Supreme Court Decides
That He May be
Extradited
Washington. d. c., December 81.

Washington. ID. c., December 81.
Harry X. Thaw lost his fight to
| day In the supreme court of the Unit
ed States. against being cytradited
from the state of New hampshire to
the statee of New York.
In "A brief decision by Justice
Holmes. which was tho unanimous
decision of the court. IL was held that
tn" celebrated prisoner should be
turned over at once to the New York
authorities to answer an t. lie, ,ment
charging conspiracy to -lpc from
Mattewan asylum for the criminal
insane
Actually the celebrate Thaw case
the killing of Stanford White
was not before the surrcme court
Merely the question of returning
Thaw on conspiracy Indictment was
mp for decision.
What other moves. ~ any. were
open to Thaw's counsel to prevent his
return to the state where he was
twice tried and had made many fu-
tile efforts to be released. those ia
miliar with the legal procedure were
at Il loss to forecast. 70 those who
have followed the case Il seemed that
the fight against returning to New
York was lost and that nothing re-
mained but for the sheriff to turn
Thaw over to New York Officers up
on the extradition granted by Cover
nor OF New Hampshire nut stayed by
the decision of Justice Aldrich which
was today reversed. Il
Thaw may. however. remain In NeN
Hampshire for thirty days. unless his
attorneys consent to his removal
sooner. This results from the fact
that the mandate of the supreme
not issued until thirty days from to-
day, unless the attorneys for both
sides join in requesting an earlier is
sue of the order.
Legal authorities who have fol-
lowed the cast point ou' today thar
New York with it's custody of Thuw
secure, might now direct his immed-
late trial for conspiracy OF might an
null the indictment and return the
prisoner to Mattewan or 1t might re-
turn him to the asylum in disregard
of the indictment.
During the argument of the case
before the supreme cour. Chief jus
tice White intimated that immediate
imprisonment of Thaw after his re-
turn might give rise to another IIa-
beas corpus proceeding to determine
whether federal right lad been de-

Industrial Bill Drafted to

employ. Farmers, stockmen and or
clardists are exempted as are also
employers Of domestic labor. These
occupations are deemed to be so lack
ing in hazard as to warrant men en-
ployed in them being exempted.
The bill may be divided into two
sections--onc referring to the indus
trial commission which will admin
lister the entire act, and the other to
the compensation feature. Both
closely follow the lines OF the Wis
consin act which has saved that state
upwards of quarter of a million
dollars a year in the cost of main
taining the courts and has diverted
to the laboring element suing for
damages to the person, 80 per cent
of thr money recovered, whereas &c
fore lne enactment of the law the
lawyers received more than 30 per
cent of ii.
The law provides Ior commission
of three men who will not be repre-
sentatives of either labor or capital
as such. They will be selected for
office six years. They will be ap-
pointed by the governor and con-
firmed by the senate and will. when
so confirmed. assume supervision

FIRES
IN YEAR 1914,
SMALL BLAZE
SATURDAY NIGHT

SiXty-two fires in the city Of
Trinidad from January of this year
and all of them extinguished with a
very small loss or damage is the rec
ord of the Trinidad fire department
up to date. The last blaze occurred
Saturday evening at a house occupied
by Ralph Marsh at sos Colorado
avenue, the fire being caused by chill
dren placing bed clothing against a
stove pipe. The damage to the place
VS. a hole in the floor. the blaze be-
ing put out with chemicals with a
damage not to exceed S25.
In the past year there has been a
great reduction in fire insurance
written by local agents. a great
many residents and property owners
have either reduced the amount of
insurance on their homes or else
withdrawn insurance entirely. They
argue that Trinidad has such few
fires and that they are so handled
as to result in little damage. The
latter statement is of course a splen-
did appreciation of the local fire de
partment.
The fact, as the records of the fire
chief will show, there are almost as
many fires now as in time past, but
fortunately they nave been eXtin-
guishcd before they reached serious
proportions. However. there is al
ways the chance that fire may
break out and get a good start be
fore it is discovered. In that event
greater loss and damage may result
and the advantage of an ample in
surancc policy is then emphasized.

Denver, Colo, Dec. 21.-The fin
.shing touches have been put upon
the tentative bill for law creating
an Industrial commission and provid-
ing for workmen's compensation
by a committee of lawyers, who have
been drafting the measure at the
suggestion of Governor-elect George
A. Carlson. Except in minor chang
es, this draft is as the bill will be i'll
troduced in rthe Legislature. Five
hundred copies of the measure will
be printed and distributed among
committees of employers, the commit
tee of the labor unions. named by
the Federation of Labor and others
who are interested. Any suggestions
emanating from any of theses ources
will be considered by the lawyers be-
fore drawing the bill into its final
shape.
None of the lawyers. mo have
taken part in drafting the bill are
employed by any labor union nor are
they identified with any corporate
interest, They were selected be-
cause, first of all they are men who
enjoy Mr. Carlson's confidence and
because they believe that much OF the
trouble that has come to Colorado
during the last few years, has been
due to the very, evils which the pro-
,osed law will have tendency to
remove.
At first 1t was decided to present
the plan in two separat" bills. but n
method hae been found which en-
,bled them to consolidate il into one
measure. The proposed law will ap-
ply to all employers of labor VINO
