WHITMAN WILL MOVE
FOR SECOND TRIAL OF
FORMER LIEUT.. BECKER

lence which he had maintained since
he who fired the shot that killed Ros-
enthal. Vallon's statement was made
after Becker in Sing Sing today had
declared he thought Vallon was the
slayer
Becker is pretty smooth said Vallon
"and his object in accusing me is plain
He hopes that the accusation and his ex-
pressions of sympathy will influence the
four men in the death house TO think he
is going to do something to aid him. His
idea is that as long as he can make
them think he is their friend they will
not confess and give information impli-
eating him to the district attorney.
Mr.. Whitman tonight said regarding
Vallon that no evidence was ever pre-
sented at his office that WALTON fired the
fatal shot.
'"rhe reports were investigated and no
corroboration was found" he said. THE
highest court in the state has decided
that the conviction of the gunmen stands
and that they committed the murder.
Becker will be brought here from sing
Sing death house late tomorrow or early
Friady and placed in the Tombs pending
a new trial or a quashing of the murder
indictment. His counsel said tonight that
the decision of the court of appeals au-
tomatieally restored Becker as a mem
her of the police department under sus-
pension.
Daily Kennebec journal., 1914-02-26

New York, Feb. 25.---District Attor-
ney Charles S. Whitman will not per-
sonally assume the responsibility of
letting Charles Becker go free on the
charge of numbering the gambler Her
man Rosenthal, it was learned tonight.
AT least it was indicated that the pros
ecutor's present intention is to move
for a second trial of the former police
lieutenant whose conviction as Ros-
enthal's slayer was set aside by the
state court of appeals yesterday.
1t was reported today that Mr.. Whit
man, feeling that he could not secure
a second conviction, owing to the
wording of the higher courts ruling
concerning evidence presented at the
first trial, planned to seek Becker's
indictment on the charge of extortion
and bribery instead, basing his allie
cations on information that as head of
the Strong arm squad" Becker mulet-
ed gambling houses. Mr.. Whitman TO-
night, however, denied he had suen
a move in mind. Interest centered to-
night on what hope the district at
torney might have of finding witnesses
to corroborate the testimony of Vallon,
Rose and Webber, who at the time
of the prosecution of Becker and the
gun men received immunity on their
promise to tell the truth. Schepps
testimony was in effect held by the
higher court TO be that of an accom-
plice.
Vallon late today broke the long ST.

Funds to Mothers
Act Great Benefit

Chicago, Feb. 25.-The New York
charities officials were told by Judge
Merritt w. Pinckney of the juvenile
court that administration of the funds
to mothers act here had resulted In
great benefits to the objects or the
charity and in economy as well.
We had 512 mothers and 1928 children
in our care Dec. 1. 1872" he said.
opponents of the mothers pension
said 1t would cost Cook county mill
ion a year. Last year it cost Wis.,
619. It is more economical to keep
children at home with their mothers
than it is to put them in institutions.
Illinois by this law has recognized the
importance of the vocation of being
a mother"
Mr.. Levy asked if fraudulent at
tempts to benefit by the act had been
made to any extent. Joel d. Hunter,
chief probation officer of the juvenile
court of Cook county, replied that such
attempts were few. 'Truancy Is al
most eliminated" said Mr.. Hunter.
1--WE insist that the mother do not
go out to work more than parts of
three days a week. They are made to
understand that their business is to
stay at home and take care of their
children"

CANADIAN PACIFIC
WILL NOT EVADE the
PANAMA CANAL LAW

Washington, Feb. 25.-Assurances
that the Canadian Pacific Railroad has
no intention of attempting to evade
the provision of the Panama canal act
barring railroad owned ships from the
canal reached Washington TO-DAY
through official channels. With TINS
assurance came further declaration
that the Canadian Pacific would not
send its fleets through the canal even
If there were no question ABOUT its
rights to do so, but because the COM
panv,s officials could see no advantage
TO be gained by changing their pres
ent routes across the Atlantic and Pa
cific.
This information was received with
narticular interest because Senator
Bristow and others in Congress nave
charged that agitation in favor OF re-
healing the section of the canal act
giving free tolls to American Vessels
was in the interest of the great cana
dian railway and steamship corpora
ton. 1t has been suggested in the de-
bates. however, that the trans-cohu-
mental roads opposed the free tolls pro-
visions not so much on account OF
the advantage given to American
ships over those of other nations, as
because of the low rates at Whlch
ships passing through the canal free
of tolls would be able to carry Ireisht
in competition with the railways

MATHEWSON WILL
SERIOUSLY CONSIDER
THE FEDERAL OFFER

Los Angeles, Cal, Feb. 25.-Christy
MatheWson, the New York National
League pitcher who has been offered
the herth of manager of the Federal
League Brooklyn club, left here today
for Marlin Springs, Tex, the spring
training camp of the New York Gil
ants. He carried with him his unsign-
ed contract to play with the Giants,
and while reiterating ais intention TO
consider seriously the Federal offer
declared he was confident of coming
to terms with the New York National
League team.
JEFF Tesreau, another Giant pitcher,
also left for Marlin Springs today.
He likewise has been offered a Fed
eral berth and was quoted as saying
that he would jump organized baseball
if the Giants did not meet his terms.
II have received the Federals' offer
and 1 will give it careful and serious
consideration" Christy Mathewson
said, in regard to the proposition made
him to manage the Brooklyn Federal
League team at his own terms.
at is not only the salary. There are
a number of other considerations
which enter into the matter" he said.
81 will think the matter over careful
ly before deciding
Some people have the report that
l have already signed my contract with
New York" said Mathewson today.
Il have not and am considering the
offer of the Federal League. l shall de-
eide on neither proposition until / see
McGraw or someone else in authority
Mathewson said that beyond mail
ing him a contract as required by
National League laws, the Giants so
far had not communicated with him,
nor had any of the league officials. he
is therefore a free agent and at ilb-
erty to bargain with the Federal
League, or to play Gilmore's PROPOSE
ton for better terms from New York,
he said.

opposition to Mayor Mitchells police
bills intended to make the commits

ficers, developed when they came up
for hearing today before the joint
legislative committees on cities.
The mayor was the chief speaker
in behalf of his measures while Job
f. Hedges, william Travers Jerome
and others opposed them Prior to ap-
pearing before the committee, the
mayor obtained the promise of Gov.
Glynn that if the Legislature passed
the bills he would sign them. But the
Governor will not send special mes
sage to the Legislature urging pass
age Of the bills as the mayor sought
to have him do During the argument
before the committee. the mayor caus-
ed comment by declaring that If any
changes were proposed in the New

would favor.

mean to end that System with its
lond, lurid record of police maladmin-
intration in New York. They day has
gone by when a police commissioner
would dare to use the force for po
litical purposes or mayor would

William Travers jerome agreed with
Mr. Hedges and other speakers that
to deny policemen the right of court
appeal would amount to an outrage.

CHICAGO CUBS DEAL
STILL ON Between
TAFT AND BENAN

Cincinnati, Feb. 25.-That the deal
between Charles P. Taft and Louis j.
Behan, an attorney representing a
Chicago syndicate, which wishes to
buy the stock of the Chicago National
League club owned by Mr.. Taft is
still on, was indicated by Mr. Behan
here tonight, just previous to his de-
parture for Chicago.
Mr. Behan had a conference with
Mr.. Taft early in the day aud then
said Mr.. Taft had refused his offer
for .hc stock. Behan also said that he
intended to take the first train for
Chicago. Instead he remained here
and conversed with some of the men,
bers OF the syndicate over the long
distance telephone.
He said tonight that he offered Mr..
Taft $3.50, 900 for his Chicago stock and
had a certified check for 100000 to
bind The bargain. However, he said, the
syndicate would not pay the rest un-
til tho players reserve rule had been
tested in court or the Federal League
had withdrawn its team from Chicago.
He alse asked that Mr.. Taft guarantee
that Infielder Sweeney and Pitcher
Pcrdue of the Boston team would be
transferred to Chicago.
Mr.. Taft said that these conditions
were impossible and that he would
not sell although the price offered was
satisfactory. The conference broke up
with the understanding that Mr.. Be-
han would have an option on the stock
if the syndicate decided to withdraw
its conditions. Just before leaving for
Chicago tonight Mr.. Behan said that
he believed that the syndicate would
agree to a straight purchase of the
stock without conditions of any kind.
