tendance they do not come up to the
King street division. This is prob
ably because of the strong organ1Za-

DRY DOCKS ARE
BEING RUSHED
Vessels Wait in Sound for
Their Turn.

Dry docks at both the Raritan and
Perth Amboy yards are taxed to ca
pacity and barges and schooners are
anchored in the sound awaiting
berths to undergo a general over
hauling before the winter and fall
season. At the Perth Amboy docks
the steamer Keansburg is being re-
paired and several barges of the
Bush Terminal Company are being
altered. A covered lighter for a
New York concern is also we'll I'M
der way at these docks. Schooners
Josephine and R. w. Stevens, both
four-masters, are nearly ready to
leave the docks after a general ov-
erhauling. The three-masted schoon-
er Garretson and the two-masted,
Fred Snow, are also receiving a coat
of paint and generally overhauled.
Several barges are also being re-
paired. This season, according to
the owners o. the dry docks, is with
out doubt the busiest for many
years.
Similar conditions prevail at the
Raritan Dry Docks. Men are at
work converting the schooner Wat
son Thompson into a steamer, and
several barges are under construe-
ton. Following are some of the
largest boats on the docks at the

ON THE RACK.
Becker's Lawyer Hastily Sum-
moned Before Grand Jury.
Special bu United Press Wire.

Special By United Press Wire.
New York, Aug. 1:-That the
grand jury will be told the complete
story of the actual murder of Her.
nan Rosenthal by one who actively
participated in it, was admitted at
the district attorneys Office this af-
ternoon. The latest to collapse is
"Dago Frank Cirocisi. He broke
down completely in his cell after
having been positively identified by
three witnesses to the murder and
he sent word to the district attorney
that he will be willing to tell all he
knows if he will be saved from the
electric chair.
He claims the actual shooting was
done by either Lefty" Lewis or
Whiting" Lewis. 1t was reported
that if he told all of his story that
ne would be permitted to plead to
murder in the second degree and so
escape the electric chair. His testi-
mony would aid the district attorney
in completing his case against the
others accused.
That important developments in
the case were expected were known
when John Hart, attorney for Beck
i III Sohoulldlloh III IL
lieutenant in the Tombs, was served
with a subpoena calling him before
the grand jury Immediately. The
reason for the case was not known.
A sensation developed Immediately
after Attorney Hart went before the
grand jury. Ten minutes after the
door closed behind him, he and Whit
man came out flushed and plainly
very angry. They went before Null
queen, where Whitman stated that
Hart had refused to answer a ques-
ton put to him. Hart broke in and
declared that Whitman had assailed
his private character.
81 am informed that while Jack
Rose was hiding a fugitive from JUS
tice, Becker sent his attorney to see
him and get an affidavit from him.
I have asked Hart if this was not SO
and he had refused to answer said
Whitman. 81 think that for a mem
Der of the bar to visit a fugitive from
justice in his home in an outrage
and good grounds for disbarment."
Judge Mulqueen directed Hart to
go back and answer the question.
The lawyer refused, saying the dis
trict attorneys information was
false and that it was an outrage to
assail his character in such a man
ner. Mulqueen, however, ordered
Hart to go back to the grand jury
room and answer and said he would
remain on the bench until the grand
Jury finished with him.
