: {urist accomplices cannot legally corroborate evidence against a per- ‘accused before a Grand Jury. So far as the information of the defense lends, Mr. Stryker said, the only evidenco given against Becker came ttires confessed accomplices, Webber, Rose and Vallon, If that is the a Mr. Stryker conténded, the indictment should be dismissed imme tely. TEN CORROBORATE CONFESSIONS. District-Attorney Whitman opposed the motion to allow Recker to fearn what evidence was given against him before the Grand Jury in con-| Rection with what he termed “the most dastardly and notorious crime in the history of the city.” But he offered to allow the court to inspect the Grand Jury minutes and rule on the legality of the indictment, “The minutes will show,” declared Mr. Whitman, “that at least ten witnesses corroborated the testimony of two of the accomplices.” It is expected that Judge Mulqueen will be ready with his ruling on the m@tions by next Monday. By agreement, the pleading of Becker was adjourned until after the ruling Is handed down. The Grand Jury is to take up consideration of the Rosenthal case again to-morrow with reference only to the murder. It {s necessary for the Dis- trict-Attorney to get some action from the Grand Jury in the cases of “Whitey” Lewis, “Dago Frank” Ciroficl, Louls Libby, William Shapiro and Jacob Reich, alias “Jack Sullivan,” who are held in the Tombs charged with either murder or complicity. Counsel for these prisoners are clamoring for their release unless something can be shown against them. About twenty witnesses have been subpoenaed to appear before the Grand Jury to-morrow. It {s expected that the first business of that body ‘will be to find indictments for murder against “Whitey” Lewis and “Dago Frank” if the evidence warrants. Morris Rose, a brother of Jack Rose, called on the District-Attorney today, bearing a supplemental confession written out by the bald-headed gambler in the west side prison last night and this morning. The docu- ment contains some names and information overlooked by Rose in his original manuscript. District-Attorney Whitman, after looking over the Rose statement, sent it to William J. Burns, the detective. Burns, Mr. Whitman said, is play-| ing @ lone nand in the investigation and the District-Attorney's office is thus far in .gnorance of what he {s finding out. Among the many rumors circulating about the Criminal Courts Bulld- ing to-day was one dealing with a detective who {s said to have been planted in an uptown cafe as a walter before the Rosenthal murder, This in Broadway, north of Forty-second street, {s said to have been fre- quented by police ofictals. The rumor has it that Mr. Whitman, through the Burns detective agency, put a spy in the cafe in the uniform éf a walter and that the apy thered a lot of important evidence by listening to the conversations of police official Mr. Whitman, when asked about the rumor, “If oniy a small part of what we are told about Burns is true, he must be the most wonderful detective that ever lived.” INSPECTOR HAYES DENIES STORY OF CELL THREATS.

Acting Cap- tain Price of the Bronx detectives, had been searching since Saturday for the policeman in plain clothes who 1s leged to have caused the death, through fright, of Walter Mayer, who dropped dead when he saw a revolver pointed at him, Simpson admitted that he had beaten another man, Wiillam Warren, with the butt of his revolver in the Presence of Mayer, but denied having threatened the latter. Early Saturdayytwo men entered the Stamford lunch room at No. 407 Third avenue and engaged in an argument with others on the merits of the Rosen- jthal case.
