Oct 12.--Jack Rose to day began histestimony at the trial of Police Lieutenant Becker, charged with the murder of Rosenthal. Rose salii he had Known Rosenthal 20 years and Becker for several years. Becker eyed him Intently. "Did' you ever have business rela tions with Becker?" he was asked. "Yes, I collected money for him," Whs the reply. The defense objected but was over ruled. Rose told of the meeting of Rosenthal and Becker in the Elks club at a New Year's celebration. Mrs. Rosenthal was present Becker said to Mrs. Rosenthal, according to Rose, 'Now don't worry. Herman and I have a thorough understanding. He Is my friend, I am his friend and his troubles are over." . Rim said he met Becker again at the lutter's house and again at the Union Square hotel, where Becker re lated the details of an alleged partner ship In a gambling house with Rosen thal. He said Becker told him Rosen thal wanted him to Invest $5000 In the gambling house. Rose told him no cine ever made money In the gam bling business with Rosenthal. Becker didn't agree and proposed that Rose take a one-fourth Bhare In the estab lishment. "Becker took a $2500 chattel mort gage on Rosenthal's property and ar ranged for a "dummy" to hold the mortgage Becker asked me If I'd take chniHe,.'snd JwU . 'would,' the . witness earn. The witness said . he reported to . Becker on one occuslon that the house had made several thousand dollars. Becker told him to tell Rosenthal to r.end Becker five hundred. "Rosen thal snld he wouldn't because ;he had not had a square deal on the mortgage." "When I told Becker this he said just as soon as his attention was culled to the place he'd raid it and asked me to tell Rosenthal so,' said witness. . ' Why Decker Raided. Rosenthal's reply was "You tell Rocker ho can't raid the place unless he gets proper evidence and he can't get It because I know all his men and they can't get In. "So that's his attitude Is it," raid Becker, when Rose told him. "All right. I ll raid It" Rose said the next day Becker told him Waldo had called his attention to the place and ho would have to raid it. When this was told Rosen thal the latter said: "Tell Becker he can't bluff me." . Several days afterward Becker told Rose that frequent complaints were pouring In and to tell Rosenthal he'd have to stand for a raid. In a few days he could reopen the place. Ro senthal's reply to that was, "Tell "Becker he must think I'm crazy to stand for such a thing. It's my place and I'm going o handle It the wuy I think best". Becker told Rose he was going to raid the place within a week, iisked him not to tell Rosenthal. "I'm through with that fellow." he said. The house was raided. Ijiter Rosenthal complained to Becker that policemen were still stationed In front of the place. The next time he saw Meeker the accused told Rose Rosen thal had been calling him up. wanting to know what he was going to do about Indictments against the men ar rested In the ulace. Becker Mid he put Rosenthal off. Soon after that Becker said Rosenthal began talking, around the corners that he was in partnership with Becker and was go ing tn "show him up." He said Waldo hemd the charges and had not be lleved them. "What do yoji want done with Rosenthal?" 'Rose said he asked Becker. "I want him murdered, shot, croak ed, dynamited, or anything. I want him put where I will never have to w"v about him again." 1 The first testimony Implicating Charles Becker in the murder of Her man Rosenthal was given at yester day's session of the trial of tht former police officer accused of Instigating the murder of the gambler. It m test! fled by Maurice Laihan, a hanger-on of the underworld, that Becker had said to Jack Rose about three weeks before the murder, "If that Ros . cnthal Is not croaked I will croak him myself."

The exhibitions were jnany and diversified and of fine quality, the premiums were liberal and the attendance was large. It is estimated that there were 15,000 paid admittances. The fair has had the effect of giving the people confidence In their counties and state. Their products have more than held their own with the foreign exhibitions.

The amount of the loan Is between $40,000,000 and $50,000,000. The "American group" of bankers the allied forces of the firm pf J. P. Morgan & Co., the National City bank, the First National bank and the firm of Kuhn, Loeb & Co, it is understood, has been asked to enter into negotia tions and has done so. Again as with the six power loan to China, this present Turkish loan is primarily of a political and Interna tlonal character. The state depart ment has entered into diplomatic ne gotiations and In concert with Euro pean powers has taken up the question of a large loan to Turkey through the allied International groups of bankers. t is believed that all the continental powers who were represented in the proposed Chinese loan of $300,000,000 are concerned In the present loan ne gotiatlons. Peace between Italy and Turkey is the first and primarily Important con dition of the loan to Turkey. The negotiations were entered into about two months ago, Ion;? before there existed signs of Immediate cause for the war that has just bee opened up in the Balkans. If Turkey expects to get this money peace in the Balkan! will be another strict condition. About the middle of the summer It became known In Wall1 street that New York bankers had been sounded as to a Turkish loan. Men who have large potential interests in Turkey said yesterday that it had been un derstood that the attitude of Ameri can bankers to a Turkish loan had been very favorable In the early part of the loan talk, and that these bank ers had taken little active interest in the loan. The Montenegrin situation, however, in the last few days has brought the loan question to a head and active ne gotiations are going on.
