Cool, Masterful Pose He Assumed in Canada Disappears When He Faces Jerome Under Stars and Stripes—Angry With Dominion, Preparations Under Way to Speed Extradition From New Hamp shire to Matteawan—Array of Counsel Retained for Struggle. COXiEBROOK, N. H„ Sept. 18 — Harry Thaw, far from maintaining the oool, masterful pose that he af fected when he began his fight against returning to Matteawan, is living in a state of terror. The unexpected freedom given him when the Cana dian authorities without notice hus tled him over the border has unset tled him. Free for a few hours, Thaw was thrown Irlto a panic of Indecision. His plans were disarranged. He had no means of making good the escape for which his freedom gave him oppor-- tunlty. And the panic teems to have remained with him. Here In the hotel where he remains under guard, Thaw Insists that the officers sleep just outside the door. The presence of Jerome fills him with terror. Added reason was given to h1s fear when requisition papers calling for his extradition from New Hampshire to New York State were approved by Acting Governor Glynn, of New York, at the request of the authorities of Dutchess County. The papers were directed to Governor Felker, of New Hampshire, who has announced that he recognizes Mr. Glynn’s right to Issue them. However, there come moments of calm, In which he plans to continue his fight against return to New York soil. He announced to-day that he has employed a retinue of lawyers to conduct his fight here, and that he keeps In touch with his advocates In Canada, who are endeavoring to ob tain his legal return to Canadian soil. Soores Immigration Officers. Also, In these moments of logical behavior, Thaw Is loudly Indignant In h1s attack on Canadian authorities for arbitrarily hustling him over the border. He and his lawyers charge that the action was without legal basis. His hopes were that the courts of the Dominion would heed his plea end prevent extradition. In Canada he was glowing In his praise of Can ada and Its people, declaring his be lief that he would obtain justice. Now he 1s disgruntled. *T hope to get a better variety of justice under the Stars and Stripes," he said to-day. in talking of his plans to fight against returning to New York. Oddly enough, Thaw and his ene mies are of a single mind in denounc ing the action of the Canadian Immi gration authorities. Jerome and his allies who have been pursuing Thaw are not yet over tho fright they re ceived when they found the fugitive had been released. For three hours they scoured the countryside, ob sessed by the fear that they would lose their quarry. And now they are Indignantly talking of the high-hand ed action of the Immigration officials. Jerome and Deputy Attorney Gen eral Kennedy, of New York, both were bitter In their attack on those who sent Thaw across the border free. The fight, transferred from Canada to New Hampshire, will take on a slightly different aspect, Jerome and his allies will attempt to obtain Thaw’s return to New York on a warrant charging him with conspir ing to escape from the asylum, a criminal charge. Thaw’s lawyers will attempt to offset this with the argu ment that Thaw being Insane In the eyes of New York authorities, could not conspire. In the sense of the law. Jerome Grows Impatient. The fight probably will consume several days or a week, so that even If the fugitive loses he will not be taken to Matteawan before late this week . Jerome Is growing Impatient over the stubbornness of Thaw's aght and Immediately upon hisiar- rwal' he sought audience, with Gov- .iL nr Felker and Attorney General Settle of New Hampshire, to obtain from them the promise of no delay In lh WTt1f r the time for the hearing at hand Thaw finds himself among a people Who are not nearly so uni- Continued on Paae 4.

EXISTENCE RESEMBLES LOOM Intercourse Across the Chasm of Death May Be Gradually Attained, He Asserts. Special Cable to The American, BIRMINGHAM, ENGLAND, Sept. 18.—"I am one of those who think that the methods of science are not so limited in scope as has been thought, that they can be applied much more widely and that the psyohio region can be studied and brought under law, too.” So declared the learned Sir Oliver Lodge, president of the British As sociation for the Advancement of Science, In his address at the opening of the association’s meeting here to day. And again the erudite president said: “Already the facts examined have convinced me that memory and affec tion are not limited to that associa tion with matter by which alone they can manifest themselves here and now, and that personality persists be yond personal death.” So, despite his denial that he would invade the psychic region in his ad dress Sir Oliver did enter it, but he watched his every step, guarded his every word. “Keystone of Evolution.” Said he to his great audience: “If we have learned from science that evolution is real, we have learned a great deal. Surelv evolution Is not an illusion: surely the universe pro- gresses in time. Time and space and matter are abstractrons, but are none the less real; they are data given by experience; and time is the keystone of evolution. “I see the whole of material exist ence as a steady passage from past to future, only the single instant w'hich we call the present being ac tual. The past is not non-existent, however; it is stored in our memo ries; there is a record of it in matter, and the present is based upon it; the future is the outcome of the present and Is the product of evolution. Life Is Like a Loom. “Existence is like the output from a loom. The pattern, the design for the weaving, is in some sort ‘there’ already; but whereas our looms are mere machines, once the guiding cards have been fed into them, the Loom of Time Is complicated by a multitude of free agents who can modify the web. • • • “Either w r e are immortal beings or we are not. We may not know our destiny, but we must have a destiny of some sort. Those who make de nials are Just as likely to be wrong as those who make assertions; In fact, denials are assertions thrown into negative form. “Scientific men are looked up to as authorities and should be careful not to mislead. Science may not be able to reveal human destiny, but It cer tainly should not obscure it. Things are as they are, whether we find them out or not. Asks for a Fair Trial. “Allow us, anyhow, to make the at tempt. Give us a fair field. Let those who prefer the materialistic hypothe sis by all means develop their thesis as far as they can; but let us try what we can do in the psychical re gion and see which wins. “Our methods are really the same as theirs—the subject matter differs. Neither should we abuse the other for making the attempt. “In Justice to myself and my co workers I must leave on record our oonviction that occurrences now re garded as occult can be explained and reduced to order by the methods of science carefully and persistently ap plied,” said Sir Oliver, on whom uni versities have showered honorary de grees. “The evidence, to my mind, goes to prove that discarnate intelligence, un der certain conditions, may interact with us on the material side, thus in directly coming within our scientific ken; and that gradually we may hope to attain some understanding of the nature of a larger, perhaps the real, existence, and of the conditions reg ulating intercourse across the chasm.” Rivals Shave Rich ' Youth's Upper Lip Young Man Wins Girls’ Smile, but When He Does So He Loses Mustache. SANTA BARBARA, Sept. 13.— When Mayo Newhall, Jr., scion of a wealthy and prominent San Francisco family, came to Santa Barbara a cou ple of weeks ago for a social visit, he had to Introduce himself to his many Santa Barbara and Monteclto friends, for he was changed in looks.

Multiplane Intended to Carry Pas sengers Across Ocean Is Being Built in Savannah. SAVANNAH, Sept. 13.—A GeorgiV rnan, with ambitious vision, is plan ning an aeroplane trip across the At- lantc Ocean. The time for the ven ture is not far distant, and the busy hammering and filing that can be heard in the workshop near Savannah tells that every preparation is being made. it is Captain Matthew A. Batson, a retired army officer, who will make this challenge to destiny. He has been working for years toward thLa end, and has perfected a unique type of flying machine that is popularly known as the Batson hydro-aero plane. So certain are Captain Batson and his friends that the daring venture will be successful that a concern has been organized, known as the IJJat- soii Aero Company, incorporated un der the laws of New Jersey, with a capital stock of $300,000, “to operate between Savannah, Ga., and Liver pool England, a line of passenger- carrying air craft." according to the words of tho charter.

Models Fly Faithfully. Tho first flight of the hydro-aero plane will be made early. The mod els of the machine have flown faith fully. The entire machine Is now as sembled, the flying section having been fixed to the boat hull several days ago.

ALBANY, Sept. IS.—For the first time in the history of New York State a chief executive will go to trial for “high crimes and misdemeanor*" when Governor William Sulzer faoes, on Thursday next, a majority of the Senate and a majority of the Court of Appeals, sitting as a high court of impeachment. Special counsel for the State of New York to prosecute the impeach ment will summon Sulzer to the bar. Aaron J. Levy, majority leader of the Assembly and chairman of the Assembly Board of Managers, will have direct charge of the prosecution, for it was the Assembly that im peached Sulzer, as prescribed by the Constitution. Sulzer, who still main tains his right tA- the Governorship, will be defended by a brilliant array of counsel. With Sulzer on trial the battle be tween New York's “People's Govern or,” and Tammany Hall, the political organization that made him and is now setting out to break him, will near Its end. It Is a political quarrel that will go down in history. It will be a dramatic moment when Sulzer steps before the court of Im peachment, with Chief Justice Cullen, of the Court of Appeals, presiding. There have been many rumors of what Sulzer’s defense will be, but no definite statement of what course it will take could be obtained lirom anv of his counsel to-day. Sulzer Appears Confident. On the eve of his trial Sulzer ap pears confident. So, for that matter, do hie enemies. They say that tho court of impeachment will not be af fected in any way by the feeling of popular sympathy for Sulzer. It will be a cold, calm proposition of wheth er Sulzer was or was not guilty of malfeasance in office—a question of whether, as charged by the Assem bly, he did or did not speculate In Wall street with campaign funds and of whether he did or did not fail o give a true and correct list of his cam paign contributions In his sworn statement of campaign receipts and expenditures. It is possible that a dramatic, per haps pathetic, touch will be given the proceedings by the introduction of the name of Mrs. Sulzer. It Is said to be likely that Mrs. Sulzer will stand by the statement credited to her In which she is alleged to have said that it was she who speculated In Wall street with campaign funds, without the Governor's knowledge. If this is to be the Sulzer line of defense, Mrs. Sulzer will be forced to make very humiliating admissions upon the wit ness stand, an ordeal that would be very trying to her and a proceeding which even Sulzer’s worst enemies would prefer to avoid. Before the Court of Impeachment can commence to hear the charges drawn by the Assembly, there must be at least four of the Judges of the Court of Appeals present and at least 26 members of the Senate. Justices Who Try Case. Edgar M. Cullen is Chief Justice of the Court of Appeals. Associated with him are Justices John Clinton Gray, William E. Werner, Willard Bartlett, Frederick Collins. William H. Ouddeback and John W. Hogan. There are three other associate Justices, not elected, ns were all of the foregoing, but designated by Governors at differ ent times because of the press of liti gation before the court. Emory A. Chase was designated an associate justice in 1906. Frank H. Hiscook is also an associate justice, designated by Governor Sulzer, Justice Nathan Miller was designated by Sulzer him self in January last. There is much difference of opin ion as to whether these designated Justices will bu Aerallv entitled, ee-eit,
