Lincoln, Aug. 19.-(Special. y
Governor Mckelvie is Withholding
action on the request OF Iowa author
tiles for a writ Of extradition for the
return of Harry Thompson to the
Iowa state pcnitentiary pending the
arrival OF attorneys from Stanton,
Ncb., to appear before the Lancaster
county district court in an attempt
to get a writ of habeas corpus 1or
Thompson release.
Thompson was released from tie
Nebraska state penitentiary two days
ago because the. supreme court de-
cidcd the trial court made technical
error in its instructions to a jury
when Thompson was on trial tor
murder in Stanton.
Records show that Thompson, alter
the commission OF the alleged muir
der at Stanton, went to Iowa where
he was arrested, convicted and SEN
fenced to the Iowa state penitcntlary
on larceny charge. Upon request
of Nebraska, Iowa authorities re-
leased him to be brought here on
the murder charge. Prior to the
murder, records show Thompson had
broken a parole from the Iowa state
reformatory.
Now attorneys claim Iowa authori-
ties cannot take Thompson back or
a fugitive charge to serve more tlms
because he did not run away iron
