Dominion Government Shows
Hand for First Time in Legal
Battle Over Fugitive.
SHERBROOKE, QUEBEC, Aug.
22.—Harry Thaw won a big point
in his fight for freedom here
when early this afternoon the
Canadian physician sent to see
him by the Dominion Department
of the Interior declared that in .
his opinion Thaw now is entirely
sane and rational.
SHERBROOKE, QUEBEC, Aug. 22.
ie Canadian Government to-day
owed ita hand in the case of Harry
Thaw, the fugitive from Mattea-
rn who is held here In jail.
F. Campbell, counsel for the Do-
Inion Government, secured a post-
nement of one week of the hearing
"Educated Roger” Thompson, the
ew York City chauffeur, who is un-
T arrest charged with aiding and
lotting an undesirable alien to enter
e country.
At the same time W. L. Shurtleff, of
unsel for Thaw, returned from Ot-
wa, after serving notice upon the
epartment of Immigration that It
ust show that Thaw is insane before
i can be deported or extradited.
Blake Robertson, assistant super-
tendent of the Department of Im-
Igration. is here and has held sev-
a i consultations with local physi-
ans It is reported that alienists
ill be brought from Ottawa and
ontreal to examine Thaw for the
Dvernment.
The indications now are that the
ovemment will attempt to prove
haw insane. That would he accept-
,le to the Thaw counsel, as they
ive already taken steps to combat It
ider direction of Dr. Britton Evans.
plan to Show Thaw Insane.
The Government has sent to New
ork for papers by which it Is
ianned to show that Thaw Is Insane.
Thaw has issued an appeal to the
Libllc. , „ .
"Do not see me persecuted, he
ried from his cell.
In securing the postponement of
,e hearing, Mr. Campbell said:
■From the moment of this mans
rrest we have been awaiting certain
aper. from New York. They are
n portent. They bear on Thaws
lental condition and the Government
ati not go on without them."
Thaw sat to-day in. the St. Francis
,11 bombarding various official dr
ies in the United States demanding
na t they come to his aid. Rumors
f a plot to liberate Thaw flew thick
nd fast, but no foundation for them
ould be found.
Plot Rumors Stir Governor.
As the result of rumors of a plot
o take Thaw from jail the prisoner
ras isolated. Governor LaForce or-
ered that no one but Thaw’s ac-
redited attorneys should visit him In
he future. Heretofore newspaper
nen had been give- great freedom
bout the jail.
Governor LaForce suddenly has be-
ome suspicious of strangers. He
ven suspected Dr. Evans, the fa-
nous alienist, of being a "gangster."
’haw's lawyers scoff at the Idea of a
>lot.
Rumors of the plot appear to have
irlsen from a chanct remark at the
:ourthouse. A spectator expressed the
,elief that If Thaw was taken from
he jail In an automobile the driver
;ould he bribed to dash out of town
vlth Thaw in the car. In the crowd
rhaw’s disappearance might not be
loticed until he had time to make
jood his getaway. One British corre-
ipondent overheard this talk, and ac-
;epting it as an authentic piece of
^formation, used it.
Editorial Pleases Thaw.
Dr. Evans has left for New York,
lie was much amused at being taken
lor a gangster. His appearance bore
jut to some extent the suspicion of
the jailer, for the alienist is a big
Durly man with a red face.
Thaw has taken additional hope
rrom an editorial in Tne Sherbrooke
Record demanding "British fair play"
tor him.
“That is the proper spirit,” said

Solicitor Hugh Dorsey, Friday afternoon, opened a vigorous,
cutting arraignment of Leo M. Frank—the final blow of the State
at the man accused of the murder of Mary Phagan. The Solicitor
followed Luther Rosser who had spoken for more than six hours
and he was expected to make an exhaustive review of the evidence
in an effort to show that it fixed the crime conclusively on Frank.
Court adjourned at 5:15 when the Solicitor had hardly started
on his speech. The opening was brilliant in its slashing attack
and was featured by a spectacular and strikingly effective com
parison with the famous Durant case in California, which the de
fense had itself cited. The defense had itself cited the Durant
case as an instance where the wrong man had been executed. The
Solicitor insisted that justice had been done.
Frank was calm under the fiery attack. His wife and mother
looked somewhat worn.
The Solicitor was given an ocation as he left the courtroom,
a big crowd cheering him for his masterful opening of the State’s
case .
Solicitor Dorsey arose from his seat and remaining at his ta
ble, began addressing the court in low, even tones.
“May it please your Honor,” he said, “I wish to thank you
for the courtesy in giving us unlimited time, and I desire, gentle
men of the jury, to commiserate you. But as his Honor has told
you, this is an important case. It is important to society; impor
tant to the defense; important to me; important to you.
“I would not feel like slurring over any of it for the sake of
physical conditions. And indeed, gentlemen of the jury, although
I know it does inconvenience you, I feel that you would not have
me slur over any of it. I may seem at some stag-.s a little tedious,
but a case that has consumed almost a solid month, a case of this
magnitude, can’t be argued quickly.
“This case, not only as his honor has told you, and I have in
timated, is important, but it is extraordinary. It was an extraordi
nary crime, a most heinous crime; a crime that demanded earnest,
vigorous, conscientious effort on the part of the detectives and my
self. And it demands earnest, vigorous conscientious consideration
on your part.
‘‘It is extraordinary because
of the prominence and the abil
ity of the counsel that has been
pitted against us. Four of them,
Arnold, Rosser and the two
Haas’.”
Leonard Haas interrupted
Dorsey: ‘‘No, I am not one of
the counsel,” he said.
“All right," said Dorsey, “three of
them—one Haas, It is extraordinary
because of the defendant. It la ex
traordinary on account of the argu
ment of the defense; also on account
of the methods they have puraueil.
They have two of the ablest lawyers
In this country; also Mr. Haas is an
able lawyer.
“As Mild a Man As
Ever Out a Throat.”
"There is Mr. Rosser, rider of the
winds and stirrer of the storms; Mr.
Arnold, and what I say Is meant In
no bitterness, because I love him—as
mild a mannered man as ever cut a
throat or scuttled a ship.
"They have maligned me and
abused the detectives and they have
heaped calumny upon us to such an
extent that that good lady over there,
the mother of the defendant, arose in
this presence and called me a dog.
When did a murderer ever feel the
lialtar tightning around his neck with
a good opinion of the law?
“I don’t want your good opinion,"
said Dorsey, turning to Frank. "If
you (turning to- the Jury) put your
stamp of approval on my case 1 am
satisfied. They say prejudice and
perjury, and they used that stereo
typed expression, fatigued Indigna
tion. Don’t let that indignation ac
centuate your action.
Defense Brought in
Issue of Prejudice.
“Gentlemen, do you think that
these detectives and myeelf, sworn
officers of the law, would have
sought to hang thin man and pass up
Jim Conley, a negro, unless we knew
what we were doln*?
(Luther Rosser's speech* in full on
inside pages.) K
"Prejudice? Was it prejudice when
they arrested Newt Lee? And Gantt?
No, It was not prejudice until the
law got their client, Leo M. Frank.
We never once in this trial referred
to a sect or creed. It was they that
brought it in. It was their one dellv-
erance.
"Not a word emanated from this
side Indicating any prejudice in this
case. Any prejudice, white or black.
Jew or Gentile. We did not need it.
V\e would have despised ourselves if
we had brought It Into this case, and
when it was brought into the ease at
the last hour, when the attorneys for
the defence questioned George Kenlev
how they Jumped upon it. How the
expressions of delight spread over
their faces when the word Jew was
spoken. They seized on it with avid
ity. They have harped on It al!
through their speeches. We never
mentioned it. Please remember that
The race from which that man came
is Just as good as ours. It was civ
ilized when ours was still cutting
each other up end eating one another.
Thelr race Is as good as ours, but not
any better.
“I honor the race that has pro
duced a Disraeli, the greatest Prime
Minister that England ever had. I
honor the Straus brothers, particu
larly the one who went down on the
Titanic with his wife. I know Rabbi
Marx and I honor him. I know Dr.
Sonn, of the Orphans’ Home, and I
honor him.
Ask Conviction
Only On Evidence.
“But this same race lias produced
Its Abe Hume!, sent to the peniten
tiary In New York: Its Abe Reuf, sent
to tlie penitentiary In California; Its
Nathan Schwartz, who stabbed little
Julia Conners In New York.
"These illustrations show that thie
race is amenable to the same laws as
other races. They rise to heights
sublime, but they sink to the depths
of degradation
•'We don’t ask the conviction of this
man except according to the lew
which his honor will give to you tn
