FOLLOWED HER TO EUROPE
Rich Mexican Rejoices at Los
ing DAUGHTERS Lover There.

Caramba, II IL inconceivablc that n
story dealing with members OF the Span
igh race should start with any other word
and this is no exception to the rule Ca
rambal and likewise Az de mil The first
expression Indicates the mood OF Rafael
Ljmon, wealthy Mexican planter, while
the second gives slight hint OF the pain
uhich tears the breast OF his daughter,
the pretty. dark-eyed Rosaura. They
were both uttered many times as the
Spanish steamer Montserrat came in from
Barcelona yesterday
The thought which stirred the naughty
Don TO anger was that OF the young and
gallant son Of Mexican merchant, Jaime
Carroya by name, who seemed to leap out
NJ the ground in every city Of the known
world which he visited. a year ago Don
Rafael left Mexico with his daughter to
take her away from the attentions of this
Jaime. who suited him not at all az a
son-in-law He went To Havana, and
within three days there before him stood
the youngster. bowling and smiling In his
most romantic style.
Don Rafael decided that the only thing
TO be done was to put the ocean between
them. Whsking his daughter aboard
sh,p. he set sail for Barcelona. Within
the week Senior Carrova appeared again
II WAS too much. The father started a
rauid race through the European cities
neeing even to Alexandria and Pales-
tine. but in each place Don Jaime bobbed
ND ike the proverbial phoenix.
Senior Limon breathed sigh OF relief
when he did not see the young fellow on
the pier yesterday, and his daughter
breathed a sigh Of sorrow. But the old
man isn't going 70 take any chances. He
leaves New York for Mexico to-day.

AVIATION PUPIL DIES
Struck by Aeroplane Which
Had Volplaned at Mineola,

George Monnord, OF New York, a pupil
OF the Moisant aviation school, was 50
badly injured at the aviation field at
MIneola, Long Island. yesterday after
noon when he got I'm the path OF an aero
plane which had Just volplaned. that he
died last night In the Nassau Hospital.
Monnord. who had been a pupil at the
aviation school for only a short time, was
watching flight by Eustare Salinas. a
lieutenant of the Mexican army. Salinas
had made his landing close to the
hangers, and 1t looked as II he would
crash into them. Monnord and several
other pupils ran out to check the speed OF
the fast moving aeroplane but when 1t
approached they saw that it would be
dangerous to do 80. and all dropped to
the ground TO allow the wings to pass
over them. Mcnnord was hit by part of
the running gear and the machine passed
directly over his body. He was uncon-
sclous when picked up.
The Mexican succeeded in turning his
aeroplane and avoiding a collision with
the hangers

WHITMAN SAYS SEEK DELAY
Becker Counsel Ask Commits.
sion-May Try Habeas Corpus.

District Attorney Whitman was served
yesterday with an order TO show cause
why a commission should not be appoint
ed to go to Hot Springs. Ark, to take
testimony there of three witnesses alleged
to have stated that Schepps told them he
would exculpate Becker.
The order, obtained by John +. McIn-
tyre. chief Of Beckers counsel. will be
argued this morning before Justice
Bischoff. In Special Term of the Supreme
Court. The District Attorney will oppose
the order. but IL It should be granted he
will assign one Of his assistants to ac-
company the commission and cross-ex-
anime the witnesses.
A stay Of proceedings in the Becker
trial, applied for as part of the move TO
have the commission appointed, will gain
the particular opposition Of the District
Attorney. Delay by means Of such stay
of proceedings, Mr.. Whitman believes, is
the real reason for the application. and
he is determined TO fight any delay in the
Becker trial
The proposed move of the Becker de-
fence, to make application for a change
OF venue, was apparently abandoned yes
terday, after it became known that Mr..
Whitman would apply to Governor Dix
for an extraordinary term of the Supreme
Court In whatever county they had the
case transferred to. Such a transfer, fol-
lowed by a special designation by the
Governor OF Justice Golf, would tend to
expedite rather than retard the case, 1t
Is believed. because the job of selecting
a jury would almost surely take less time
upstate than in New York County.
One other possible method Of delay was
mentioned yesterday, and the District
Attorney would not be surprised to see
Beckers lawyers adopt 1t. That would
be TO sue out writ of habeas CORPUS
for Becker, on the ground that his in
dictment was illegal because Of the grand
Jury testimony forced from John w.
Hart, Beckers personal counsel
Such q move would be almost sure to
delay the trial, taking into account the
appeal TO the higher courts, for two or
three months, even though II was unsuc-
cessful all the way.
The District Attorney served subpnnas
yesterday on all the police inspectors who
command Manhattan inspection districts
and on George S. Dougherty, Second
Deputy Commissioner. Inspector Edward
c. Hughes, who commands the Detective
Bureau at Police Headquarters. was
served with a similar subpoena on Mon
day. These subpenss call for the appear
ance Of the police inspectors as witnesses
at the trial OF Lieutenant Becker for the
murder Of Herman Rosenthal.

Get Evidence, Lawyer Says.

Bond & Babson, counsel for the state
Realty Company. obtained a warrant Of
dispossess yesterday in the 9th District
Municipal Court against Louis Brown, the
tenant in whose name Bridge" Webers
gambling house. at Sixth avenue and AID
street, was rented. The realty company,
owner of the property, has taken steps
for the immediate service OF the warrant
w a. Babson. of the law firm, who
conducted the case for his client, said
that for the first time In his experience
the police had actually prepared evidence
against the tenant In such a case for pro-
duotlon in court. 1t had frequently hap
pened. he said, that clients of his had re-
ceived from the police captain In their dis
trict notice to dtspossess a tenant under
penalty of criminal procedure II they
neglected to do so. In such cases the
police were called upon to produce in
court the evidence they had obtained
against the tenant, but had never done
so In a single case of the kind he had
handled until the present one.

Hotel Man on Stand.

After the sergeants who had worked
under Hayes also testified in favor OF
their former inspector David Il. Walton
manager OF the ST. Francis Hotel, in
West 47th street. Identified a letter he
sent 10 the Police Department last May
complaining Of a disorderly house that
was running wide open across the street
from him.
II was this letter that CAPTAIN Hayes
said Deputy Mckay asked him to act on,
and when he refused. saying he had his
own orders on disorderly houses from the
Commissioner, the two Of them went TO
10 see Waldo. Mr. waldo, according 10
the testimony, told Captain Hayes not 10
interfere with the house, and Instructed
him to inform Mr. Walton that he
wanted the house closed to 80 TO court
and prove II was disOrderly.
Mr.. Walton said this message had been
delivered TO him by the depcsed inspector
Lieutenant Costigan, though called by
the prosecution in rebuttal' proved TO be
one NJ the most valuable witnesses for the
defence.
'TTnless you received complaints from
tbe Police Commissioner you would not
consider Il your duty to make arrests In
dlsorderly houses?' was one question MT
Thacher asked.
costigan replied that that was true
"Dia you have rowing commission in
order 70 check up inspectors on disorderly
housesT -
IT did not" answered Costigan. j
made no raids except where l got instruc-
tions from the Police Commissioners"
After tho four inspectors who werc
nresent when Hayes dofed Waldo had
been called and asked If they had received
,rs,ructions not TO raid disorderly houses
and replied In the negative Mr. Thachcr
had them point out the inaccuracies and
,rconpeteness Of the stenographic re-
mort Of that momentous conversation
Then inspectors from the wilds OF
rrooklyn. The Bronx, Queens and Staten
leland were called and asked the same
question by the prosecution.
Mfr Thacher vainly objected TO this line
~ testimony, saying that It did not mat
ter what instructions they had received.
az q did not contradict the testimony OF
HAYES whose command differed from
tbo,rs in that II contained the Tenderloin
of the Western metropolis.
When Inspector John d. Herlihy' OF
Staten Island, had testified he never had
received any special instructions about
d,eorderIv houses from Commissioner
waldo. Mr.. Thacher, with mock anger
shouted:
inspector are there many dens OF vice
I'm Staten IslandT"
Ana the police commander Of that rural
community. smiling. told him there was
none and never had been.
Then both sides rested.

Jury Probed Graft Charges.

The special grand jury which was called
by District Judge Shattuck to investigate
wholesale charges Of graft and corruption
preferred against some Of the most prom
inent local business men and politicians
has been in session since August %. Con-
ditlons In the restricted district have been
the subject OF special inquiry. According
TO the indictment filed against Creel, the
new commissioner was remiss In failing
10 close Immediately the illegal houses,
some Of which have been in existence for
almost twenty years. Formal demand, ac-
cording To the testimony before the jury
for such action. had been made on Creel,
but had been refused. determination.
based on conditions in the red light
district. that the Individual women should
not be made to suffer for conditions which
had been permitted to exist for over a
decade, was the reason which Creel as
signed for his action.
In an interview tonight. Creel said:
The grand jury was directed primarily
toward dlverting public attention from
the Public Service Corporation. which
mulcted the people of Denver for years:
Its organization was entirely O political
move on the part OF the political ma
chnists, whom the administration with
which | associated displaced.
For years these machinists used the
women OF the Tenderloin for their po-
ltical ends but now that they are thrust
from office. they seek TO make political
capital from the fact that ] decline 10
prosecute them. Since ! took up the
duties Of police commissioner, n constant
policy OF repression has been pursued.
The sale OF liquor in disorderly houses
after u o'clock at night and on sun
days has been forbidden, and the order
has been enforced. In the future. ! In
tend TO draw the lines more tightly, with
the ultimate abolition OF the segregated
district in view. But ! refuse now. ana
| shall refuse, n they indict me, from
now to doomsday. TO wipe out the dis
trict at single stroke.
Not only would such a course fail TO
abolish prostitution. but apart from max
ing conditions worse than they are at
present, il would work totally unneces-
sary hardship upon women whose wicked
ness Is not 80 largely innate az It is the
result OF social and economic conditions.
The grand jury has returned indict-
mcnts against more than one hundred
persons. besides the corporations named
I'm tho indictments returned this morning.
The names OF persons indicted have
been withheld by Judge Shattuck IN all
cases. except where the persons named
are of such standing in the community
that they are not likely to attempt To es-
cape the serving of the capiases. The
bonds I'm each case were fixed at $1,000.
Many OF the indictments are against per
sons of high business and social standing,
who own property In the restricted dis
trict. The capiases will be issued to-
morrow afternoon and placed In the hands
of Sheriff Sullivan for service. He Will
send deputies out at once to bring In the
persons against whom the capiases are
issued. when they will either have 10 fur
nish bonds or be locked up In the county

as OH the two previous days he sat in
'ne witness chair, was recalled to the
slaI'u oy Terence Farley, the Assistant
corporation Counsel in charge of the
prosecution, when the trial was resumed
Yesterday morning.
iol nan an hour the examination Of
the defendant proceeded without incl
aeht' Then Mr.. Farley asked Hayes why
u was When Commissioner Waldo asked
MIN In the presence of other inspectors
II he had given him orders not to raid
olsorderly houses he inquired If Mr..
waldo. wanted him to reply in the hear
ing of the others
hayes half rose from his chair as he
shot back the answer.
Because l didn't want 10 state to the
commissioner IN the presence of the
other inspectors. that he had instructed
me to make false report
Farley Shifts Questioning.
Mr.. Farley, flushing at the thought OF
having given Hayes this opening turned
his fire in another direction at once. The
new line of questions had to do with
what he understood Commissioner Waldo
had instructed him to do in respect TO
disorderly houses. After several ques-
tons Mr.. Farley. adopting his suavest
tones, asked:
You are willing TO concede that Com
missioner Waldo did not tell you not to
obtain evidence against dsorderly
houses2"
Certainly not" retorted Hayes, g,ar-
Ing at his interrogation.
Then Mr. Farley returned to the con-
versation between Hayes and Waldo on
August 16. when he was reduced and
suspended. Only once did Hayes agree
with the stenographic report OF that con-
versation. At all other times he would
eXclaim: IL did not say that" or That
is not just right" or That record is
wrong"
one important omission was brought
out when Mr.. Thacher asked his client:
Was anything said that does not APP
pear in that report?"
Eyes" answered Captain Hayes. II re-
ferred TO Inspector Daily, who had been a
captain in that precinct for years (the
West 47th street.. TO show that no real
reform could he accomplished by arrest
ing keepers of disorderly houses. There
were many of them IN the business who
had been there for years"
Captain Day of the West 18th street
station was then called ty the defence.
He was asked by Mr.. Thacher IL he had
q conversation with Commissioner Waldo
after the Robespierre raid. lie said he
had, a few days later.
What occurred at that interview"
asked Mr.. Thacher.
Mr.. Farley objected on the ground that
il was immaterial.
do you mean 10 say that this witness
is not permitted TO give evidence that
Commissioner Waldo?" shout
ed Mr. Thacher. II want 10 show by this
that the Commissioner state
ment that he took no action after he had
the raids is false
Waldo's deputy permitted the question
and Captain Day declared the Commits
sioner questioned him in detail about the
raids, saying he had heard that graft
was behind them. Day said he told the
Commissioner that that was not true, but
that the complaints of priests had caused
them. The Commissioner asked Day 10
bring the letters OF the priests 10 his
office, which he did.

DR.. King, shortly before the examina-
ton was completed. This was due not
so much to the embalming, think. as
to the nature OF the soil in which 1t

suspicious circumstances in the or

Although at that time he refused to

could go UP with him. with the heIp
of the elevator starter and the man In
the car he managed to get into an ele-
yator alone with Rinck, and the TWO
ascended TO his office. II was over an
hour before either OF them appeared
again.
First came Rinck alone. TO find Sher-
III De Graw waiting excitedly In the
hallway for him. They at once went
into secret conference, as result OF
which Rincks vigilance was vislbly IN
creased. In q few moments Gibson APP
neared. He seemed daZed at sight or
the crowd Of photographers reporters
and curious persons that confronted
him. He made a rush for one OF the
exits Of the building, then changed MS
mind. making a circle toward another,
by which he gained the street Rinck
had rushed out by the other door and
nicked I'D Gibson in Cortlandt street,
sticking close to him as he went to the
Hudson tubes.
Here, accompanied by his escort of
reporters and photographers, he took
tho train to the Erie station, where he
bought all the evening papers. He
buried himself in them on the train
refusing TO talk to any one. At Ruther-
ford he hired carriage and rode TO
his home, at No. 292 Carmlta avenue.
Here he consented to pose before

his way after Gibson as he retreated
