BECKER EXECUTED - WEARS
WlFE'S PICTURE TO DEATH
Ossining, N. Y, July 3O.-Charles
A. Becker, ex-pOIice lieutenant and
car Of New YOrk's underworld for
several years, was put to death in the
electric chair this morning, the fifth
life to be taken by the state for the
killing of Gambler Herman Rosen-
thai.
Until the very last moment Becker
was man of iron composUre and
until the very last moment he protest
ed his innocence.
I'm the presence Of my God and
your God proclaim my absolute in
nocence of the foul crime for which
1 must die" he declared in a state
ment he gave out at 4:3O this morn
ing. You are now about to witness
my destruction by the state which is
organized to protect the lives of the
innocent. May Almighty God par
don every one who has contributed
in any degree to my Untimely death.
And now on the brink Of my grave
I decIare to the world that am proud
to have been the husband of the pur-
est, nOblest woman that ever lived,
Helen Becker. This acknowledge
ment is the only legacy leave her.
I bid you all gOod-by. Father, am
ready to go. Amen"
But once since he has known that
there was no hope of any further de-
lay of the execution has he shown
the least emotion and that was last
night near midnight, when his wife,
defeated at the end of an hour she
spent pleading with Gov. Whitman
to spare her husband, visited him in
the death house and, looking at the
clothes he had been given in prep
aratiOn of his execution, she cried:

MAY PRODUCE
INVISIBLE BATTLESH|PS
Already serpentine Lines on Hull
and tunnels Make Destroyer
Fleet Hard to See.

If experiments now in progress are
successful invisible wars'ps' may be-
come features of the United States Navy
in the near future. The experiments
are being conducted with the destroyer
fotilla at Newport, r. l., and have pro-
ceeded far enough to demonstrate that
the destroyer fleet is now practically
invisible at sea, even with the aid of
binoculars. 1t is predicted that it may
he only question of time when the
bulky battleship also can be made prac-
tically invisible at the range at which
naval battles are now fought.
The principle which the navy is now
following is exactly the same principle
which animals employ when their best
means of defense lies in suiting their
outer coloring to their environment
Not so many years ago the United
States fleet was painted white, one of
the most striking colors on water in
existence. At the present time the
iaries are painted battle gray" Now
that practice is to be discarded on the
ground that a solid color of any kind
can be distinguished at sea, whereas a
notified surface, like the surrounding
water itself. breaking up into lights
and shades, will make almost any bulk
invisible at distance proportionate to
size.

IN THEORETICAL "WAR"
WITH EUROPEAN POWER
Regiment of Business and Profess
sional Men Part Of Force "De-
Tending" American Coast.

PLATTSBCRG, n. Y, August 27-A
week of war practice upon which the
regiment of business and professional
men at the camp of instruction en-
barked today constitutes part of an
elaborate theoretical war with a Eu-
ropean power. According to the plan
this power recalled it's ambassador Au-
gust Is, and the United States govern
ment ordered the concentration of the
greater part of the regular army and
one brigade of the New York militia
at Albany. Troops of other coast
states were ordered to the defense of
harbor forts, while border states were
directed to assemble their troops along
the frontier to be reinforced by de-
tachments of regular cavalry and field
artillery and by the militia of central
states.
War was theoretically declared by
the European power and the com
mander of the LIST Brigade at Platts-
burg received information that the Red
army of invasion had crossed the Can
adian border, seized the railroad juno
ton at Rouse's Point, n. Y, and had
taken Malone, n. Y. The commander
of the Blue army of defense of which
the business mems regiment is a part
decided to advance against the enemy
at Rouse's Point before he could be
reinforced from Malone.
Between $500 and 5000 men will fig
ure in the maneuvers.

animals and particularly water fowl,
noting at what distance their color en-
abled them to become invisible to the
naked eye and under glass, is largely
responsible for the navy taking up the
problem.
Mr.. Thayer conducted a series of en-
periments for the Navy Department a
year ago and demonstrated that under
certain conditions the model of a
torpedo boat painted by him could not
be seen, while a similar vessel painted
battle gray was plainly visible.
AT Newport the destroyers have been
painted in various ways to test their
visibility Some of them have been
painted like checkerboards, in alter
nate squares of black and white, but
the most elusive combination discover
ed to date consists of horizontal, ir-
regular, serpentine lines of black paint
along the sides of the destroyers with

Calls Strike a Revolt.

THE Colorado strike was revolt by
whole communities against arbitrary
economic. political and social domina-
ton by the Colorado Fuel and Iron
Company and the smaller coal mining
companies that followed its lead. This
domination has been carried to such an
extreme that two entire counties of
southern Colorado for years have been
deprived of popular government, while
large groups of their citizens have
been stripped of their liberties. robbed
of portions of their earnings, subjected
70 ruthless persecution and abuse. and
reduced to a state of economic and po-
1itical serfdom. Not only the govern
ment of these counties. but of the state,
has been brought under this domina-
ton and forced or induced to do the
companies bidding. and the same COM
panies have even fouted the will of the
people of the ration as expressed by
the President of the United States"

stripped the construction of forts. 1t
merely shows that fortresses should be
constructed to Withstand the attacks
Of artillery even heavier than any in
existence at the time. When the pro-
tecting walls at Antwerp were built, no
one dreamed that they would ever have
to withstand the gatherings of 42-centi-
meter siege pieces. because guns of
that caliber had not been conceived.
The real test OF the value of modern
Notifications will come II the Germans
engage the really up-to-dat type of
French or Italian forts, or if the allies
attack the German coast defenses.
In this connection it is interesting to
note that the only weapon which is be-
lieved to be really effective against the
turret fort IS the ordinary rife, in the
hands of experienced infantry. 1t
seems strange that rifle could succeed
when heavy artillery fails, but men
versed In military affairs declare that
this Is the only method of successfully
attacking one of these big tortoise
forts
Inc reason Tor this lies in the fact
that all forts of this nature in modern
warfare are protected from the enc
mys advance by carefully prepared
series of trenches and barbed-wir en-
tanglements, radiating for several
miles. to prevent the emplacement of
heavy artillery. The big guns are
therefore powerless against the fort
because they cannot come within range
The Intervening ground must first be
cleared by the advance of rifie-armed
infantry, aided by the pole or tube
system of eliminating the wire entan-
clements. This Is a device resembling
a long. hollow mast. made in sections
and mounted on rollers. SO that it may
be pushed under the wires. A number
of these tubes. loaded with explosives,
is pushed under the entanglements
and the fuses lighted. The resultant
explosion clears away a sufficient sec

the unhampered onward march of the
infantry. The trenches would then be

Turret Forts.
Rv Frederic 7. Haskin.
By Frederic J. Haskin.

An aviator, flying over Germany or
observing the more modern type of
Notifications along the border of
France, might see what he took to be
the backs of huge tortoises. lying prone
upon the ground with only their black
rounded shells showing above the
earth level From a distance of few
hundred feet the pent-up possibilities
of these rounded objects would not ap-
pear, but when Uncle Sam sent num-
Der of military observers abroad at the
commencement of the present war in
Europe, he instructed them to study
carefully these Notifications.
The tortoiselike objects are the WIS.,
ible portions of the modern turret fort,
the outgrowth of the obsolete fortifica-
tons which rose with sheer walls like
the castles of old.
The evolution of the fort. the deter
mination of it's modern possibilities,
particularly the lessons to be learned
regarding construction and placing,
ranks among the most important OF the
problems that are to be determined II
the United States is to increase its mil
itary strength. Uncle Sam has the
facts.
