THURSDAY, AUGUST’ 8. 1912. ATLANTA POLICE HAVE NOCHANCE FORGRAFT SYSTEM, SAYS CHIEF "Could the Rosenthal murder happen in Atlanta?" Chief J. L. Beavers, of the Atlanta police force, leaned back In his chair and smiled. » "It’s of course possible for a band of assassins to organize, lay In wait for a man. shoot him and evefh obtain tem po ary freedom, but if you mean to ask whether the series of circumstances which led to the Rosenthal murder tould exist in Atlanta—l say no. em phatically." The chief gave several reasons "In the New York department, if my information Is correct, the system of protection to criminals which brought about the Rosenthal shooting was able to live on account of three things—a false idea of loyalty which made honest officers protect those who were not honest; secrecy of police records, and the extension of favors to criminals who might be useful. None of these exists or could exist in the Atlanta po lice force." Protection Couldn't Exist Here. The Rosenthal sensation glow's big ger with each passing day. After the gambler's death in front of the Metro pole revelations came thick and fast. Finally Lieutenant Recker, of the po lice department, w-as arrested and then came to light the story of the "system” which had enabled a man only two de grees removed from an ordinary police man to build up a graft institution feudal in its power. "I should say.” declared Chief Reav ers. "that protection could not exist in Atlanta primarily because there is nothing to protect. There is no gam bling here to speak of—but if there should be and an officer would attempt AT THE THEATERS BIG VAUDEVILLE STARS AT FORSYTH NEXT WEEK The bill at the Forsyth this week is serving to draw the. capacity of the popular theater at every performance.

The rooms of this fraternity are located on South Pryor street. "Captain B might be able to keep the place covered for a while.
