President McKinley a little later offered him a post as one of the appraisers of the port of New Yoik. Constituents of his in the Onelda-Herklmer district held a mass meeting and requested him to con tinue to represent them in the na tional house of representatives, which he accordingly did. While chairman of the state convention In 1900 Mr. Sherman was a rival of Theodore Roosevelt for the vice presidential nomination. The congressman In 1902 was boomed lor the speakership of the house, but he withdrew his candidacy In a lettpr to his fellow congressmen Df New York, declaring that he did not wish to jeopardize the chances of New York to ec?t a speaker, there being then two candidates from the Empire state in the Held. In congress Mr. Sherman .jh strongly identified with Indian affairs, and at the time of his election to the vice presidency in 1908 was the chairman of the committee on Indian affairs. .Mr. Sherman succeeded Represent ative Babcock of Wisconsin as chair man of the Republican congressional committee in charge of the campaign. President Roosevelt had suggested that, as so much was being said in criticism of contributions by corpora tions, smaller contributions should be (ought among the people generally and the future vice president became famou.i under the sobriquets of "Dol lar Jim" and "Send Your Dollar, Jim," as the solicitor of dollar contributions. TAFT DEEPLY MOVED President Hears News of Sherman' Death at Banquet Table. President Taft was much affected hen he received the news of Vice President Sherman's death. The presi dent was seated at the banquet-table in the Thirteenth regiment armory, Brooklyn, as the chief guest of the navy yard employes after the. launch ing of the new battleship New York. The message was brought to him by a secret service man. "Oh, my God!" he exclaimed. Then he told those nearest to him of the death of Mr. Sherman. Tears sprung to his eye3. When the navy yard con structor finished his speech the presi dent arose and said: ".My friends, three years ago, at the launching of the Florida, you all met the vice president of the United States. Word has just come to me that he Is dead. Those who knew him, loved hi:n. His death is a great loss to all. I venture, therefore, to ask you all that this meeting be adjourned In honor of his memory." - t THE GREATEST Furs, Waists, Dresses, Skirts, &c. j $20,000.00 Men's and Boys' Suits, Overcoats, Sweater Coats, WHITMAN AFTER MENjlGHER UP Altacks New York Police "Sys tem" In High Places INSPECTOR ON THE CARPET Summoned to Explain His Activity In Behalf of Four Gunmen Who Are Accused of the Rosenthal Murder. District Attorney Whitman Is facing the police "system" and has set his strength to deliver a crushing blow. He started in by Issuing a subpena for an uptown Inspector of palice, who, it is alleged, ha3 been active in an effort to discredit Jack Rose, Rriduy Webber and Harry Vallon, the state's chief witnesses in the Rosenthal mur der case. He uncovered, it is said, an attempt to bribe into silence William Shapiro, the driver of the gray mur der car, who lately became a state's witness. Mr. Whitman Is convinced that the four gunmen Waiting trial for the murder of ' Herman Rosenthal would have confessed had they not been reached by the "system." "If the people of New York think the storm has blown over they are mistaken," -Mr. Whitman said. "The clean-up of the police has Just begun." Mr. Whitman has a statement from Shapiro that an emissary of the "sys tem" offered him $2,000 If he would 6tick to his non-committal policy. This incident is to be made the sub ject of Investigation by the new grand Jury. Mr. Whitman has evidence that the system is controlled by a triumvirate consisting of a civilian employe of the police department, an Inspector of po lice and another civilian once prom inent In the city administration. The Interests represented by these men, Mr. Whitman believes, are making a desperate fight to have the Rosenthal case closed with the conviction of Charles Becker. Their tactics, the district attorney has renson to believe, aim to break down the strong cade that has been presented against all the men under Indictment for the mur der of Rosenthal.
