Morgan to Aid in Chase of Men Who Killed Rosenthal AFTER "HIGHER-UP” POLICE Gangster Implicated by Gossip Surrenders Himself Volun tarily to Police. XEW YORK, July 23.—Just a week ago today Herman Rosenthal, a gam bler vbo had charged the police with levying tribute upon lawbreakers, was s ' ni ,t to death in front of the Metropole hotel, but his actual slayers are still at large, though a number of policemen w , re only a short distance away at the time. The belief is generally growing that the actual assassins will never be captured unless run down by private endeavor. That private help will be given Dis trict Attorney Whitman became known today. J. P- Morgafi and other mil lionaires have pledged aid in running down the slayers to preserve law. There was another arrest in the case today, but it was made only when a man whom the police had confessed themselves unable to find surrendered himself. The latest prisoner is Harry Vallon. who has been frequently men tioned as a member of the gambling coterie that Rosenthal bad embittered by his revelations. He drove up to police headquarters at 1 o'clock this morning and gave his name to the lieutenant and was escorted to the Mulberry street police station. There he was booked as “Har r - Vallon. 35 years old, clerk —suspi- cious person." Whitman Hot After Police. p strict Attorney Whitman today said when asked if he would permit any of the Rosenthal murder conspirators to escap, by testifying before the grand jury: "I will protect as far as my power goes every man in this case if I can get the evidence I want against police men. evidence I know exists. I will let Shapiro and Libby and Bridgie Webber and Sam Paul and Jack Rose himself turn state's witnesses if I can get the police conspirators. •There are bigger men than Becker In this c. sc. and I want them. What has the police department, except •Doughertv. done? Nothing. They are not doing anything now. Dougherty is honest and on the level, but can he swing this thing alone? “The murder smells of police conni vance For an hour before Rosenthal was shot preparations were being made in Forty-third street for the murder. There were fifteen or sixteen men in it at the very least. The street was kept clear of taxicabs. "Rosenthal was watched. The de tails were worked out in plain sight. Rut the police were blind. After the killing there was plenty of time to get the murderers. It was a leisurely job. Rut the police did not hurry any. What did they do about getting evidence then" Nothing. The only man they held was young Gallagher, who gave the correct automobile number after half a dozen policemen had reported incorrect ntimbers. And they locked Gallagher up. In any other murder they would have scurried around and ar res* cd everybody in sight. Dougherty knows the police are hath of It. and that it was to the ad vantage of certain policemen that Ro senthal be murdered.” Widow Before Grand Jury. Shaking with sobs but nevertheless declaring she would get revenge for the death of her husband, the assassinated gambler, Mrs. Lillian Rosenthal was aken before the graftd jury today. She was the confidante of her husband and through her testimony District Attor ney Whitman expects to obtain cor roboration of the charges that the po lice levied tribute oil gambling. Along this line he sought information nn the following: The various dinner parties which she attended together with Rosenthal, Lieu tenant and Mrs. Becker and others. Whether Jack Rose was placed in Rosenthal's gambling house by Becker to tally the receipts and see that he received his full share of the profits. The conversations she overheard and those in which she participated between Rosenthal and Becker and between Rosenthal and others which had direct bearing on the case. The various warnings received from Rose and others that unless Rosenthal left town he would be killed. Telephone messages received from Res., immediately before the tragedy in "hi.h he intimated that Rosenthal was marked for death. The raids on Rosenthal's gambling houses and the insistence by Becker, on one of these occasions, to look up Rosenthal's nephew, who was found in the house but who was in no way con f"'ted with the gambling operations. The debt owed by Rosenthal to Beck <nd the agreement which caused Its cancellation. Habeas Corpus Hearing Goes Over, Ihe hearing before Judge Leonard A .

The next vic tim was the father of the demented man, who was killed as soon as he en tered the room. The wife and children escaped the shots fired at them.

WILL PROSECUTE GIRL'S WHIPPERS Lawyers Engaged to Push Cases Against Dawson Men. Essie Carter in Bad Shape. MACON. GA.. July 23.—Essie Car ter, the young white woman who was whipped at Dawson Saturday night by a number of prominent men. is in a very serious condition and the at tending physicians and her friends are alarmed. A high fever has developed, but the possibility of blood poison is the chief fear. The girl's body is so swollen that she is in constant agony. There is hardly an inch of flesh from the neck down that is not cut and dis colored and there is so much soreness that she can not bear the touch of either clothing or bandages. Two Macon lawyers have been en gaged to prosecute W. S. Dozier, Clyde Dozier and Pope McClung, whom the girl and her sister. .Mary Carter, charge with the whipping. It is probable that the proceedings will also implicate a dozen other men who are declared to have witnessed the occurrence. Tfie girls say that only W. S. Dozier, the father of V. E. Dozier, the 18-year-old boy who. was infatuated with Essie Carter, plied the whip. CASH COMES TOO LATE: MERCHANT A SUICIDE PHILADELPHIA. PA.. July 23.
