His Speech Against
Suffrage.
MAYOR CANT ANALYZE

Surprised That His Carnegie Hall
Remarks Were Thought
Antagonistic.

Man is the coy, the timid. the gentle
the delicate sex Mrs. Harriet Stanton
Batch, head OF the Women's Political
for Mayor Mitchell and the rest OF the
sex at suffrage tea attended by many
women and dozen men-mostly W. J.
L. husbands-at the downtown Demon
ico's yesterday. The tea WAS move In
the unions campaign TO capture the
financial district.
One man there who was not suffrage
husband was the father Of Miss Alice
Chittenden. president OF the New YORK
State Association Opposed to Woman
Suffrage. He listened attentively to the
speeches and accepted cup of tea AND
some cake.
Mrs. Blatch. after congratulating sydney

Tomkins. Henry Wise Miller, Winthrop
Burr. Judge Guy. Ernest Stevens, Cap
tain j. w Miller and the other men there
on having overcome their timidity, warn
ing them that they would he marked
men on Wall st henceforth. gave an IN
censored account OF her feelings about
the Mayors speech at the W. p. L. Car
negie Hall meeting Saturday night. IL
Mrs. Batch had read Mr.. Mitchers
pointed remarks Of yesterday on suhra'
gette courtesy. apropos OF her retort to
him Saturday night evidently she didn
care a bit.
During the first of the evening | fei'
quite motherly toward Mr.. Mitchell she
said. Realizing that woman is the
tough and hardy sex, l felt when ne
came on the platform, looking quite ILL.,
as if | wanted to lay my hand on MS
head and say. My dear young boy, you
have a great deal 10 learn And when ne
had made his speech. | said 10 myself:
What has happened is this: | know
the Mayor is going 20 talk at an anu
meeting soon. and he has just mixed w
the speeches-given the anti one here
and left our nice little speech at home
What changed my motherly feeling
was the discovery that Immediately
after leaving the platform, Mr.. Mitchell
met several reporters and gave them o
stenographic report of the same anti-suf-
frage speech.
well, I'm afraid our poor. timid
Mayor will feel sorry in 1916 for his words
OF May q 1914. When he's running
what office is he TO run for, Governor or
President?-hell meet that little chicken
coming home to roost. The women Will
see 10 that
Mrs. Blatch poked much fun at MI
MitcheTs statement that when women
wanted the ballot they would get IT, de-
claring that the situation in his own fam
lily proved the worthlessness of woman
influence over man. Mrs. Mitchell Is
suffragist and wants TO vote, and she
can't convert her husband! exclaimed
the head Of the w. T. L.
Mayor Mitchell said yesterday morning
that he didn't understand how his Car
nee1e Hall remarks could be construed as
against suffrage, and declared that ne
couldn't analyze the brains of women
If he had been at Delmonico's IN the az
ternoon he would have found small com
fort. Most of the women there resented
his speech, members of the union say
ing that he wasn't asked TO speak, any
how. but only TO welcome the sufragists
and offer them the freedom Of the city.

The United Catholic Works. an organi-
cation representing most Of the chart
table. social. philanthroplc and educa-
tional Catholic societies, gave the first
performance Of The Shepherd King" last
night at the Garden Theatre. This Bibli-
cal play. written by and produced many
times, with Wright Lorimer in the prin-
cipal role, has been chosen for series Of
presentations lasting two weeks. as a
means Of raising funds, in answer TO the
call of Cardinal Farley, for the needs OF
the poor.
The Emmett Corrigan producing COM
pany is responsible for the staging Of the
play and the organization Of the cast, and
under the direction of MIR. Corrigan the
whole was admirably carried out.
Beginning with the scene in the hills
at the house of Jesse. where Jonathan
make music for the King. the settings
were equally elaborate and impressive.
Perhaps the most dramatic was the sum-
moning Of David. now a triumphant war
rior 10 the King and the denunciation
of Saul, amid the lightning and thunder.
William Farnum made striking figure
as David. and played with deal of
spirit and fire throughout. His voice. al
ways resonant and forceful. has never
served him better. however, than In his
gentle. almost inspired. reading Of the
9sd Psalm. This little incident, one felt
quite certain, made the greatest impress
sion upon his hearers. The rest of the
cast gave interesting performances.
There were many well known people, rep
resenting the various Catholic societies,
among the audience last night. and the
United Catholic Works is undoubtedly
well assured OF patronage during the re-
mainder OF the run at the Garden
Theatre.

FINAL BRIEF ON BEHALF
OF HARRY THAW FILED
Document Contends the Prisoner
Cannot Legally Be
Extradited.

CONCORD, n. H, March 27.-The final
brief en- behalf Of Harry X. Thaw, in
his petition for a writ of habeas corpus
and for admission to bail pending de-
cision on the matter of extradition, was
filed today In the United States district
court by counsel.
The document lays stress upon the
claim that the statute under which Thaw
was originally committed to the insane
asylum at Matteawan. n. Y, is unconsti-
tutional and therefore it was not a crime
for him to escape from custody; that an
insane person cannot commit crime,
and accordingly cannot be extradited on
2 charge OF committing a crime; that
Thaw's sanity or insanity must be de-
cided before it can be determined that
there is jurisdiction to eXtradite him, and
that he is not a fugitive from justice
= thin the meaning of the federal Con-
st:jution. AS to bail, counsel maintains
.iat bail in misdemeanor case is a
matte Of right. The brief concludes:
- ne purpose of the state Of New York
H ing to return Thaw to Matteawan, it
IS making a misuse of the extraditior
saws 10 accomplish its end. Thaw should
be discharged"

Mai. Gen. A. W. Greedy Celebrates
His SEVENTEEN An

Polar Explorer, Soldier and Author
Spends Day Writing an Article
for Magazine.

Mai Gen. Adolphus W. Greedy L. s
A., retired. polar explorer. soldier ana
author. is today celebrating his seven
tieth birthday anniversary at his home
at 1914 G street northwest. He OBJ
served the day by working on maya
zine article he is writing.
q have gotten beyond having birth
dav celebrations" smiled Cen Greedy
II have promised this magazine story,
So l am hard at work on it
After becoming famous first a
soldier. then as an explorer. and then
as expert signalman, Gen. Greedy has
recently taken up the subject of better
housing for the poor. and with char
acteriStic visor has made himself an
authority on the subject.
First to Attain Army Distinction.
Gen. Greedy was born in Newburyport,
Mass. and enlisted in the Union army
at the outbreak of the civil war. Later
he reached the grade of brisadier gen
eral in the regular army. being the nrst
volunteer private soldier of the CIVIL
war to attain that distinction. Later
he became a major general. and was re-
tired in 1908. He was wounded three
times during the war.
After constructing 1000 miles of
military telegraph in Texas. Montana
and Dakota, Gen. Greedy was placed
iii command of a United States expe-
dition to establish one of a chain of
thirteen circumpolar stations. His
party reached SO degrees and "a min
utes which then made the farthest
north record. a.
New land north of Greenland was dis
covered and Grinnell land was crossed
to the polar sea. Two relief parties
failed to reach the party, which then
retreated to Cape Sabine, where all
but seven persisted by starvation. The
survivors were finally found by the
third relief expedition under Capt.
Winfield S. Schley.
Built Many Miles of Telegraph.
Under Gen. Greely's direction many
miles of telegraph lines were built in
Cuba, Porto Rico, the Philippines and
Alaska. The wireless section of 10S
miles of line in Alaska was the first
successful long-distance wireless
operated regularly as part of a COM
merCial system
AS if all these noteworthy achieve
rnents were not sufficient in the way of
excitement, 1t CHANGED that Gen. Greedy
was in executive command of the Pacific
division of the regular army, with head
quarters at San Francisco, when that
city was destroyed by an earthquake.
In 1911, when King George V of Eng
land was crowned, Gen. Greedy went to
London as one of the representatives
of the United States. He has written
large number of books, has received COLO
medals from the Royal Geographic So
ciety and the French Geographic Society,
and has been honored in many other
ways.
