GUNMEN'S BURIAL
i
Last Statement of ‘Dago Frank,’
Executed Gunman, of No Value
to Becker's Defense. :
.e R \
NEW YORK, April 14. Sensation
al developments are expecled soon in
connection with the plans for the sec
ond ®ial of ex-Lieutenant of Police
(‘harles Becker for the murder of
Herman Rosenthal. It was learned
to-day that Becker has quarreled
with his lawyer, Joseph A, Shay, and
that the attorney had threatened to
withdraw from the case. Iriends of
Becker predicted that William Trav
ers Jerome, former District Attorneyy
would be engaged to defend the for<
mer police official at his second trial.
While the funerals of three of tha
executed gunmen were being held on
the East Side to-day, public interest
centered in the probable effect of the
so-called “confession” made by “Dago
Frank” Cirofici before he was elec
trocuted. Lawyers generally deciared
(Yirofici’'s statement was of no valua
ag regards future developments.
Can Not Be Used Against Valion.
Aithough naming Harry Vallon as
one of the men who killed Rosenthal,
it can not be used against that deni
zen of the underworld. Though Ciro
fici said that, as far as he Kknew,
Becker had no connection with the
' murder, his stutement will not fizure
}‘in the defense of the ex-police lieu
‘llt-nzml, because it corroborates in the
' main the story told by *Bald Jack”
Rose, whose evidence convicted Beck
er;
The startling charge was made by
| Attorney Bernard H. Sandler, counsel
for Vallon, to-day that the Cirofici
,"\unl'vssimf' was part of a well-or
| ganized plot to shift the blame for
| Rosenthal's murder from Becker to
i\'..l!un, The attorney declared that
the gunman's statement was wrung
| from him by Warden James A. Clan-
My, of Sing Sing Prison. In this con
| nection, it was rumored that Warden
‘ii‘l:nu y, whose resignation has been in
| the hands of Superintendent of Pris
tons Riley for some time, will retire at

1 East Side Streets Thronged.
{ Great crowds thronged the grimy
| streets of the Fast Side to-day when
| the first rites were held over the bod
iiu,-q of “Dago Irank” Cirofici, “Lefty,
| Louie” Rosenberg and “Gyp the
| Blood” Horowitz. “Whitey Lewis"”
! Seidenschner was buried yesterday.
[ During the night thousands had
| tramped by the biers on which the
'gunmon lay in different morgues, and
at daylight additional police were sent
to the East Side to guard against any
outbreak or disorder,
The “confession” of “Dago Frank”
was given out by Warden Clancy in
Albany after he had made a report to
Superintendent Riley.
