THAW WOULD
NOT Be MENACE
TO THE PUBLIC
TWO OF HIS cUSToDlANS so DE-
CLARE AT A PUBLIC BEARING
BEFORE COMMISSION APPOINT
ED TO PASS UPON HIS SANITY.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Concord. n. H, Jan THE release
on bail OF Harry K. Thaw would not
menace public safety, two Of his Gus
todians declared today at a public
hearing before the commission appoint
ed by the federal court to pass upon
Thaw's mental condition and its rela-
ton to his liberation under bonds.
Holman A. Drew, sheriff Of Coos
county, and Clark d. Stevens of the
local police force. who have had Thaw
in charge since September, favored his
admission to bail. E. r. Mute, United
States marshal and third custodian,
who was unable TO attend today's hear
ing will appear tomorrow with Oliver
j. Pelrend, manager of the hotel where
Thaw has lived since he began his
fight to resist extradiJion to New York.
Thaw and his mother were present
with counsel. None OF the legal repre-
sentatives Of New York state was in
attendance when the hearing opened.
Sheriff Drew told of his close rela-
tions with Thaw during the period Of
his custodianship. During that time he
said, Thaw had not shown any tend
ency toward violence and had mani
tested no Ill temper, no irriGability and
lack Of self control
NERVOUS AT FIRST.
The sheriff said Thaw was nervous
and excited when first arrested at Cole
brook ard his deportation from Canada
and also when he was denounced at
the extradition hearing before Cover
nor Fe1keT by William 7. Jerome, spe-
ciai deputy attorney general Of New
York. but no more than any man
would under the same circumstances
added the witness.
Thaw was piea SAINT companion uu-
der all circumstances and in conversa-
tfons upon current topics displayed
wonderful insight he said.
would you consider him CO. ac-
terized by an exaggeration OF ths ego 90
asked DR.. George 4. BIuTner Of the
commission. =
stNo sir
OTcer Stevens. who occuoied a
accomparied him on his walks, de-
scrihed Thaw as "a perfect gentleman"
He said he wished he had Thaw's con-
VersationaI abilitv The PRINCIPAL diff
ference between Thaw and most other
men. IN his opinion. was that Thaw
was more kind.
Stevens said Thaws wife had never
been mentioned in their conversations
The witness had never seen anything
IN the prisoner TO make him feel that
Thaw was a public menace.
Before adiourning the hearing with
out date. Frank S. Streeter stated for
me commission that Mr., Jerome had
notified him that he had decided not
to appear because the scope Of the COM
missions inquiry was so limited.
1t seems obvious" the commissioner
said. that Mr.. Jerome greatly rnisap-
prehends the courts order and the
duty thereunder. Unlimited powers
appear to have been conferred upon
the commission to enable it to per-
form its duty of advising the court
as to whether Thaw's liberty on bail
would menace public safety"

Buy Your Winter Supply of Coal
Now.

When the nations Of the earth are at
peace with each other and there are no
wars to threaten the consumption OF
the coal output, it is regarded as econ
omy for everybody to purchase during
the summer season their winter supply
OF coal, and now it is much more inn
portant that this be done, as there is an
Increased demand for American coal in
this country and abroad.
There will probably be increased de-
mand for American coal in South Amer
lea, as we'll as for the belligerant coun-
tries, for Great Britain has been ship
ping annually more than 100000
tons, while this country has been ship
ping only $50, 1000 tons, and now since
England's shipment MUST cease, the
coal mines OF america will be looked
to for, the supply.
II at any time there has been good
reason for buying winter supply OF coal
during the summer, there is now good
reason for 1t.
