Long Fight to Save Slayer
of Rosenthal Shattered
PoliCeman's Health.
FOE OF SHOPLIFTERS
JOINED FORCE AT %
Promoted to Lieutenant, He
Quits After 25 Years Service
with Clean Record.

His health shattered by the belief
that his brother died an innocent man
and the savings of a lifetime spent in
efforts to convince the courts of that
belief. Police Lieutenant John Becker
brother Of Lieutenant Charles Becker
who was put TO death for the murder
of Herman Rosenthal. the gambler, was
retired yesterday by Commissioner
Woods, on the recommendation OF the
Board Of Police Surgeons.
When Charlie Becker was an incon-
spicuous sergeant, directing the WORK
OF patrolmen, John Becker was a mem
Der Of the Detective Bureau. During
the days when the gamblng-smashing
tactics of his brother, as head Of the
"strong-arm" squad, were being herald
ed in the newspapers, John was con
vincing shoplifters that any other city
afforded a more profitable field than
New York.
Became Policeman at Twenty-three.
John Becker entered the Police De
partment in 1891, when he was twenty
three years old. Twenty years ago he
was transferred to the Detective Blu
reau. and rapidly advanced TO the rank
of lieutenant. At the time Of the muir
der Of Rosenthal. in 1912, as the
gambler emerged from the old Hotel
Metropole, Becker's work as head Of the
shoplfters' squad had earned for him
the place as a desk Lieutenant OF the
Detective Bureau at Police Head
quarters.
Shortly after the arrest of his brother
Becker was transferred 20 the West
Thirtieth Street station, where he be-
came head Of the detectives assigned to
that district. While there an effort was
made TO implicate him in the racing
overlapping scandal, but 1t fell
through.
Becker. up TO almost the moment that
Charlie went 10 his death, believed that
something 20 show the innocence Of his
brother would develop. lie spent money
freely in following every clew, and II
was the one absorbing object Of his
life.
Fought TO Save Brother.
lie launched bitter attacks against
Bridgey Weber, Jack Rose and the
others who turned states evidence, and
at times would sit for hours pointing
out 20 friends the reasons he said he
knew why the informers sacrificed his
brother 20 save themselves.
Finally the strain began to tell, and
when he saw his efforts TO save Charlie
were hopeless he went 10 Commissioner
Woods and asked 10 be relieved of the
duty of detective chief. lie was sent 70
90 desk duty in the Whitestone station.
There only short time, doing duty
that permitted Of plenty of time to
think. Becker became victim of meian-
cholia and ueuritis. He obtained long
leave Of absence, and upon his return 10
duty was assigned TO the Long Island
City station. His condition became
such. however, that he was unable to
continue, and the Board of Surgeons
short time ago declared him unit for
police duty. due 70 neuritis.
While Becker has not reached the age
of fifty-fvc, when 1t is mandatory upon
the Commissioner 10 retire policeman
on his application. he has spent twenty
FIVE years in the service.

The cotton market was very quiet.

weather and low temperatures.
A further sharp advance in the price
of bar silver attracted bullish ~Sm-
ment in SIS relation 20 the buying
power Of silver countries. while ad-
vices from the domestic goods trade
were also Favorable TO prices The
weather, however. was considered
rather better on the average, as tenn
peraturcs were higher in the South

offerings on moderate advances served
20 restrict buying for long account.

There was some further liquidation in May
