"Thaw's gone?escaped!" he sl^^H ed, bursting into Dr. Keib's prese^BB And in a moment the hunt was.jJ^H Automobile la Fast. The great black car flashed' thunderbolt through Stormville, JT i miles east of Matteawna, along % road to the Connecticut line. risers in the little hamlet saw th|t men?and Thaw?crouching* low p escape the sweep of their rlih through the air. They were goingfro ] miles an hour. They were 10 nj}_ utes out of Matteawan. Stormville marveled at their sjiid and watched them melt away in ye dust of the State road. v * M \ The limousine had been left >e-^ hind. At the speed at which the t iring car travelled through Storm lie it should have reached the State ne within half an hour. Barnum's breathless declaratioi at the asylum brought Dr. Kieb to lis feet like a pistol shot. Within a ioment he was standing at the 1 le_ phone and as Barnum poured he story into his ears he repeate over the wire to police headquar rs. Matteawan became the centre < a widening ripple of telephone and elegraph alarms as Dr. Kieb plai ied pursuit. A Fruitless Chase. He might as well have trie^ to chase a 12 inch shell. The ten mi ute start, the high power of the cd in which Thaw made his flight, f the nearness of the Connecticut Kate line towards which Thaw was Mading and the inferior power ofl the pursuing cars militated againstjhim and made the chase hopeless. Atfter he had driven in pursuit he metlWilliam Flannigan, a livery man. "I saw him," Flannigan shouted. "He was near Fishkill village and going 60 miles an hour. I saw him coming and just had time to drowd my horses close over to one side of the road. He'd have hit me sure. Just let him keep on; he'll break his , own neck." Flannigan said he recognized Thaw sitting on the rear seat of the touring car. The limousine was tailing the big car, Flannigan said Dr. Kieb, realizing the futility of the chase, called it off and went^back to Matteawan. Before starting, Dr. Kieb ntl^fcd ''ffSmlf^?'^nts,Tirf the eastern of the county. None of the Awnt near the State line, however,Iwks able to give any information aLout the two cars. The last definite ilsws was from Stormville. j Two Koutes Open. After Thaw left Stormville he lad two routes open to the Connect cut line, one by way of Luddington, C armel and Brewster to Mill Plains, ive miles beyond Brewster. The other way by way of Pauling to the Slate line. The latter is the best road for an automobile. 1 The road by Brewster would h^ve taken him over a rough country part of the way and would have been more liable to have caused his halt by telephone. Just before Brewster is reached, however, there Is a back road leading to the Connecticut line and which would have taken him away from all observation until the Connecticut line was reached. Which road he took no one knew. According to the account given by Dr. Kieb, when jBarnum opened the ,>'ate to allow the milkman to enter, ho let it remain open and, far as Dr. Xieb could judgei, had quietly stood by and allowed the prisoner to walk out. It was impossible today to obtain an intoruiom TJ .. . ? I ? ?.V? TT4VU JL/ai UUIIlp as he had been placed in custody by the hospital authorities. Dr . Kieb has offered a personal reward of $f>00 for Thaw's apprehension, in addition to the $50 usually given by the Stat# in such cases. < | ?fr Wood's High-Grade Seeds.

Seedsmen, - Richmond, Va. c V A Rigid Investigation. rigid investigation begun with delay, inclined Dr. Kieb tonight Hhe belief that Thaw planned flight R? yacht in Long Island sound and Ifct if he reached the yacht it was W relays of automobiles, stationed |kmg the road to throw pursuers off fee track. [This investigation disclosed the tact, Dr. Kieb added, that four of the men who aided Thaw came to Matteawan in the black touring car last Friday and registered at the Holland hotel as Roger Thompson, Richard D. Beetle, Michael O'Keefe and Eugene Duffy, all of New York city. No more powerful car has ever been housed in a local garage. 7*he fifth man aiding in Thaw's escape, according to the investigation, came to Matteawan Saturday. He joined the group at the hotel unfier the name of Thomas Flood of New York city. He is said to have driven the big car when Thaw escaped. The four men who arrived Friday were described as "rather sporty individuals" by William Gordon, proprietor of the hotel. They spent their time mostly in the barroom where they made a name as free spenders Gordon had a talk with Thomson Saturday which caused him to open his eyes wide when he heard of Thaw's escape. Helping Good Fellows. "Thomson had been drinking pretty much the night before and had started in again that morning," Gordon said. "He talked about a great many things and seemed to have a large fund of information. I wondered what his line of business was and asked him. "He waited for a long time before he answered. Then he said: " 'My business is helping good fellows who have gotten into trouble. The five men came down from their rooms at 6:45 o'clock this morning and paid their bills. There was a considerable waiting before the cars were ready and at this the men became impatient. Finally they drew up at the front en J J i- 1. iL. L 1 -M uiaiivc auu x' iuuu UUUA.

The two automobiles proceeded leisurely along the main street in the direction of the asylum. Employees at the garage said the smaller car could not possibly develop a greater speed than 50 mile3 an hour. This apparently accounts for it not being seen when^m ^ jifowani H. i^rnumTt^^^^^^ntP under arrest, is a man of excellent |* reputation, nis close friends are strong in their belief that he did 1 not aid in Thaw's escape. He is about 57 years of age and for 20 year has been employed at the hospital, where he was looked upon as one of the mor-t trustworthy men in the institution. Thaw's escape was aided by the fact that he has constantly declared he would not accept freedom unless it came by legal process. The hospital authorities, as a result, had Riven him liberties which many other prisoners did not enjoy. In fact he has been regarded as a "trusty" for some time. The asylum housed Thaw not as a murderer, but as an insane prisoner. The jury which sent him here acquitted him ofthe murder of Stanford White on the same grounds that caused his incarceration in the k. U.l * . > .... uspuai mr me criminal insane? j that of insanity. Hence he could not > be brought back to New York on the ' old murder charge. He could not, j therefore be arrested in any other State for extradition, the hospital authorities said tonight, as he is charg. 1 ed with nc crime. In this view the hospital authorities were supported by Dr. Austin , Flint, the expert of New York who < testified in all the criminal proceed- ' ings against Thaw, Dr. Charles Kennedy of New York, who appeared several times as Thaw's counsel in the various insanity hearings, and by other lawyers. Howard H. Barnum, the gateman whom Thaw eluded in his dash for the waiting automobile, was lodged r in the county jail at Poughkeepsie tonight on the charge of aiding and abetting Thaw in his escape. Sherig Hornbeck and John E. Mack of , the district attorney's office took Bar- J num in an automobile tothe jail. An ? all night "third degree" ordeal awaited him there, it is said.
