Whitman Is Scored

The defense centered It's attack on he states case almost wholly on Rose g testimony. which MT. Mcintyre de- nouneed an unworthy of belief, because Jack Rose testified to save himself from the electric chairp He charac- terized the corroborating witnesses as "crooks and murderers:" the states case he summed up with a declaration that District Attorney Whitman, 'ac- tuated by ambition" had fathered n prosecution framed up by crooks.
 MT. Moss warmly resented the inn pIlcation that MT. Whitman had any other motive than duty for seeking the conviction of Becker, and denounced the villifcation of counsel for the defense" as revealing the desperate straits to which he has come Mr. Moss accused MT. Mcintyre of misrep- resenting the evidence to the jury, i'm relling Becker's attorney to jump to lis feet and shake his fist in the face of his opponent as he uttered an in- dignant denial.
 The lawyers spent four hours each ill summing up the evidence.
 'If Becker did not have motive for the murder why did be want to get an affidavit from Rose two days after Ros- enthal was dead?' Mir. Moss asked 'The truth is Becker did not know how things would go. He saw the possi- bility that Rose might be d witness against him, and he got an affidavit from Rose to silence him. He got Rose to swear his own life away. so that he

 sam schepps, Mir Moss conceded, was an accessory. but had come forward to testify because Becker had thrown his pal Rose to the dogs"
 why" asked the prosecutor. If Becker had no interest in the murder, did he visit the police station where Kosenthal's body was lying? Becker vas off duty. What reason did he have to go thereg
 Moss Says No Proof" Mir. Moss declared that the defense 1 had dwelt throughout the trial upon an alleged conspiracy to murder Ros- lenthal rounded upon the hatred Of the underworld, but had not introduced q shred of proof that any such conspir- acv had existed. Mr. Mcintyre had | examined JdCh itD1ts 4Sh i' -7tN " 1hf'ef and Harry Vallon as to conversations with various persons concerning this alleged plot. but had failed to produce these persons as witnesses. MT. Moss declared.
 1 Answering MT. McIntyre's declaration that the four gunmen, yet to be tried might go free, even if Becker were convicted, MT. Moss said: Have no fear that you will ever meet these four men on Broadway. We have not dis closed our entire case against them yet, and you needn't be afraid of meet 1 ing Rose Webber and Vallon there either. after this trial Is over. Their friends the gunmen of the under world will take care of that"
 For the character of his witnesses MT. Moss offered no apology. He de- clared. however. that if the district at- torney had not accepted the testimony Iof the four informers, Rose. Webber, Vallon and Schepps. all 10 men con nected with the case would now be Ut large.

Turkish Gunners Are Poor Marks men-Pris0ners Say the Turkish Troops Are III Fed and
 Poorly Disciplined

London, October 23.-The news from the seat of war tonight tells of the continued success of the allies. The servians have captured Novipazar and are the virtual masters of Kumanova. The victories. however, have been pur- chased al heavy sacrifices
 The situation in Thrace Is becoming clearer A great battle Is being fought over wide semi circular front before Adrianople upon which town the Bull Rarians gradually are closing In On the east they have occupied Vasilika and Tirnovo and are continuing their advance southward.
 On the west the Bulgarians accord ing to official Sofia accounts have reached the Arda river close to Adrian ople, which is being vigorously bonn barded Already the two outer forts have fallen. Some positions to the north of Adrianople are also said to have been taken after fighting of the severest character.
 Of the army in the center. operat- ing in the direction of Kirk -Kilisseh tkere was no news today, and evident ly that fortress still is holding out.
 On Verge of Decisive Battle
 It is significant that tonight's Con stantinople dispatches, which say d decisive result is expected tomorrow have a less confident tone than pre- sious dispatches from that capital. They admit that heavy struggle is in prog ress in which both sides are showing the utmost bravery.
 Information concerning the Montene- grin progress Is meagre, but the Turk ish authorities i'm that Scutari has been reinforced and is safe. A Saloni<i dispatch asserts that the Mallisori tribes are offended because the Monte negrin commanders are proelaiming tae sovereignty of King Nicholas fin tbe captured Albanian towns. They de- mand that King Nicholas give a guar antee that he will evacuate Albanian territory and secure autonomy for AL bania. So far they have received no satisfactory reply. and 1t is reported That they are refusing to fight further for the MonteDegrins, whose advance las been thereby checked.
 The next news of the Greek cam paign should be an important battle around the town of Servia, to which place tho Turks have retreated from Elassona, and have been reinforced from the north.

The Democratic Platform


 The democratic platform of 1912 as did the democratic platform of 1892 declares unconstitutional the imposition and col- lectng the tariff duties except for reve- nue. The democratic candidate, Dr. Will son, has declared that he would repeal all protective duties. The present demo- ! cratic House of Representatives had put i itself on record in favor of the lowest possible import rates. So we may as sume that in the event of democratic success, we shall have a tariff for reve- nue only.
 We are today enjoying a larger de-
 gree of prosperity. a greater volume of | employment and higher individual col- l lective wages than ever before in our history. No man can be idle who can or will work. The newspapers in their want colufns are printing ten fold more | help wanted than situations wanted ad- l vertisements. Our farmers have harvest ed the most valuable crop ever known, our railroad facilities are taxed to their utmost to handle 1t. Our merchants were never so busy and our banks are bursting with surplus funds. We are buying more abroad than ever before and we are sell | ing largely more than we buy. ensurng

Utica. N. Y., october 2s-Vice Presi- dent James S. sherman. tonight con- tributed prepared address to the re- publican campaign in which he dwelt upon two issues before the eountry-eonstitu- tional liberty and industrial opportunity
 This statement by Mir. sherman, which is addressed to the American people, is practically his only contribution to the prediction work of his party. the vice presidents health having made it impos- sible for him to take an active part in the campaign. The statement in part, follows
 Tt has been a matter of keen regret that I have not been able to take an active part in the present campaign. The restraint has been the more irksomc as 1 have realized that we are passing through n national crisis such as we have not experienced since the civil war It is hard indeed to be only an onlooker at such time and I am almost im- pelled to disobey the doctors orders and rush into the conflict, but l must not for have private and public obligations for which l must conserve my health Still l cannot refrain from sending out a few sentences for which | ask Inc consideration of all my fellow citizens.

Two Great Issues

There are two great issues in this campaign which stand out alone. One, our constitutional liberty-the other iu- dustral opportunity. I realize fully the spirit of unrest that has been aroused during the last few years by muck rakers and demagogues. l appreciate most thor oughly and join most heartily in the de- sire for so-caled social betterment. I am in full sympathy with every well directed effort to elevate still further our already high standard of living, to eradicate in- justice and iniquitious conditions in our social and industrial life, but [ ask in all seriousness if any evils that have erept into our national afafirs can be eliminated by breaking down our consti. 'ittios4 ]. attacsiuG the e3arts or iu- creasng the power of thu niab, Happily I believe this threatening danger which seemed to menace our institutions has been ayerted
 But a great menace remains. We can not improve the present social and civic situation by tearing down existing indus trial conditions and abandoning opportun- ity for individual and national progress.
