I have met Rose two or three tim I met Becker when the Dollar John case came up. T advised Dollar John to wait until he had evidence and not to go talking about the streets. He ac- cepted my advise. Becker may have thought this was an evidence of my friendship for him. Of course, it was not. “I met Becker just befure Big Jack Zelig got into his last trouble. Rose wanted to know if I would be Zelig s counsel. I begged off, saying IT was going to Baltimore as an alternate and would not be back in time. Rose suid he would have the case postponed until I returned. To my surprise Zelig's case had gone over, But he never approached me again.” WOOL BILL NOW UP TO TAFT: PASSED BY THE HOUSE.| Conference Report on Tariff Re-| vision Measure Agreed to by — | Vote of 160 to 62, WASHINGTON, Aug. 3—The House | to-day agreed to the conference report Jon the Woo!
