APPEAL TO THE UNITED
 STATES SUPREME COURT

Little Rock, Oct. 22-The Standard Home Company of Georgia, which made an unsuccessful attempt in the United States District court of Little Rock to nullify the Blue Sky law, has given notice that it will appeal to the United States Circuit Court of Ap- peals. When Judge Jacob Trieber an nounced that he could find nothing in the pleadings of the foreign insurance company that would make the law un- constitutional, F. L. McHaney, repre- senting the plaintiff, requested the right to appeal. The Attorney could not state at that time to what tribu- nal the appeal would be taken, but Judge Trieber announced that if the matter was taken before the Circuit Court of Appeals it could be taken no further.
 Attorney McHaney has chosen the Circuit Court of Appeals as it has re- gently passed upon the Blue Sky laws of other states. and has declared them unconstitutional. Attorney McHaney states this will make them familiar with Blue Sky laws in general. Those connected with the State Banking De partment which has charge of the Blue Sky law enforcement, state the Arkansas law is not so drastic as those of other states, and does not contain the provisions which have permitted the courts to declare the other bills to be unconstitutional

THAW CASE UP IN
SUPREME COURT
Decision Will Not be Handed
Down Till Monday and 1t Ap-
pears as if Prisoner Would
Get Chance For Freedom.

WASHINGTON. Dec u. - Mrs.
Williall Thaw. mother Of Harry X.
Thaw, sat for three hours in the
United States supreme court Friday
listening 20 the arguments for and
against her sons liberty. She leaned
forward in her seat as Mr.. Jerome,
who she has termed her sons Meme
sis, took his placed as the chief Of
counsel against Thaw.
The court room was crowded with
spectators and scores Of lawyers Oc-
cupied the seats reserved for the bar
Mrs. Thaw attired in black relieved
by touches Of white, was visibly ner-
vOus. Several times as Mr.. Jerome
attacked the brief filed with the court
in Thaws behalf by former Sec'y OF
State Knox, Mrs. Thaw evinced emo
ton.
In opening his argument for the
extraditiOn of Thaw, Mr.. Jerome de-
clared that the state Of New York
was not endeavOring TO eXtradite a
criminal but was attempting TO extra
dite Harry X Thaw, on the charge Of
conspiracy TO cause perversiOn Of
obstruction of Justice" Mr. jerome
said the crime Of which Thaw was
accused was conspiracy in effecting
his escape from Mattewan asylum.
New York's special attorney was
irOnical when he commented on the
United States district courts opinion
that Thaw was not a fugitive in the
real sense but left Mateawan merely
because he did not like his environ
ment there
Justices White and. Holmes said
that they recalled a case in which il
was held that il a man were extra
dited from one state for one crime
and then the state doing the extra
diting proceeded TO uy the man for
l. L.
TO appeal to the federal courts.
In opening his defense former
Sec'y Knox scored Jerome for his
brief in which ne alluded TO the
wealth Of the Thaws. lie said wealth
was not crime and it was not the
crime on which Jerome was endeaV-
oring TO have Thaw extradited.
Chief Justice White virtually init
mated that if Thaw is put back into
Matteawan asylum after being extra
dited from New Hampshire he viii
have grounds for new appeals 10 the
federal courts. The chief Justice also
intimated that the good faith of New
YOTk's intention TO try Thaw for the
crime of cOnspira =" end not to put
him in an asylum should not be ques-
toned at this time.
Sec'y Knox answered he did not
question New YOrks good faith in
proposing to try Thaw for conspiracy
Besides Mr.. Knox. Thaw was rep
resented by former Gov. w A. Stone
Of Pennsylvania, 3. Reuben Clark. jr.,
and George +. Morris of New Hamp-
shire.
The decision will not be handed
down for several weeks. AS the mat
ter stands now it appears likely that
the court Will order Thaw's eXtradi-
ton to New York for trial on con-
spiracy but that if he is confined in
Matteawan as a lunatic and not tried
on the conspiracy charge he can star t
"a new fight for liberty by habeas
corpus proceedings.
