POLICEMEN’S
BANKROLLS
EAT EDOM
GRAFTING
NEW YORK. Aug. 10. —Bankers of
New York and New Jersey cities will
be called to testify, before the grand
jury in the investigation of the police
graft system in connection with the as
sassination of Herman Rosenthal. Dis
trict Attorney Whitman will attempt to
secure from them proof that Lieutenant
Becker and high officials made deposits
in their banks under assumed names.
The police department was given a
shock today when it became known
that information in the possession of
the district attorney shows that gam
bling houses in a certain section of the
city have been paying one police in
spector SSOO each to let them stay open.
Investigators working' for the district
attorney have learned that seventy-five
gambling houses and sixty-five other
resorts paid this to one inspector. The
tribute handed over by the resorts was
SIOO a month each.
This inspector and another one are
said to have more than SIOO,OOO in cash
deposited in banks.
Becker Deposited
Under Various Names.
Overshadowing Rosenthal’s murder,
interest sticks to the relentless in
vestigation that is showing big sums of
money salted down by Lieutenant
Becker and other police officers. In
addition to $3,000 discovered to have
been deposited by Becker in the West
Side saving bank District Attorney
Whitman has been informed:
That the “J. G. Cullom,” who depos
ited $3,000 in a Newark, N. J., bank last
June was Becker.
That the "H. C. Kennedy.” who put
$3,000 in an Elizabeth, N. J„ bank about
the same time, was Becker.

In Henry Brown, a negro who this
morning confessed to killing Eva
Green in Pittsburg last November, the
Atlanta detective department again be
lieves it has captured the man respon
sible for the majority of the “Jack-the-
Ripper” crimes last year.
Brown is 35 years old. He was cap
tured in West End last Monday, but
maintained his innocence until this
morning, when the overwhelming evi
dence forced a confession. Detectives
Coker and Hanby, who made the arrest,
believe that the other “ripper” crimes
can be traced to him.
Brown will be bound over this after
noon by Recorder Broyles.
An epidemic of negro murders oc
curred last winter. They were curious
ly similar. in each case the victim
was a woman, and each time the mur
der was accomplished on Saturday
night. The women were usually killed
by cutting their throats. Crimes of
this nature continued into the winter
The number of negro women victims
was more than fifteen.
AMERICAN DEFENDER
OF $40,000 CHALLENGE
CUP BEATS CANADIAN
CHICAGO, Aug. 10.—In one qf the
closest and most spirited yacht races ever
seen on Lake Michigan. Michicago, the
$40,000 cup defender, built by a Chicago
syndicate, showed her heels to the Cana
dian challenger. Patricia, today, winning
by three lengths. Less than ten seconds
time separated the two 30 footers at the
finish. The race was closely contested
from start to finish. The yachts never
were more than 20 seconds apart. The
breeze was good and tested the sailing
qualities of the challenger and defender
in splendid style.

GULLS HAMMER BOTH
BECKER AND WALDORF
PONCE DELEON BALL PARK. Aug.
10.—The Gulls beat the Crackers here to
day; score 10 to 0.
The Gulls began to look murderous in
the opening inning. After Maloney had
singled and Strar had doubled, Al O’Dell
pushed out a single which scored them
both. O'Dell has shoved over by far a
majority of the Gulls' runs during this
series.
In the third inning, a bit, a stolen base
and another hit scored another run for
the Gulls.
Waldorf was ejected from the game in
the fifth inning for protesting some .of
Umpire Stockdale's decisions. Wolfe, just
recalled from Albany, was sent to bat. but
produced nothing but a pop-up to the box.
Becker went in the box for the Crackers
in the sixth, and the Gulls pounced on
him at once, hammering out four hits,
and, being aided by a wild heave, a pass
or two. and a low throw, they garnered
five runs—and the game: if they hadn't
already garnered it.
Because of tile fact that both teams had
to catch early trains out of town, the
game was finished at 4:40
