 York Underworld.

New York, May 13.-.Bald Jack'' Rose, chief witness for the prosecution at the second trial of Charles Becker, charged with being the instigator of the plot that resulted in the murder of Herman Rosenthal, came from the of relentless cross examination today, bright-eyed and smiling. The bald headed informer quietly and unfalter- ingly answered every question asked him by Martin T. Manton, chief of Becker's counsel. Even when Manton Rose and tried to make him admit E that he had made his living by com mitting petty larcenies and by selling opium to the slaves of the habit o1 New York's Chinatown, the former gambler remained unperturbed.
 Roses expression never changed dur ing all the grilling. His voice was He reiterated his story of underworld intrigue and murder with 8. calm and matter-of-fact air. He showed nc fear, no emotion and no .remorse, ex- cept on one occasion. Then he said his conscience pricked him when he thought over how he had plotted tc have Herman Rosenthal murdered.
 Manton managed to get Rose to ad- init there were minor discrepancies between the testimony he offered al the first trial and that he gave on d. rect examination yesterday. Rose sait his testimony yesterday was more complete in places than his former testimony. At the same time, he said he told some things at the first tria which he did not mention at this one

SCORES OF WOMEN
 PAINTED AT CHICAGO.
So Gdeat Was Crush to View cata-
 falque in Municipal Building.

Chicago, May 13-The return of the body of Samuel Meisenberg, the Chicago boy who was among the first of the American marines to lose his life in the occupation of Vera Cruz, was marked by a panic in the city hall where the body lay in state for three hours today. So great was the crush to view the cstafalque in the rotun- da of the municipal building that scores of women tainted, while men, caught in the smothering press, cried for air. Only the names of twelve women who succumbed were obtained by the police, but among these was Mrs. Carl Meisenbug, mother of the dead hero.
 Cool-headed elevator men did much to avert disaster. They opened the doors of their cages and carried those nearest them to upper floors. Mean time policemen tried to quiet those in the corridors and others at the en- frances fought to restrain the thous- ands who blocked the streets outside and who, ignorant of the situation inside. made desperate efforts to crowd within the doors.
 Finally Police Lieutenant James Conroy sent in a riot call, and the reserves succeeded in restoring order. A photographer who exploded a flash light powder is said to have con- tributed largely to the disorder.
 The excitement and grief of the day proved too much for Mrs. ,Meis- enburg. The first incident to affect her occurred at the railway station Ss the procession of soldiers. police and civilians was forming to escort the body to the city hall after its ar- rival from New York.
