BECKER DELAYS TRIAL: LAWVERS MAY BATTLE FOR CHANGE OF VENUE Whitman Blocks Counsel’s Effort ta, Get Grand Jury Evidence and Says Ten Witnesses Back In- formers’ Confessions. “MORE FOR DOWNTOWN” CONSTANT CRY, SAYS ROSE. Confessed Graft Collector and Murder Accomplice Gives List of Gam- blers He Says Paid Monthly. In answer to ‘ contention by the defense of Lieut. Charles Becker that the indictment charging Becker with murder Is illegal in that it is |based solely on the testimony of accomplices, District-Attorney Whjtman 3: |announced to-day in the Court of General Sessions that he had the cor. roborative evidence of at least ten witnesses not connected In any way with the crime. This announcement was made in the course of argu- ments before Judge Mulqueen on motions to dismiss the indictment and for permission to inspect the minutes of the Grand Jury. The tactics of Becker's counsel appear to forecast a fight for delay. In case the District-Attorney should try to force an early trial of the ac- cused police lieutenant it is likely that his counsel will ask for a change of venue on the grotind that Becker could not be tried fairly in this clty because of the state of the public mind toward him and the police au- thorities generally. STORY OF $100,000 FEE DAZES M’INTYR: With national and State political campaigns approaching and with the political fortunes of certain of the public officers concerned in the Rosenthal case closely associated with those campaigns, it is considered the part of legal wisdom for Becker's lawyers to put off the trial as tong as possible. All but three of the alleged principals in the murder “are in jail. Those at large are “Lefty Louie,” “Gyp the Blood” and Sem Schepps. It was reported to-day that John F. McIntyre, counsel in chief for. Becker, received a cash retainer of $25,000 when he was taken into the case yesterday, and is to get $100,000 if he acquits the defendant. Mr. McIntyre was in a dazed condition for a couple of hours after this story was repeated to him, but refused to discuss his fee. It will probably be a week before Beoker is arraigned for pleating, If his attorneys are successful in having the indictment dismissed it will im necessary for the District-Attorney to get the Grand Jury to find « ly |seding Indictment John F. McIntyre, Becker's newly retained chief counsel, did not appear. in the proceedings before Judge Mulqueen, Becker was represented by John W. Hart, Lloyd Stryker and George Whiteside. Mr, Hart devoted most of his argument to @ motion to dismiss the indictment, He based his motion largely on the contention that the indictment charging Becker with instiga- ting the murder of Herman Rosenthal was signed by a Grand Juror who had not heard all the testimony against Becker, This juror is Grorge Pennell. DECLARES JUROR DID NOT HEAR EVIDENCE. Mr. Pennell, Mr. Hart said—and submitted an aMdavit in support of his statement—was not present in the Grand Jury room on July 17, when Al- |bert KR, Lesinsky and Robert H. Hibbard, lawyers, testified to facts con- nected with the loan of $1,500 alleged to have been made to Rosenthal by Becker, Neither was Mr, Pennell present, Mr, Hart said, on July 18, July 19 and July 26, when other testimony was given in the Becker case, But, Mr. Hart alleged, Mr. Pennell, according to a certified copy of the attendance of Grand Jurors, was present on July 29, when the indictment Jagainst Becker was found, and voted for the indictment, although he had not heard all the testimony, ‘This, tn Itself, Mr, Hart contended, was enough to annul the Indictment Furthermore, Mr, Hart claimed, the Grand Jury was not properly sembled for the night session on July 29, when the indictment Against Becker Was found. He asked for an order of the Court permitting him to ‘take tho testimony of Edward Carroll, Clerk of the Court, the District-At- torney, his assistants and clerks, members of the Grand Jury, and others |who may have knowledge of the failure alleged by the defense to notity Grand Jurors to appear at the night session, Mr. Hart admitted that six- |teen jurors were present at that session, but questioned the right of Pennell t /to take part in finding the Indictment. The District-Attorney was not ready to formally reply to Mr. Hart's ‘argument. Judgo Mulqueen asked for briefs on both aldes, and Mr. Stryker then made an argument on the motion for permission to inspect the min- utes of the Grand Jury Quoting Judge Crain of the Court of General Sessions, Mr. Stryker ad- jon that before an Indictment can be found the Grand Jury must bave before {t a prima facie case agalnst the defendant. Further {quoting Judge Crain, Mr, Stryker showed that, Aporting to the ruling of vanced the prope
