Justice Seabury In Charge EN-
phasizes Importance of Rose
Testimony
PRISONER SHOWS
SIGNS OF AGITATION
Signs When Court Warns Jury
men Against Allowing Per-
sOnal Feeling to Sway Them
BY FRED J. WILSON.

(Stdf Correspondent United PreSs.)
NEW YORK, May 22.-For the sec
ond time in TWO years the life of
Charles Becker, ex-police lieutenant,
accused OF causing the death of
Gambler Herman Rosenthal. was this
afternoon in the hands OF l2 OF his
fellow-men. Supreme Court Justice
Seabury, concluding his comprehen-
sive instructions, gave the case TO
the jury at 1852 p. m, and ordered
a recess of court until o'clock. The
jury retired TO their room Immediate
ly, but II was said they would be
taken to luncheon before they went
far in their deliberations.
Justice Seabury explained at great
length what is reasonable doubt
and declared that Beckers guilt need
not be proved beyond all doubt" lie
explained that no whim, no disincli.
nation to cause Becker's death must
be allowed to save him If the Jury
decides the state has proved its case
Becker sat with the fingers OF MS
left hand between his lips at this
stage OF the Justices address.
Frequently he sighed so heavily
that II was audible where the news.
paper men sat.
One decision read by the Justice
stated that a chain OF circumstances
growing out in strength with Incl
dents, may reach "an irresistible re.
suit" The court brought out strongly
the fact that each fact in the chain
need not be absolutely proven" but
that IL most were so proven and the
other links seemed probable, the con
clusion was inevitable
The court held that the fury should
consider in the stories OF the three
informers the motives they had "a
protect themselves, and used the
word "acquit" for the first time In
directing the jury to free the defend
ant IL It did not believe the testimony
of Rose. Webber and Vallon.
Becker. whose face had become
drawn, the skin shining over his high
cheek bones during the time when
the claims OF the state, were detailed
frightened UP as Justice Seabury ex.
haustively narrated the defenses con.
tentions.
Those in the court room regarded
Justice Seabury's summary as emi
nently fair and remarkably compre.
hensive. lie declared the jurors must
settle I'm their own minds whether
Becker or Rose had the greater mo.
tive for the crime. Another point he
left 20 the jury was whether Mrs
Rosenthal or members OF BecIers
strong arm squad perjured themselves
In conflicting testimony as TO the al
legged talk which Becker had with the
gamblers widow.
