NEW YORK, July 24 - Former Police Lieut. Charles Becker secured order yesterday from Justice Eugene A.

 It is believed here that the last move Of Becker's attorneys will re- suit in further delay of the execu- ton of the death sentence.
 Becker was sentenced to be electro cuted next week.
 The showing for Becker represents that there has been a frame.up among the New York "higherups" who par ticipated in the graft to make a goat of Becker. 1t is said that the hear ing will involve the names of many who have been prominent in munich pal politics

ALI SUPPORT
 PRESIDENT

WASHINGTON July 24.-The New York and other newspapers with hard ly an exception praise the third note of President Woodrow Wilson to Germany in unstinted terms. The concensus of opinion is that it is the strongest note that has yet been written. that 1t leaves nothing un- said, and that there must be compli. ance with or rejection of the Amer lcan demands.
 Case Now with Germany.
 The New York Times says:
 "It rests with Germany to say whether she desires the continuance of friendly relations between the two governments and the two peoples
 Direct and Severe.
 The New York Herald says
 "The last American note is cutting ly direct and designedly severe" It says. further. that the situation de- manded such a note. as the President could not be expected to permit the controversy to drag on forever.
 Note Tells the Truth.
 The New York Tribune says:
 Tt tells the truth in words that can neither provoke just resentment. nor permit honest misapprehension "
 Not Interested in Talk.
 The New York Wolrd says:
 "The United States is no longer concerned with what Germany says it is concerned only with what Ger many does"
 Amounts to An Ultimatum.
 The Chicago Tribune says:
 "If the note is not an ultimatum in form it is an ultimatum in fact" It says that Germany cannot fail to see that the United States ex- poets action and not controversy.
 Nothing Left Misunderstood.
 The Louisville Courier-Journal says: "The latest and 1t may be the last note of President Wilson to Germany regarding that powers violation of the rights of neutrals. as perpetrated in the Lusitania outrage. leaves noth- ing to be said. nothing to be misunder- stood or doubted"

NOTE IS UP
 TO ADVANCE
 EXPECTATIONS


 WASHINGTON, July 24.-rhe sa- lient declarations in President Wood row Wilson's third German note, which was given to the press last night. is that 1t informs Germany that the United States intends to regard "as deliberately unfriendly" any re- petition of acts of German naval com manders in contraventlon of American rights; 1t declares that the German note of July is "very unsatisfac- tory" and announces that the United States will continue to contend for the freedom of the seas from what ever quarter violated, without com promise and at any cost"
 The note contained no surprises. ex- cept perhaps. in the strength of the language employed. It lived up to the advance notices, but did not SO beyond them.
 The President refused to recede a single iota from his former positions; refused to permit a confusion of Ger many's violation of the rules of in- ternational law with our controversy with Great Britain over her treat ment Of neutral shipping; insists that Germany must acknowledge respon- sibility for the loss of American lives on the Lusitania and disavow any claim of right to attack neutral mer. chant ships. or any unresisting ship carrying neutrals as passengers with out flying ample warning Co neutrals on board of them.
 The President refuses to discuss with Germany the alleged violations of international law by Great Britain, saying that those are matters which we must discuss with Great Britain herself It is suggested, however, that as far as the United States is concerned she cannot recognize any quarrel Germany might have with any other nation as sufficient cause for Germany to commit acts that are illegal and inhuman when such acts deprive neutrals of rights.
 The President says frankly that the German reply to the American note is not responsive and is disappoint- ing in its failure to bring the issues to a satisfactory conclusion.
 The suggestion of Germany that the United States designate four foreign ships in which to carry American trade is repudiated hatly with the suggestion that the United States is contending for the freedom of the seas and that such procedure would be an abandonment of the principles the United States has advanced.
 The note says that the United States is willing to make allowances for changed conditions in naval war fare. but that 1t must insist that the yight to freedom of the high seas is one that cannot be denied neutrals under any circumstance whether it be through retaliation for real or fan cied wrongs or otherwise
 The note says the events of the war have demonstrated that it is practicable for submarines to warn neutral merchant ships before attack ing them.
 The President said that the United States would be glad to cooperate with Germany in an effort to establish international rules for the freedom of the sea and the regulation of sub- marine warfare.

 PROJECT
 OUTLINED

Drilling of a lsOO-foot tunne through solid rock to carry water from Upper Annex Lake to provide additional power for the operation o the Alaska Gastineau Mining Com pany's great mill at Thane, wa. commenced yesterday morning, and details of one of the most difficult projects known to mining enginery have just been made public
 Some time late in December there will be a terrific blast in the tunnel when several tons of dynamite will be exploded to break through a wal of rock separating the lake and the tunnel. If the hopes of the engineers are fulfilled, water should come rae ing through the tunnel from the lake few minutes after the explosion and another difficulty in securing power for the mill will have been surmounted.
 What the Plans Are
 The tunnel will tap Annex Lake al a point 15O feet below the surface of the lake. At point two hundred feet from the lake, a raise will be made distance of 70 feet, and an. other drift will be bored parallel to the lake. "T's" will be cut at right angles to the lake, in order to hold the several tons of powder which will be discharged to make the connec ton. In the event that the explos. ion fails to remove the last barrier between the tunnels and the waters of the lake. diving will be resorted to. to break the wall of rock from the lake side. A natural reservoir will thus be created, without the expense of constructing dam. The lake is fed from all sides, the watersheds having twenty or more feeding streams.
 According to the company's plans the tunnels mouth will be encased with cement and flood-gates built When the connection is made with the lake. great quantity of sand will be placed in the tunnel. to cush. ion the shock of the explosion. II the connection is made with the lake the sand also is expected to serve as slow.barrier to the rush of wa ter, and the water will not be drawn off until the gates are opened.
 At the mouth of the tunnel the wa ter will be turned into a pipe 5000

 It will be remembered that on June % Gov. Slaton was forced to proclaim martial law. and the protection of a company of militia was given him. He remained at his country home two days. with a guard of soldiers sur. rounding the estate.
