Prominent Men Of Nation Are Guests of the
Students.
JULES cAMsoN EXPRESSES HIS GRATITUDE
Degree Conferred Upon Him Taken as
Token of Good VIII for His Goun-
try-Recalls Similar Incident
Over a Century Ago.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, June 29.-The Gro Sn-
Ing event OF Harvard's commencement was
the alumni dinner, which took place in
Memorial hall after the graduation c%er-
cises yesterday. The guests included Presi-
dent Eliot, Ambassador Jules Cambon, Alex
ander Agassiz, General Leonard Wood,
Governor Roger Wolcott and Admiral Samp-
son. President Eliot opened the speech
making by reporting gifts of $l,250,OOO to
the college during the year Governor
Wolcott followed in a brief address and
Ambassador Cambon was introduced.
The French ambassador, NJ. Cambon, spoke
in French and took occasion to refer TO the
part he had taken in restoring peace be-
tween the United States and Spain and to
thank Harvard for comforting on him the
degree of LII. ID. He said

time ago one of my predecessors, the Mar

for the personal honor you have shown me,

more to the traditional friendship of our two
nations.

middle ages, leaving Florence, came TO pur-

And may we not hope that my presence at
this distinguished gathering suggests that
there continues to exist the same untram-
meled spirit which makes the world OF art
and letters something more than the heri-
tage OF any one country.

PEN SLIPS IN BECkER'S FAVOR
Mistake in Name May Save the Accused
Sausage Maker.
STATE COMPELLED TO NoLlE The CASE
Error Was in the Name of the rnrty
Alleged to Have Been Murdered
Accused Rcnrrested and
Held for Trial.

CHICAGO. June 29.--The trial OF August
Becker. the South Side butcher, charged
with having murdered and then dsmem-
bered and boiled the remains OF his wife, in
order to leave him free to marry Ida Sut-
terlin, a 17-year-old girl with whom he
had become infatuated. came to sudden
end today, when It was found that the In
dctment named Mrs. Becker as Elizabeth,
when It should have been Therese. The
court at once nolle pressed the Indictment.
The jury had been sworn in and the defense
asked for discharge OF the prisoner on the
ground that Becker had been placed in
Jeopardy and therefore could not be tried
again. The court denied the request how
ever, and a bench warrant was issued and
Becker rearrested. A new indictment will
be drawn up. The discovery that the in
dictment was faulty created somewhat OF
a sensation in the court room.
The result may be, however, that Becker
will escape punishment, as the case is now
in such shape that the prisoners counsel
are confident of reversal by the supreme
court OF verdict OF guilty If returned. The
jury had been sworn in and part of the evi-
dence of the first witness heard when the
attorneys for the defense moved that the
defendant be discharged and the jury in
structed to return verdict OF not guilty,
as the evidence produced related to the kill
Ing of one Therese Becker, while the in
dictment alleged that tNe defendant had
murdered Elizabeth Becker.
After Il moments excited conference be-
tween the prosecuting attorneys the state
moved that nolle prosequi be entered and
the defendant be held on a bench warrant
The defense made the point that If the state
entered nolle prossequ the court must
enter a verdict of not guilty. The state
maintained that Becker had not been in
jeopardy for the murder of Therese Becker
Judge Stein then entered a nole prossequ
and bench warrant was issued for Becker.
Judge Stein sitting as a committing mag
istrate and hearing evidence relating to the
case In this proceeding the defense claims
another error was committed. The wit
nesses were sworn by the clerk of the Grim
nal court. 1t was held by the defense that
Judge Stein, sitting as a magistrate, should
have sworn the witnesses himself
The grand jury this afternoon voted an
other indictment against Becker. The jurors
chosen TO try Becker were kept together and
when the case is again called for trial to-
morrow nearly all of them will be retained
