out and fell dead before a fusilade OF
bullets. The murderers leaped into
an automobile and escaped. Weeks
later, after Becker had been arrested
the gunner were found in fiat in
Brooklyn.
Their conviction and Becker's were
based chiefly on the testimony of
three go-betweens, who turned states
evidence. These men-Jack Rise,
Bridgey Weber and Harry Vallon-
declared that they had hired the gun
men to kill the gambler, Rosenthal
at Becker's request.
Sam Schepps, a little gambler, cor
roboratel their testimony, and was
not adjudged an accomplice.
Becker was a police lieutenant, in
charge of the strong arm squad, -
whose duties were to keep in subjec-
ton the gangs of the city and to reg
ulate gambling houses and places of
ill fame. Rose, Weber and WALTON
said that Becker had made use of his
position to collect money from these
houses. Rosenthal, according to the
same witnesses, having a grievance
against Becker, was about to give ev-
idence against Becker to the district
attorney.
Becker was arrested July 90, 1912,
but nearly two months elapsed before
the apprehension of the gunner.
Their trial before Justice Golf mark
ed a record of speed in criminal pro-
cedure.

Want $4,000 men.
That Is Can of Kansas Harvest
Fields for 1914.

In "a counties. in Kansas. $4,000
men will be needed to harvest the
1914 wheat crop If conditions remain
unchanged during the next thirty
days. That is the information re-
ceived today by z. G. Hopkins, state
free employment agent, who, believes
that from $4,000 to 10000 men. may
be needed to care for the Kansas
wheat crop this year.
The news today from the ~ coun-
ties is the first accurate estimate on
the number of harvest hands needed
in the wheat counties of the state.
Some of the larger wheat counties are
not included in the report received
today in Hopkins office and for that
reason he estimates that with condi-
lions unchanged at harvest time, NOT
less than 1000 men will be needed in
the western wheat fields. The report
received today does not include the
demand for harvest hands in Stafford
Rice, Pawnee and a number of other
heavy wheat producing counties.
Within the next two weeks ii Il
probable that the free employment
bureau will receive accurate informa-
ton from every section of the state
regarding the demand for harvest
hands. At present information from
the various counties IL being secured
and later a report will be issued con-
corning the demand for help In each
section of the wheat belt.

Tie SEES HIS ERROR.
senator Thornton WIN Vote for Repeal
of Tolls Exemption.

Washington. May 9.-Convinced
that his position. both on the legal and
on the economic side of the Panama
tolls question, in 1912. was wrong.
senator Thornton. of Louisiana. today
told the senate he would now vote to
repeal the law he then voted to enact.
Senator Thornton said the position
taken by the president, in a personal
letter to him, and the message to con-
Eress in which the president said the
existence of the exemption law en-
barrassed him in the foreign relations
OF the United States caused him to
vote for repeal.
The statement of former Ambassa-
dor Choate and others who participat-
cd in the negotiating of the Hay
Rauncefote treaty had convinced him
that the United States did not have the
right to discriminate in favor Of its
ships he said.
On the economic phase of the con-
troversy Senator Thornton said that
the report of the house committee on
merchant marines had convinced him
that the free tolls Injured to the ben
eft solely of the coastwise shipping
monopoly, that fixed rates by agree
ment, beyond the reach. of American
law. He said the shipping trust was
not in need of a subsidy. such as the
exemption. -.

His Recent Illness.
Chicago, May 9.-Two months ago
Mr.. Post was hurried across half the
continent to Rochester, Mimi, for
treatment for an attack of appendicitis
which was believed to threaten his
life. The operation which was per-
formed March 10 was considered sue
cessful and he departed for his western
home apparently cured.
The illness from which Mr.. Post
suffered was first manifest last De-
cember. At first it was considered q
recurrence of a stomach trouble from
which he formerly suffered. The trip
from Santa Barbara, the winter home
ester. Mimi. was made with all the
speed possible. AS an extra precau-
ton against delay the special train
which carried the invalid was follow
ed over the different roads, by an ex-
ira engine prepared to take up the
trip should accident interfere with the
train.
The arrival at Rochester March 6
was three and a half hours ahead of
time. A crowd at the station ham,
pered the removal of the patient to
the hospital and he was examined by
