Rome.-The troops and police at
many places in Italy were called on
Sunday to keep down riotous demon

tions of the anniversary Of the death
of the Irredentist leader, Oberdank,
who organized the unsuccessful plot
to assassinate Emperor Francis 10
seph in Trieste in 1882 and was put
to death for it.
During the night OF Saturday parties
to the movement placarded the streets
with posters referring to Oberdank
and also distributed leaflets bearing
the inscription, Remember the sacri-
flee of Oberdank." Several were ar
rested and some demonstrators were
slightly injured in clashes with the
police.
The republican deputy, Cola Ami,
delivered q speech to a sympathetic
audience, which frequently broke into
applause, as the speaker recited the
history OF the "Triestan Martyr" and
his ideals, and declared It was neces-

HARRY THAW LOSES
FIGHT FOR FREEDOM
SLAYER or STANFORD WHITE
TO BE TAKEN BACK TO NEW
YORK FOR TRIAL.
Fight to Prevent His Extradition From
New Hampshire Ends in Defeat
for Thaw, Who May Be Re-
turned to Asylum.

Washington.-The supreme court OF
the United States on Monday ruled
that Harry Kendall Thaw must be de-
livered up to the state of New York
to be tried on the charge of con-
spiracy to break out OF Matteawan in
sane asylum, or to be recommitted to
the asylum, or both. Thaw's fight
for liberty is, therefore, ended for
the time being.
Thaw is now In Manchester, N. H.
Some Of the best legal talent in the
country has been fighting for months
TO prevent his extradition to New
York. Extradition was ordered by the
governor Of New Hampshire, but Fed
eral District Judge Aldrich granted
Thaw a write OF habeas corpus. This
action of the court was reversed by
the supreme court on Monday.
The decision of the court was
unanimous and was read by Justice
Holmes. 1t held that the writ OF
habeas corpus did not lie, and sus-
tanned the contention OF William
Travers Jerome at every point. Thaw
cannot be taken back for thirty days
under the decision on Monday, Thir-
ty days must elapse before the courts
mandate is handed down, and he can
not be removed to New York before
that time.
The next move in the case is for the
New York authorities to take. 1t has
been said the state does not intend
to prosecute Thaw. but will return
him at once to Matteawan.

CONGRESS REJECTS
PROHIBITION PLANS
THE HoRsofa RESOLUTION TO
SUBMIT A CONSTITUTIONAL
AMENDMENT DEFEATED.
Party Lines Wiped Out in the Struggle
In the House, the Advocates Of
Nationwide Prohibition Going
Down to Defeat.

Washington.-The He Sson resolution
to submit a constitutional amendment
for national prohibition to the state
legislature was defeated in the house
Tuesday night, 1877 members voting
Sor and 1879 against 1t. An affrma-
tive vote of two-thirds was required to
adopt the resolution.
Party lines were wiped out in the
struggle. Democratic Leader Under
wood and Republican Leader Mann
fought shoulder to shoulder at the
head of the forces opposing the reso-
luton. And when the vote came. OF
the 1877 standing for the resolution,
ia we're Democrats, 81 were Republi-
cans and IL were Progressives and
A were independent Republicans,
Prohibition leauers declared that
the majority for the resolution had
fulfilled their expectations as they had
not hoped for a two-thirds vote at this
time. Whether similar resolution
pending in the senate submitted by
Senator Shepard OF Texas would reach
a vote in the senate at this session
was not certain Tuesday night. Ad-
ministration leaders are inclined to
believe, however. that it will not, in
view of the action of the house.
Notwithstanding repeated public
assertions that many members of the
house would, try to dodge a record
vote on the issue, the roll call dis
closed heavy attendance, larger
than the average throughout the SEES
sion. On the final vote 1856 votes
were recorded. To have carried the
resolution would have required 258 at
firmative votes. 1t thus failed by 81
votes.
