OTTAWA, Auk. 21. A. new phase of the
Thaw case developed here this afternoon
in a statement of one of the officials of
tho Department of Immigration that
there Is a strong possibility of Thaw be
ing turned over direct to the New York
authorities. It appears that the practice.
In deporting lunatics has been to consult
tho nearest United States Immigration In
spector as to what place the lunatic
should tie sent back. It custom la fol
lowed In this case tho. man consulted
would be John Clarke, United States ln-
spector at Montreal, and his desire as to
deportation would bo complied with.
"A possible obstacle to this plan would
be that Thaw's lawyers might compel
the Canadian authorities to provo that he
is a lunatic Rather than go to this ex
pensive proceduro the Immigration au
thorities -would prefer simply to reject
the .fugitive when he crossed the border.
Bryan Will Not Help.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-Secretary
Bryan today sent the following telegram
tq aovernor William Sulzer, Albany,
N. T.:
"Thia case of Thaw, being one which in
Its present- aspect Involves the applica
tion of Canadian immigration laws, this
government cannot act officially. Steps
havo been' taken to lay the Information
as to his escape Informally before the
Canadian authorities." k
Sulzer asked that the Canadian im
migration authorities be requested to re
turn Thaw to Rouse's Point, N. T. Sec
retary Wilson, who has the immigration
bureau, today vent this dispatch to Act
ing Governor Glynn and Attorney General
Cairo ody:
"I am unable to find any law which
Would authorize, tho Department of
Labor to ask the Canadian government
to deport-Karry IC Thaw to the stata of

taken by the Department of State to
bring ,tho matter to the attention of the
Canadian government through the proper
diplomatic channels."

LONDON, England. Aug. 23.-A plea
for a uniform International extradition
law Is made in the Lew Journal, a logo!

of the deportation of Harry IC. Thaw
from Canada.
"In the present conditions," the Law
Journal says, "the most dangerous homi
cidal manlao Is a free roan when he
crosses the borders of any British pos
lesslon. The - moral of the situation is
lhat the governments of the civilized
powers should make a serious endeavor
to formulate and adopt a uniform and
logical system of International extradi
tion to replace the present cumberous
system, which Is complicated by Imper
fect treaties.'"

today to voice their objections to cer
tain sections of the Glass-Owen currency

Tho conference was called by tlo cur.

Bankers' association. Its purpose, as ex.
plained by Frederick E. Farnsworth of
New Tork, secretary of the organiza
tion. Is to aid the administration In effect
ing good currerlcy legislation.
Arrangements twore made for threo
sessions today and It is the hope of mem
bers of tho commission that by tomor
row recommendations for amendments to
the Glass-Owen measure will' have eon
agreed on which will make It satisfac
tory to a great majority of financiers of
the country.
"There are four fundamental features
of tho bill to which the bankers of the
country are almost unanimously op
posed," said Mr. Farnsworth. "They are
the government control provision, the re
serve feature, the portion referring to
note Issue by the government and the
stipulation' for tho rerundlng of the 2
per cent bonds. The ideas of the bank
ers on these scores are well known and
It Is probable that their action will fake
the form of resolutions protesting against
the objcctlonal features and suggesting
amendments."

The power and, light transmission lino
from Papllllon to Springfield, Louisville,
Meadows -and Richfield will he con

Interests that havo purchased the Ne
braska Traction and Power Co. property
with lines extending from Omana as
far as Papllllon. This does not wean
that the Interurban railway will be ex
tended at onco, but It means that the
transmission cables to supply light ard
power to the towns anong the lino will
be built.
Arthur English, receiver of the Ne
braska Traction and Power Co., has Just
returned from Peoria, I1L, whso he has
been In conference with the officials of
the McKlnley Interests that now own tho
line here. He said the material Is ordered
and should be on the way here at once.
With Mr. English from Pearla came E.
B. Hlght, engineer for the MaKinley sys
tem. He set to work at once on plans
for the extension of the power system,
and both he and Mr, EnqlUn ruy that
within a few weeks the work will be ac
tively In progress. "A force of men will
be put to work as soon as the material
arrives here," said Mr. English, "and
that should be very eoon'ns the material
was all ordered before I left Peoria."
The line will be built first bfor plans
are taken up for a power plant. It Is
likely that power will be purchased from
some local power plant for a timo nrrf
that the matter of a posslblo separate
power plant wilt then be considered.
The towns to be reached by the trans
mission lines aro towns that have been
without electrlo lighting plants m the
past and towns that have been very
anxious to get an electrlo lighting sys
tern. Also It is expected that the itorie
quarries at Louisville will consider It of
great advantage to have electric power
thus brought to their door, as hitherto
the great stone quarries and crushers
there have been operated by means of a
steam plant

Whispers of a possible grand Jdry In

mission by Judge A. L. Sutton, who pre
sides over district court room No. 1, that
tho aubjoct would be discussed at a moot
ing ot Judges to bo held at the court
house this morning.
Tho Judgo was Inclined to discourage the
Idea that tho calling of a grand Jury
was at all certain or that the question
would bo definitely settled today. He
said tho judges were not desirous of mak
ing an expense of several thousands ot
dollaro for the county It the summoning
ot a body to inquire Into violations of
the law were not necessary.
"Personally, I am not convinced that a
grand jury would find much to do," said'
Judge Sutton, "but now la the tlmo If
nny person knows of crime In high or
low places; of wrongful acts done by pub
lic officials or ot any subject which
should be Investigated, to come forward
with Information. We wilt discuss the
question of a grand Jury at a meeting of

Sentiment on the partiof the Judges ap
pears to favor opening ot district court
tho middle of September In spite ot ob
pectlons ot the Omaha Bar association,
but to draw a Jury panol only about two;
thirds the usual 'size. Then lawyers who

BOLTON THINKS SYSTEM IN

CHICAGO, Aug. 22. The system ot
study in Jhe putillc schools does not In
terest the average boy and girl, said
Prof. F. E. Dolton ot the University of
Washington In a lecture at the University
of Chicago, He supported his statement
by statistics showing that only CO per
cent of the children of school age In this
nation are found in the school rooms.
"There Is not enough opportunity In
tho schools for boys and girls to con
struct things," said Prof. Bolton. "The
desire ot the average boy and girl to
fashion and oreato -things Is not recog
nized. It Is not a square deal when we
educate tho men who are going Into
professions with courses ot Latin and
hixtory and do not educate to the same
extent thoso who expect to enter a
trade."
The speaker assetted that many of the
study rooms In the schools might be
turned Into workshops and laboratories
with good results.
