'^no -- - - - . — I 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.

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 Continued on Page 6, Column 3.

Durham Grensboro, rain. Winston-Salem-Charlotte, rain. 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.
