Washington, Aug. 28.?Americans in Mexico are heeding President Wilson's warning to get out. State department officials believe that two weeks nence there will be scarcely a j thousand of them left in the southern j republic. Although many had refused J to consider leaving before the word came of the president's urgent advice, hundreds have been starting for home or abroad daily for three weeks. It is estimated that nearly 10,000, or about as many as still remain in Mexico have gotten away. Of these now preparing to leave, 1,000 will need help from the government, so the $100,000 appropriation asked for by Secretary Bryan some time ago to aid the refugees will be needed immediately. Of tne 4,000 about 3,000 will come out by the <aast coast ports and the northern HVio nthor 1 0(10 thrnn^h west UU1 U^l 9 CAJ. VtUVA V V V^?. v v,0? coast ports. Since last February the State department has aided, it was said today, between 4,000 and 5,000 refugees, furnishing transportation in some instances, in others securing special rates or reductions which the indi- j viduals themselves could not get. Department officials estimated that there were about 60,000 Americans in i Mexico two or three weeks ago. Am-1 bassador Wilson placed the number as high as 75,000. The price of foodstuffs in certain parts of Mexico has become almost prohibitive, it is reported, meat having gone from 80 cents to $2 a kilo, . and eggs from 5 cent to 20 cents -each. MAY BRING THAW INTO OPE> COURT 3Tew Move By >'ew York Lawyers Reported?His Chauffeur Free. Sherbrooke, Aug. 30.?It was reported in Sherbrooke early today that Superior Judge Hutchinson, returning from his vacation, has agreed to grant to Canadian lawyers acting for New York State a writ of habeas corpus calling for the production of Harry K. Thaw in court at once. This move, if carried out, might deteat Thaw's lawyers in their attempts to keep him in jail indefinitely. William Travers Jerome, who represents New York State here in the Thaw case, refused to affirm or deny the report. Judge Hutchinson is a brother judge of Superior Judge Globen an. v ^Dominion immigration authorities, -who had left town, hurried back here no await new developments. Samuel Jacobs, chief counsel for New York, held a conference in the matter with "Mr. Jerome that lasted until midnight. Sherbrooke, Que., Aug. 29.?New YorK; State made no step forward to day in its fight to return Harry K. maw to Maueawan asyiuiu. ne remains in the Sherbrooke jail on a "commitment which will not bring him into court until the king's benc'-i convenes in October and William Travers Jerome, conferring with Canadian counsel, has been unable to secure the throwing of the bolt that detains him. "Gentleman Roger" Thompson, erstwhile Times square chauffeur, lounged about the hotel corridors this afternoon, lunched and dined near Jerome, wrote letters to friends, walked the streets unmolested and kept silence as regards the Thaw case. He was released on $500 bail today on the double charge of having entered Canada ff'*by stealth" and of (having aided an undesirable, Thaw, to cross the Doraer.

I which 'je drove Thaw away from the asylum. "I would not squeal if you gave me j the whole town of Sherbrooke," said I Rntroi- "T htliPVA Thaw is sanp anri I I wouldn't say one word to liurt his 1 case. I want to see him get away.

But I wrote her today telllinor hpr nor tn hp T am a British subject and I hope to be?t this case ! and just now it would be crazy for j me to give the details of the trip! with Thaw. j "After driving him away from Mat- ! j teawan I came with him into Can-1 ada because a lawyer told me they ! ] could not touch me up here. I was j the one who hired W. L. Shurtleff at Coaticook to look out for Thaw. Then I came on here to Sherbrooke." j Officers Go Home. District Attorney Conger and Sheriff Hornbuck of Duchess county returned home today. They had waited here since Wednesday last hoping Thaw would be turned over to the immigration authorities and be deported to Vermont. Jerome andj Franklin Kennedy, deputy attorney general of Xew York, said tonight their plans are indefinite. They conferred all afternoon trying to hit on a means of getting Thaw out of jail, but without success. Thaw's lawyers, having succeeded in keeping him in jail and thus thwarted 'his deportation, are waiting j for the other side to move. All in- I dications presaged a long wait for j Jerome unless some one higher took j a honri in thf> case. In the parlor of his home at Coaticook Justice Dupuis, frequently interrupted by Mrs. Dupuis, talked j tonight of the attemtps made to have him quash the Thaw commitment. "I didn't think the comitment was regular when I signed it," said Dupuis. "But the sheriff who had Thaiw was very anxious he should be held, i They were so insistent that I allow- > I ed myself to be persuaded. "On Wprinpsdav. I believe, some v/i* , men who called themselves immigra-1 tion authorities, called on me. They i wanted me to go right to Sherbrooke,' give Thaw a hearing and turn him lose. But I could not do that. They i had a machine waiting but I did not' go. I had a horse I wanted to sell that afternoon. A while later one of them came back. He wanted me to ! sign over my rights to another magistrate, but I told him I thought I was capable of dealing with the situation myself. British fair play won't suffer in my hands." Mrs. Dupuis entered: "Let me tell you,'' she said. "I'm for Thaw. I , wouldn't hurt him for the world. My I husband is not going to do anything | hasty." GOES TO SUMER HOME President Still Hopeful of Mexican Settlement?Lind Put In Charge. WQcViinprtnn Ansr. 20.?President! :Wilson left Washington late today for! the summer capital at Cornish, N. H? stMl hopeful of favorable culmination of the negotiations undertaken ' by this country to bring about peace in Mexico. Although no affirmative action cn either side had been leach| ed up to the time of the president's ! departure, encouraging dispatcnes were received from Nelson O'Shaughnessy. in charge of the American embassy at Mexico City, bearing on the general situation. These reached the president a few hours before train time and led him to determine upon a short rest over Labor day. Nothing in the advices from Mexico City gave the administration of flciais eause lor particular aniieuj and it was the conviction that a lull in the diplomatic exchange would be beneficial to all concerned. The president, it is known, feels that good i may come from an opportunity for the position of this government to "sink in." Excitemeitt subsiding over the ex f : change of proposals and replies would, it was believed, lead to further negotiations between the officials of Mexico City and John Lind, the personal representative of this government. T n ( of If Tl?cnrof!i\n JL U IXV A/lOV* ViiVU. Mr. Lind, it was asserted tonight, had been instructed from Washington to continue to act at his own discretion as to whether he should await developments at Vera Cruz or return to Mexico City. Up to a late hour no dispatcnes had been received at the state department from Mr. Lind. Sec| retary Bryan said before leaving for an overnight trip in Pennsylvania I I thor ho hplipv-prl thp envov would re- i ! main in Vera Cruz tonight. Early in the day Mr. Bryan conferred with I the president over the reply of Senor Gamboa, Mexican secretary of foreign afters., to Mr. Lind's second note. They also considered a message sent by Mr. Lind to Washington yesterday afternoon. That these latest i communications gave reason for hopeful expectations was freely ad__ *ij a miuea, Mr. Lind, it was reported, proba- j bly would make the naxt move in the J negotiations, which the president ! emphatically asserted in his message j had not been closed and could be re-' Sumed on the initiative of either na- j tion. The fact that the Mexico City j officials in their second note of reply hid receded from the demand for an exchange of accredited ambassadors, I it was pointed out, left an opening | for future moves. The view was expressed that the Gamboa reply to the second American note might actuate Mr. Lind to address a third note to the officials of the Huerta govern-' ment. Acting at his own discretion, it was suggested, tne American rep- i resentative might forward a message to Mexico City from Vera Cruz be- j fore determining upon going to the j Mexican capital in person for a re-1 newal of direct negotiations. Discussed Situation. Before deciding to go to Cornish, President Wilson discussed the situation at length with cabinet officers and arrangements were made whereby he could be. notified at once of any developments. Should anything happen to require his presence in Washington before Tuesday, he planned to return at a moment's notice. Mr. Tumulty, secretary to the president, remained in Washington tonight to ! be in direct touch with developments, planning to go to his New Jerseyhome tomorrow, however, upon the return of Secretary Bryan. Hundreds of telegrams and letters reached the Wliite House from all i parts of the country expressing ap- | proval of President Wilson's message ] on Mexico. These were not made i public but the president is known to have been highly gratified at the sympathetic reception his course had received.
