I f /, •f Sympathy for Fugitive Great, and He Is Elated as Court Delay Aids His Fight. Sheriff Who Took Thaw Regrets He Had to Hold Him COLEBROOK, N. H.. Aug. 22 — Deputy Sheriff J. H. Kelsea, who is responsible for the capture of Harry K. Thaw, is a nervous wreck at his home here—remorseful for the part he played. He said: "I wish to heaven I had never seen Thaw. I have regretted ever since that I met him and had to ap prehend him. "I was between two fires. My sympathies were all with Thaw, but it was impressed upon me by officers of the county that it was my sworn duty as a New Hamp shire Sheriff to arrest him. Three times the reward that was offered would not have Induced me to give him up but for the fact that I was an officer of the law. I will never cease to regret it." Continued From Page 1. Thaw delightedly, when shown a copy of the paper. "I know I will get fair play here, and that is something I never got in New York. Never was mortal man treated worse than I was. They conspired against me to keep me in an asylum which was worse than being in priwn. I know that the people of Canada have only kind ly feelings for me; in fact, 1 am tempted to become a resident of this country if I can establish my civic rights here.” The fugitive was angered by the presence of armed guards about the jail. “Do you think I am going to batter my way through those thick walls?” demanded the prisoner, of Governor H. La Force, of the St. Francis jail. ’They are also mistaken if they think I am going to harm myself. Do peo ple think 1 would be fighting so hard for my just freedom if I were think ing of suicide?” Alienists Say He Is Sane. Dr. W. A. Sterling;, Dr. G. L. Hume and Dr. J. O. Ledoux, who examined Thaw at the request of Dr. Britton Evans a N§w York City alienist, have made c affidavit to the effect that Thaw is rational and sane. These are the various lines along which Thaw now is fighting: Delaying arguments on his ha beas corpus fight that he will have to be kept in jail and can not fall Into the hands of the Im migration Department. Having his sanity established by Canadian specialists in order to prove to the Government he is not an undesirable. Appealing to the American State Department and the Gov ernor of Pennsylvania to assist him as a resident of the United States and property holder in Pennsylvania. Preparing to ask for an in junction to prevent extradition or deportation if turned over to the officials of the Immigration De partment by the court. Still Clever, He Tells Mother. Securing the court’s permission to get his temporary freedom on bail, os that he might leave the country and forfeit it. Resist the service of the Dutch ess County, N. Y.. warrant charg ing him with conspiracy in his .escape from Matteawan. Thaw to-day wrote a long letter to his mother, in which he said he hoped soon to meet her in Cresson, Pa. HE TO CITT TO T Actor, Arrested for Staring at Women, Says He Was Looking for His Sweetheart. A wonderful tale of having come to Atlanta to get married and for getting the address of his bride was told at police headquarters Friday by Edward Hogan, an actor from New Orleans, who was arrested at Five Points by Detective Harper late Thursday. Harper arrested Hogan because, he says, the actor was staring rudely and offensively at women. Hogan in sists he was looking for his sweet heart, hoping to see her in the pass ing throng. “I came to Atlanta to marry Miss Marie Byrd," Hogan declared, “and when I got here I could not remem ber her address. I haven’t seen her in some time, but I’d know her in a minute. I was standing there wait ing to see if she wouldn't pass ’’ Hogan insists also that he was lock ed up five days ago instead of yes terday. The actor's arrest was the climax of a number of sensational incidents. After he had stared at women passing Five Points for more than an hour, citizens who noticed him told Detec tive Harper, and the officer watched him. Hogan went into a soda foun tain and asked the soda clerk for the loan of a nickel. The clerk said he didn’t have a nickel. Hogan gazed at him sadly. “Poor fellow,” he *aid. “If you haven’t any money, I’ll give you some! ” He took 90 cents from his pocket and threw it on the counter. Then he began pulling greenbacks from his pockets. He had placed several dol lars on the counter when he was arrested. The police have wired to Hogan’s relatives and the police in New Or leans, and are awaiting an answer. Trophy Rifle Match At Savannah Off “My cleverness is not exhausted yet," he told her. When the prisoner looked through the barred window of his cell and saw a crowd of several hundred peo ple in the streets about the jail, he showed his elation. The people )f this part of Quebec are still mak ing a gala occasion of Thaw’s en forced stay here. There are so many visiting lawyers, newspaper men and tourists that hotel accommodations are becoming scarce. Gives Sheriff the Laugh. Sheriff Hombeck, of Dutchess County, New York, who came here with District Attorney Conger, of the same county, to take Thaw on a conspiracy warrant and land him back in Matteawan, planned to leave for home this afternoon. “I can not do any good here with my hands tied,” said Hornbeck. “It is a certainty that Thaw will be de ported." When Hornbeck went in to say [ good-bye to Thaw, the fugitive’s face was wreathed in smiles. “This is the time I beat you, Sher iff." cried Thaw, delightedly. Grlynn Asks Vermont To Apprehend Thaw. ALBANY, N. Y., Aug. 22.—Martin H. Glynn to-day sent a telegram to Governbr Allen M. Fletcher at Mont pelier, Vt.. asking him to have Harry Thaw apprehended If he is deported into that State next week. Glynn stated in the telegram that he was informed the Canadian Immi gration authorities will deport Thaw into Vermont on or about Wednesday, August 27, that being the State from which he entered Canada. Sherbrooke Would Give Thaw Chance to Flee. SHERBROOKE. QUEBEC, Aug. 22. The Sherbrooke Record publishes the following: "If the illegality of the arrest of Thaw at St. Hermenegilde de Bar- ford Is established, there are some good Britishers who believe the fair thing to do Is to take Thaw back to the 'little hotel at St. Hermenegilde and there set him free. "Reset the stage exactly as it was when he was illegally apprehended. Let the sleuths upon the track be set back a certain distance and a fair start given the fugitive. “If Thaw is to be finally disposed of according to law’ he should not be handicapped in his defense by illegal acta against him in the name of the law, Is the contention. "He is on Canadian soil, and what ever may be the public opinion with regard to the merits of his contention i that he deserves liberty, it will be i unanimous that he should have Brit- I lsh fair play.” SAVANNAH, Aug. 22.—Because two of the military organizations eligible to the contest have found that they will be unable to enter a rifle team the Derenne trophy rifle match which was to have been held on La bor Day will not take place. The First Regiment was the only eligible contestant ready for the match, and as it would be awarded the trophies by forfeit under the cir cumstances. it, too, will withdraw and allow the Guards, now holding the trophies, to hold them for another year.
