todny In tho Herald. The dispatch fur
ther says. , ,,
-Dr von Holloben In January, 1903, left
New York for Germany on 'nn Indefinite
leave of absenco granted because of tils

Interost wcro reported In connection with
his Journeyi first, that before leaving
Washington he did not call upon Presi

usually be done by a diplomatist tem
porarily leaving tho country, and. sec
ond, that In hlB appearance, tho Ambas
sador gave no signs whatever of the Ill

granted It was recorded also. In tho
nowspapcrs of tho time, that tho Am
bassndor was decidedly testy when askd
to dlscuBS his trip In fact, ho refused
to speak a slnglo word to any reporter
during tho two days ho remained In New
York before his steamship cleared
"Doctor von Holleben In March. 1002,
was accused by Herr Umll Wltto of
having Interested himself Improperly In

ing tho McKlnley-Drynn campaign of
1900 At the time these accusations -wero
mado Trlnco Henry of Prussia was draw
ing to n closo his memorable journoy to
the United States. Tho Kaiser was doing
nil In his power, through this trip of his
brother and in other ways, to cultivate
tho friendship of the tlnltcd States Tho
charges of Herr Wltto caused n, pro
found sensation. Had Doctor von Hol
leben been recalled at that time, and
particularly had his recall been duo to
any suggestion from the United States,
a most critical diplomatic situation must
havo resulted. However, since Herr Wltto
had been an employe of the German Em
bassy, and,' moreover, had In his posses
sion papers which ho said proved tho
activities of tho Ambassador, his as
sertions could not bo Ignored.
"Accordingly an Investigation was or
dered by the United States Secret Serv
ice. Tho Stato Department remained
silent. The German Ambassador himself
issued a statement in defense of his
conduct, stating therein that tho Investi
gation conducted by the Secret Service
had shown theso charges to bo ground
less." BRYAN-HOLLEBEN STORY
HOUSES OFFICIALS' INTEREST
No Information Disclosed or Light
Thrown on Charge.
WASHINGTON. July 21.-Polltlclans
here expressed lively interest in but de
nied familiarity with the details of a
story published in the New York Herald
today asserting that former German Am
bassador Holleben was recalled In 1903
because ho meddled In tho 1900 Bryan
McKlnley campaign to obtain the German-American
vote for the former.
It was explained that Holleben liked
Bryan's antl-lmperiallstlc views, hoping
to obtain a German coaling station in
the Carlbboan.
Tew officials' experiences dated so far
back nnd these few sold they could
throw no light on the story. State De
partment attaches declared themselves
Ignorant of tho rensons for Holleben's
recall. Tho German Embassy would not
discuss the matter.
Kaiser Denies War Prophecy
BEIH.1N, July 21. Official denial was
made today of a report circulated in for
eign countries that the Kaiser told n, del

Honesty has always been advocated by
Edward Jones, although he Is a hobo. The
only thing ho ever tried to take was a
bath, and for that he was arrested.
Jones believes In good sanitary condi
tions among homeless wanderers, and to
carry out his policy practically he strolled
Into the dispensary of tho Women's
Homeopathic Hospital and picked hla
way through long corridors to one of tha
bathrooms. Tho glistening white tile and
the rigid cleanliness all about strength
ened his ambition to be clean and ho
started to shed his clothes. But he had
not proceeded very far when an employe
discovered him and told him to cut It.
"I'm surprised to hear there's any
Tl
rules agin' people tryin' to bo clean,"
uald .Tones.
But the quick arrival of Policeman
O'Neill ended further argument, and the
ambitious bather was taken to the 20th
and York streets station.
"It's too bad that there's a law agin'
bathln'," said the prisoner,
"You can't wander In anywhere you
please and take a bath," said Magistrate
Orells.
"I suppose I'll have to wait 'til there's
a raeetin' of the board of directors," said
Jones, "an' let them vote on It."
But the humor didn't appeal to the
Judge, and as the prisoner was Inclined to
bs disagreeable, ha was held in 300 ball
to ktp the peace.

BECKER'S FINAL PLEA
FOR LIFE NOW BEFORE
GOVERNOR WHITMAN
Ex-Police Lieutenant, Con
demned to Die Next
Week, Makes Appeal to
Man Who Convicted
Him.
NirV YORK. July 21.
Charles Becker ficnt his llnnl appeal to
Governor 'Whitman last night. In It ho
related In dotal! his work as a gambllns
crusader and described his relations with
"Big Tim" Sullivan, Larry Mulligan, Her
man Rosenthal, former Pollco Com
missioner Ilhlnelandcr AVnldo'and others
whoso names havo been brought Into his
case.
Becker's account of his activities as
head of tho "strong arm sauad" when
Herman Rosenthal was murdered covers
moro than GO typewritten pages nnd Is
divided Into two parts. The first part ho
wroto In thJ death houso after the Court
of Appeals refused to grant him a thlid
trial. The second ho told last week to
his chief counsel, W. Bourlto Cockran.
Attnched to Becker's own story of tho
events that led to the killing of Rosen
thal Is a copy of the appeal which Mr.
Cockran submitted to United States Su
premo Court Justice Hughes. The former
pollco llcutcnnnt bcltbves that by throw
ing himself on tho mercy of tho Governor
ho may yet bo saved from tho electric
chair.
"Becker Is ready to die. Ho docs not
ask favors of any one, but he wants to
prove his Innocence," Mr. Cockran said.
"He did not expect to mako public Ms
story at this time. In fact, he wanted
It to bo left until after hla death, but wo
lesolvcd that he should not go to tha elec
tric chair while, such a statement lay In
our olllce.
Tho stories of Charles Becker and of
Jack Rose of the events nnd Becker's
participation In them which led to tha
murder of Ilcrmun Rosenthal aro as un
llko as white and black Becker doos'not
deny Tloso'n essential statements one oy
one, although ho denies thorn as a whole.
Some of them ho does not deny.
He docs not deny having met Herman
Rosenthal at tho Ulks Club tho Now
Year's evo before tho murder, although
ho says ho did so unwillingly, and left
as soon as he could. Ho docs not deny
having had close relations with Hose, Al
though ho says he used Hose as a stool
pigeon and as a procurer of stoolplgcons.
He ndmlts that he and Mrs. Becker called
at Rose's home, but Bays tills was to
talk over with Roso a contemplated raid.
Becker denies that he himself lent
Rosenthal $1500 on a chattel rnortgage.
Rose has said that was Becker's reason
for not raiding Rosenthal's gambling
house, Becker says that Rose lent Rosen
thal tho money.
Roso never mentioned Big Tim Sulli
van's name In tho case, Becker said that
iBIg- Tim had (12,500 Invested In Rosen
thal's place, and that he failed to raid
Rosenthal because of Big Tim's state
ment that Waldo had been "fixed."
