Brewers hearing was brief. As
sistant District Attorney Black. OF
New York, informed the magistrate
that the crime with which Brewer was
connected was a particularly atrocious
one and asked that he be held until
requisition papers arrived Henry
Scott, counsel for Brewer. said Brewer
was a business friend of Thaw's In
Pittsburg, and that the papers bear
ing on the Gump case found in Brow
er's possession had been given him
by Thaw and that he had no knowl-
edge of their contents.
After bail was refused Brewer, his
counsel applied for writ of habeas
corpus and Judge Patterson, in COM
mon pleas court. fixed Monday for
hearing arguments. The arrival of
the reQuisition papers prior to that
time, however would nullify the
habeas corpus proceedings, according
to Assistant District Attorney Tau
in the county prison.
Thaws condition was reported today
as good" and unless complications
arise his physicians say he will be
able to leave the hospital within two
weeks. DR.. Elwood R. Kirby, of Phila-
delphia. who is attending Thaw. said
the fear that Thaw had swallowed
slow poison tablets, several of which
| were found in his pockets. had been
allayed He added that ii probably
would be forty eight hours before
Thaw would be able to make any
statement He is only able to ca,

are given to him through a feeder He
does not know he is under arrest
Assistant District Attorney Blacl
declared that reports that the charge:
against Thaw were blackmail were
absolutely untrue.
