her daughter haye been abroad for a
number of years, where Miss Dunn's
musical tslents have brought her into
great favor, and have frequently received
flatteriug comment by eminent critics in
London's press. The young couple will
continue their residence in the great
metropolis after their wedding, and since
it is pure love match, and not a titled
nobility affair, we are sure all the Tio-
nesta friends of Mrs. Dunn and her
charming daughter will join the REPUB-
LICAN in extending congratulations and
best wishes on this happy occasion.

WHAT WAR: MOVES MEAN 3.
BY j. w. 7. Mason, Former European
Manager of the United Press.
New York, Sept. g III a. ~
The fall of Maubeuge, reported from
Berlin, indicates what traps en-
trenched camps are and testifies to
the wisdom of the allies in leaving
the defenses at La Fere, Laon and
Rheims unguarded when it became
necessary for the first army to re-
treat.
Maubeuge is one of the strongest
fortified centers in France, guarded
by outer and inner rings of detached
forts. It's fate is what the Germans
hoped to inflict upon the allies since
the war began. On a small scale, it
is a reproduction of the grand climax
aimed at by the German strategy.
Maubeuge was not voluntarily de-
Tended by the allies. During the re-
treat from Belgium part of the En-
glish expedition and part of the
French force were cut off from the
main body. They had to take refuge
in Maubeuge or surrender. And so
they sought the protection of the
great entrenched capital on the Sam
bre. It has required about a fort
night for Germany's new and UMPIRE
cedentedly powerful siege guns to
compel capitulation.
Maubeuge's surrender must mean
that the German guns have battered
the defenses to a pulp. A greatly SUI
perior force of the enemy must have
been waiting outside to destroy the
defending refugees within. The loss
to the French army, if the German
figures are correct, amounts to an
army corps. This goes some way to-,
ward reducing the inequality of
losses caused by the greater German
casualties list during the advance to
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1914-09-09

llans, as whole nation, to fight on.
1 speak of vast losses. An officer
with whom l talked while en- route
from Berlin to Rotterdam told me of
his own experience. He was one of
1000 men on the eastern frontier
They saw a detachment of Russians
ahead. The German forces went into
battle singing and confident although
the Russian columns numbered 49,
900. Of that German force of 1000
just fifty survived. None surrendered.
Russia's deceit is believed by Ger
mans to have been the immediate
cause of the war. At the time the
car was protesting that he wanted
peace, Berlin knew Russia was mo-
bilizing. Before Germany declared
war Russia had violated East Prus-
STA. Germany had to fight and she
will fight to sustain her national ex-
istence while a single German is left
to bear arms.
