Thaw Illegally Held?.

The justices of the appellate division of the supreme court agreed Friday that there was some doubt in their minds whether the state of New York was right in their action in the case of Harry Thaw. After the acquittal of Thaw on the charge of conspiracy he was extradited from New Hampshire and returned to the hospital for the criminal insane at Matteawan. Thaw’s defense that after he was freed from the charges preferred against him that he should immediately be turned back to the state from where he was extradited.
