COATICOOK, QUEBEC, Sept.
5.—At 3:40 o’clock the board of
inquiry announced its decision.
Its order is that Harry K. Thaw
should be deported on two counts.
First, that of entering the coun
try by ftealth; second, that he is
undesirable because he was an in
mate of an asylum within five
years,
Almost at the same minute
Thaw’s attorneys in Montreal got
a new habeas corpus write re
quiring his presence before Jus.
tice Gerveas, of the Superior
Court.
Thaw’s attorneys at once filed
a notice of appeal, to which they
are entitled, and this acted as a
stay even without the issuance of
the new writ of habeas corpus.
COATICOOK, QUE., Sept. 5.—At
noon to-day the board of inquiry of
the Department of Immigration,
which lias been considering the de
portation of Harry K. Thaw, ad
journed permanently with the an
nouncement that the finding would be
made public at 4 o’clock.
Immediately before adjournment,
Deputy Attorney 'General Franklin
Kennedy of New York State identi
fied Thaw as “the man who had been
incarcerated in the Matteawan, N. Y„
Asylum for the Criminal Insane since
his acquittal of the murder of Stan
ford White.”
All indications were that Thaw
would be ordered deported forthwith.
Even Thaw himself believed this.
The sensation of the day was the
arrest of ex-District Attorney Wil
liam Travers Jerome, of New York,
on a charge of gambling. Jerome
spent several hours in the cell for
merly occupied by Thaw. If convicted,
he can be sent to jail for a year.
May Jump His Bond.
Attorneys Charles D. White and W T .
L. Shurtleff, of the Thaw counsel, as
sured Mr. Jerome that they had
nothing to do with his arrest, and
guaranteed to defend him free of
charge.
Jerome said if Thaw was deported
this evening, he would follow him into
the United States, even if it did vio
late his bail bond.
Jerome will be arraigned for a hear
ing to-morrow morning at 9 o’clock.
It was the irony of fate that Je
rome was placed in the same cell that
Thaw had occupied.
Crown Prosecutor Hanson object
ed to bail and wanted Jerome held
in jail, but he was overruled by Mag
istrate McKee.
The warrant for Jerome’s arrest
was based on an incident which hap
pened yesterday. While Jerome and
his detectives were seated in a tour
ing car outside of the immigration of
fice awaiting the result of the Thaw
deportation hearing, the former New
York District Attorney began to while
away the tedious time with a game of
“penny ante.” Jerome lost nearly 50
cents.
Wilford Aldridge, a local business
man, * *twore to the affidavit that Je
rome gambled. The warrant was is
sued and given to Constable John An
drews, who handed the warrant to
Jerome this morning just after he had
eaten breakfast.
Taken to Same Jail as Thaw.
“What’s this?” said Jerome, taking
the paper. He read it. Then he
laughed.
“All right, officer, lead on,” he said.
From the office of the Justice of
the Peace. Jerome was taken to the
same jail in which Thaw was confined
when he was first brought ficre.
Within a few minutes more than
1,000 persons surrounded the jail.
There was a great deal of specula
tion as to whether complications
might not result from the arrest of a
New York State officer. Jerome is
commissioned as a special assistant
attorney general of New York State.
The penalty on conviction for gam
bling here is one year in jail.
A lawyer rushed to Thaw with the
new ».
The fugitive laughed heartily. “The
learned counsel for the chicken trust
is in bad. is he?” said Thaw. “I al
ways said that man would come to
no good end.”
Associate counsel of Jerome in the
Thaw case demanded thit bail be
given and the ex-District Attorney he
arraigned at once. It was t oon. how
ever before Jerome was released on
bail.'
While Jerome was Deing taken to
jail and after he was lodged in Jail
there was a wild demonstration.
