THAW APPEALS TO
NEW YORK PEOPLE
ASKS FOR TERMINATION OF THE
FIGHT AGAINST HIM BY HIS AD-
VERSARIES.

Concord, y. H., March 15.-llarry *.
Thaw has addressed to the people OF
the state of New York, in whose name
is being conducted the contest to re-
turn the slayer of Stanford White to
the Mattea"2G Asylum for the Grim
inal Insane, an appeal to end the case
against him. A statement of the case
was telegraphed today by Thaw to the
newspapers and press associations,
calling attention to resolutions which
have been introduced in the New York
assembly by John B. Golden, demand
ing that the prosecution be terminated,
Thaw, reviewing his two trials, set
forth that Of the twenty-siX men con
fined with him in the Tombs in 1906,
charged with homicide, twenty-three
are free today, and other men have
escaped from Matteawan without be-
ing pursued The statement concludes
as follows;

justice, which should be the inherent
right of every man. For the deed com
mitted, ! ask no beneyolence. It was
done in moment when sorrow wreck

realize that the happiness Of life
time, which after marriage should
have been mine, was taken from me.
The deed was committed, my family,

they will make their home. The many
friends of Judge and Mrs Russell re
gret to lose friends and neighbors of
such qualities, that we should all pos

it was she who was first with comfort

friends will gain what We lose, and
her old friends in Oklahoma City will
welcome her gladly, for they know her

might be proud. His decisions show
him to be a man of justice, a man OF
