murder Of Herman Rosenthai. will tell
on the witness stand how he saved

s., 500 a year. He will explain how he

cent on itself year. and lived comfort

to build himself 5000 house on a 5000
lot. The s125.00o involved is the amount
District Attorney Whitman has found de-
posted In various banks around and In
New York TO the joint credit of Becker
and Helen l. Becker. his wife. The
8, go principal. with which this able finan-

friends of Becker, will corroborate Beck
er's wonderful story OF high finance on
the witness stand. He declares Becker
won the fortune at the rate OF S3i7 a day
for 1865 consecutive days on the stock
market. The District Attorney and the
Burns detectives are so rude as to say
that Lieut.. Becker did no such thing
and they add that the court never will

Wrong Man Arrested.
Burns detectives. who went to Milford
Pa, to identify and bring back Harry
Horowitz, alias "Gyp the Blood" sup
posed to be in Jail there. discovered that
the man under arrest was really Charles
Ubriaco. a New York bartender. The
suspect was released. after he had "jol-
lied the jailer all the night into the
belief that he really was the much want
ed slayer.
Investigators from the District Attor-
ney's office to-day unearthed the link
which bound Police Lieut.. Becker to the
system. II was a monthly contribution
Of 5000 which Becker paid to the men
higher UP for the privilege of taking
more than $4,000 in monthly graft from
the gambling resorts and disorderly
houses of the underworld Of New York
1t Is claimed that this sum was paid
by Becker directly into the hands OF a
civilian employee of the police depart
ment-a man who holds a responsible po-
sition under Police Commissioner Waldo
The bank accounts of this civilian official
have been located and the bank officers
have been ordered to produce these ac-
counts before , o'clock tomorrow after
noon. The bankers refused TO do this,
and were informed that they would be
prosecuted unless they obeyed the re-
quest.
Persistent reports are in circulation in
police circles here that William ]. Flynn.
of the United States Secret Service, will
succeed Rhinelander Waldo as police
commissioner of New York In a few

WIFE MAKES GOOD
SUMMONS SERVER
Mrs. A. I. Davis Waits at Hotel and
Puts Paper in Husbands
Hand.

New York, Aug. S.-At the entrance
to the Hotel st. Hubert, in West Forty
seventh Street, a woman stood the other
day hour after hour. scanning closely
the face of every man who went I'm or
out. Finally, an automobile drew I'D
TO the door, and after a few moments a
man stepped out of the hotel, leaning
on the arm of a nurse. He was Adolph
/. Davis. a prosperous business man,
connected with the Guggenheim smelt-
ing interests in Colorado and the East.
Before he could reach the door OF the
machine the woman stepped swiftly
across the pavement and pressed a sum-
mons into his hands. Mr.. Davis glanced
casually at the server OF the paper then
down at the paper. 1t was a summons
in n suit for a separation brought by
Mrs. Alma Davis.
The woman turned on her heel and
walked hurriedly toward Broadway,
while Mr.. Davis thrust the paper into
his pocket and climbed into the ma
chine. He had not recognized his wife
in the woman who had served the sum-
mons, so many years had gone>by since
ne and she had made their home to-
gether.
In 1902, according to Mrs. Davis COM
plant, he left her. after eight years
married life. Since then she and her
little girl, now 16 years old. had been
supported by her mother. with whom
she lived at 257 West 11sth Street, she
said.
Mrs. Davis had heard that her hus-
band had gone to Colorado and grown
prosperous. From different friends she
heard of his connection with the American
Smelling and Refining Company and the
American Zinc, Lead and Smelling
Company. and she heard. too. that he
came East occasionally. It always
seemed 10 her that he kept out of her
way and all her plans to have him
served with a summons in an action for
separation came to nothing. Finally
she decided to serve the paper herself
She heard that he was stopping at
the st. Hubert. She watched the hotel.
and yesterday the summons was filed in
the Supreme Court by her lawyer, Louis
Levy. Of 2oS Broadway. The acknowl-
edgment Of service was also filed by

New York, Aug. g.-Gov. Wilson will

Should the Governor make only

will fall upon Speaker Clark, Demo-

J. Bryan, Cows. Harmon of Ohio and
Foss of Massachusetts,, Senator Ollie
James of Kentucky, and members OF

In case Wilson agrees that his pres

Gov Harmon will confine himself for tine
Foss will talk to his New England
friends.
Gov. Wilson seemed very much upset
to-day over some remarks attributed to
him in the morning newspapers. What
appeared to grieve him most were the
statements that National Chairman Nc
Combs might never return to active
campaign work and that there was such
friction between McCombs and MEM
bers of the campaign committee that
the latter preferred that Vice Chairman
McAdoo should conduct the canvass to
the end.
The Governor issued a statement de-
nying the report that Mr.. McCombs
was so i'll that he might be unable to
undertake any active campaign work.
He said he confidently expected that Mr..
McCombs would be able to take UP his
duties as chairman after a rest of a
friction existed between Mr.. McCombs
and other members of the national COM
mittee.

day quietly at the University Club, ex-

WOMAN CARD
LEADS TO CRIME
Baltimore Minister and Editor Be
means Loss Of 0ld-fashioned
Modesty.
LAYS BLAME ON FRANCE

Baltimore, Md, Aug. Is. - Diaphanous
gowns. the clinging skirt: the hobble. the
peek-a-boo shirt waist and most of the
other numerous sppurtenances of milady's
attire are bitterly excoriated by Rev.
Carlton d. Harris, editor of the Southern
Methodist, in the leading article Of that
publication last week.
After commencing the statements
against the prevailing styles that have
been made by Catholic cardinals and the
medical journals, DR.. Harris condemns
the French for setting the pace for i'm
modest apparel. and says that the morals
of France can be traced by its fashion
plates from the day OF Louis XIV. He
says:
The ultra-decollete dress, the clinging
skirt of a delicate and diaphanous ma
ture, the contracted skirt that has won
for itself the name of hobble. and other
Partisan importations may exhibit grace
and symmetry, but surely not dignity and
modesty.
"A youth before taking his own life, in
a Northern State a few weeks ago. de-
clared in a note that he had gotten his
inspiration for committing a horrible
crime upon an innocent little girl and ac-
complishing her death by the suggestive
ness Of feminine apparel that greeted his
eyes every day.
Ruled by Fashion.
Why do our girls and young women
follow such depraved methods and styles
in dress, which are in vogue to-day, and
which so often give wrong impressions
of good, pure girls and subject innocent
women to insult and attack? 1t Is be-
cause they are losing their moral sense
or lowering the standards of the pro-
prieties of life. No. a Thousand times
no; but they adopt the style of dress
that is so deserving of criticism simply
to be in fashion, and thoughtlessly go
to extremes without considering the
spectacles they make OF themselves.
'Old-fashioned modesty like that of
Longfellow's 'Blushing Evangeline' or
Shakespeares 'CordeIia,' with a voice
ever soft, gentle, and low, an excellent
thing in woman still has a value above
rubies. There is nothing more charming
among womanly virtues In the eyes of
men. But, like the dewdrop upon THE
rose. or the delicate bloom upon the
grape, a touch OF the hand or even a.
breath may cause 1t to disappear forever.
Let us guard the modesty of our women
as among our most priceless possessions.

and good. and that our life as q nation
may be pure and strong"
