next few days, and the show will be

Mr.. Barfeld states that there will
be about twenty-six participants in
this minstrel, and that home talent
will be used exclusively. He further
states that several nearby towns
will be visited by the organization,
and. as here, the receipts devoted to

While the grounds are being given

citizens, and the amount will be
considerable thus the minstrel.
Also, at different public places in
the city have been put contribution
boxes for the reception OF donations
to the park, and it is hoped that
everybody will drop in a little cash.
At first it was thought that Fitz-

u haven't seen the opinion Mr.. Shay
said last night. and therefore can say
little and only speak In a general way.
But ] do not believe Becker ever will
die In the electric chair. That would
be judicial murder. Becker is limo
cent. and that statement isn't guess
work, hut Is made because of my
knowledge of the facts involved.
NO man should be put 10 death on
the testimony OF the witnesses who
testified against Becker. The new cor.
roborative witnesses at the second trial
were no better. That negro, Marshall.
took back all his testimony. and Mrs.

band mad been executed aud the man

"The decision is absolutely Just" said

punishment which they deserve. Our
statute has safeguarded The defendant
who is assailed by sue testimony By
prohibiting a conviction upon that
alone and by requiring that 4, shall
be supplemented by co%rroborative evil
dence pointing TO him as the guilty
party. The jury were properly warned
that in Weighing the words of Rose.

these witnesses had been granted i'm
munity. provided they did no, actu-
ally fire the fatal shots, should be

fact that they had an interes, TO

Plenty Of Evidence.
After the most careful cons.dera-
ton which I have been able 10 give the
question l cannot escape the conclu-
sion that there Is evidence In the rec
ord other than hat of the accom-
plices tending to connect the defend
ant with the commission Of the crime.
THE principal sources Of %corrobora-
ton relied upon by the prosecution
were:
Il. The testimony OF the colored
man James Marshall. as to the pres
ence OF Rose at the so-called Harlem
conference.
-. The testimony OF Deputy Com
missioner George A. Dougherty to the
effect that the defendant on the 18th
OF July. 1912. denied that he had seen
or heard from Rose since the Thurs
daU mr. Lertda, Afa.- 49, --.s,-
(Which occurred on Tuesday. the 16th),
when he must have known that Rose
was then in hiding in the city and
was being sought by the police fer
completely In the murder: and
y. The testimony OF Charles r.
Pitt. a former friend and intimate
associate OF Becker. who appears to
have turned against him since his
first trial. to the effect that the de-
PENDANT expressly warned him before
hand to keep away from Times Square
on the night when the murder was
committed.
The witness S~chepps, who was
sworn In behalf Of the People in the
nrst trial to furnish the necessary
corroboration. was not called upon the
second trial. The prosecution now
relied chiefly upon the evidence of
Marshall, Dougherty and Pitt, two OF
whom had not testified in the case
before.
I'm addition to these considerations
i: II a matter of importance hat there
is lacking on this appeal the basis for
the severe criticisms which on the
former appeal were passed on the
Peoples case in respect TO the alleged
Harlem conference because of the fall
ure to call the chauffeur who was said
to have conveyed some OF the con-
spirators IN II |
