NEW YORK, October 12.— Long hours of cross-examination by supperless lawyers before a supperless court and jury failed tonight to make “Bald Jack” Rose vary his story of the part he played and the part he says Police Lieut. Becker played in the murder of Herman Rosen- thal, the gambler. . “Becker told me,” he said, “that he wanted Rosenthal murdered, shot, croaked or dynamited. At his bidding, I got the gunmen to kill Rosenthal. I hid after the murder. I saw Becker that morn- ing and later talked with him over the telephone. I paid the gunmen $1,000 for Becker and told them he said not to worry, but to lay low. “I gave myself up and became state’s witness because Becker deserted me like a dirty dog, and was getting ready to throw me to the.wolves.” McIntyre Near Collapse. Justice Goff convened the afternoon session of court at 2:15 o'clock. Shortly before 9 o'clock tonight he declared it adjourned until, Monday morning, after John F. Mcintyre, Becker's lawyer, pro- tested he was on the verge of collapse. Court, jury, counsel, witnesses and the aceused had been without food since noon luncheon. Justice Goff, white-haired and of venerable appearance, seemed the least fatigued of all in the courtroom. “I warned you, :iohn F.

I meant it.” Justice Goff Relentless. “I am on the verge of collaps ed Mr. McIntyre. “Proceed with the case,” was Justice Goff's reply. Not for three hours there- after was court adjourned. Becker, cool and stoical, leaned on the table at which he sat, his chin in his hand, his elbow on the table, during the long cross-examination. Twenty feet back, in the first row of seats usually reserved for spectators, sat his wife. Her eyes were for her husband, rather than the court. Once, only once, he glanced back at her and smiled.+ ‘Bald Jack” Rose, thick-lipped, wide- eared and without a hair on his gli: tening head, was unruffied by the or- deal.

TEXT OF THE POWERS’ NOTE Italy Grants the Porte Three Days to Decide Question of Peace or War. PODGORITZA, Montenegro, October 12. —After an engagement lasting until mid- day the Montenegrins broke through the Turkish ranks near Tushi and Invested the town, which is completely cut off from Scutari. The Montenegrin army has been fight- ing for four days along the whole front, penetrating the Turkish territory slowly, owing to the many fortifications. The Turks have burned several Malissori vil- lages. Many wounded Turks brought to Podgoritza. Details of the storming of Detchitch mountain by Montenegrin troops show the Montenegrins lost 120 killed and 400 wounded. Official dispatches from the southern army say the Turks attempted to take the counter offensive, but were driven ack. Enter Sanjak of Novipazar. CONSTANTINOPLE, October 12.—Mon- tenegrin forces have crossed the border into the sanjak of Novipazar and are now attacking Sienitza, according to official information received by the porte today. Sienitza is a town close to the Servian frontier. The text of the collective note handed by the representatives of the powers to the Ottoman government Thursday is as follows: “The understigned ambassadors of Aus- tria-Hungary, Great Britain, France, Russia and Germany have been instruct- ed by their respective governments to inform the sublime porte that the five powers take note of the intention of Turkey, publicly announced, to introduce reforms, and they will immediately dis- cuss with the porte, in the spirit of article XXIII of the treaty of Berlin, and the law of 1880, the reform requested in the administration of European Turkey, and the measure capable of assuring their realization in the interest of the popu- lations, it being understood that the re- forms will not affect the territorial in- tegrity of the Ottoman empire.” Three Days’ Grace. PARIS, October 12—Italy tonight granted Turkey three days’ grace to de- cide whether it shall be peace or a con- tinvance of the war. If by Tuesday evening thé Turkish government is not ‘prepared to sign the protocol the Ita- Dap feet will immediately be despatched to strike a blow at a more vital part of the Ottoman empire than has yet been Teached. ‘The threatened rupture ‘of the negotis- tions between the Italian and Turkish representatives at Ouchy has occupied the diplomats of Burope today almoet to the exclusion of the Balkan imbroglio. The powers have concentrated their ef- forts to prevent Turkey from placing in the hands of the Balkan federation such a trump card as would be the failure of the pourparlers, which have been a large factor in causing the hesitation of Bul- aria, Greece and Servia to declare war. It is pointed out that while Italy is still fighting the Mussulmans the position of the Balkan states is so enormously strengthened that the powers feel that nothing could restrain them, but with Turkey free from the Italian’ danger an entirely now perspective is created. The Greek ‘fleet then would be practically put out of action and large contingents of the Greek army would be tied up guard- ing the coasts, while Turkey would be able without restriction to move hordes of the finest fighting men from Asia Minor against the Balkan invaders. Seconding Powers’ Efforts. Italy, in granting a fresh delay in the peace settlement, is seconding the efforts of the powers. The Italian am- bassador, Signor Titton!, had no fewer than three conferences today with M. Poincare, the French premier. Italy's desire for peace 1s explained on the ground that she fears complications might follow an attack by her on a port in European waters or in the vi- cinity of these waters. ‘The session of the cabinet today was entirely devoted to the external political situation and France's attitude in con- nection with developments in the war in the near east. According to the Tempe, should a rup- ture come, Italy would indirectly support the Balkan coalition by landing a strong force in Greece to co-operate with the Hellenic army, or make a naval demon- stration off the coast of Asia Minor. SHIP SINKS IN LAKE ERIE. Members of Crew Reach Shore in Boat After Fight With Waves. ERIE, Pa., October 12.—The steamer 8. K. Martin of Benton Harbor, Mich., bound from Buffalo to Erie, sank in Lake Erie this afternoon about a mile off ‘Harbor creek. Capt. W. J. Jock and his crew of ten reached shore in a small boat, after a two-hour fight with glant waves that time and again threatened to swamp their frail craft. The big freighter sprang a leak early this afternoon and water poured in so rapidly that Capt. Jock realized the ves- sel was deomed. With all available hands at the pumps, the steamer was rushed toward land, but, when a mile off shore; the Martin began to settle. The crew, including the stewardess, were ordered into a small boat. Although a high sea was running they managed to reach shore, nearly exhausted. Shortly after the small boat had left her side, the Martin sank with her cargo of coal. She was 164 feet over all and was owned by W. J. Johnson. KILLS GIRL; SHOOTS SELF. Young Woman Slain as She Leaves Place of Employment. PHILADELPHIA, October 12.—In sight of hundreds of girls who had just left their places of employment, Ethel Hayes, nineteen years old, was shot and killed on the street here today by William Hayes, her foster father. The latter then shot himself and is in a critical condition at a hospital. Hayes waited for thegir! and when she left a mill, where she was employed, with a number of companions, approached her and began shooting. The police say they believe Hayes shot the girl because she left his home and went have been to a boarding house. The girl, it is sald by the police, told Mrs. Hayes that she oo oo e gir n ané@ his wife when she was quite young. .

DETROIT, Mich., October 12.—Up here, where the third-termer has but recently been pawing up the ground, the politi- clans are trying to estimate which will Prove to be more'significant in this cam- paign, the enthusiastic popular demon- stration in favor of Roosevelt or the deep, silent undercurrent of support of Taft by the business element, Unquestionably Roosevelt will receive a tremendous vote in Michigan. That fact is conceded by democrats and regular republicans alike. There can be no doubt as to the enthusiasm for Roosevelt, as demonstrated by his reception on this his second trip into the Wolverine state. Enormous crowds have turned out to meet him at every point. The attendance upon his meetings has far exceeded that of any of the republican gatherings. Also Crowded to Hear Bryan. To be sure, no such striking figure as Theodore Roosevelt has appeared in be- half of the republicans. Likewise it is true that no one can estimate what pro- Porticn of his audiences represented curiosity or prospective votes. It will be recalled that in all of Bryan's cam- paigns, commencing with 1896 and con- tinuing to the present day, the outpour- ing of the public upon occasions when he was to speak was phenomenal. If ail of his auditors had been democratic voters h: would have been elected in 1896 and every succeeding four years. People Jammed the Hall. When Roosévelt spoke in this city 5,000 people jammed the hall, and other thousands ‘outside clamored for admis- sion. The next day Harlan and Bede, the Roosevelt “‘trailers,"” assembied. 426 peo- ple in the same hall. At Bay City 6,000 swarmed into the armory. The town re- sembled a Fourth of July celebration, with red fire and roman candle accom- paniment. At Saginaw 7,000 were inside and 2,000 outside the auditorium; and so it has gone throughout the state. Roosevelt's methods in Michigan were somewhat different from those he uses in other states. He realized that here the fight is between himself and Taft. He said very little about Wilson. He re- frained consistently from attacking Taft. He was trying to win votes from the republican party, and carefully concealed the “big stick. Attacks by Harlan and Bede. In violent contrast to this policy was the course followed by Harlan and Bede. They devoted their entire attention to attacking Roosevelt personally. Harlan was especially bitter. He held him up to scorn and ridicule, taunted him with his San Juan record, tied him up with the harvester trust and the big corporations, criticised him for his action in the Ten- nessee Coal and Iron deal, and otherwise rode over him roughshod. Enraged Crowd Hissed Him. So harsh was he at* Saginaw that the crowd became enraged and hissed him, and it was said that he made votes for Roosevelt, because in the very same hall the day before Roosevelt had not men- tioned Taft's name. Roosevelt does not hesitate to go after Harlan and Bede, however, and hits back vigorously. He accuses Harlan of being affillated with Lorimer, and charges Bede with being against the conservation pol- cy. Roosevelt's usual talk, however, in this state is more in the nature of an essay ‘on economic policies. Sample of Roosevelt Talk. Here 1s a sample of it: “I have come here today in what it really your fight. And, friends, it seems to me that this movement in its origin, its growth, its principles, typifies exactly what this kind of movement should al- ways be. Most emphatically it has sprung from the people themselves. The move- ment was due, not to the leadership of any one man. ‘It was due to the instinc- tive feeling of the mass of the people that the time had come when they must take more share in govern! themselves and when they intended to have a more substantial share of economical justice than had hitherto obtained.

NEW YORK, October 12.—Governor Woodrow Wilson, democratic presidential nominee, and William Gulzer, democratic candidate for governor of the state of New York, appeared in public together here tonight for the first time since the latter was nominated at Syracuse. They both attended a banquet of the Knights of Columbus and were given an enthus- lastic ovation. The governor made a brief speech extolling the character of Columbus. “My interest in politics in this year of grace—for it promises to be a year of grace,” added the governor amid great applause—‘is that there is some prospect that we shall end the misun- derstandings in America, that we shall bring classes together, bring about common counsel and cease fruitless contests of interests with interests.” | The governor later attended a banquet of the Democratic Association of French and Canadians of Greater New York. Prediction as to Canada. “I have no predictions to make about Canada,” said the governor at this func- tion, “except this very delightful predic- tion that Canada and the United States will more and more thoroughly under- stand one another, and like one another as the years go by. We have common ideals, we have common hope, we have common views, and for the time being Canada has a better banking and cur- rency system than the United States. The governor praised “‘the political dom.and economic foresight of those who guide the affairs of Canada, so that we are on a basis of mutual and general re- spect for one another The governor returned to his home at Princeton, N.

CHICAGO, October 12.—John and Hugh O'Donohue, brothers, who arrived in this country from Ireland three weeks ago, jumped out of a third-story window early today and ran a mile in their under- clothes before they considered it safe to stop. They had been confronted by a holdup man with a revolver in their lodging at 135 North Ada street. Two policemen who saw the brothers jump from the window captured a man supposed to be the robber. He had in his pockets considerable English currency, which the brothers identified as theirs. A larger sum that was hidden under a mat- tress was untouched. ‘The O'Donohues were taken to the county hospital to have their briuses at- tended to. JUDGE FINED FOR CONTEMPT.

Polland’s body was severed just above the hips. His mother went to the hospital and talked ‘with him before he died.

OMAHA, Neb., October 12—A “run” on the postal savings bank at South Omaha today by 100 Greeks made it necessary for that institution to call on the Treasury at Washington for funds, The Greeks, who have been heavy de- positors, withdrew their. money in or- der to start to the aid of their coun- try in the event of war with Turkey. ‘An emergency fund is kept in Wash- ington to meet such demands, but this is sald to be the first time a call has been made against it to meet with- drawals.

MANY FROM FOREIGN LANDS Committee of Washington Men Re- ceives Them at Union Station. PROGRAM OF ENTERTAINMENT Sightseeing Excursions and Recep- tion at Pan-American Union Building in Schedule. Expressing enthustastic admiration of the United States and appreciation of the reception which they have been accord- ed in this country, the delegates to the fifth International Congress of Cham- bers of Commerce, who are now tour- ing the country, reached. here last even- ing and were given a cordial greeting by a special committee of the Washington Chamber of Commerce. The delegates, | who represent nearly every civilized country. of the world, were conveyed in automobiles to their hotels immediately, and were soon apparently feeling “at home” in the National Capital. Nearly 400 strong, the party came in two special trains from Pittsburgh, Fa, D. J. Kaufman, chairman of the local committee in charge of the entertainment of the visitors, and Secretary Thomas Grant of the Chamber of Commerce met the delegates in Pittsburgh and made the trip to this city with them. Mr. Kaufman said last night that many of the visitors |had expressed to him their great pleasure in the trip which the city of Boston nas provided for them. The headquarters of the party is at the Raleigh Hotel, though many of the guests are being cared for at the Conti- nental Hotel and also at Congress Hail. The lobbies of these hostelries last night had the appearance of a congress of all nations. Blond-headed men of northern Europe, the dark and lithe men of the Latin countries, and representatives of the orient mingled in groups about the hotels. They have become well acquaint- ed during their stay in this country. Plans for Today. There was no set entertainment last night for the great majority of the dele- gates, and they welcomed the news of a night’s holiday from banqueting and. re- ceptions. Today the members of the charge and will escort the visitors on them to see some of the public buildings today, also.

The Brazilian ambassador, Domicio da Gama, and many others prominent in diplomatic and official life attended the dinner. Every effort will be made to make the visit of the foreigners to the National Capital the climax of their trip. Tomor- row they will be taken to Mount Vernon, and on their steamer luncheon will be served, and tomorrow night they will be the guests of honor at a big reception which will be given by the Washington Chamber of Commerce and Director John Barrett of the Pan-American Union in the Pan-American building. Weather permitting, the guests will be received on the terraces of the building, and the scene promises to be one of the most picturesque ever staged at an entertain- ment in this city. The delegates will leave here for Philadelphia at 9:30 o'clock ‘Tuesday morning. Thursday they will go to New York, where the party will dis- perse, the delegates returning to their native lands. Committee in Charge. Tbe committee on tour, which had charge of the trip, consists of John H. Fahey, chairman; H. H. Davenport, James A. McKibben, Robert J.

In this connection the local committee has announced that through an oversight the invitations to the reception tomorrow night at the Pan-American Union were sent out addressed merely to the men in this city, whereas they should have been addressed to their wives and daughters, also. The delegates freely discuss their im- pressions of the United States, and as freely give information relating to their own lands. “For the native of India who desires to become a practicing physician American medical colleges offer the best advantages. Students of electricity and mechanical en- gineering also find that the best educa- tional facilities are offered in this coun- try.” Such was the statement last night of Dr. Shiv Nath Kapoor, a native of Bun- jab, Gujranwala district, Hasizabad, north India, a member of the party of foreigners. “For the native of India who wishes to be appointed to the medical service of the Indian army, the English medical colleges are best suited to bis needs. In England however, a medical student is not given the great hospital advantages that are offered in the United States.” Corrects Erroneous Impression. Dr. Kapoor made it a point to correct the impression which, he said, Americans have that natives of India are best fitted for cooks. The natives of India who are cooks, he said, are the Portuguese In- dians or Goanes Indians, and are not the British subjects. “It is true that the Portuguese Indians are good cooks,” said Dr. Kapoor. “In fact they are the best cooks in. the world. Even in- British India they are the cooks in practically every family of means. “The true Indians are an intelligent race and learn quickly. Vast numbers of them are becoming doctors, pharmacists, skilled" mechanics, engineets and elec- trictans. In the United Stafes there are many Indian students enrolled in the va- rious colleges and universities. “The students from my country with whom I have conversed since arriving in America are of the belief that India should be freed from British rule. They are wrong in this belief. British rule is best sulted for India. The people of the country are Not in a position to govern themselves. Freedom Would Be Calamity. “England has done much for India and the people are much better off as the result. The freeing of India from British rule would be a great calamity.” vr.

BOSTON, Mass., October 12.—Boston’s chance for the world’s championship title was almost made certain today when the Red Sox scored their third victory of the series by a score of 2 to 1. All that re- mains to be accomplished to win the honor is for the American League champs to capture one of the next three games, and that should not prove a difficult mat- Today's game, like the ones that preceded it, w: a hard-fought, interest- sightseeing automobile tours about the/ing battle in which a single run decided city. Arrangements have been made for|the result. The game furnished a surprise in Be- dient, the most youthful of Stahi's Pitchers, who gave an exhibition which ‘Was not equaled by any of the twirlers and chairman Of! who have worked in the series. It was because of Bedient’s remarkable pitching t rubber exposition in New Y: was} that the victory was-made possible. He Seat aber mean ice i ieee ciel ast allowed but four hits and a single run and there never was an instant when he was not absolutely master of the situa- tion. ‘Opposed to Bedient was the remarkable Mathewson. He lost his game, but he gave an exhibition which will go down in the annals of base ball history as one of the greatest of the world’s series con- tests. An error was directly responsible for the run which proved sufficient to win. Early in the game Mathewson's ef- fectiveness was lacking. He was really nit hard and yet, had he been given the support that a pitcher can demand from his teammates, the end of the ninth would have found the two champs tied, with one run apiece. Mathewson Warms Up. Once Mathewson got thoroughly warm- ed up, however, he gave an exhibition of the art of twirling that has had few equals. During the last six innings he did not allow a man to reach first base. He mowed the Sox down in order every round and was never in danger of being scored on. But the damage had all been done in the third round, when two three- bagzers followed in rapid succession, after which came an error by Doyle, which made the second run possible, and that run was the one that decided the games, yet he annexed neither and all Because his support faltered. ‘The grent- est veteran of them all, who was hailed as having reached that stage of his ca- reer where little was to be expected of him, really has pitched marvelous ball in the series, and his performance toda) with but two days’ rest to build up on, was the most remarkable of the two. Yet it did not compare with the splendid per- formance of Bedient. ‘The youngster, who was not figured on as taking part in the series, and broke into the game only because of circum- stances which warranted giving him @ trial, pitched an almost perfect game of ball.’ None of the Sox pitchers proved as troublesome to the Giants as he did. No pitcher could h@ve been more effective. He had terrific speed, a deceptive curve ball, fair control, and, above all, a cool- ness that was Uncanny and nerves of steel.

Yerkes played it safe, and made no effort to score from third, but when the ball passed through Doyle's legs, he scampered over the plate. Speaker died trying to reach second, Murray thro’ him out, but the next two batters, and s offered chances for the infield, on which Yerkes could not possibly have scored, so that Doyle's misplay was really « tragedy. Boston did not score thereafter, f& Mathewson settled down and mowee them down like so many pigmies. New York scored but once, and really never ————_e
