FOR MIGHTY HUNTER Remarkable Demonstration at the| Chicago Convention Continues Un- til Delegates and Spectators in Galleries Are Nearly Exhausted. BY LINDSAY DENISON, Staff Correspondent of The Evening World. ENTION HALL, CHICAGO, Aug. 6.—In one of the most =) demonstrations ever seen in a political convention, Theodore = was this afternoon acclaimed the Chief Bull Moose of the} United States, For nearly sixty minutes the delegates and crowds in the galleries were in a state of wildest frenzy, cheering until they were nearly exhausted. The convention was late in coming to order. It had not been in session more than ten minutes when Chairman Beveridge announced | that a committee with Col. Roosevelt was in waiting. The delegates sprung to their feet and the audience started cheering as the form of Col. Roosevelt came into view on the rear of the stage. Ten thousand persons were waving red and white bandannas. Roosevelt, his face wreathed in smiles, bowed his acknowledgments as the crowd went frantic with enthusiasm. He bowed to friends in| the first row of delegates and then in turn faced each side of the hall, bowing low and waving a railroader’s salute to each of the galleries. The band was playing, at least it was going through the motions, but its music could not oe heard above the din of the shouts cf “We want Teddy! We want Teddy!" In the midst of the uproar an Okla- homa delegate tore the State standard from its place and started up the cen- tre aisle In a minute the alsies were CALLS FOR FUNK SOUND LIKE BUNK TO T. R.

Monster First of Kind Seen for | Years in New York Waters, Fishermen Say. After a twenty minute battle with knives, during which men were knocked down time after time, a twelve-foot Man-eat'ng shark, one of the few ever seen in New York waters, was killed thi morning by ten men on board the men haden fishing schooner Tansy Bitters of Seaport, N. J. The fishing schooner was using a “purse seine” a quarter of a mile off Sandy Hook Point when the big maa- eater became enmeshed. The monster struggled desperately and, to save seine from being torn to men hauled it on board, weighing three or four hundred pounds, flopping about mightily, When the man-eater was cleared from the seine on the deck of the schoonor Mt fell upon its back, its knife-iike tal! hing out. A sailor who etood clone caught the firs: blew full in the body, and was sent flying across the deck. Other sallors procured large sheath knives and attacked the shark, driving | their biades into its body to the hilt numberless times. All the while the big fish was threshing about with its tall, nearly all of the cen fishermen being knocked down at .ome time during the battle. The men were cautioned to keep away from the mouth of the man-eater, which was working fasi, its razor-like teeth shining as !t wriggied in an effort to reach its attackers. Before the animal finally was killed ithe fishing vessel Annie T., also of Seaport, drew alongs.de, and her crew Joined the men of the Tansy Bitters in attacking the shark with knives, After the fish was killed it was thrown on board the Annie T., which put into Seaport, while the crew of the Tansy Bitters cleaned up thelr deck and con- | tinued their fishing. Old-time fishermen declare they never have seen @ maneater before in these waters this variety of shark having {(¢ haunts much further south.

TWO SUSPECTS ARRESTED NEAR WORCESTER, MASS. Becker Retains McIntyre as Chief Counsel, and Lawyer Denies $50,- 000 Defense Fund Exists. Following the circulation of a report that “Jack” Rose, his chief witness in the case of the People vs. Lieut. Charles Becker, had deserted him and would refuse to go into important detafls of the confession im- plicating Becker in police graft preceding the assassination of Herman Rosenthal, District-Attorney Whitman hurrled to the West Side Court Prison this afternoon to consult with Rose, “Bridge” Webber and Harry Vallon. The chief object of the District-Attorney’s visit was to proowe from Rose the promised list of gamblers who are alleged to have deliv. ered protection money to Becker through Rose. Positive declarations, circulated through the underworld and fn police circles, that Rose would not deliver such a Iist and would stand pat on the testimony he has already given, had reached the District-At- torney, Rose's friends om the outside say he believes he has done enough to save himself from extended imprisonment and is now seeking to for- tify himself with assurances of safety after he gets out of jail. BECHER RETAINS M’INTYRE AS CHIEF COUNSBL. While the District-Attorney was working with Rose to get additional evidence against Becker, the accused lieutenant straightened out the tangle that has been confusing his engagement of counsel for the de- fense. John F, Mcintyre was retained this afternoon to act as counsel, In a consultation with Becker, Beck- -jer’s wife and Becker’s brother in the Tombs, Mr. McIntyre accepted the retainer and arranged to take charge of the case, with John W. Hart, Becker’s original counsel, as his assistant. The arrangement was satis- factory to Mr. Hart, who is a young man and lacks the experience of the veteran Mclntyre. When the deal selecting McIntyre as the lawyer for the defense was concluded, Mrs. Becker, who had taken the major part in bringing it about, collapsed in the counsel chamber on the second floor of the Tombs. The harrassed policeman was deeply distressed when his wife, whose con- dition 1s particularly appealing to @ husband at this time, gave way to her emotions and physical distress, Dr, Maguire, the Tombs physician, was summoned and administered restoratives, after which Mrs, Becker was hurried to her home under the escort of her brother-in-law. “Mr. Hart and myself will be the only lawyers actively engaged in the nse of Lieut. Becker,” said Mr, McIntyre, when the negotiations had » concluded, “I am glad to have Mr, Hart with me. He {s a bright, jcapable young man, with a good knowledge of criminal procedure, “L think my connection with the case effectually disposes of the rumor that there was in the process of gathering a fund of $50,000 or more, to be ‘ available, for the expenses of Becker's defense, I was engaged by Becker and his family. No outsider had anything to do with it. There is no fund lfor the defense other than the resources of the Becker family, In the arraignment of Becker to-morrow I shall appear in an advisory capacity, iMr. Hart belng familiar with the case thus far.” |TWO SUSPECTS ARRESTED NEAR WORCESTER. | & despatch from Spencer, Mags., a town seventeen miles from Worcester |and about thirty-five miles from Springfield, announces the arrest there of ! two young men who answer to the descriptions of “Gyp the Blood” Horowitz and “Lefty Loule” Rosenberg, the missing two accused of the actual murder of Rosenthal, This nows ts Interesting in connection with the declaration of Aaron J. Levy, counsel for William Shaptro and Louis Libby, owners of the "ur that “Lefty” and “Gyp" have been biding in the vicinity of Worcester, ‘The two prisoners at Spencer are held in Jall pending the ar- rival of New York officers, The five Rosenthal murder prisoners {n the Tombs were all arraigned r car, before Coroner Feinberg, sitting a8 a Magistrate this afternoon, They are “Whitey” Lewis and “Dago Frank” Clroficl, accused of the actual murder, and Louis Libby, William Shap!ro and Joseph Reich, alias “Jack Sullivan,” sed of complicity, At the request of the District-Attorney the ex- sminations {mn all five cases were adjourned until Aug. 19, by which date it is e ted that the tnquest, called for Aug. 15, wlll have been concluded, Ir ! to the arraignment of the five suspects, District-Attorney | Whitman uced a new witness who furnished an !mportant connecting Nok between Jack Rose and “Bridgie” Webber and the four actual assassins | subse quent to the crime, The new witness, whose name was not revealed, e eee ae
