Cool, Masterful Pose He Assumed in Canada Disappears When He Faces Jerome Under Stars and Strifes—Angry With Dominion. Pr parations U nder Way to Speed Extradition From New Hamp shire to Matteawan—Array of Counsel Retained for Struggle.! OOLKBROOK, N H.. Sept 13.— Harry Thaw, far from maintaining the cool, masterful p'»®e that he af fected when he began hln 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 Into a panic of indecision. His plans were disarranged lie had no means of making good the escape for which his freedom gave him oppor tunity. And the panic Heems 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 tills him with j terror. Added reason was given to his fear when requisition papers calling for his extradition from New Hampshire | to New York State were approved by 1 Acting Governor Glynn, of New York, j at the request of the authorities of j Dutchess County. The papers were I directed to Governor Felker, of New | Hampshire, who has announced that j he recognizes Mr. Glynn's right to Issue them. However, there come moments of j calm, In which he plans to continue his flght against return to New York i soil. He announced to-day that he j ha** employed a retinue of lawyers to conduct his flght here, and that he keeps in touch with his advocates In Canada, who are endeavoring to ob tain his legal return to Canadian soil Scores Immigration Officors. Also. In these moments of logical behavior, Thaw Is loudly Indignant In his 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 wguld heed Ms plea and 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 Is disgruntled. "I hope to get a better variety of justice under the Stars and Stripes.” he said to-day. In talking of his plans- to flght 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 lmml gratlon authorities. Jerome and his allies who have been pursuing Thaw are not yet over the fright they re ceived when they found the fugitive had been released. For three hours they scoured the countryside, ob- wcised 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, bo* w'ere bitter In their attack on thop who sent Thaw across the border free The flght, 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 eves of New York authorities, could not conspire. In the sense of the law. Jcrom« Grows Impatient. The flght probably will consume several days or a week, mo that even If the fugitive loses he will not be taken to Matteawan before late this week. Jerome Is growing Impatient over tlu r11 bbcrnnaaa of Thaw's flght. anJ Immediately upon his ar rival he sought audiences with Gov ernor Felker and Attorney Genera] Tuttle, of New Hampshire, to obtain from them the promise of no delay In the hearing With the time for the hearing at hand. Thaw finds hirmvlf among a people who are not nearly so uni versal In their admiration of him as were the Canadians. There are ele ments among the populace who are emphatically favorable toward his suit. It is true, but there are many New Hampshire men who stoutly maintain that he has no right to re main in New Hampshire Not that the opinion of the public l- significant In this matter, but tha; opinion ha.M been a spectacular factor in the case so far, and probably will continue so. The Monadnock House, the hotel where he Is held, has be come a public debating Held, its lobby bring crowded with men for Thaw and against Thaw. CO DEBROOK. N. H.. Sept. 13 — I For the first time in nearly a week, the special correspondent of The Georgian was able to-day to obtain an interview with Thaw. The ques tions and answers were ail written by Thaw himself. Q Why do you suppose* such un- i usual methods, special trains, etc. are used In pursuit of you?—A We supposed It was part of the tender care with which a few New York offi cials have been shielding the names of Messrs. Blank and Blank Q. But in Canada you published a statement that you and your friends w’ere forced to declare that you bad no Intention of uncovering those names?—A Yes. and now we are bound not to. Q. Then why this persistent chase at the cost of the taxpayers of New York?—A It has been suggested that one reason i my be a desire to keep hidden a curious relation between a lawyer w ho acted as counsel for the late Mr. White and the Gerry So ciety. Q. Do you mean the New York So- ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children?—A. Yes, there was nothin* unprofessional in this, but we are told that /his secret has done us much harm. Mr. Gerry is not concerned in title?—A. Not the least; the control of that society was taken from the excellent Commodore long ago. Q. Did Judge Olcott testify some thing about this last summer?—A. Yes. Judge Olcott testified that Mr. Nlcholi was counsel for Mr. White’s associates, ns well as for Mr White Q. That he was counsel for Messrs Blank and Blank?—A. Yes; and his firm also is counsel for the children's society. Q How many people know’ this?— A. That is the trouble. A great many people know it. so it can’t be com pletely concealed like the names of Messrs. Blank and Blank. Q. Didn’t y our lawyer speak of this last summer?—A Yes; he explaineo that influential gentlemen fiom the beginning wanted to pretend 1 was Insane to keep these facts from com ing out. Q Didn't Jerome himself say the same thing to the jury that acquitted you?—A. Jerome said, “Is there any thing strange that these people should i wish that these things should not come out V* Q It has been said that you as saulted a man named Robinson when. In defiance of the writ of the court of Kings bench, you were carried out of that court’s Jurisdiction?—A. That I w as an erabr Q.

"There is nothing In all this world that I would not do to help Harry If he would come to me and make a request,” continued Mrs. Thaw. “He realizes that I have sacrificed every thing In the past for his happiness and that any one who has gone as far as I have gone would not ‘quit’ until they had won a complete victory.” "Do you believe you could help Harry iri any material way in his flght for freedom?” "Yes, Harry realizes that.
