Admits Identity Readily.

seen on the train had alighted and
hired a man named Brooks to take
them for a drive.
Kelsey got the direction and, by
asking along the road, traced the car
riage driven by Brooks across the
line into the Canadian woods. The
three men had evidently persuaded
Brooks to drive them by a wgod road,
and Kelsey traced them easily. They
overtook Brooks, but his carriage was
empty.
“I would not drive them any far
ther," said Brooks. "I have got to
get back to the falls. They offered
me $20 to go on, but I couldn't do it.”
''Where did they go?” Kelsey asked.
"They got a farmer to drive them to
Coaticook,” Brooks replied.
Thaw Admits Identity.
Kelsey and his two companions put
on speed, and on the edge of Coati
cook they saw the team ahead with
three men and the driver in it.
Kelsey stopped at a house and tele
phoned to the Coaticook police, then
went ahead in his automobile and fol
lowed the vehicle. A policeman stop
ped the carriage. "Which of you is
Harry K. Thaw?” he demanded.
The three men each made denials,
and said the police had made a mis
take. Then Kelsey came ' up, and
when the man who had previously ad
mitted he was Thaw saw Kelsey, he
refused to talk.
Later Kelsey, who went to the po
lice station with the officers and the
man he had identified as Thaw, tele
phoned to his family in Colebrook that
Thaw had again admitted his identity
to the Coaticook police.
Deputy Sheriff Kelsey then tele
phoned to New York and told them
he had a man thought to be Thaw
under arrest.
“Hold him,” said the New York au
thorities, and the Coaticook authori
ties at once entered a charge of be
ing a fugitive from justice against
Thaw and released the other two.
Preparations were made for taking
the man held to Sherbrooke this aft
ernoon. The object of the party in
leaving the train at Beecher Falls is
believed to have been a desire to
avoid the immigration and customs
officers who board the train lit the
border and scrutinize each passen
ger.
Wife Still in Fear
Of Thaw, She Says.
NEW YORK, Aug’. 19.—Former As
semblyman Richard J. Butler, a
West Side politician and former
henchman of Chief of Police
“Big Bill” Devery, who was reported
to have been implicated in the plot
by which Thaw escaped, denied to
day that he had be^n mixed up in the
escape of the Pittsburger.
“X know nothing about this, and I
certainly had no part in It,” declared
Butler. “It is certain, though, that if
any man was about to be mixed up
in an affair of this kind he would not
use his own name. I believe that some
gangster who was paid to help Thaw
out used my name. In fact, I believe
that I know the man.”
Butler admitted that he had been
away from home for several days, but
denied that he had been in Mat-
teawan.
One of the men for whom a war
rant was issued in Dutchess County
yesterday used the name of Richard
J. Butler, of New York, while wait
ing at the Holland Hotel in Beacon
for the Thaw getaway to come off.
Sheriff Hombeok and District At
torney Conger, of Dutchess’ County,
armed with warrants for the arrest
of Thaw, Thomas Flood. Roger
Thompson, Michael O’Keefe, Eugene
Duffy and Butler, came to this city
to-day.
Family to Fight Extradition.
Evelyn Thaw, the estranged wife of
the slayer, cowers in this city, afraid
of her life. She declared that she
would keep a bodyguard about her
until Thaw’s actual whereabouts be
came known.
It Vs evident that Thaw and his
family will make a determined fight
against extradition to this State if
an attempt is made to bring him
back. Thaw’s defense, in all prob
ability, will be that his escape was
providential.
Detectives in the employ of Acting
Governor Martin H. Glynn, who is
taking unusual interest in the case,
reported the discovery of two of the
alleged conspirators and said that ar
rests were imminent. It was reported
Mr. Glynn would convene the Dutch
ess County Grand Jury in extraor
dinary session to probe the escape of
Thaw. Burns detectives have been
Drought into the case and are helping
in the search for Thaw.
Accompanied by Miss Mary Cope-
ly, her sister and traveling compan
ion, Mrs. William Thaw left to-day
for Cresson. Pa.
Mrs. Thaw refused to discuss the
escape of her son further than to
say:
“I have positively not heard from
Harry since my letter yesterday, but
hope he is safe and well.”

REACH PE/ICE
Report of War Move Against the
United States Is Denied by
Charge O’Shaughnessy.
Continued from Pago 1.
It is thought that the Mexican news
papers v. n r« instructed to print only
this story and that they will not car
ry the denial of this ultimatum issued
by Senor Gamboa early to-day.
In this way, it is believed, the
Huerta government will be enabled
to “save its face” before the Mexican
people without at the same time
bringing on war with the United
States.

Lind and Huerta
Patch Up a Truce.
Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.
MEXICO CITY, Aug. 19.—After the
Mexican Government had served a
note upon the United States reject
ing President Wilson's Mexican pro
posals and demanding recognition—•
an action which might have resulted
in war—John Lind, special envoy
from President Wilson, and President
Huerta got together In the National
Palace early to-day and patched up a
truce.
President Huerta experienced a
sudden change of heart last nigh',
summoned Envoy Lind to him and
spent two hours in discussion of pos
sible measures that would lead to
peace In Mexico.
Cablegrams reaching the "White
House to-day show clearly thnt
Huerta yesterday afternoon turned
down Mr. Lind with great emphasis,
and that the latter reported the fail
ure of his mission to the State De
partment. Some hours later General
Huerta summoned Mr. Lind to the
National Palace and discussed with
him the very points he previously had
refused to consider. The result of
this discussion the White House has
not yet made public.
The change of front on Huerta’s
part is puzzling President "Wilson and
State Department officials, and they
are wondering what change of atti
tude will come next.
No final point in the negotiations
between Envoy Lind and President
Huerta has been reached, and official
information coming to Washington
to-day shows they are progressing
satisfactorily. That the official Amer
ican note to Huerta was rejected In
one instance and that this rejection
was withdrawn is established. The
full text of the Huerta reply to the
note is being cabled to the State De
partment, and probably will be laid
before President Wilson late to-day.

Liquor Question Is
Issue in Alabama
ANNISTON, Aug. 19.—With the
hope of keeping the liquor question
out of the next session of the Ala
bama Legislature, a proposed com
promise between prohibitionists and
local optlontsts in this county is be
ing discussed, the object being to in
sure men of high moral and mental
ability, men with business experi
ence, to represent the county at the

Mystery in Death
Of Woman on Train
CHICAGO, Aug. 19.—Mrs. May
Bacharach, 43, wife of Herschel Bach-
arach, superintendent of the City
Club at Boston, Mass., died to-day,
poisoned by food or water on a train
en route from St. Louis to Chicago.
Coroner Hoffman, of this city, be
gan a searching investigation of the
cause of her death.
CHICAGO. Aug. 19.-—In a booklet
published under the title of "Gluttony
and Lucre," Leon Pescheret, famous
over Europe as a chef, and now di
recting the commissary of a large
Chicago hotel, says the wealthy pa
trons of eating place* in America are
“gilded, mixed breed, perverted
calves, who have more money than
sense, and who become criminals
through indulgence in their rattish
and doggish pastimes.”
Three of Pescheret’s most pointed
paragraphs say:
"Many servants would experience 1
great deal more satisfaction and be
rewarded by much more gratitude at
tending real swine than at feeding
the ill-bred hogs that are disorgan
izes and producers of immorality and
the present-day social order of
things.”
“In no class have I found mo^e
hypocrisy and false devotion, false
morals, deceitfulness—even among
themselves—than among snobbish,
wealthy people.”
“Clothes and jewelry do not make
the lady or gentleman. Any good ex
perienced and traveled waiter realizes
that people finely dressed and whh
plenty of money to spend show about
as much ignorance about a daily
menu as a mule dTessed up in silks
would show.”
Augusta-Columbus
Railroad Proposed
COLUMBUS, Aug 19.—A move
ment which had its origin in Macon,
with a strong second by the Colum
bus Board of Trade, has come to light
which proposes a direct railroad line
between Columbus and Augusta, pass
ing through Macon and the county
seat of every county which it would
touch.
The distance would be about 240
miles, and would not parallel any
other road. Those who have begun
the movement express confidence in
the project and believe that it can be
financed and that it will become a
reality.
