Washinston, May 21.-The consti- tutionalists are preparing to send a representative to Niagara Falls to confer with the South American me diators who are endeayoring to settle the Mexican problem.
 This will be done with the distinct understanding the representative is to give information as to General Carranza's purposes without commit ing the consdtutionalists to any plan for the justification of Mexico that the mediators may determine upon.
 Jose Vasconcelos, now at Montreal on a financial mission for General Carranza, is understood to be the man chosen to go to Niagara Falls. Men in close touch with the consti- tutionalists said tonight that he would arrive there within the next few days.

PROCRESSIVES
 HOLD CONFERENCE
PLANS DECIDED ON FOR ROOSE- WELT TO MAKE A COAST-TO-
 COAST CAMPAIGN TRIP.

Oyster Bay May 21.-What Colonel Roosevelt described as mot exactly a literary discussion" was held tonight lat Sagamore Hill. It was perhaps the most important political conference in which the Colone' has participated since the close Of the 1912 campaign It brought together representatives of New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio, the three states in which Colonel Roosevelt probably ivll do his hard est fighting this fall.
 At the meeting were George w. Perkins, chairman of the executive committee of the progressive nation la committee; Walter Brown of Ohio, member of the national comuittee; Clifford Pinchot proeressiye cadidate for United States Senator from Penn sylvaaia, and E. A VanValkenberg of Philadelphia, one of the foremost fig ures in the affairs of the party in that state.
 The conference was in session until late II was decided definitely that plans for Colonel Rooseve Us coastto- coast campaign trip should be adopt ed This tour probably will take the former president into almost every state of the union.
 After Colonel Roosevelt had been talking for an hour with progressive leaders, he dictated a statement which was interpreted as indicating that in one state at least he will carry the. flight into the ranks of the repubh- can party by appealing directly to its members to ignore their past affiia- tions and go with the progressives. His statement was made with partiou- lar reference to the situation in Penn. sylyania, where Senator Penrose is op- posed in his fight for re election by Mr. Pinchot
 Crises come up" said Co'onel Roosevelt. when it is the duty of all good citizens to sink party differ ences and stand up against fragrant wrongdOings in public life, or against policies fatal to the welfare of the nation at home and to the honor eff the nation abroad. All good citizens on such occasions shou'd stand to- gether without regard to past party affiliations.

DISTRICT ATTORNEY WHITMAN PLEADS FOR VERDICT OF
 MURDER IN FIRST DEGREE.
BECKER ASKS NO SYMPATHY
Judge Seabury Will Charge the Jury This Morning, When Beckers Fate Will Be Placed in Their Hands. Large Crowd Hears Arguments.

New York, May 21.-The jury which will determine whether Chas. Becker conceived the plot that rs- suited in the murder of Herman Rosenthal will have the case in its hands before noon tomorrow. The last testimony was taken this morn ing and this afternoon Martin T. Manton. Becker's chief counsel, de liyered his address to the jury. Lase tonight District Attorney Whitman completed the presentation of his ar guments, favoring the conviction of the former chief of the strong arm squad of murder in the first desree.
 Justice Seabury will charge the jury tomorrow mornir
 District Attorney Whitman early in his address attacked the motive presented by the defense for the staying of Rosenthal l-that the gam bier died in a war among gamblers.
 Tt was not a gambler who died, but a states witness.' said the prose cutor, and no testimony had been presented to indicate anything else than that Rosenthal was killed be- cause he was about to be such a wit ness. If Becker was not the mur- derer," declared Mr. Whitman, then lie tthe prosecutorl could rot see what motive there could be behind ->11e killing"
 The crime itself, Mir. Whitman characterized as more than murder "a defiance to our American insttu- tions, a challenge to our very civil. zation itself
 Defending the charge that he had entered into an agreement with the underworld to get Becker, the pros ecutor said he believed Rose and Webber and Vallon were implicated in the murder but he had no evidence against them.
 The prosecutor pointed out that had the information of Rose Webber and Vallon proved false they then would have been liable to prosecu- ton, hence they had a compelling motive for telling the truth.
 Manton, in his address in the aft ernoon, which was heard by one of the largest court crowds at a New York murder trial in recent years, declared the really guilty is not the man at the bar" Continuing, he said.
 We don't dispute that Becker , worked himself up in the police de- partment. We admit four men now dead killed Herman Rosenthal. But Becker did not have anything to do with it.
 "Who are the men between Becker and the men who did the murder? Rose, Webber and Vallon confessed murderers, thieves and degenerates, Why did they confess? Because they were remorseful? Not they. They went to the district attorney anc got promises that if they would convict Becker they would go f,~~.
 Rose isn't even good liar. He was inaccurate and gave no dates, because the defendant was an officer of the law and could prove where he was at certain times.
 "Becker's name was brought into it after Rose and his fellow conspira- tors had been caught. They looked around for some one to put the blame on and picked out Becker, the man who was responsible for so many gambling raids in this city, their natural enemy-a policeman
 "All Charles Becker and ask from you is simple justice. He wants no sympathy justice, just justice that's all

VALUES BEARD AT ssO,OOo
Novel cult Of Louisiana Lawyer Up e.
eupreme Court of the
United States.

Washington, D. C-What Is the
value Of beard? That is the novel
question which the Justices of the SUI
preme court have been asked to de-
aide.
The case is that Of A. e. O'Sullivan,
aged sixty-five. prominent Louisiana
lawyer, who placed value of 100000
on q growth Of his bear. O'Sullivan,
who formerly was district attorney,
state senator and city attorney Of New
Orleans. contends that he was forcibly
deprived of his hirsute adornment on
election day in November, 1908. On
that day, he asserts. Paul Felix, JUS
tice Of the peace in the parish OF JEFF
ferson, La, and William w. Stiles, a
deputy sheriff, conspired to prevent
Anthony Maggiore. Michael Christina
and a number OF others from voting.
o'Sullivan says he went to the polls
TO advise about the conduct of the cleo
tion. He asserts that a number OF
men imported to the election place by
Felix seized him and tied his arms to
his side. Then. he asserts, Stiles
seized his beard and, with a pair of
shears, cut it of. In the scufHe O'sul'
uvan released one Of his hands, which
was cut on the scissors.
In consequence Of the III treatment
and humiliation thus suffered O'sulli'
van brought suit in 1911 for 100000
damages under the federal civil rights
act. He waited until his assailants
had been convicted Of assault before
suing for damages.
Felix and Stiles declare the sutt4foI
damages was barred by the one-yea1
louisiana statute Of limitations. The
louisiana courts so held, bps O'6ullt
van has brought the case to the Su
preme court on the ground that the
state statute of limitations has no ep
pIication to suit arising under fed
eral statute.
