Thousands were present in the city of New
York last Thursday to hear Charles Becker,
erstwhile police lieutenant
Will Becker of that city, plead to the
Tell 1t All? charge of having murdered
Herman Rosenthall the no
torious gambler, but Becker refused to
plead and was given until next Thursday
to do so, which. it is said, means that Beck
er is preparing to make a clean breast Of
the whole affair and tell all about it, The
other three suspects, all notorious gamblers
and thugs, plead not guilty, and will make
bluff at fighting their cases. A good many
ugly situations in official life have been
brought to light in these days of political
reform, but the police situation in New
York is about the worst that has ever been
unearthed It is thought that the same
methods are being practiced in every large
city in the United States The light in
which the police of the United States is held
in Europe may be judged from the follow

Though Clarence S. Darrow may have been
as guilty as a dog of all he was accused
as to the famous McNa-
Darrow Case mara trial. yet the evi-
Legal Blunder dence did not show it,
and the prosecuting at
torney pushed the case either for the sake
of cheap notorety or because the fine ltal-
ian hand of Capital was pushing him on
The case should have been dropped the Sec
ond week after it was opened and thereby
saved the state of California thousands OF
dollars, because it was evident at that time
that there could not be sufficient evidence
brought out to convict the accused. 1t is
to be regretted that prosecuting attorneys
will push cases of this nature when they
know they can not get the evidence, but
they see an opportunity to play to the gal
leries and they do it bang up. There IS
no doubt but that great many criminals
escape punishment for the lack OF sufficient
evidence, but that can not be helped and
prosecuting attorneys should refuse to
plunge their respective states into multi
piled thousand of dollars of cost in order to
attain bit of cheap nOtoriety.

History fails to record any person, who did
as much for fallen humanity as did General
William Booth during his
General Booths life time, and his recent
Passing. passing but wound up his
personal career on earth
and made it possible for him to use his pass
port to that home not made by hands, eter-
nal in the heavens Though his remains
now be but lifeless lump Of clay, not only
his soul, but his good examples and his
work will live on and go on almost the same
as if he were directing them. That the
world is million times better that Gen.
Booth lived no one will deny and the hu-
man being was not living, who did not drop
a tear Of regret, on hearing of his death.
He was without religious creed or doctrine,
but was full and overfowing with the love
of God and right and justice toward his
fellow man, and that was worth more than
all of the creeds and isms ascribed to
Christianity The civilized world will pay
homage to his memory one day next week
and more beftting tribute could not be
paid to the memory Of life so nobly spent.

Howard may be one of the best lawyers in

HARTFORD THREATENED
 WITH A WATER FAMINE
Chief Engineer Ordered to Shut Down
 Supply at Night.

On November 1 there were 711.5o0, 900 gallons of water in the city reservoirs, as compared with more than billion gallons year ago. The decrease in the supply during the last month was more than 241, ,O00, 900 gallons.
 The board tonight ordered the chief engineer to shut down the supply of water in the city at night, which in effect will reduce the fire protection at night to a minimum. In order to guard against fires, however, watch men will be stationed at all tho city reservoirs, so that in ease of fire the water will be turned on,

VOGEL A TYPE OF
 DICKENS "FAGIN."
Dead Crook Was Master of Over
 Forty Girl Thieves.

New York, Nov. 1s.-Henry Vogel, weeping thief and "Fagin,' master of more than forty girl thieves who stole for him, died fighting when trapped in Bronx hotel last night. Evidence developed today that he did not turn his elevenshot automatic pistol on himself after he had shot one man to death and wounded four others in the pitched battle, but with the woman who was kDown as his wife was killed by bullets from detectives revolVers,
 This new light on the sensational af- fray was revealed by the autopsy. Vogers pistol fired only steel jacketed bullets, one lead bullet from a police revolver pierced the heart of the thief, another bored through him directly under the heart. and a third shattered his right wrist. The woman, at first thought to have been killed by Vogel, was killed by missiles from the detec- tives' guns-one through the heart and another through the neck,
 Vogers identity was easily estab- lished, but who his woman companion was remains unknown. What, it is hoped, will prove a clue to various un- explained features of the case was a cipher code in capital letters written on sheet of paper found in a hand bag carried by the Vogel woman. Ex- perts have been given this code te de- cipher.
 Vogei, who had long criminal rec ord and many aliases, had thoroughly systematized his operations as a 'Fa- gin" the detectives Investigating the case say. His servant girl tools, said to number forty or more, were moved as chess pieces in game, their mas- ter causing them to bring their loot tc one of several homes" he maintained and then answer advertisements and obtain new positions where they could gain more plunder.
