BECKER MAY REVEAL
NAMES OF SIX MEN
WHO DIVIDED GRAFT
Convicted' Murderer Ex
pected to Tell of Identity
of "Higher Ups" Behind
New York Strong Arm
Squad.
NEW YOItK, July 3.-Charles Becker,
In tho death house at Sing Sing, will
reveal before he goes to tho electric chair
tho names of tho Police Department of
ficials, living and dead, with whom he
divided the $100,000 graft money that was
wrung from the gamblers and Illegal
resort keepers In hla violent career as
commander of the strong arm squad,
That was the prediction mado yester
day by the condemned man'a lawyer,
Martin T. Manton, who gave to tho Gov
ernor on Thursday the names of six men
who worked In the background and took
tho cash that Becker ground out of evil
doers. No( all of these men aro living,
but those that aro allvo ought to be shak
ing In their shoes, according to Mr. Man
ton, because Becker Is desperate now
that hope Is virtually gone.
Tho lawjor himself would not make
public tho names of the officials accused
by Becker. Ho said ho wan bound not
only by the ethics of his profession and
his promise to Governor Whitman, but
was rcstrnlned nlso by tho possibility that
Bomo of tho men named by Becker might
bo falsely accused. He is certain, how
ever, that Becker Intends to tell, and ex
plains that Becker Is swayed mostly by
tho feeling that he doesn't want other
men to be used as tools and then cast
asldo when they are no longer useful and
merely dangerous.
"I am convinced," said Mr. Manton
last evening, "that Charles Becker will
glo to tho public tho information that
he gave to Governor Whitman through
me last Thursday. I wish I could publish
the names myself. It ought to be dono
In tho Interest of Justice. Tho Governor
ought to do It, but of course that Is hla
business. 1 may not criticise him.
"But Becker will make a clean breast
of the grafting. He will Issue a state
ment, not for money, but for the pur
pose of Justly dividing the guilt of graft.
He doesn't want to die, if die he must,
and leave on earth a set of men who
might use otherB as he has been used.
A large amount has been offered to
Mm to make a statement that could be
published by one newspaper alone. He
has refused that offer. When he Is
ready to talk, he will talk for all the
newspapers and all tho people."
ALCORN FOR HIS OLD POST
Ex-City Solicitor May Opposo Con
nelly for Nomination.
James Alcorn, who was defeated for re
election as City Solicitor four years ago

today that he may be a candidate for one
of tho Common Pleas Judgeships.

A. Mitchell Palmer continues to with

Palmer passed through Philadelphia last
night and would give no Intimation of his

Lehigh avenue, where the Municipal Band

It petmed to Mike as if there was some
thing lacking in the entertainment It
wasn't "getting over," and he was afraid
somebody might be getting bored. After
pondering the problem Mike concluded a
few fancy steps were needed to complete
the exercise and he was the man to
execute Wieni He presented the Lehigh
