HUNDRED NILES OF MURDER

A HUNDRED MILES OF MURDER.
IA hundred miles Of murder in the
sunny land OF France!
"A hundred miles Of homicide as foes
On foes advance;
"A hundred miles Of bloodshed with
the fell intent to Kill;
A hundred miles Of struggle vain
against the Peace Gods will;
"A hundred miles OF slaughter
shambles reaching five score
miles!
Yet the breeze laughs through the
tree tops and the big sun sits
and smiles!
A widow-orphan foundry reaching
nearly forty leagues!
A sorrow-shop five counties long TO
pay for kings i%ntrigues:
From Noyon clear to verdun roars the
ruthless leaden rain
"A million brothers striving for the
awful brand Of Cain!
Suppose that from your door to one
q mile or so away
"A line Of men were numbering
throughout the livelong day;
Just multiply that horror by a hun
dred-yes, and ten
You'll have a fair idea what a war is
like by then.
Thou God, who sees each murder
through the whole length Of the
line,
Be merciful, to whomso'er has caused
this thing malign!
But ope the eyes-O. open them!-of
all the human rae
To what this wholesale murder means;
to see as a disgrace
The thing we've labeled glorious
war" Help US to name Alright
The things we do to other men when
unto death they fight.
May never, through the coming years,
a headline need display
"a hundred miles Of murder, but a
thousand leagues away.

Evening Post.

 NEW YORK, Feb 2S.-That the wonderful secret underworld system or crime and criminals which has so long controlled the police and the cri- minal life of New York has moi lost all "f it's power since the exposures incident to. the trial "f Lieutenant
 Becker for the murder of RosenthaI. LII" gambler and the conviction of sev- eral other high officers of the police department is a matter which seems perfectly evident today.
 Lieutenant Becker has been granted a new trial and has been brought from Sing Sing to the Toombs and the at torneys for both sides are marshalli their evidence for one of the greatest legal battles the state has ever known There are number of men who have been under constant police cs- pionagc for the last six months and who are so well known in the under wlo rld that the grcencst New York de. tcctiNc could spot them q mile away and could lay his hands on them with in two hours of the time that the or der for their arrest was sent out from headquarters.
 some of the men testified for Becker at his trial in order to acquire a bet ter "standin" with the police. some of them openly deficd the police and graft system and gave som" very damaging inside information showing how the criminals and the police stood together Tor the ultimate object of graft.
 Probably none of these witnesses could have done so much harm to the police system as Bridgie Webber onel O. the best known of the professional New York thugs. There were otherl

men who knew as much as did l.ridgie. Some of them were sent ! abroad by the system and some of tbem have disappeared from their fav- "ritc haunts and it is whispered that more than one man connected with the Apartment might be easily put where Becker is if the whole truth were known
 But. until now Bridgie Webber has be"n carving on his profession of thug and murderer and the police have known just where to put their hands or ! i'm whenever he should be wanted E't of course in certain emergencies, iir'Ggic could be of value to the DO lice. so he has been to Il certain ex- t"' shielded.
 Now comes Becker back for a new trial. He knows that he has been knifed by the police force and that he will not be shielded by the men higher up and it is rnmored that in order to save the life that has become very dear to him since he has been so near to the death chair that he will tell a good deal about police methods in New York and that the big men in the de- pertinent and some of the big men in politics who are not in the depart ment. which would be considerable of q shock to the trusting community All of this hs been reported and be- lieved, and farther it was said that Rridgic Webber for the once would turn against the police force that is and give his testimony for the police lieutenant that was and that between them Becker and Bridgie would create quite a mess in certain circles.
 This was said, and the lawyers were preparing a line of questioning for the
