At Norton’s Mills, which is near the border, a number of newspaper cor respondents have been stationed for several days, patiently walling for developments in the Thaw case. They realised that if the Canadian Govern ment should go above the courts and deport Thaw the Matteawan fugitive certainly would be taken to that point. Reporters There to Greet Him. The watchful correspondents, there fore, were upon the Held when a dust- eovered automobile, which came from the direction of Coaticook, stopped at the Imaginary line dividing the do minion of King George and Uml* Sam. Three persons leaped from the car. half carrying another man. The ex> hausted man was Hairy Kendall Thaw, slayer of Stanford White, and the most spectacular prisoner of mod em times. Mr. Robertson told Thaw that he was at the gateway of the United States and that if he crossed he was a free man unless picked up by some of the watchful sleuths of William T. Jerome. Thaw was almost a nervous wreck from his struggle and mental anguish. His clothing was disarranged and his face showed streaks of tear-mixed dust. Several newspaper correspondents and others ran toward the scene. One recognised Thaw. Thaw saw a motor car and exclaimed: “I will give you any sum in reason If you will take me as a passenger In that car.” Dodging of Sleuths Begins. Thaw was bundled into the auto mobile without ceremony, and the party started toward Averill, a few miles eastward. Someone argued that there were a number of detec tives In that part of the country, so a dash was made back to Norton's Mills. From Nortons Mills It was de cided to go to Beecher Falls, where, Thaw thought, he might attempt to cross the border. At Beecher Falls it was decided to take another tack, and the automo bile sped on to fttewartstown. Not far from this place a stop was made at a farmhouse, where they got something to eat. Thaw was nervous and apprehensive, and kept assuring the newspaper men that he “was MEN I over the line he stood up in the car shouting, "Kidnaped! Kidnaped!” Thaw was taken from the deten tion quarters of the immigration building at Oaoticook at 8 o’clock by i hi Blake Robertson, deputy super intendent of Immigration for Canada.

The chauffeur turned on full power and the car shot forward headed to ward Vermont. It was only about 8 o’clock by thU time and there were few persona abroad. Thaw’s struggles Were frantic that It required the full e forts of Robertson find two compan ions to hold him while the chauffeur guided the car. “I am being kidnaped,” shouted the fugitive at the top of his lungs. Deputy Superintendent of Immigra tion Robertson was not kidnaping Thaw, for he bore in his pocket u warrant, signed by Minister of Jus tice Doherty, also Acting Minister of Interior, who had ordered Thaw's ejection forthwith. Wseps and Tears Hair. Thaw thought that he could not be deported because of the writ of pro hibition granted in the Court of Ap peals at Montreal, which held up the order of deportation handed down by the Immigration Board of Inquiry last week. Consequently the prisoner lost full j control of himself and raged like ji maniac. He wept and tore his hair and screamed and struggled until all in the car were exhausted. their friend and would do anything: for them if they would only help him out.” In the meantime the news had spread over the > countryside that ; Thaw was spinning over the north ern end of Vermont and New Hamp shire In an automobile. Captain John Lanyon’s private detectives, commis sioned by the State of New York and Dutchess County, New York, to take Thaw back, got on the trail. Doubles on His Track*. Then began one of the strangest chases in the annals of New England. Thaw thought by doubling on his trail he might throw his pursuers off the track. He realized that Deputy At torney Generals Jerome and Franklin Kennedy, of New York State, might have privately secured the signatures of the Governors of Vermont and New Hampshire to extradition war rants, so he headed toward Maine. Thaw spoke with H. D. Spaulding, proprietor of the Lakeside Inn at Averill. The fugitive was dissatisfied uith the speed of the car in which he was traveling, and asked directions about hiring another. ‘‘One that can go fast as the devil,” was the way the fugitive put it. How Thaw Was Put Over Border Into Vermont. COATIOOOK. QUEBEC. Sept. 10.— Harry K. Thaw was taken from the immigration station to the Vermont border at 8 o’clock this morning. A3 Thaw left the station he yelled that It was kidnaping, and as he was carried attracted a number of persons. ‘ This is entirely regular,” was Rob ertson s response to the fugitive's protestations. Robertson produced a warrant sign ed by Minister of Justice Doherty, who also is Acting Minister of the Interior, ordering the ejection of Thaw. These proceedings were taken in direct defiance of court proceedings instituted in this city by Thaw’s law yers, and in the face of an injunc tion holding up the order of deporta tion hapded down by the Immigra-f tion Board of Inquiry last week. When word was received in Mon treal from Coaticook that Thaw had been deported, it created consterna tion among Thaw’s lawyers. They had expected to hold up deportation for six months, at least, possibly a year, and, perhaps, if an appeal was taken to the Privy Council, for two years. Thaw lost complete control of him self as he was whirled through the streets of Coaticook from the Immi gration Building. Ho shouted and waved his arms until he was ex hausted. The authorities had pur posely chosen an early hour when few persons were about. Robertson had to hold Thaw in the automobile, as the fugitive struggled with all his might to leap to the ground. Thaw implored the hand ful of persons who were attracted by his screams to help him, but they did not attempt to interfere. By the forcible ejection of Thaw from Canada to-day the fight shifts to the United States, unless, by a pre arranged plan, Thaw is seized in Ver mont by private detectives employed by former District Attorney William T. Jerome, of New York, and taken back to Matteawan. That was evidently what Thaw feared as he was being taken away from Coaticook. He did not have a chance to warn his lawyers to meet him at the United States line and fight against his .seizure there by rep resentatives of New York. He also thought that Jerome had gone to Ver mont on Monday night. The virtual kidnaping of Thaw, upon orders of the Dominion Gov ernment and in actual defiance of orders from the high courts of the land, was a dramatic climax to the fight that Thaw has made against ejection. No moving picture drama could have been staged with such spectacular details. When N. K. La Flam me and Barris ter Greenshield, who were instrumen tal in holding up the Board of In quiry’s order of deportation in the Court of Appeals there, heard of the ejection of their client they were thunderstruck. At first they would not believe It. When the news got about in Coat icook that Thaw- had been taken to the line public feeling was aroused. A crowd surrounded the immigration building and there were demonstra tions against the Government and in favor of Thaw. Many women were in the crowd. “An outrage! An injustice!” screamed the crowds. In the meantime news had gone to Sherbrooke. Attorney W. L. Shurt- leff, counselor of record for Thaw, immediately got into action, but could do nothing to check the arrow-like flight of the immigration authorities’ auto, which was speeding toward Norton’s Mills, Vt., with Thaw hys terically denouncing the immigration departmtnt from the tonneau. Persons living along the highway traversed by the automobile said that the car flashed by in a cloud of dust, but above the humming of the motor could be heard the protestations of the prisoner.
