TO CALL BECCKKER'S TRIAL
NEW YORK JUSTICE TO EMPAN
Ell SPECIAL GRAFT JURY.
Murder of ZeIig Blow to Defense
States Case Unaffected,
Whitman Says.

New York, Oct. S.-Two hundred
and fifty talesmen TANNED the court
room of Justice Golf in the criminal
branch of the supreme court when Po-
lice Lieutenant Charles Becker was
called to answer the charge of murder
in the first degree in instigating the
murder of Herman Rosenthal, the
gambler who was shot to death last
July.
In addition to these talesmen there
was another panel of 80 from which
Justice Golf was to select special
grand jury to devote its time to all
phases Of the Rosenthal investigation.
Strict Precautions Taken.
Extraordinary precautions had been
taken by the authorities. The space
within the rail had been apportioned
to the press associations, newspaper
reporters and attorneys, and only
those bearing credentials were admit
ted. Every person admitted to the
small section of the room given over
to the spectators was scrutinized care
fully.
Justice Golf will hold night sessions
in his court in order to expedite the
; trial
District Attorney Whitman ap-
peared with Frank Moss, his chief as
sistant. The defense was in charge
of John F. Mcintyre, one of the lead
ers of the criminal branch of the bar.
Whitman admitted that the murder
of big Jack" Zelig Saturday night re-
moved one of his most important wit
nesses, but he insisted that his death
would not materially weaken the case
against Police Lieutenant Becker.
Zelig's Death Hurts Defense.
A special panel of $50 talesmen
from the struck jury" list was on
hand when the Becker trial was
called
Just before the Becker case was
called, Attorney Mcintyre stated that
he would ask for a postponement, be-
cause John w. Hart, who Is attorney
of record in the case, has been strick-
en- suddenly with bronchitis.
Mcintyre declared that the death OF
Zelig was a blow to the defense He
said that Zelig would have contradict
ed "Bald Jack" Roses statement that
he applied to Zelig for gunner to kill
Rosenthal at Becker's request.
