Freed Of Charge in COnnec-
tion With Escape.
AGAIN SENT TO THE TOMBS
ing Courts Decision on Motion of
His Attorneys That He Be Returned
to New Hampshire.

New York, March 15.-Harry X.
Thaw. brought back from New
Hampshire under a ruling of the SUI
preme court of the United States TO
face a trial on an indictment for con-
spiracy to interfere with the ends OF
justice, was acquitted by jury which
had had the case under consideration
for eighteen hours.
His escape from Matteawan in 1913.
his arrest in New Hampshire and the
proceedings TO have him brought back
here have held the attention of some
of the ablest lawyers in the East ever
since and all the resources OF the
Thaw fortune, still large despite the
immense drains upon il In the defense
of Harry since he killed Stanford
White, were brought into play to pre-
vent his return to Matteawan asylum
for the criminal insane.
Roger Thompson, Richard j. Butler,
Eugene Duffy and Thomas Flood. the
four men who assisted him i'm his
spectacular flight by automobile from
Matteawan to Canada. also were ac-
quilted.
Asks Return to New Hampshire.
Immediately after his acquittal his
counsel moved for his return to New
Hampshire, the state from which he
was extradited, on the ground that
the conspiracy charge on which he
was brought back having failed 1t is
obligatory on the part of the state of
New York to return him to New
Hampshire.
Justice Page, before whom the case
was heard, will hear argument later
on this point and in the meantime
Thaw was remanded to the Tombs.
The states contention will be that
regardless of the outcome of the con-
spiracy trial Thaw is still a prisoner
of the state of New York and be-
longs properly in Matteawan, whence
he escaped.
His counsel will argue that mas
much as he did escape. and escaping
from iunatic asylum is not an ex-
traditable offense, the state of New
York is obliged to restore the status
existing at the time of Thaw's arrest
in New Hampshire, en- route to Cana
da to take ship for Europe.

Count Won 6ernstorff Asserts Com.
msnder OF Prinx Eitei Friedrich
Had Right to Destroy American
Frelehter Under the Terms of the
Declaration Of London.
Washington, March 15.-Count Won
Bernstorff. German ambassador, in
discussing with state department OFF,
cials the sinking of the American ship
William p. Frye, defended the action
of Captain Thierichens of the German
auxiliary cruiser Prinz Eitel Fried
rich, contending that he acted under
the declaration of London, which was
the only guide he had as to disposi-
tion of prizes.
The ambassador, before going to
the state department, conferred with
Captain Boyd. naval attache of the
embassy, who had just returned from
Newport News, where he went to hear
the story of the sinking of the Ameri-
can vessel from the commander OF
the Eitel.
Count Bernstorff did not present
any note to the state department and
said he had received no instructions
from his government. He said he
called to discuss the question inform
ally and to learn what was the view
of the United States.
Had Right to Sink Frye.
In defending the action of Com
mander Thierichens the ambassador
contended that when the officer left
Tsingtau at the outbreak of the war
last August he had nothing to follow
but the declaration of London in de-
Gliding what to do with vessels he
might seize. For that reason, the am
bassador argued, he had a right to
sink the Frye, as its cargo of wheat
was consigned TO order" and des-
tined to fortified port of the enemy.
So long as there was no port into
which he could take his prize he had
right to destroy not only the cargo
but the vessel itself.
Furthermore, the ambassador
argued that the commander of the
Prinz Eitel did not know that German
prize court on Aug. had held that
the mere fact that a merchant ship is
bound for an enemy's port is not suf'
ficient proof that its cargo is destined
for the enemy.
The full story Of how the Frye was
sunk was officially laid before the
American government by the Frye's
commander. Captain H. H. Kiehne
Or this formal statement the United
States will decide on its course.

CUT THIS OUT
OLD ENGLISH RECIPE FOR CA
TARRHAL DEAFNESS AND
HEAD NOISES

If YOU know someone who is trOu-
hled with mead noises, or Catarrhal
Deafness, cut out this formula, and
hand il TO them, and YOU viii have
been the means OF saving some poor
sufferer perhaps from total deafness.
Recent experiments have proved con
cluyively that Catarrhal Deafness,
head noises. etc, were the direct
cause of constitutional disease, and
that salves. sprays, tnhalers. etc,
merely temporize with the complaint
and seldom. If ever, effect a perma-
nent cure. This being so. much time
and money aas been spent of late by
a noted specialist in perfecting a pare
gentle. yet effective tonic that would
quickly dispel all traces OF the ca
tarrhal poison from the system. The
effective prescription which was
eventually formulated, and which has
aroused the belief that deafness will
soon be extinct is given below in I'M
derstandable form SO that anyone can
treat themselves in their own home at
little expense.

catarrhal poison. and which are often

all ear troubles are directly caused by

many people whose hearing can be
restored by this simple home treat
ment.
Every person who is troubled with

MILE Laos INDIANS PROFIT
Federal Court of Claims May Award
- Red Men $2,5OO,OO0 for Their
Lands Given to Soldiers

About 300 to 400 Indians residing
around Mile Laos lake, who have re-
fused to move to the White Earth reser-
walton, are included among the eight
thousand Ch1ppewas of Northern Min
nesota who are hopeful of getting a
Christmas present Of $2,5O0,OOO this
year: The court or claims at Washing
ton is the prospective Santa Claus and
is considering arguments presented to
it last week on the strength Of which
the Indians hope to get their money.
According to George B. Edgerton.
their attorney who has returned to St..
Paul from Washington, the Chippewas
practically are certain to get an award
of between $1,300,000 and $1,4OO,0 900.
The interior department as trustee for
the Indians is defendant in the case.
The case involves the disposal of In
dian lands on the Minnesota reserva-
lions under which the Chippewas were
to be removed to the White Earth res
ervation and their other lands sold and
the funds held in trust for them by the
government.
The Indians contend that large
part of their most valuable lands were
given as homesteads to the soldiers for
which the Indians received no compen-
sation.
The case already has gone to the
supreme court of the United States
where it was sent back to the court Of
claims to fix the amount of damages.
If the full amount contended for by
Mr.. Edgerton is allowed each Indian,
including the children, will receive be-
tween $500 and $500.
