And the panic neems to have remained with him. Here in the hotel where he remains under guard. Thaw insets that the officers Rleep Just outside the door. The presence of Jerome fills him with 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 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 ha* 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 Scores Immigration Officers. Also, in these momenta of logical behavior, Thaw is loudly indignant in his attack on Canadian authorities for arbitrarily hustling him over border. He and hla lawyers charge that the action was without legal basis. His hopes were that the courts of the Dominion would heed his 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 n better variety of juJtlce 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 imtnl gration authorities. Jerome and his all es 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- Mes>ed hv 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 were bitter In their attack on tho 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 eves of New York authorities, could not conspire, in the sense of the law. Jerome Grows Impatient. The fight probably will consume several days o’.* a week. **o that even If the fugitive loses he will not be taken to Matteawan before late this j week. Jerome is growing Impatient j over tbs. eti bbernnea^ of Thaw’s fight. anJ Immediately ’upon his ar rival he sought audiences with Gov ernor Felker and Attorney General 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 himsvlf among a people who are not nearly so uni versal in their admiration of him as were the Canadians. There are ele ments nmong the populace who are emphatically favorable toward his suit, it Is true, but there are many New Hampshire men who stoutly maintain that lie has no right to re main in New Hampshire. Not that the opinion of the public l« significant in this matter, but thn; opinion hap been a spectacular fact< t in the case so far. and probably will continue so.

H. Sept. 13.— For the first lime 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 all written by Thaw himself. Q. Why do you suppose such un 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 vour friends were forced to declare that you had 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 may be a desire to keep hidden a curious relation between a lawyer who acted as counsel for the late Mr White and the Gerry So- 1 Q for Prevention of Cruelty -A.

Not tho least, tho 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. Nieholl was counsel for Mr. White’s associates, as 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 Blunk and Blank Q. E>idn’t your law’yer speak of this l ist summer?—A. Yes. he eVplained that infiueiv al 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 ; wish that these things should not come out?” Q. It has been said that you as saulted a man named Robinson when, in defiance of the writ of the court | of Kinas bench, you were carried out j of that coiin'8 Jurisdiction?—A.
