INDICTMENT Of NEW YORK POLICE LIEUTENANT
REVEALS H|DE0USNESS OF POLICE SYSTEM
SITUATION DANGEROUS.

London. July 30.--The conflict be-
tween the Young Turks party and the
military league is becoming more
dangerous. The government recog-
nizes the necessity of the demand for
dissolution, but seeks constitutional
means and is endeavoring to dissuAde
the military league from violent meas
ures. The Times in describing the re-
markable situation in Turkey con-
trasts the present position with the
successes of the Young Turks in 1905.
Today not only are Bulgarians, Greeks
and Christians bitterly hostile to the
organizers of the 1908 revolution or
rather the coterie issued therefrom
but Albanians are also hostile. The
army has turned against them, and
the days Of the all-powerful caucus
are APPARENTLY numbered. The situa-
ton is due to the fact that Turkey is
unripe for the application of consti.
tutional principles and the discovery
and realization of the threatened mill
tary program will be the complete re-
versal Of positions. placing the Turks
at the mercy of their more numerous
progressive Christian fellow country
men.

The public prosecutor, following
the trail of the three confessions, con-
tinued search for evidence that
would implicate those higher up than
Becker. and more indictments of
police officials are expected by the
district attorney.
The arrest of Becker lays bare a
scandal in the police department that
threatens to shake it TO its foundation
for Prosecutor Whitman believes the,
story of police graft has only half
been told
Bald Jack" Rose confessed that
Becker came to him and was fairly
desperate over Rosenthal's intention
of telling all he knew of his relations
with the police lieutenancy. said:
"Rosenthal has lived too long He
has got to be put out of the way
Rose told the public prosecutor and
the grand jury how the murder band
was hired at the instigation of Becker
and said that after the killing Becker
met with Webher and himself and
promised complete police protection.
Terror stricken, Rose. Webber and
WALTON spent the night in the public
prosecutors office fearing they might
be murdered If taken to the Tombs
Whitman believes his case against
Becker is without flaw. that the
confessions taken separately and from
the testimony of the other witnesses.

Rose. who says he was Becker's
gambling house collector. felt the
ground slipping from under him. day

he realized he is being made to bear
the weight of the crime alone. His
counsel advised him to confess. Rose
became completely terrified. To his
counsel, he said
If YOU see to it that my wife and
children are protected I'll come across
and tell the truth about this I'm
afraid it will be the end of me No
cell on earth will be strong enough
TO keep life in the man who gives
up about this killing"
1ntimations were made to Rose that
an indictment might he expected

ARCHIBALD CASE
OVER TILL FALL
Senate Members Declare the
Trial Will Not be Rush
ed During Summer.

Washington, July 30.-The def
mite assertion was made by leading
members Of the senate last night that
the trial of Judge Robert w. Arch
bald of the commerce court will not
be undertaken by the senate court of
Impeachment before next fall. The
question was not decided today when
Judge Archibald appeared to answer
the charge of the house of represen-
tatives, but vote will be taken on
the matter before the end of the
week.
The maximum strength of the SEN
ate during the tariff fight last week
was Sc, two-thirds of the total mem
bership. Many senators are planning
to leave Washington shortly after
the first of August. Senate leaders
claim it would be difficult to hold the
senate together; and in view of the
known desire of Judge Archibald for
postponement of the case it is ex-
pected that majority of the senate
will favor it.

Colonel Roosevelt sent message
yesterday to the progressives of Mis-

vention today. He was told that re-
cruit from the democratic party in
Missouri had prophesied chat the
Roosevelt ticket would be supported
by thirty per cent of the democrats of

can votes as we'll.
1t is Colonel Roosevelt's belief that

that he has good chance Of carrying
most Of the northeastern states, by
drawing from the democratic party a.
substantial measure of support.
The movement in Kansas in a ruling

Washington, July 3o-The admin

value was likely to enhance in the fu-
