BECKER AND COUNSEL CLASH 0VER ACTION Police Officer Believes He Can Clear Himself If Permitted to Take Stand.

BY LEASED WIRE NEW YORK, May 20. A smashing blow was struck today at the defense in the trial of Ex-Police Lieutenant Charles Becker, when Justice Seabury refused to allow the introduction of an alleged confession made by one of the gunmen, "Dago Frank" Ciroficl, just before his execution in Sing Sing, in which he exonerated Becker from all blame for the. murder of Herman Rosenthal. Thomas F. Mclnenery, head keeper at Sing Sing, had just been called to the stand by the defense, when Judge Seabury halted the proceedings and demanded to know what Attorney Alanton expected to prove by Mclnenery. Mr. Manton replied: "The purpose of this witness' testimony is to tell of a dying statement of "Dago Frank,' which he made to this witness, to Father Cashin, his confessor, and to others, in which he exonerated Charles Becker from any blame for the murder of Herman Rosenthal." Enters Protest in Record. Counsel for Becker then had it officially recorded that he had called McInerney and had also summoned Warden Claneey. of Sing Siug prison, and the Rev. Father Cashin, chaplain of the same prison, to testify as to "Dago Frank's" dying confession. At the same time Manton moved that the testimony of "Bald Jack" Rose, Mrs. Herman Rosenthal and William Shapiro be stricken from the record upon the same grounds that Mcinerney's testimony was excluded, but it was immediately denied. An open clash between ox-Lieutenant Charles Becker, who is on trial for the murder of Herman Rosenthal, and Attornev Martin T. Manton. chief counsel for the defense, was threat ened today. Becker is insistent that lie be allowed to take the stand in his own defense and give the lie to his accusers. Manton is as firmly determined 10 keep Becker off the stand. Show6 His Anger. In a talk with his brother. John Becker, the defendant showed his anger over the announcement made j esterday that he would not testify. f want to testify." Becker told his brother. "It is always bad for a cop to lace a cross-examiner, because a lot of things he really was not respons ible for can he twisted against him. But I want to tell the jury the truth about home rats. 1 want to tell the jury that 1 worked lipid to keep some people off Rosenthal." Ihsjiile Becker's vrnth. M;uuon declared he had no intention of putting Becker on the stand. Wanton's New Move. Chief interest in the trial centered today in the efforts that Manton was e.tcr! to make to pet the alleged "confession'' of " Dago Frank." exonerating Becker, before the jury, and the cross-examination of Frederick Haw ley. a former n"W.- p;:pcr teporter, who contradicted Jack Rose's story that Becker met Rosenthal's slavers after the lntirder. At the fir.-t 1 rial Haw'ey was badly i tangled up by the state and District i Attornev Whitman expressed confi-j dence todav thai he would bo allt lo rope at. Distpct Attorney Whitman got Mawley "in bad" at the outset by establishing thai the wiinoss pave conflicting testimony Ht the first trial. "On the t?st trial." asked Whitman, "you testified that. Pecker was with you all during 'he time that he was at ihe Forty-seventh street station, and that he was not out of your sight for more than five minutes at any time?" "Yes." "Then I questioned you and you ad ml t ted that he w;s out of your sight for more than half an hour. Which is true?" "He was out of my sight, but not more than half an hour."

HARD TO SELECT CLARK CASE JURY

There was much difficulty in getting an unprejudiced jury to hear the case of the Clark brothers against the Citizens' State bank of Hagerstown, which opened today in circuit court. The jury probably will be sworn in tomorrow morning and the hearing started. In the complaint of the Clark brothers, John G. and Dan Clark, of Hagerstown, it is said an agent of the Columbus Securities company sold them a $5,000 block of stock In a new company, at that time under organization. The agent said the stock would pay eight per cent, and backed up his statement by accepting what Clark brothers now say was a non-negotiable note for the amount. Shortly after giving the note, the company attempted to dispose of it, but buyers could not be found, as the note was non-negotiable. However, a clause making it negotiable was inserted later, Clark brothers' claim, and it was sold for almost face value to the Citizens' State bank. The bank is now suing for collection of the principal of the note. 3. I ROACH OUTLINES SWIMMING HOURS Following is the summer- sw schedule for junior members "Y."

This photograph of the former New York gambler was taken in toe reporters' room of the criminal courts building, New York city, alter he had undergone a gruelling cross-examination at the hands of Mr. Manton, chief of counsel for the defense, at the second trial of former Police Lieutenant Charles Becker, charged with instigating the murder of Herman Rosenthal, who was supposed to have threatened to expose Becker as the leader of the graft ring in the police department. Rose insisted that Becker had ordered and participated in the planning of the crime, and that the former police official was in conference with Rose and some of his companions within two hours after the killing at a point two blocks distant from the scene of the crime, advising as to the best way to protect the gunmen who had fired the fatal shots.

DESCRIBES FACTORY An Indianapolis Newspaper Gives Watt Notice. The Watt fe Keelor factory of this city which is represented by Robert M. Henley and Frank N. Watt received the following notice from an Indianapolis newspaper: "There is considerable activity around the plant, which has a capacity of a casket every twelve mjnutes and a trade extending throughout the United States. "A person's first impression of a casket factory is that he don't want to look at all, but when he recovers hfs nerve it doesn't seem so grewsome after all. 'One sees young women making what they call shrouds but look more L.e dresses for a garden or a tango party. In fact, it looks like everything possible is being done to rob death of its horrors and give the burying public the benefit. The rest of the fac tory looked more like an upholstered furniture factory than anything else. "The trimming department, where mountings are kept, is a rival to the most tasty jewelry store !

Elimination trials for the next five-hundred-mile race on the Indianapolis motor speedway will start Monday, May 25, instead of the Wednesday following, as originally announced. The extra two days have been added to give some of the contestants time to readjust their machines for endurance, after they have been especially prepared for speed. Only the thirty fastest cars surviving, it is imperative that each entrant be accorded the utmost leeway. Contestants generally, save a few, such as Goux, Boillot, and Dawson, are worrying their heads off as to whether they will be able to qualify or not, including even such notables as De Palma and Barney Oldfield, whose cars, though remarkably consistent, others are not as fast as some of the Every effort will be made to impregnate machines of this class with the necessary dynamite to put them over, and afterward to restore them to their original condition.

The hopes of the French race drivers, Jules Goux, who won last year's Memorial day automobile race, and Boillot, who will Pilot Peugofs entry in this year's 500-mile classic, have been lowered during the last few days of practice, j because their tires have been showing poorly. Neither of the Frenchmen has been able to negotiate more than seven laps at high speed without tire change. The two foreigners are under contract to use English-made tires.
