TRIPLE QUIZ ON IN NEW YORK
Grand Jury Resumes investigation -$5,o0o Reward Is Offered for
 Two Much Wanted Men.

New York, Aug. 23.-Police Lieu tenant Charles Becker and four of his alleged underworld accompiices were arraigned in the court of general ses- sions to plead to an indictment chare- ing them with the murder of the garn- bier. Herman Rosenthal Counsel for Becker said he was not ready to plead and the court set next Tuesday fo- the pleading. The other four prison CTS all pleaded not guilty, with per mission to withdraw or change the plea by Tuesday.
 With the formality of the arraign- ment concluded, the district attorney purposes to direct his entire attention for the next week or so to hunting evidence for use in the graft inquiry.
 District Attorney Whitman has ln- formation that he will lay publicly before Justice Golf that no less than four inspectors and three civilians are involved in police corruption.
 Private Detectives Seek Evidence. All the forces of the district attor- ney's office, with the aid of squad of private detectives, were directed in seeking evidence of police graft. When Justice Golf convenes the ex. traordinary session of the grand jury on Sept. 8, District Attorney Whit man intends to ask that several per sons who, he believes, can supply valuable information of police black mail, be summoned in John Doe warrants to appear In court and tell the truth or go to prison.
 The inquest into Rosenthal's assas. sination was resumed in general ses. sions court. Coroner Feinberg had subpoenaed long list of witnesses, although it was not certain whether all would be called upon to testify.
 The grand jury resumed its inves. tigation with Detective William J. Burns under subpoena. Burns was slated to go before the grand jury to reveal the names of police officials whom he had trapped into accepting corruption money.

At the district attorneys office 1t was said that careful investigation would be made of the charge that Becker worked frame up" to gain ascendency over Big Jack" Seelig a gang leader whose services Beckei supposed he might need. Charges against Policemen White and Stein ert. who are alleged to have arrested Seelig on Becker's orders, will be sifted. These two men are accused by Seelig of planting evidence against him.
