Cases in New York.
XE" YORK, Sept. 3. Lieutenant
Charles A Becker, accused of the mur.
der of Herman Rosenthal, the gambhr.
Inst a flch' to deluy his trial when ar
raigned before Justice Goff of the su
preme court today
His counsel. Attorney M Intyre,
asked a postponement, but tins over
ruied. and the police lieutenant was or.
drrod to plea.l to the indictment. Beck
er entered a plea of not guilty and Jus
tice Goff set September 11 as the date
of trial.
Xfter the trial date had been set
and Becker remanded to the Tombs,
x conference was held between Justice
Goff. District Attorney Whitman and
Attorney Mclntyre. By mutual con
sent. the defense was given one mole
day to prepare for trial and the date
of trial changed to September 12
A motion was made by Beckers
counsel for an inspection of the grand
jury minutes and to dismiss the In
dictment against Ihe prisoner for mur
der. This will he heard by Justice
Goff immediately before the trial on
Reptember 12.
Mclntyre characterized the sitting
of Reckers trial at such an early date
as a great injustice and as a pro
cedure unheard of In the annals of
criminal legal jurisprudence. Ho said
that an effort will be made to have
the trial postponed until later, when
Recker Is haled before Justice Goff on
September 12, as the defense’s case is
■ till In preparation and will not be
ready for presentation on the date set.
Whare 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 thia was being done
Attorneys John F. Mclntyre 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 be transferred from Judge Mul
oueen's part of the general sessions to
Justice Goff's court. The motion was
granted.

Distri t \ttormy Whitman returned
front Vermont, where he had rested
over Sunday, and immediately took up
his task of running down the assassins
and grafters. He received from his
assistant, A DeFord, an 82-page "in
formation'’ for filing before Justice
Goff, whom Governor Di* designated
to preside in the supreme court This
information went into the details of
the graft and afforded an Index of
w hat the distri t 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 ordered the assassination of
Herman Rosenthal to prevent the gam.
bier from exposing the protected vice.
Mr. Whitman’s attention was also
turned to the best time to begin John
Doc proceedings, in which Justice Goff
will sit as the committing magistrate
He and Justice Goff agree that the
John Doe investigation, which will
amount actually to a grand Jury pro
ceeding held in public, so far as Its
force and jurisdiction go. should be
handled very carefully at the outset
and no; started upon rashly
Mr Whitman's Idea based upon Mr,
DeFord » recommendations, is that a
• pecia! bureau should be organized In
the dimrict attorney's office to take
charge ot the John Doe proceedings
mass all the available evidence, sub
peua witnesses and work in close touch
with the grand Jury

“The tecords of typhoid fever in At

Dr Kennedy said that anti-typhoid
vaccination would hardly be made
compulsory, as Is the case with antl
smallpox vaccination, for some years.
But he said he was prepared to ad
minister tlie treatment free to all who
desired it. He has been prepared to
■.rive the treatment for some weeks, but
only recently have the 'people begun to

The records of the army', practically'
all the members of which have been

the treatment be administered after
typhoid fever has been contracted. To

It is further statid th it the “gov

Despite th. staler,lent, offieialdcHji
generally is of the belief that Great

The semi-official announcement that ;
Mr Robeeveft will come' to Gecfrgia be
fore a great while to harangue tne people »
with respect 1 to the aims and objects of
the bull moose party and his own par
ticular connection therewith, has set
many hearts a-riuater politically.
If he should come, it may as well be ■
accepted right off the reel as true that
he will cut a spectacular swath from
Rabun Gap to Tybee light, and that when
he shall nave departed, there will linger
not one little doubt that he has been ‘in
our midst!”
One may accept as final Ute forecast
of so fexcellent a prophet as Mr. George
Harvey, ff one so elects, and conclude
that Mr Roosevelt, with all his engaging
md enticing qualffications, still has “no
chahce to win.’’
One May accept such a forecast, if one
so in< lines, to be sure—but if Mr. Roose
velt comes and lingers a while in Geor

not thousands of Georgians will not ac
