Application for Removal From
Duchess County Jail Denied -
and Confinement Will
- ' - . , .
be-Closer
(By the Associated Press.)
Pouehkeepsie. N. Y., Sept. 3. Al
though an application to remove Harry
K. Thaw from the Dutchess county
Jail here to some other institution was
denied today. It may yet have the ef
fect of stopping the frequent trips to
Fishkill Landing in the proceedings
before a referee which have been the
source of so much annoyance to Sher
iff Kobert W. Chanler, while they have
provided j the prisoner with no little
diversion. . ...
The application was made by Ed
ward E. Perkins, attorney for Sheriff
Chanler, before Supreme Court Justice
Morschauser. tlt was Dased on the re
port of an inspection made by the
Secretary of the State Prison Comrali
sion and was supported by an affidavit
of the sheriff that the . Jail is pot! a
suitable place for the confinement of
Thaw as an insane person.-
It was Justice Morschauser himself
who committed Thaw to the Dutchess
county jail tecporarlly last May, pend
ing the determination of habeas corpus
proceedings Instituted by Thaw.-to ob
tain his release from the Matteawan
asylum. After a trial Judge Mor
schauser adjudged Thaw Insane and
ordered him re-committed to Mattea
wan. . Before the order could be car
ried out however. Thaw obtained from
Justice Miller a new Writ of habeas
corpus and Judge Mills ordered him
detained in the county Jail here until
the new writ should be heard. This
hearing was adjourned to September
21, and Judge Mills is then to be asked
to allow Thaw a Jury trial on the
question of his aanit.
Judge Morschauser said today In
declining to entertain the motion of
Mr. Perkins that not only did judicial
comity restrain him from Interfering
with Judge Mills order, but also that
there appeared to be no proceeding
needed for doing so.
