Lieut.. Charles Becker, head of the
"Strong arm squad who, tonight,
began his second day of incarceration
in the Thombs prison. as an alleged
instigator of the murder of Herman

This annual graft of 81. 400, 900 pro-

STORY OF THE SHOOTING.

New York, July 30.-The details OF
how Rosenthal was shot down were
related officially. today. for the first
time by two of his companions, who
were eye witnesses of the murder, in
the trial of Patrolman William j. File.
before Deputy Commissioner Dillon.
The patrolman has been under sus-
pension since the shooting, charged
with failure to take prompt and eff
cient measures to effect the arrest
of the murderer File, who was off
duty. was in the Hotel Metropole at
the time of the shooting and led in
the pursuit of the gray automobile in
which the slayers escaped.
The version of the shooting given
by John j. Hickey and Christian
Walker, who were with Rosenthal
when he was shot. differed in several
respects from the story told at the
time. Both men denied that the gam
bier was lured to his death from the
Metropole by a messenger who called
him from a table. Another point
brought out. from File himself, was
that "Bridgie" Weber, one of the
men whose confession led to Lieut..
Beeker's arrest, entered the hotel res
taurant, but a few moments before
Rosenthal was shot. and looked nerv
ously about the place. Rosenthal, It
was testified, was at that moment sit

The Senate, tonight, was in guam
dairy as to the program it would adopt
in further consideration of the three
bills. The regular Republicans We're
reported to be favorable to a plan
whereby they would absent themselves
from the chamber, thus giving the
Democrats a chance to pass the meas
ares and send them along for the
Presidential veto. The Republican
Insurgents" however, opposed this
plan and insisted that the differences,
where they are reconeiliabie, be
threshed out in conference.
Senate Democrats, enjoying the Re-
publican disagreement. will seek to
take advantage of it. Some concerted
plan of action will probably be adopt

ficials are expected by the district

The arrest of Becker lays bare
scandal in the police department that
threatens to shake 1t to it's founda
items, for Whitman believes the story
of police graft has only half been told.
Bald jack Rose confessed that
Becker came to him and, fairly des-
perate over Rosenthafs intention of
telling all he knew of his relations
with the police lieutenant, said "Ros-
enthal has lived too long. He has got
to be put out of the way"
Rose told the public prosecutor and
the grand jury how the murder band
was hired at the instigation of Beck
er and that after the killing Becker
met Weber and himself and promised
complete police protection.
