Insane Man A Suicide.

Columbia, Jan. 13.-James F.
White, a patient at the State hospital
for the insane, committed suicide at
the hospital tonight by hanging him
self to the bars of his room by means
OF rope which he made by tearing a
sheet into strips and tying them to-
gether. White tied one end Of the
handmade rope to the bars of his
cell, put the other around his neck
and then jumped from the bed on
which he was standing, death being
due to strangulation. He was from
Sumter county and was committed
to the hospital last April for a second
time. The remains will be taken to
Sumter tomorrow. Coroner Scott
after viewing the body, said no in
quest was necessary.

WILL APPLY FOR HIS RELEASE
ThaW VIII Ask for Bail in Federal
Court-Elated at Victory.

Concord, N. H, Jan. 12.-Harry K.
Thaw, elated by the report Of the fed
era! court commission that his release
on bail would not endanger public
safety, remained in his apartments
here today, receiving messages Of con-
gratulations and planning a series Of
visits within the State in the event
that Federal Judge Aldrich allows his
freedom under bond.
The next move in the case will be
filing by TlaW's counsel of the peti
ton asking that the amount Of bail
be fixed, and date for hearing will
be set by the court.
Thaw and his attorneys are pre-
pairing brief order by Judge Al
drich in the matter of extradition and
to which William Travers Jerome,
special deputy attorney general of
New York, will reply before the final
COuI ASdIl lAS LchSS p1dSS.
Several attorneys conversant with
federal court procedure agreed to-
day that Thaw, if released under
bond, would be immune in every part
of tie federal jurisdiction from ar
rest by State authorities in connection
with the murder of Stanford White
and his escape from Maateawan
pending final disposition Of the habeas
corpus proceedings in the federal
court.
An immediate hearing on the mat
ter of releasing Thaw on bail was
asked for in a petition fled in United
States district court today by Merrill
Shurtleff of Thaw's counsel. The peti-
ton also asks for futher time to pre-
pare Thaw's brief in the matter Of ex-
tradition
TIE brief of Attorney General Car
mody of New York on the matter of
Thaw's extradition was filed today.
Mr.. Carmody contended that the req
uest of New York for ThaW's extra
dition should have been granted and
that Thaw's test of the constitution
a1ity of his rights should have come
in an appeal from the decision Of the
court in New York in the event that
he was found guilty there on the |
charge Of conspiracy.

ADMIT SHOOTING.
Gurganous and Mrs. Hite Plead Gull
ty to the Shooting Of J. Milton
Hite.

Lexington, Jan. 13.-Walter E. Cur
ganous, tee young Southern Bell Tele-
phone Iineman, and Mrs. Ella Belle
Hite, charged with the shooting of J.
Milton Hite, a young business man OF
Batesburg, on the night Of December
s. last, today entered plea Of guilty
to the charge of assault and battery
with intent to kill and carrying con-
cealed weapons in the Lexington coun-
ty court Of general sessions. Judge
Spain passed sentence upon the pris-
oners
On Gurganous he laid sentence Of
six months at hard labor or a fine Of
1925. Ella Hite was sentenced to i'm
Drisonment "at such labor as she may
be able to perform for three months
and to pay a fine of 500, proviued
that the prison sentence should be sus-
pended upon the prisoner paying the
fine and leaving the State of South
Carolina and remaining away.
Pay Their Fines.
Both Gurganous and Mrs Hite paid
their fines promptly. Before sentence
was passed Col. J. Brooks Wingard Of
counsel for the defence, said: at is
agreed by the solicitor and counsel
for Mr.. Gurganous, that counsel shall
have the opportunity at this point in
behalf Of Mr. Gurganous to make a
short statement and to have the same
incorporated in the record OF. this
case Mr.. Gurganous is quite young
man engaged in the laudable business
OF earning an honest livelihood by his
own labors His present unfortunate
situation has impressed him as per-
haps nothing else could, the fact that
some time or other all men are or may
be subjected to influences that too
frequently cause lapse from the path
of uprightness and fight living. He
is conscious. even now, of not having
committed any legal wrong which
could justify or give rise to the Of
fense now pending against him. He
fully realizes the indiscretions of his
past associations; but he is willing to
enter this plea, and to meet this OBJ
legation rather than to enter into an
investigation which would disclose a
situation which might be construed by
some as bearing too hardly upon 9th
ers who are interested this case
and could result only in &oducing &
sense Of deep humiliation on the par
