THE CITIZEN, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1912.
COFF (MB It
Becker May Know his Fate
Before Nightfall.
DEFtNDANT VERY CONFIDENT.
He Declares, "No New York Jury
Would Send a Man to the Chair
on the Lies of a Lot of
Crooks."
New York, Oct. 24. The best and
the worst for Lieutenant llcckor has
been said. The Jurors went to their
hotel Inst night to sleep over Mr. Mc
liityru's furious denunciation of the
Informers and of District Attorney
Whitman and over Assistant District
Attorney Frank Moss' calm analysis
of the defense's own evidence as proof
that Becker's was the reckless and
Indomitable will behind the murder of
Herman Rosenthal.
The charge to the Jury wns delivered
by Justice Goff at 10:30 o'clock this
morning. It Is probable that a lout
noon the Jury will rctlro to make up
their minds whether lleckcr was the
master or Uie victim of murderers.
On the eve of this decision lleckei
himself professed to be confident that
"no New York jury would send n man
to the chair on the lies of a lot of
crooks." His lawyers, Mr. Mclntyre In
particular, said that they would not
accept a verdict of murder In the sec
ond degree It had to be complete guilt
or complete Innocence. The Jury can
return n verdict of any degree of mur
der It pleases.
Look For Disagreement.
The opinions of Intelligent and
thoughtful men who were a part of
the audience which listened to Mr.
Melntyre's summing up In the morning
and Mr. Moss review in the after
noon were Interesting in that there
was practically a unanimous belief
that the best the defenso could hope
for was a disagreement
Mr. Mclntyre, a master of Invective
and of Insinuation, adept In befogging
bad points and Illuminating good ones,
given to sentimentality and appeals to
the emotions, spent most of his force
attacking Becker's accusers and of at
tributing to them motives of the most
villainous sort. He laid Becker's
prosecution to the cravennesa of
frightened murderers and to the am
bitious designs of tho district attor
ney, whom ho charged with fathering
a conspiracy. He pictured the ac
cused lieutenant as a brave and noble
police officer In peril of a slimy crew.
Often he Inverted or abbreviated testi
mony so as to put before tho Jury only
such parts as appeared to favor the
defendant His analysis of testimony
was largely a charge that tho main
state witnesses were porjurcrs.
Mr. Moss, whoso manner was not un
like that of a Sunday school superin
tendent addressing his class, but whose
address was that of a well trained and
able lawyer, was at all times restrained,
courteous and fair. For the moat part
his summing up was a calm condensa
tion of the main evidence produced by
tho state and a shrewd dissection of
the weakness of tho defense's evidence.
Defends Mr. Whitman.
Rebuking Mr. Mclntyre for tho Insin
uations that tho district attorney was,
too, a conspirator for ambition's sake,
Mr. Moss told the Jury that if Rose nnd
Webber and Vallon had not been ac
cepted as state's witnesses ten murder
ers Instead of throe would hnvo gone
unpunished. If the character of the
witnesses aguinst Becker was bad it
must be remembered that Becker was
a man of bad associations and that
Becker must stand or fall by the sto
ries of such men. Mr. Moss, taking up
tho testimony bit by bit argued that
the state, by direct and circumstantial
evidence, had shown that the motive
for tho murder was Becker's fear that
his grafting and dishonor as a police
man would be exposed by Rosenthal
He analyzed the testimony for the de
fense and told tho Jury that Becker's
main witnesses had convicted thorn
selves out of their own mouths of ly
ing. And he closed by telling the Jury
that their duty was to protect civiliza
tion against such men as Becker.
No such crowd had stormed tho cor
ridors of the criminal courts building
hb strove and fought for entrance to
tliu trial. Men and women came armed
with all kinds of personal cards and
passes Issued by this nnd that person-
ugu. but few, however great their In
fluence, were admitted uuIcsb they had
butfiuesa Iu tho courtroom or had tho
permission of tho Justico, the district
attorney or counsel for tho defense.
Some of those who had scats were
Judge and Mrs. F. n Gary. Magistrate
and Mrs. Corrlgan, Lewis Nixon and
several Justices of tho supremo court
DOG GUARDS DEAD MASTER.
Blind Canine Faithful After Death in
Massachusetts Woods.
Boston, Oct 3-1. Guarded by his
blind dog, the body of Hosea B. Little-
field was found in a clump of bushes
i Wyoming station, near this city,
Llttlefleld's throat was cut Ills body
was considerably decomposed. The dog
was nearly starved, but refused to eat
until he bad seen his master put under
ground.
Tho faithful pet. had been Llttlefleld's
companion for many years. It was only
by using strategy that those who burled
the body wcro able to approach the
dog and tho master bo was so dutifully
watching over.
