NEW YORK TACKLES
WORLDS BIGGEST JOB
Completion of Subway Sys-
tenn Greater Undertaking
Than Panama Canal.

New York, y Y, July 30-COinci-
dent with the report that the citys
new subways are now about Is per
cent completed, New Workers have
Suddenly been made aware of the fact
that this billion dollar system, as it
viii he when finished. is entitled to
he known as the worlds biggest IN
dertaking. Never since the beginning
of history has such a work been at
tempted or such an amount spent in
an equal area. Some idea OF its vast
ness may be realized from the fact
that the building of the pyramids,
looked upon as one of the greatest
labOrs of any tune becomes lnsisnlIl-
cant. The cost of the new additions
alones to the existing system Will be
greater than that of the Panama canal
The need for such mighty system
is indicated by the traffic estimates
for 1925 based on the rate of growth
in the past BY that time 1t is figured
the number of passengers carried will
be more than 3,OOO,OOO,O 600 during the
wear. a total of more than three
times the number of passengers car
ried on all the steam railroads of the
country at present. Necessarily the
financing of this work has proved an
enormous problem, but as matters now
stand the city is to furnish an amount
ating company for construction with
ertain- agreements covering any fur
Their needs for the completion of the
projected lines. The need for such
costly system is indicated by the in
crease in land values in New York in
the last 10 years. During that period
the increase exceeded the combined
output of all the gold and silver mines
in the country by $4,000, 600 and
was greater than the dividends paid

facilities in keeping with such expan-
sion that New York is now undertake

to drunkenness"
Mr.. Underwood paused, then added:

war, was officially confirmed on Thurs
day The Turkish garrison at Kirk

Of Kirk-Kilisseh is not definitely

the losses as several thousands"

tory by daring fianking movement
which brought a strong division Of
Bulgars to the Ottoman rear. The
battle had been in progress practi-
cally three days before the advantage
turned to either side, although the
Bulgarians were known to be devel-

forces that would double their
chances of victory in final assault.

feet that two Turkish generals were

Central park. The Liberals hid be-
hind trees and pillars while the Con-
servatives operated from the Asbert

changed and more than fifty persons
were injured. Several bullets struck
the American club and others crashed
through windows of the editorial

RECTED KILLING OF HERMAN
ROSENTHAL.
FACES CHAIR FOR MURDER
Prisoner Near Collapse When Verdict
Is Returned After Eight Hours
Men Who Decide His Fate Sob as
They Tell Their Decision.

New York. Oct. 26-Police Lieut..
Charles Becker was found guilty of
murder in the first degree by the jury
which has been trying him for insti-
eating the death of Herman Rosen-
thai, the gambler The verdict, which
took the jury eight hours to reach,
was pronounced at 1902 o'clock Fri
day morning.
Mrs. Becker, wife of the convicted
police official, was barred from the
courtroom when the jury returned
with their verdict Seated in the corri-
dor outside, the dread news was
broken to her as gently as possible.
She sat perfectly immovable when the
messenger told her her husbands fate.
Apparently stunned, she neither NOV
ed nor spoke. Then her eyes closed
and she apparently swooned. Friends
carried her away.
The verdict was a severe blow to
both the defendant and his wife and
counsel, all of whom had been conf
IDENTIFY looking for a disagreement at
least
The last juror had scracely gained
his seat when the same door through
which the arbiters of his fate had en-
tered again swung open, and Becker
himself stalked through. His face was
white. His eyes swept about the
courtroom In an affrighted manner
and finally fell upon the jurors. So
intent was he in studying their
countenances that he stumbled just
inside the room and almost fell over
the railing.
The attending deputy sheriff caught
him and supported him within the rail.
Gentlemen of the jury, have you
agreed upon a yerdict?" asked Justice
Goff. I'VE have said Foreman Skin
ner
How say you, gentlemen. of the
jury?"
Guilty in the first Degree almost
whispered the foreman.
Becker's chest sank in with sigh
| mouth twitched and all the muscles
of his face knotted in an anguished
spasm.
These IL men-after eight hours
battling with their conscience having
| pronounced the defendant guilty
turned from judges to sympathizers
and there was scarcely a man of the
IL who did not falter and whose voice
did not catch with sob as he indi-
vidually recorded his belief in the
| guilt of the accused man.

The fact that several Nebraska
young women graduating from the de-
partment of agriculture at Washing
ton into places of responsibility as
seed experts, some In state universi-
ties, while naturally gratifying to
their neighbors, is most significant in
this, that 1t shows what a potent in
f1uence the government is exerting to-
ward implanting the principle of in
tensive agriculture, says the Omaha
Bee. The first steps in the process of
making two blades of grass grow
where but one grew before is the
proper selection of seed and proper
preparation of the soil. The federal
government is doing a great work,
therefore, in thus fostering this move
ment and cooperating In it with state
educational institutions. Together
they are making the selection of seed
for agriculture and horticulture a sci
ence and business. OF course, this
opens up to young men and women lu-
crative fields of service, but that is
only incidental to the main purpose

disgusting way. He gets drunk, too,
and that not infrequently and all his
intimates know about it."
Judge James H. Pound of Detroit has
been retained by Colonel Roosevelt
as his attorney. The monetary dam
ages have been fixed at the nominal
sum of $4,000, because, as the state
ment explains. ut is not question of
recovering money from Mr.. Newett
that is influencing Colonel Roosevelt
in the least in commencing these
actions. They are brought because by
the publication of this libel in his
newspaper, Mr.. Newett has furnished
the first opportunity that Colonel
Roosevelt or his friends have been
able to find for the prompt disproot
of the allegation that he is drunk

eral Bullitt made the final argument
in the Patten cotton corner case in

Notwithstanding the reports that
the indictments have been faulty, etc,
the case was submitted to the court
on the general principles that there
have been violations of the Sherman
antitrust law.
Interest attached to the case against
Patten and others because it is an
open attempt on the part of the gov
eminent to use the Sherman law to
break up corners in wb eat, cotton and
other staples and to end agreements
to purchase in excess of the known
supply or to make contracts for the
future delivery of such products.

mara here in April, 1911, was the tes-
timony of Walter Drew counsel for
the National Erectors' association, in
the dynamite conspiracy case in fed
eral court here on Friday.
Drew was one of the leading spirits
and Burns right bower in ferreting
out the dynamite mystery and land
ing the McNamaras and having the

Drew said the initial trouble be-
tween the National Erectors' asocia-
ton and the international Association
of Bridge and Structural Iron Work
ers, out-of which the dynamiting con-
spiracy is said to have grown, arose
from the subletting of bridge con-

Boston Bridge company. employing
non-union labor.
