Y., An?. 23.—Thp following verses were written by Harry Kendall Thaw in his room at Mattea- wn and found in the waste-paper basket beside his reading table last December: "There are lights aflame on Broadway, There are hopes and lives undone; There are debts of sin no man can pay, And Broadway hates the sun. '' There are vain regrets on Broadway, There are secret sighs and tears; For one must smile as well as pray, And the weakling meets with jeers."

Orders Sent to Immigration Agents at Sherbrooke, He Declares—Mil lionaire To Be Landed in Vermont Without Ceremony as Undesirable. OTTAWA. ONT, Aug. 23.—Harry K Thaw will be deported from Can aria next Wednesday afternoon or Thursday, according to information secured from an official of the Do minion Immigration Department to night. He will be taken across the border into the State of Vermont. “Instructions to such effect already have been sent to the immigration agents at Sherbrooke,” c aid the offi cial. “They are •David Reynolds and , T. B. Whillan. Thaw is not to be discriminated against. He is to be treated Just as hundreds of undesira bles in the past nave been handled by the immigration authorities. “There will be no ceremony at tached to his deportation. He will be taken back over the border and into Vermont by the railroad that brought him into Canada. “The law provides that the railroad shall dej>ort him. It has done so in other cases, and the authorities here see no reason to make an exception In the case of Thaw. lie can pay the railroad if he wants to, but he does not have to. “The New York authorities have ceased asking Canada for Thaw. They apparently understand that he will be sent into Vermont, and the question will then be up to New York and Vermont.” Thaw Puzzled Over His Course of Action. SHERBROOKK. QUEBEC, Aug. 23. Striding up and down in the hospital ward of the Sherbrooke jail to-night Harry Thaw tried to decide which of two proposals made to him by Ca nadian officials he should accept. They were: Firtt. To drop the legal fight here and submit to deportation to Vermont without any court hear ing. Second. To plead not guilty of the charge on which he waa arrested and to be hold for hear ing, which could not take place before the October term of court. Occasionally the prisoner would stop his exercises long enough to •cribble a note, to one of his squad of lawyers and have it dispatched with all haste. The lawyers had left the decision completely to Thaw. He had taken full charge of the case and had issued so many conflicting orders that they declared he would have to reach a decision for himself. Hard to Decide Course. Thaw said to a newspaper man whom he received at the jail that he found it hard to decide which course of action he would follow. He had been disturbed over a dispatch from Burlington, Vt., quoting Attorney General R. E. Brown, of Vermont, as saying that he had no doubt the Mal- teawan fugitive oquld be extradited from his State to New York. Then n second later the prisoner smilingly exclaimed: “Matteawan will never see me again. Perhaps it will be better for Matteawan. For the first timt? In my life I have a group of lawyer* in whom I have absolute confidence.” He intimated that he would not make any decision as to Ills future course before Sunday afternoon. Sab bath services will be held In the prisoner's room to-morrow. Thaw had wanted to go to church, but the authorities feared that an attempt might be made to kidnap him if he left the Jail. They are taking no chances. May Go to Vermont. It Is believed that Thaw will ac cept the proposal that he be de ported to Vermont and there left to fight with the officials of that Slat- ar.d of New York f.or his liberty. He has intimated to a friend of the' Thaw family now in ShtTbrooke that he favored that proposal more than the other, but he' wants to be sure of his ground before he actually accepts either If he decided to go to Vermont, the action taken by the Canadian author ities will amount to his “ejection” from the Dominion. The habeas cor pus proceedings before Justiee Ar thur Globensky will be dropped an 1 the department will Immediately or der his deportation to Newport, Vt. There is no doubt that Canada would like to get rid of the prisoner. According to the very highest legal authorities, Thaw might wage his fight In the Dominion for several years before his last resource was exhausted, and the Canadian officials want to prevent this if possible. Aide Will Not “Squeal.” One element of danger to Thaw was removed to-day when Roger Thompson, who aided in his escape and is now a prisoner in the same Jail, withdrew his previous threats and said that he would not reveal anything of the plans leading up to the escape from Matteawan. If all the details of the flight were known, it might complicate matters for Thaw and give the New York author ities basis for demanding his extra dition on the ground of bribery. Thompson said that everything had “b^en fixed up.” This indicated that he had been seen by a representative of the Thaw family and promised help in escaping from his predicament. With almost the gleefulness of a schoolboy, Thaw received the news that William Travers Jerome, who had been termed the prisoner's “Nemesis,” had been appointed a spe cial Deputy Attorney General of New York State to secure the mad million aire's return from any Commonwealth that Canada might send him. Glad “Willie’s” on Job. “It is almost worth being deported to have Willie on the job once more,” laughed Thaw, “but I notice Jerome isn't coming to Canada. He is wise in that deci&ior and Governor Glynn will be a good deal wiser before this thing is over and when he begins to realize the strength of public opin ion.” The prisoner received a postal card from Chicago this afternoon that is be^eved to have come from two of the men who helped him escape from Matteawan and accompanied him on the mad dash across the New York State line. The card read: “Friend Harry—Arrived safe. Will write later. Boat regards. Hope everything turns out O. K.—Bob, Fred.” Thaw conferred to-day with Louts St. Laurent, the Quebec lawyer en gaged to look after the Interests of Thompson. When this ended, Thaw said Thompson was perfectly satis fied with the treatment he was get ting. “Thaw So Manly,’’ Cries Admiring Manicurist. SHERBROOKE. QUEBEC, Aug. 23. Thaw is having his every want at tended to. To-day after he had been barbered he requested that a mani curist be secured. The only young woman manicurist of whom Sher brooke boasts went to Thaw’s quar ter*, accompanied by a friend who is employed as a milliner In a local shop. The young women found Thaw so in teresting that they remained with him for an hour and a quarter. “Mr. Thaw is a dandy fellow,’’ said the girls when they came out. “He's a fine looking gentleman, so strong and manly.” Ex Governor Stone Heads Thaw Defense. PITTSRCRG, Aug. 23.—Mrs. Mary Copley Thaw, mother of Harry Thaw, has engaged ex-Governor W. A. Stone, of Pennsylvania, to assume charge of the legal battle now being waged in Canada in which her son is fighting' to keep out of Matteawan. Mr. Stone is already on his way to Sherbrooke. In compliance with an urgent message sent to him at hunt ing ramp in Tioga County. It is re ported that three other Pennsylvania attorneys will be sent to help Thaw.

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.—Mrs. Eve lyn Nesbit Thaw is breaking down under the fear that Harry K. Thaw may evade the law and succeed in reaching her. There were visible evi dences of the strain under which she has been luboring since he escaped from Matteawan last Sunday when a Sunday American reporter saw her last night in the Hotel Brevoort. Thaw’s declaration from the jail in Sherbrooke that her return to the stage had prompted him to make a dash for liberty and that he loved her more than anything else in life were called to her attention. “Good God!” she exclaimed “How could that man say he loves me when he would have let me starve in the streets ?” “Do you love him?” she was asked. “Love him! 1 love him as much as he loves me,” was her derisive reply. “He wanted to keep me down after I had testified and sold my soul for him and I had done everything that a human being could do for a man; and now he makes this maudlin state ment about love. Never Knew Love's Meaning. “He is a paranoiac, and he doesn’t know what love is. He has never known the meaning of it as long as I have known him. As for taking care of me as any man who loved woman would do, both he .and his mother them me out, after 1 hail saved him from the electric chair. “Mrs. Mary Copley Thaw entered Into an agreement with me at the time of the trial to provide me with $12,000 a year on condition that 1 would consent to an annulment of our marriage. I did consent, and the papers were drawn. Then his mother repudiated it. That was In June. 1912, and I have received no money from them since that time. “Before * that date I had received $70 a week and my rent. I had io dispose of pictures and scrape and save to live, and 1 Hn.iily came to the conclusion that I had something with in myself, that 1 could prove I pos sessed the gift of making mv own liv ing. which Is a gift after all. Breaks Into Tears. “I thank God that I have that gilt or his mother would be jeering at me in the gutter,” and Mrs. Thaw broke into tears. “He wants to spoil my life and niy work,” she continued, turning to John Reilly, her counsel, who was in the room. “1 told you that if I made a success he would want to injure me, and here he has stated that my success was the thing that impelled him to break for his liberty. H wants to injure me and he will bend everything to that end. *T told you also,” she added to her lawyer, “that he would not bo free long before he would betray himself through his excessive egotism. “But there is worse coming if he retains his liberty. Things will begin to happen when he gets his drink. He is going to do something desperate, I know, just as surely as I could fore see the things I have referred to. Wait until He gets drink in him—it is ho r rible t contemplate!” And Mrs. Thaw again broke down and sobbed. “Desperate and Dangerous.” “Don’t you think that you may be exaggerating because of your over wrought state of mind?” was asked. “I wish it were so.” she replied. “But anyone who thinks Harry Thaw will not be a desperate man when he gets the opportunity to satisfy his appetite for drink, knows nothing of him. I know him. Dr. Flint knows him. Judge Jerome knows him. He will be a desperate and dangerous man. “This great State ought to be ashamed of itself to allow a para noiac to make and unmake Its insti tutions*.

Let the Tombs officials deny it if they dare. I know it and they know it.

Special Cable to The American. LONDON, Aug. 23.—Antagonism has been aroused in London theatri- I cal circles because Americans are tc play the principal roles in Sir Her bert Tree’s production of “Joseph and His Brethren.” Sir Herbert said: “The Americans are wonderful In whatever they attempt to do. I have the greatest faith in their powers, and, without wishing to enter on a comparison between American and English methods, I must say I think Maxine Elliott will be a peerless Zeu- lika, and George Relph a most ro mantic Joseph."
