New York, May 23.-Charles
Becker, twice convicted of procuring
the murder of Herman Rosenthal, to-
aay-xefused to give up hope of escap-
ing the electric chair and started a
new fight for life. Becker refused
to wait on the sentence of death,
which Justice Seabury will pro-
nounce next Friday and for the ap-
peal to the appellate court, which
will follow.
His iron nerve still unshaken, he
summoned his counsel and even be-
fore their arrival he was hard at
work looking over the transcript of
testimony in the trial which closed
yesterday, seeking for some point yet
overlooked on which may be based
arguments In the battle he plans.
Becker believes that his chances
of escape would have been better
had he taken the stand. With him
in this stands Hartford T. Marshall,
one of hJ attorneys. Martin T.
Manton, chief of counsel for Becker,
in the fight Just ended, opposed this
view, and with him sided his partner,
Bourke Cochran and j. B. Johnson,
all asociating with him in the case.
Manton, 1t Is believed, will con-
tinue as chief of Becker's legal staff
in the preparation of his appeal, but
1t is doubtful if he will ever again
face a jury for Becker, even should
the convicted murderer be able to
shatter all precedents and win again
chance to struggle In open court
No man who has entered for the sec
ond time the death house at Sing
Sing ever has left it except through
the little green door" which leads
to the electric chair and eternity.
Bethet N"oNv,. .4u cinut.un as the
Jury was polled and each man affirmed
that his verdict was guilty as charg
ed" He looked each man In the eye,
and twice he swallowed hard. The
foreman Of the jury appeared to be
much more affected than the man
whose life was at stake The foreman
nervously fingered his cheek while
waiting for the forMalities to conclude.
The first inkling that the jury had
reached verdict came when the court
attendants announced In the main cor
ridor that the newspaper reporters
would be admitted. The press repre-
sentatives were the only ones admitted
besides counsel.
Manton Surprised.
This Is tremendous surprise" said
Mr. Manton after the verdict was an
nounced. II had expected an acquit-
tai, and the least anybody could expect
was disagreement"
''Tbe verdict speaks for itself" was
the only comment District Attorney
Whitman would make as he turned
from the courtroom and made his way
to his office.
Asked whether there would be an ap
peal, Mr.. Manton, counsel for Becker
said:
"Of course we will appeal. We have
every reason to expect as much sue.
cess as on the first appeal"
When Justice Seabury entered wear
Ing his judicial robes every one stood
while the justice bowed.
