BECKER'S BARGAIN
Governor Says He Will Not

Names of Graft Takers.
WANTS MANTON TO TELL

Gov. Whitman gave out a state
ment in Albany yesterday in which he
expressed his mistaken belief in Beck
er's guilt and said that he would not
bargain with a murderer for the m
Of men who a shared graft with him.
But. Gov. Whitman said. he vas willing
for Mr.. Manton to make public the
names OF these men. TIT Governor
said;
II noted In the morning papers to-
day the following statement purport-
ing to come from Mr.. Manton: 4 am
convinced that Charles Becker will give
to the public the information that he
gave to Gov. whitman through me last
Thursday. ! wish I could publish the
names myself. II ought to be done
In the interest of Justice. The Gov
ernor ought to do It,
mr.. Manton gave me no informa-
ton relative to graft or to the murder
Of Rosenthal. lie did state to me
substantially that he believed that
Becker could involve in the infamous
system 81 police blackmail. OF which
he was a part, three or four other
persons. mentioning their names.
II am willing and more than willing
that Mr.. Manton hould publish these
names. He is under no obligation Of
confidence to me. but l do not propose
myself to bargain with a condemned
murderer who simply offers to confess
that he divided his plumber for years
with three or four other persons.
police blackmail Is one offence and a
very serious one OF course. but murder
Ia quite another. And while all that
Becker would tell involving others in
his years Of graft collection Is perhaps
true. II is not even suggested that any
Of these persons were connected with
him in the commission Of the awful
crime Of which he was twice convicted
and Of which I am absolutely convinced
he Ia guilty"
II was said yesterday that among
Becker's revelations would be the cir
cumstances surrounding the death of Big
Tim Sullivan, who was supposed to have
been run over by a train. According
TO Becker, sullivan was murdered by per-
sons who were behind the killing Of
Rosenthal.
W. Bourke Cochran, who will begin
work on the appeal to the United States
Supreme Court In Becker's behalf on
Tuesday, said yesterday that the stories
printed In yesterdays papers purport-
Ing to give the grounds on which he
would make the appeal were unauthor-
Used by him M Inaccurate. Mr.. Cock
ran said that he would not disclose the
grounds of the appeal until he made his

he would be hard at work and would
say nothing.

he had left the city on an automobile
