former police lieutenant and head of

the instigator of the murder of Her.

interest in the trial has not dimin-

demand for admission to the court
room being as eagerly sought as at the
first Becker trial nearly two years ago.
Until yesterday the story of the al

touches and the testimony of Rose,
corroborated by Vallon and Webber,
remained as the chief evidence upon

Derg,. widow of Lefty Louie" one of
the four gunmen executed on April
ID last, for his in the killing of Rosen-

Mrs. Rosenberg admitted that her
testimony at the trial of the gunmen
had little or no basis of truth, but
declared that she had so testified to
save her husband from the electric

in telling under oath of the meetina

Liquor Interests
Are Much Aroused
Over Prohibition
Special to The Telegraph

Washington ID. C., May 16.-The
proposed Hobson nation wide prohibit
ton amendment now under considera-
tion in Congress has aroused the liquor
interests and the executive committee
of the Nati"1al Wholesale Liquor
Dealers of America will go before the
country with a statement scouting
prohibition.
T. M. Gilmore, president of the Ma
tional Model License League, made an
address on the subject: What Does
the Prohibition Movement Mean?"
Does it mean that the people of
this country are determined to sur
render the use of wine, beer, whisky
cordials, etc, and confine themselves
in the future to grape juice, coca cola
lemonade, pop and the like?" asked
Mr.. Gilmore.
Does it mean that nation that
consumed last year lao, 100000 gallons
of whisky, 1000, 100000 gallons OF
beer, 50,000,0OO gallons of native
wines, and millions of gallons of i'm
ported whiskies, brandies, gins, runs
champagnes, still wines and the like
besides the vast amount of moonshine
whisky that is being produced in the
Southern States under the auspices
and protection of what we know as
prohibit,onists does Ii mean that
such nation expects at one fell
sweep by the fiat of law to surrender
a privilege that 1t utilizes so exten-
sively as indicated by these figures
and depart all at once from the ways
of our forefathers, and the ways oi
all other civilized people, and take q
place with the Mohammeda in theiI
adherence of the fermented juice OF
the grape?
