When one left off the other began. Rose got a letter from the District Attorney one day and after he had read it he came to me and said, 'Jack, the Dis trict Attorney writes me that he wants to know if you are going to corrobo rate us. He says if you do, it will be all right; If you don't you'll be in dieted. Promise of Money Made. "Webber said to me.

If you do that, you'll get out, like we will, after the trlatT If you don't, you'll be indicted and spend six months in Jail.' Once Webber said to me, 'Jack, for God's sake say- you saw Becker, as we will testify. If you want money, we will give you 11000, and if 'not, when you get out, we'll go into the hotel business. I'll put in 125,000 and we will divide the profits even. All you have to do is to lie for us. u you lie, it's all right; if you don't you'll go to JaiL' " To all these importunities Sullivan said he ipDlied that he would spend six years' in. Jail if necessary rather than swear a man s life away. PUrt Forced oa Stand.

Mr. Mclntyre refused to ex amine PUtt and again the District At torney read into the records evidence against the state's case. "Jack Rose told me," Plltt testified, that Becker didn't have anything to do with the murder. He said, 'I swear to you on my mother's grave that Becker didn't have anything to do with this. He is innocent, but Ive been" talking too much, and I ve got to testify against him.' " Tomorrow will be devoted to sura mins: up. Justice Goff will charge the Jury Thursday morning. William Shapiro, driver and part owner of the gray murder car which carried the gunmen to the Metropole and in which they made their escape after shooting. Rosenthal, testified In rebuttal. He added nothing- to pub lished versions of his story, except his statement that SO or 85 seconds elapsed after the shooting before he was able to start his car with the gunmen inside in flight. Becker Himself not Called. What is said to have been an 11th hour change of mind on the part of Mr. Mclntyre kept Becker from the witness stand. "I didn't put Becker on the stand, ' Mr. Mclntyre said, "simply because I did not care to dignify the opinion that the charge of murder had been cor roborated by credible, witnesses. The law says that there can be no eon vlnction on the testimony of accom plices without corroboration. To have put Becker on the stand would have appeared to be an acknowledgment that the testimony of Hallen and Lu ban amounted to credible testimony; whereas it appeared before the Jury that Hallen had served 12 years in state's prison and Luban was brought in shackles from the New Jersey state prison into the courtroom," Becker said: "I wanted to go on the stand, but my counsel advised against it.
