In the carriage were Mrs. Becker, John Becker, Mra. John! Becker\and Charley Shephard, one of Becker's raiders. Becker smiled toward hia wife. A handkerchief covered her face. The carriage drove rupidiy to the prison and Jta occupants hurried in- aide to Warden Kennedy's private of- fice. Becker came along in a few min- utes, a @reat throng, passing and re- passing in front of him, crowding the Sheriff and deputies off the sidewalk. Becker was met at the prison door by Warden Kennedy, formerly a New York policeman and famtilarly known have @ chance to reciprocate,” said Becker with a aniile. The Sheriff then turned the death warrant over to keep- er of the Guard Carroll, who read it and gave the Sherif a receipt for the prisoner. “He'll treat you alt right, Charley,” aid one of the deputies, leaving and nodding teward Connaughtor I know that, old man," replied Becker. “I'm sorry.” began Keeper Connaugh- ton, wut Hecker Interrupted. “No one is more sorry than T am, gentlemen,” he sald. “We'll see that you are well taken cate of,” added the keaper.

His frame shook convulsively as he leaned over a chair and wept, The little group were left to themselves until the ex- Lieutenant, absolute master of himeelf, reappeared in the prison garb. Here the rigors of the law caused « heartrending incident. Mra Hecker through a half open door saw her hus-| band in prison garb. His back was turned, “Charley, Charley," she shrieked. “Oh, please let me see him," she Pleaded. The attendants quickly closed the as “Big John.” There was no saluta tion, Mra, Becker didn't see her hus- band enter.

The sentencing of Becker occupied exactly e minutes and consisted only of a few grim forms of the law, the plea of the condemned man’s coun- sel for a reversal of the verdict and a new trial, the Court's whispered denial and the formal reading of the sentence. BIG MOB CLAMORS AT DOOR- WAY OF COURT. Justice Goff was in hid place promptly at 10.90. As he came in the courtroom the building was fairly shaking with the din of the mob that surged in the rotunda without. The courtroom itself was packed and jammed, with more than one hundred men standing in a wavering crush at the outer railing that stretches midway across the room. So great was the press that the court at- tendants were unable to close the doors until the Court gave a sharp commend for the ejection of every person present who could not find a seat. This order was not given until Clerk of the Court Penny had called out: “Charles Becker to the bar." Nor were the dozen uniformed court officers able to carry out Justice Goff's order until Becker came striding in with Ordinarily relatives of the condemned Prisoners are not allowed to see pris- oners more than once a week, but Mrs. Becker wil visit the prison each day, bringing clothes and delicacies to her ‘husband. er Unmoved fluttering of his Adam's apple, Becker absolutely no sign while his at- torney spoke. JUSTICE GOFF PRONOUNCES SENTENCE, He remained steady as iron and un- wavering until the moment Judge Gaft began reading the death sentence and the Deputy Sheriffs on either side of him slipped the handcuffs on his wrists, As the locks of the shagkles clicked his face suddenly flushed and he bit his lips, Justice Goff had sat with his head bowed over the bench while opposing counsel spoke thelr briet words, His denial of Mr. Hart's motions was in a Soarcely audible whisper. His cheeks and forehead were so pink and his small blue eyes so bright that his white har and beard glowed with peculiar bright- hess by contrast. There was a hush throughout the court-room, and even the clangor in the Street without seemed to die down as the Judge lifted his head from the big calf-bound book that lay open before him, looked squarely in the eyes of the man he was to sentence to death and then began reading. He started once, and then stopped den annoying sound that smote the stillness, In this brief, thunderin§ moment the color of the aged juriet's pink cheeks deepene: . but his voice was its usual gentle, plai tive self as he rea: “Charles Beck: the judgment of the Court is that you, Charles Becker, for the murder in the first a of one Herman Rosenthal, whereof you are convicted, be and hereby are sentenced to the pun- ishment of death. It is ordered four deputy sheriffe at his heels, He entered upon a shouting, plunging struggle, and the turmoil continued for several minutes after he had taken his Place at the rail to face the Judge and the formal words of the law condemn- ing him to death. ‘The policeman's nerve was heroic, He came down the court room with a heavy, confident swing, his chest thrown out and his chin up, He was clad in @ freshly pressed suit of blue serge and his face glowed and shone a if he had just come from under the hands of the barber. His eyes were as steady as steel discs as he looked about and bowed eolemnly to his one counsel Present—John W. Hart—end to James 'W. Osborne, who appeared to represent “Red Phil" Davidson at his arraign- ‘ment after the sentencing. District-Attorney Whitman, his aasist- ants, Frank Moss and Mr Rubin, sat with their backs to the rail and did not turn thelr heads toward Becker once during the brief seeston. There was a moment's colloquy between Justice Goff and Clerk Penney before Mr, Whitman arose.

"Charles Becker,” asked the clerk, “have you anything to say why the wemtence of the Court shall not be passed upon you?’ Becker glanced back at Penney and moved his head nervously, His lips sirred for & moment and he swallowed several times until Attorney Hart got Up and made his forma! motions for a reversal of the verdict and the granting 6 © new trial, Except for @ constant 4 that within ten days after this day's session of the Court the Sheriff of the County of New York deliver you, together with the warrant of this Court, to the agent and warden of the State Prison @ of New York at Sing you shall be kept in solitary confinement until the week beginning Monday, the 9th day of December, 1912, and upon @ome day, within the week pointed, t! den of the State Prison of the State of New York at Sing Sing is commanded to do execution: upon you, Charles Becker, in the mode and manner prescribed by the lawa of the State of New York."

Though Whitman has not yet definitely decided which of the four gunmen ac- cused of being the direct murderers of Herman Rosenthal he will put on trial first, there is every reason to believe that Whitey Jack Lewis will be the first to make the fight for his life.

At an executive session of the mem- bers of the Board of Estimate, held in the Mayor's office to-day, the figures for the final budget for the city for 1913 were fixed at $19,000,000. The tentative budget amounted to $193,000,000. This sum was reduced by cutting $3,000,000 from the total of the Board of Educa- tion estimate and eliminating all salary increases except those which are man- datory. The firemen and policemen of the lower grades also suffered their re- quests for increases being denied. The budget as now fixed does not exceed this year's budget, so that tirere will be ttle df any appreciable change in the tax rate.
