NEW YORK, October 22.-(Special
to The Advertiser )-The defense in the
trial of Police Lieutenant Charles E.
Becker, charged with the murder of
Herman Rosenthal, the gambler, on
July 16, in front of the Hotel Metro
pole, rested its case at noon today with
out calling Becker to the stand.
Justice John w. Golf declined to let
the defense rest, and reopened the case
without motion from counsel, in order
to take further testimony along the line
of the alleged conspiracy against Beck
er by Rose, Weber, Harry Vallon and
Schepps.
Justice Goff taking matters in his
own hands, said:
.'There were certain questions put by
the defense to this witness, Jack Sui
livan, which | excluded before b, -he
court IS direction"
Jack Sullivan was recalled
"What did Rose say to you in the
council room - asked the district at.
torney of Sullivan.
He said, 'Self.preservation is the
first law of nature. l had to testify
against Becker to save my life. -
"What did Bridgie Webber sayf"
lie sald, Il am the happlest man IN
the world. That - Rosenthal
Is dead, and don't have to worry about
his getting me now. Say, Jack, it's
all been fixed up by the district attor'

HE SAYS PLANTERS
NOT CONTRIBUTING
Shingle Declares Cupid Is Pay
ing His Own Way at His
Own Request.

Denying that the planters had con-
tributed towards the expenses of Prince
Kuhio 3 campaign for election as Dele
gate to Congress, Chairman Robert w.
Shingle, of the territorial central COM
mittee, yesterday issued the following
statement
"Not only is the report that the
planters have contributed $4,000 to-
wards his campaign untrue" he de-
clared, "but it is SO utterly without
foundation as to brand it as having
been manufactured out of whole cloth.
One of the first pieces of business trans
acted by our committee was the con-
sideration by it of letter from Prince
kuhio concerning payment of campaign
expenses. While soliciting the support
of the committee of his party, he ex-
planned in no uncertain terms that no
financial aid whatever was either asked
or would be received. Cupid is paying
his own expenses by his own request.
If the planters have been solicited for
aid in the election of Delegate to Con-
gress or have given aid or for that mat
ter if any one else has, it is not for
Cupid, but for some other candidate.
81 might say in passing that every
indication is that Kuhio will get big
ger vote than ever. Reports from
Kauai. Maui and Hawaii are to the eff
feet that Republicans and Democrats
alike are working for him. On Oahu
enthusiasm for Mr.. McCandless amongst
even Democrats has vet to be discov-
cred. If Mr.. McCandless carries one or
possibly three precincts outside of his
own, he may count himself lucky.''

PARIS MAKES HIT At
REPUBLICAN RALLIES
(From "Wednesday Advertiser1

FROM endnesuay AuNerulser)
Two large and enthusiastic crowds
greeted the Republican candidates who
visited Waipahu and Eva last night
and both meetings will go down on the
Republicans records as the largest that
have ever been held at either of these
two places.
The candidates for the board of su-
pervisors, the senate and the several
county offices spoke first at the Wal.
pahu meeting and, as soon as they
were through, were sent over to the
Eva meeting by automobiles, which
were held in readiness to convey the
different speakers.
Edwin IL. PARIS, candidate for the
board of supervisors, delivered a
straightforward address and spoke in
both Hawaiian and English. Mr..
Paris touched on the receptive mood of
the Hawaiian electorate and their evil
dent desire to learn the facts regard
ing proposed legislation and the
pledges of the prospective candidates.
In referring to the attitude of a good
many Hawaiians Mr.. Paris said that
he felt that they announced themselves
as Democrats, because they thought
that the Democratic party stood for
the poor people. The speaker asked
his listeners to stop and consider that
it was Republican. prosperity that they
We're living on and that it was Repub-
lican activity that was bettering the
general condition of the Territory.
According TO Mr.. Paris, the Repub-
lican nominees for the board stood for
unity and concentrated effort and
would secure for the city and county,
betterments which would be forth
coming for the money which was now
being expended. The present candi-
dates stood for the fair apportionment
of the revenue IN the several districts
and the just distribution of public
patronage If elected the Republi-
cans would give the people the best
that was in them for business-like
administration.
