Death threats have repeatedly been sent to "Bald Jack" Rose, "Brldgie" Weber and Harry Vallon, who confessed the al leged relations between the police and gamblers, and the three prison ers are in a state of panic over fears that their lives will be taken, declar ing the beli-f that they will be killed if carried through the streets to court. A wide search is being con ducted for Harry Horowitz and Lois Rozenzweig. Fifty thousand dollars, It is said, has been raised by police officers to defend Becker. The money is being collected, it is said, by the so-called "system" which, aside from the murder case, is to be Investigated by the! district attorney who believes there is a corrupt alli ance between the "system" and the gambling fraternity founded on graft and blackmail. In the legal proceedings which In cluded the withdrawal by Becker of his plea of "not guilty" to offer mo tions to invalidate the Indictment the prisoner was represented by three lawyers, one of whom mysteriously withdrew, while the others seemed Doubtful of their own status wjien tho proceedings were over. It was said that the lawyers were not satisfactory to collectors of the defense fund, who, tho district attorney heard, have prac tically engaged a prominent criminal lawyer to defend the lieutenant. John VV. Hart, who conducted the proceedings, after withdrawing his client's plea of "not guilty" made one motion to dismiss Ihe indictment on the ground that It was irregular and another to review the grand jury min utes and take evidence to show wheth er the ground for the indictment was sufficient. Judj,'c Muluucen refused to I I I argument on the motion and set the lease over until Wednesday. Hart in his application to inspect .the jury minutes held that the cvl ! dence produced was not legal In that ; It was testimony of accomplices In the alleged crime, namely "Jack" Rose, I "Brldgie" Weber, and Harry Vallon.

He denied that It was a young Jewish woman who was responsible for his change of faith. Several years ago Justice (Jaynor, now mayor, awarded a decree of divorce to Eleanor Perry.

The an swer of the International Harvester company to tile bill tiled by the Unit ed States under the Sherman anti trust law was filed In the United States District court at St. Paul yes terday. The answer denies specifically all charges of restraint of trade, monop oly and unfair business practices. It alleges that prior to the formation of the company In 1 902, the harvester business had been conducted in a wasteful manner, detrimental alike to manufacturers, .retail dealers and con sumers: than oiuy the two large man ufacturers had profitable businesses, while the business of others was de creasing and becoming hazardous and unprofitable. The International Har vester company, it is stated, was not an unlawful combination, hut a new company formed with ample capital in order to secure large economies in the agricultural Imprement business by producing 'more cheaply the raw materials, by enlarging facilities and correcting wasteful methods of dis tribution. by.: expanding the foreign trade and by better organized experi mental and Inspection departments. The company's commercial power has been used riot only for the bene fit of its stockholders, but also for the benefit of farmers and dealers and of its employes, and the taking on of new lines of manufacture, such as gasoline engines, tractors, auto wag ons, farm wagons, cream separators and manure spreaders, has resulted in the business as a whole being con ducted more economically and in fos tering Instead of restraining trade, it is asserted. ' Any monopoly trough patents is denied on the ground that the basic patents on binders and mowers ex pired prior to 1902. The detailed statement of earnings ami profits contained In the answer shows that .during the first eight years, the dividends paid averaged only 5.90 per cent on the fully paid capital stock and the total earnings only 7.15 per .cent, and that the main expansion Jf n ; the company's business has gaineikin the new lines of imple ments' ami lie: .oielgn tradf: which is incrca.ied from about 110,000,000 1903 to over $42,000,000 In 1911. it is held that the company has ac ve and increasing competition, ine umber of competitors In binders he In eight, with an aggregate capital of ver (100,000,000, and in other lines the competitors numbering from 14 n mowers to 1S1 in gasoline engines. The answer alleges the company pends developing and improving ma- hines annually $500,000. a cost which none of the old companies would have sustained. Tho wages and conditions of its em ployes, the answer says, have been Improved by Ihe harvester company to n extent impossible under trade con Itlons prior to 1902, wages having been increased fully 27 per cent. It is further declared that the com pany has given wiae puoncuy iu m usiness and that Blnce 190b tne com pany has filed with the bureau of cor porations its annual reports covering 11 its business operations and tnat it welcomes th" utmost publicity ana Dublic supervision and Is ready and Is desirous of remedying any defects or mismanagement in its business The answer avers that considering he capital invested and the hazard of the business, the company s earn mis have been reasonable and much smaller than Hie average proms oi manufacturing companies, that tne public and employes are receiving the benefits of the large economics and ncreased afficiency resulting from th organization and that It was organ ized without excessive capltaiizauo and without any purpose of creating monopoly or securing quick fortunes from stock sales or excessive earn Ings. It Is pointed out that since Its formation the company's business methods have secured fair treatmen to comoetltors and has tended to fos ter competition and not to destroy It. The t nswer Insists tnat tne unnoo States government having had for 1 vnar full knowledge of the com pany's organization and methods and their beneficial effect upon tne tran and public, ought not, after thousands of employes and others nave man large Investments In Us stock, ne per mltted In a court of equity to urge that the corporation Is Illegal should be destroyed.

After he had been welcomed by a crowd of several thousand persons and had made peech on the street in front of his hotel, he went lo his headquarters and took the hfelm. The Florida and Mississippi cases, hlch had not been ruled upon by the provisional national committee, were placed before him in detail and it developed that there was a sharp difference of opinion in the Roosevelt camp. A number of his northern supporters told him frankly that they nisapproveo oi ine poucy m all neHro delegates from the south, it was urged that such a position would cOBt the national progressive ticket the support of a large number of ne groes in northern states In which their strength was greatly needed Others of Colonel Roosevelt's sup porters felt that in fairness to the ne groes they should have some repre sentation from the south, but Colonel Roosevelt stood his ground. The Mississippi negroes were thrown out completely on the ground that the white delegates weie regularly elect ed. Colonel Roosevelt is said to have protested against the use of the word white delegates" in the call for the Mississippi state convention. In the Florida coses the contesting negro delegation was inrown out, The negroes protested loudly against this. They were Invited to attend the onvention as "supplemental dele gates" without votes, but declined to lo this, eventually going as "specta- ors." Then the national committee decided to bar also the white dele gates from Florida, there having been some question of Irregularity in call ing a white and negro convention sep arately. Colonel Roosevelt Insisted that there should be no negro delegates from the south In the convention and the na tlonal committee acquiesced In his view. The cases were taken before the convention committee on creden tials last night, but it was generally believed that the committee would follow the action of the national com mittee In adopting the colonel's view of the matter In this connection some of the pro -.Pive leader, nnentv charred that some oftheTnlt leaders in the repub- ii.. ...... 1, ..,.. i,..mh ih. nntt!i hroiieht be the southern nerro de e- gates and had defrayed the expenses of the negroes In coming to Chicago. fhis the negroes stoutly denied. t, b:s Resident Head of the Hull House to Speak in the Coliseum Wednesday.

MANY CHANGES NEEDED IN NATIONAL POLICY Would Extend Recall to Fed eral as Well as State Courts Social Reforms Advocated. Chirago, Aug. 6. Colonel Roose velt made his confession of faith to day in the national progressive con vention, striking into new ground and advocating measures which he said frankly would be denounced as either socialism or anarchy. The delegates listened to the speech with the un derstanding that they must either, co incide with his views or look else where for a nominee. He extended his advocacy of the recall of judicial de cisions to federal as well as Btate courts, he would make easier of amendment both national and state constitutions, control of the trusts, measures to secure social and indus trial justice to workers and woman's suffrage are also approved. Better pure food laws, the fortification of the Panama canal and free tolls for American vessels and the use of the canal machinery for developing the Mississippi river were advocated by the colonel. ;Mr. Roosevelt's speech strikes a keynote for his followers and sup porters in the new party. It lays down the plan of battle to be waged by the national progressive party. "The two old parties," he said, "are husks, with no real soul within either, divided on artificial lines, bossridden and privilege-controlled, each a Jum ble of Incongruous elements, and neither daring to speak out wisely and fearlessly what should be said on the vital issues of the day." As op posed to this incongruity and Insin cerity of action he asserted that the national progressive platform will be "a contract with the people," with definite and concrete provisions to be carried out if the people ratify the contract on election day as exactly and honestly "as if It were actually enforceable under the law." No Help from Old Purtv Ma. bine. Neither the republican nor the democratic platforms or managers show any adequate recognition of the mighty fact "that we are now in the midst of a great economic evolution" he said. This Irresistible movement for economic change and improve ment must be guided by "both com mon sense and the highest ethical standards," In order to prevent reas onable evolution from becoming dan gerous revolution. The democratic party, as is Indicated by its present record in congress, lacks the com mon sense, and the republican party, by Its record of stulen delegate, at the Chicago convention, lacks the ethical standards. "The men who presided over the Chicago and Bal timore conventions, and the great bosses who coitrolled the two con ventons Mr. Root and Mr. Parker, Mr. Barnes and Mr. Murphy, Mr. Penrose and Mr. Taggart, Mr. Gug genheim and Mr. Sullivan differ from one another, of course, on cer tain points, but these are the dlffer en -es which one corporation lawyer has with another corporation law yer when acting for different cor porations. They come together at once as against a common enemy when the dominion of both Is threat ened by the supremacy of the peo ple of the United States . If this country is really to go forward along path of social and c-nomlc jus tice, there must be a new party 01 nation-wide and non-sectlonal prin ciples, a party where the titular na tional chiefs and the real state leao ers shall be In genuine accord, a par ty in whose counsels the people shall supreme, a party that shall rep resent In the nation and the several states alike the sane cause, the cause of human rights and of governmental efficiency." The reassertlon of the stater rights doctrine of the demo cratic party cripples and forecloies any real or genuine relief to the peo ple. It reduces their promises to hopeless and empty phrases. The mis sion and cplrlt of this progressive movement will thrill the republic from end to end. Right of the People to Rule. "The actions of the Chicago con vention, and to only less degree of the Baltimore convention have shown In striking fsshlon how little the peo ple do rule under our present con ditions." In order to assure this pop ular rule Mr. Roosevelt urges the n of ldenUa, prlmarles popular election of senators, th. "hort ballot, an efficient corrupt prsoUott art uan.d 11M 0f the nl- native, referendum and recall. The recall should be applied to adminis trative officers'. Mr. Roosevelt asserts to that the adoption of these new meth- ods of political administration Is ne antagonistic to representative gov ernment "All I desire to dn by sscui Ing more direct control of the go ernmental agents and represent- tlvi of the people '- to give the peop o th chance to make their repreeentallvi really represent government - tlve Instead of (Continued on
