BECKER DEFENSE
TAKES SURPRISE
BY The United Press.

BY The United Press.
NEW YORK. Oct. 11-That the
Becker defense has a surprise up its
sleeve and that il expects to riddle
completely the case-of the prosecution
when its inning comes, was the inti-
nation of Chief Counsel John +. Nc
Intyre. when the trial was resumed
today. He declared that he would
absolutely nullify the evidence OF
Louis Krese the waiter who positively
identified Whitley Lewis, Lefty Louie
and Gyp the Blood as the men who
actually fired the shots that killed
Rosenthal and Jack Sullivan as the
man who bent over.felt of ROsenthal's
pulse to find out whether he was dead.
Mcintyre says he has witnesses who
will prove positively that Krese was
not on the scene when Rosenthal was
slain
That the defense plans to shift the
actual murder on Henry Vallon is
generally believed, although Mcintyre
refuses to disclose his ways until the
case of the State is complete His
questioning of witnesses, however. has
shown that he plans to make Vallon
Rose. Webber and Schepps far more
responsible for the killing than. they
have told the district attorney they
were.
Thomas Ryan, the chauffeur. who
drove the taxicab used by Officer File
in pursuing the murder car, was the
first witness called to-day. He said
one man did the shootin but when
asked by Assistant District Attorney
Moss whether he had seen the indi-
vidual since, he said no.
sDidnt you tell me that Whitley
Lewis did the shooting?' demanded
I Moss.
Objection to the question by the de-
fence was sustained.
Moss protested. saying Ryan made
the statement to him in the presence
of File. but the court refused to per
NIT the question
The four alleged gunner were
brought into court, but Ryan posi-
lively refused TO identify them anC
Moss failed TO get him to admit tha
he had been threatened with death j
he told what be knew.
