James White, former members Of
Lieutenant Governor Becker's strong
arm" squad. They are charged with
framing a gun carrying case against
the gang leader, big Jack" Zelig.
The arraignment of Becker was pre-
ceded by the coroner's inquest, which
has been adjourned. Daniel Froham
was foreman of the jury which, after
hearing the evidence, returned a YER
dict that Rosenthal had come to his
death by means of bullet wound in
the brain, caused by some person or
persons unknown.
They recommended that Louis Lib
by, part owner of the murder car"
be discharged from custody. This will
be done.
Among the inquest witnesses was
Policeman and William J. Files, who
was criticised for his failure to cap
ture the assassins. He testified that
he was dining in the Metropole at the
time, and when he heard the shots,
he pulled his gun and ran out on the
sidewalk. He asked several persons
which way the murderes went, but
none could answer him. He and other
officers then jumped into a taxicab and
gave pursuit to an automobile going
east. This automobile he learned later,
was not the gray car in which the
assassins escaped.
SEVEN INVOLVED IN GRAFT.
Four police inspectors and three CT
villains were involved in corruption
that netted them hundreds of thou
sands of dollars from gambling houses
and resorts of i'll fame. according to
information which District Attorney
Whitman will lay before Justice Cor
when the John Doe" inquiry is be-
gun as a corrolary from the Rosen-
gun as a corrolary from the Rosen-
thai conspiracy investigation.
The inquiry will be of such scope
that persons who decline to testify will
be sent to Jail. 1t is expected to de-
velop a line of information that could
not be gained during the trials of men
accused as Rosenthars slayers.

ROOSEVELT SAYS "ABSURD."
Asked today whether he was willing
to go before the senate investigating
committee to testify concerning Sena-

Standard Oil Company made contribu-
tons to the Republican national COM

SHIPS TO CONE
SOUTH EARLY
IN DECEMBER
BIG FLEET WILL PAY VISIT TO
GULF PORTS SOME TIME DUR.
MIG THAT MONTH, ACCORDING
TO REPORT.

-Four battleships, probably of the
smaller class. are to visit New Or
leans early in December, and this is
taken to mean that the entire ATTAIN
tic fleet of twenty vessels will come
to gulf waters at that time. A special
to the Times-Democrat from Wash
ington says:
AS nearly definite and positive ar
rangements as are now possible were
made today for a visit of at least a
division of battleslips to New Orleans
early in December. Secretary Meyer
and Cen. Estopinal had a farewell talk
about the matter today, because the
latter had made arrangements to start
for New Orleans this evening. He is
leaving before the end of the session,
so as to look after his primary cam
paign, which, Of course, must termi-
nate September 8, primary day.
The general and the secretary also
talked about the navy yard and the
matter Of ships for Carnival time, but
no conclusions were reached on those
points, the great difficulty about ships
for Carnival time being the fact that
ct that season the ships are engaged
in the maneuvers.
The secretary was not as liberal
as Admiral Andrews. who thought
there should be at least a squadron,
that is. eight battleships, sent to New
Orleans.
Mr.. Meyers idea is that four bat
tleships in the harbor a. one time will
be a good showing and help popularize
the naval service as much as eight
ships. He believes there would be too
great risk in sending eight of the
larger vessels up the stream at the
same time, hence his practical deter
rrination TO send only half the num-
her.
