Oourt Room’s Smallness Makes
Rental of Auditorium the
Only Alternative.
Officials of the superior dourt are de
ba'ing today the dilemma which faces
them in preparing for the trial of Mrs.
Daisy Grace next Monday. They must
either Tire the Auditorium, which seats
gnnQ persons, or exclude the public en
tirely from the regular court room,
which will hold barely 100. It now is
considered probable that the latter
course will be adopted, and that no
persons will be admitted to the trial
except jurymen, witnesses, newspaper
reporter.- and the attaches and officials
of the court.
The Fulton county criminal court,
judge Rian's tribunal, now occupies the
fourth floor of the Thrower building at
Pr,or and Mitchell streets, one of the
two buildings leased by the county
whib the new court house is under
construction. The room barely suffices
for the crowd which attends an or
dinary criminal case, and it would be
totally inadequate for the throngs
which would certainly try to force en
trance to the hearing of Mrs. Grace.
It is reached only by a small elevator
and a narrow winding stairway, and
the admittance of the general public
to the trial would undoubtedly jam the
building and result in accidents or
panig.
Tull Waters, chairman of the
county commission, at first favored
leasing the great Auditorium and ad
mitting every one who desired to at
tend the trial. He believed that some
method might be devised of charging an
admittance fee or taking up a collec
tion to defray expenses, the surplus to
be devoted to charity; but when he
found there was no legal way in which
to charge a fee he abandoned this idea.
Eorsey Presumes It
Would Be Lawful.
Hugh M, Dorsey, solicitor general,
w.c- hardly willing to discuss the poa
tibih'y of the use of the Auditorium.
Ilf : aid:
i nave not investigated the question,
bin I presume that it would be lawful
f w ' n county commissioners to desig
r; ' any place within the limits of
; . ■ n county as the court house, and
■h-:t event all cases would have to
ird at such designated place.
"I suppose that by consent of the
co : t and counsel for the state and the
‘a sc the case could be heard at a
the <■ ..greed upon, but I am not now
ling to say whether I would make
stt h .m igrci ment or not. I have not
I • ' iisiiiered it.”

I ■' from the trial, only sending out
f invitation to certain citizens,

fomi'i, and believed it better to exclude

William Shapiro Turns State’s
Evidence in Rosenthal Slay
ing in New York.
NEW YORK, July 25.—Deputy Po
lice Commissioner Dougherty an
nounced today that William Shapiro,
the chauffeur who drove the automo
bile which carried the assassins to and
from the Hotel Metropole for the mur
der of Herman Rosenthal, had turned
state's evidence ami would make a full
confession this afternoon, in which he
would name every man who rode in the
car and tell every fact that he knew in
connection with the killing.
Before this announcement was made
John Boissier, alias "John the Barber,”
who is under arrest under a perjury
ehai'ge, furnished District Attorney
Whitman with an affidavit, in which
he swore that he saw Louis (“Bridgie”)
Webber running away from the Hotel
Metropole just after Rosenthal was
killed. Harry Vallon was also taken
into Coroner’Feinberg’s court, but the
hearing of al! four men went over un
til Monday at 10 a. m„ upon request
of District Attorney Whitman, who
ask'd for the postponement on the
ground that new evidence and new wit
nesses are being uncovered so fast that
ho has been unable so far to give prop
er attention to the cases against the
four nmn,
Sam Paul, the gang leader, accused
of participating in the murder of Ro
senthal. today abandoned his efforts to
secure his liberty under habeas corpus
proceed ings.
Police Shielding
Real Assassins.
That the police are shielding the real
murderers of Herman Rosenthal, the
gambler shot down after h.- had ac
cused the police of levying blackmail,
is the charge openly made by the
newspapers of this city today. They
as-ort that three of the five men whom
;'m police profess to be "anxious to
find" are appearing daily in their
usual haunts without any attempt at
'■oncealment.
One newspaper today beads its story
with this declaration in black type:
“Nine days have elapsed since Her
man Rosenthal was assassinated be
fore an assembalge of half a hun
dred persons in front of_the Metropole
hoHl and the men who committed the
crime are still at large.”
District Attorney Whitman was told
that two of the men he wants nere at
Forty-eighth street and Sixth .avenue
night before last. Harry Horrowitz,
known as “Gib the Blood." has writ
ten a friend that he will attend a
nv.-ting of the Sam Paul association
tonight.
The man who got the letter is a
close personal friend of Lieutenant
I-I’,' ’.- A. Becker. "Gib the Blood'
intimates he may be expected to ride
in style to police headquarters at any
time and give himself up as others
have done. One extract from his let
ter is: "You know they can't get any
thing on me. All I'm afraid of is some
of these hop heads will blow on me be
fore I've got things squared. Are they
stalling on Bridgie?"
It is Inferri d he has been having
trouble getting his alibi in shape. The
district attorney is working today on
a- suspicion that Bridgie Webber took
a noted gunman and gangster to the
Fort Lowrey hotel at Bath Beach the
Thursday before the murder and
brought him to New York Saturday.
The gunman can not be found.
The police officials and district at
•orney are picking holes in several
alibis offered by the prisoners, but
Webber seems to be the object of their
heavy fire. They have strong hopes of
inducing him to talk freely and it is
known the others involved mem to
fem worse than any that Webber will
"squeal."

DAMAGE TO GEORGIA
ROADS FROM RAINS
MORE THAN $1,000,000
Returning from a- tour of inspection ;
of the roads in Georgia, Professor John [
C. Koch, of the engineering department '
of the state university, said more than i
a million dollars damage had been done ‘
to highways by rain.
"The roads in many parts of the state
are so badly washed out they virtually |
must be rebuilt," said Professor Koch,
in Stewart county the grade’s have
been reduced from a ten per cent maxi,
mum to two per cent in the effort to
make repairs to the washed out high
ways more permanent.
Professor Koch says that in every
county he visited citizens and county
officials are co-operating in a splendid
campaign for permanent road improve
ment.
