Where Nan Patterson Was Tried. After court had been called to or der in the same room where Nan Pat terson stood trial for her life, Justice Goff began the selection of a special grand jury . While this was being done Attorneys John F. M< Intyre and John W Hart, representing Lieutenant Becker, sat in the rear of the court room In the midst of the grand Jury pro ceedings. District Attorney Whitman interrupted to move that the trial of Becker bo transferred from Judge Mul queen's part of the general sessions to Justice Goff s court The motion was gta nted. Investigation of the Rosenthal mu:- der took on its most important phase today with the convening of an ex traordinary term of the supreme court to try Hie men accused of killing the gambler and to probe the alliance be tween police and criminals. Hot After Grafters. District Attorney Whitman returned from Vermont, where/he had tested over Sunday, and Immediately took up his task of running down th., assassins and grafters. He received from his assistant, A DeFord. an S2-page "in formation'' for tiling before Justice Goff, whom Governor Dix designated to preside in th.- supreme court This information went into the details of the graft and afforded an index of what the district attorney expects to ■ prove, namely, that there is an Iron clad compact between certain police officials and denizens of the under world; that Lieutenant Charles A. Becker was deeply Involved and that Becker ord. red the assassination of Human Rosenthal to prevent the gam bler from exposing the protected vice. Mr. Whitman's attention was also turned to the best time to begin John Doe proceedings, in which Justice Goff will sit as tit.- < ommittine, magistrate. He and Justice Goff agree that the John Doe investigation, which will | amount actually to a grand July pro- ! reeding held in public, so far as its : force and jurisdiction go. should be i handled very carefully at the outset I and not started upon rashly Mr. Whitmans idea based upon Mr. DeFord's recommendations. . that a ' special bureau should be organized in - the district attorney's office to take charge of the John Doe proceedings. : mass all th- available evidence, sub- | frtena witnesses and work in close touch i yy 11h the grand Jury Material Rosenthal Witness in Europe LIVERPOOL.
