HIS CONFESSION FOR GEORGIAN

By JACK ROSE.
The gambler who declares that Lieu
tenant Becker forced him into the
plot to slay Herman Rosenthal.
NEW YORK, August 13.—1 have
been asked to rvrite for The
AHanta Georgian on "Gambling" and
life in the so-called "underworld.” It
is something to think over. I am a
man 37 years of age. tyith a devoted
wifi', iwo handsome boya and of par
entage that I .an boast of. My early
life was in an environment that should
have influenced me to a useful life.
At one time I had friends who would
have helped me to acquire a station in
■ hie that was worth while. All are now
a memory of the past. As I sit in my
cell I look back with a heart filled with
sorrow and regret, and all cr.ucad by
one thing, “The curse of gambling.”
I gambled away everything, first my
own money, then the money I could
borrow from my friends; ihen my
credit; then my word of honor. When
noihing remaiped wherewith to gamble
I let myself become a tool in the plot
ting of h man s life. If resulted iti my
self and three of tny dearest friends
facing the charge of being accessories
to the murder of Herman Rosenthal
Wants to Start Over Again.
I don't know how it is ail going to
end. but if evei I again set my feet on
ihe pavements as a fiee man I want to
take tn'- wife and boys to some place
where in some way 1 can start life over
again.
With gambling I am through. If
some young man starting on the road I
have traveled will read this and turn
back I will feel that some of my suffer
ing has been worth rvhile.
As a young man I drifted into the
state of Connecticut. In the city of
Hanford I launched the Charter Oak
A. C. It was a boxing club, at which
we gave monthly exhibitions.
I added to this another club in
Bridgeport, and one in Waterbury I
also acquired a baseball franchise in
the Connecticut State league.
All these ventures brought me in
close contact with spotting men. Soon
I took to gambling
Known as a Good Fellow.
My gambling in Connecticut was
confined to friendly games of poker, as
the state of Connecticut does not pos
sess any public gambling houses
My business as matchmaker and
manager of the athletic clubs called
for frequent trips to New York to meet
boxers and their managers I attended
boxing exhibitions and stopped at a
Broadway case or restaurant, all of
which usually led to a visit to sonu
gambling house uptown.
The game I mostly p ayed was fat i
bank Like all gamblers. I had friends
when my run of luck was phenomenal,
and then mi winnings ran into thou
sands
I always traveled with a crowd with
whom I enjoyed the reputation of be
inji a good fellow." one who would be'
his money and would also spend II
I had a reputation to sustain; first,
the good fellow" end of it. which
meant when I won I divided my win
nings oi spent them; anothe: part of
my reputation was that I would bet th.
limu against the "bank." If I had rea'-
ly bet what I ought to. in keeping witlt
my means. I would still have been
playing in the friendly "penny ante"
poker game up in Connecticut.
on my return to Connecticut after
my ttips to New York the poker game
had lost its attraction for me.
I began making excuses to my asso
' fates to get down to New York again
The gambling frier was on me. and
life in Connecticut was getting -iowei
all the time.
I was nuking money in Connecticut,
besides enjoying ilie confidence and re.
spect of man.' of its most prominent
citizens
On any one of my trips to New York
I lost mote titan my thiee boxing i tubs
could earn for me in ■wetal nights.
Soon 1 began borrowing right and
left from my friends in Connect nut
hoping against hope that some one
night I would "bust" the "faro bank"
und pay every body
That nevet came Soon my asso
ciates began questioning the cause of
my frequent trips to New York, my
constantly increasing demands sot
money and my failure to pay my debts
after a division of profits from the
boxing < lubs
All tin- rej|i,neii explanations, as my
associates were all men of standing and
high honor.
I remember one day. when I owed
my partners personally considerable
money and when the day after an un
usually successful show at one of our
clubs we were settling up. 1 asked them
if they would please favor me by let
ting me have my share in full and per
mit my indebtedness io them to stand
until the next show.
I gave as an excuse that a matter of
great importance down in New York
required my immediate attention. I
needed, I said, just about the amount of
my' share to straighten it out. They
readily agreed, and one of my partners,
a prominent hotel man, said;
"Why. Jack, if when you get down to
New York you find that you need more,
don't hesitate to draw on me” i got
my share, about $l,o()0, rushed and got
the 5 o'clock train out of Bridgeport.
Seven o'clock that night found me oc
cupying a front seat at the "faro bank."
Twelve o'clock that night I walked
out of there penniless, with the colored
attendant helping me on with my over
coat. mumbling away at me about
"Have a cigar?” and all the other
things they keep saying to a loser.
I was all in a daze, as my affairs
were coming to a crisis. I equid not go
on much longer; my good friends in
Connecticut would soon begin to sus
pect the truth.
Begins Hunt For Money.
I walked out into the street and im
mediately began thinking where 1 could
get more money to play the ."bank"
with.
I would have sold my soul for mon
ey to continue playing. I thought of my
friend who that very day had told me
not to hesitate to draw on him if 1
needed money, but that wouldn't be
good until tomorrow
So I went into the hotel, got on the
long distance telephone apd got him
out of bed. told him something terrible
hud happened and couldn't lie suggest
some way that he could get SSOO to me
at once.
He said. "Go over to so-and-so."
naming a prominept hotel keeper, "and
ask him to get me on the phone." This
I did.
The result of the talk was that the
hotel keeper handed me five SIOO bills,
and I was back at the "faro hank" and
"broke" again before 3 a. m.
I got up from the table and again
had to pass tlti'ougli the torture of lis
tening to all the trained attendant had
to say to me about "how they will run
against a man when he has a streak of
bad luck."
Couldn't Bear to Face Friends.
I walked out on the street like a
drunken man I realized then that to
go back to Connecticut was out of the
question. I couldn't bear to face my
friends and creditors there. My in
debtedness then In Connecticut repre
sented several thou.-and dollats. all lost
in gambling, as well as the large sums
I had made in my many sporting ven
tures
I sat down in the hotel and wrote
several letters to my partners and
others in Connecticut, making a clean
breast of every thing That ended my
cateet in Connecticut, a golden oppor
tunity thrown away "to lie a man
among men-" and all through my love
for "gambling."
I remained in New Yotk and gave
myself to a life of "gambling." Dur
ing the racing season I played the
races. At other times I frequented
"gambling houses' All 1 was accumu
lating was a reputation that "gam
bling" had taken such a hold on tm.
that mine was a "hopeless ease." and I
could soon see that their attitude to
ward me had changed
Becomes Gamblers' Associate.
Then I became the associate of gam
biers exclusively and made my head
quarters downtown, where gambling
went on in a smaller way. But just as
soon as I accumulated a sufficient sum
to entitle me to gamble in the more
pretentious houses uptown where the
chances of winning a large sum was
the bait, 1 made for them.
At times I made large winnings, and
with the exception of paying a few
pressing things, always kept the bal
ance intact, and would make my ap
pearance promptly at opening time and
play Almost invariably 1 finished
broke
When these periods of. as we term
them, "bad luck." come along. I would
be ov ei i ome with a feeling of ■ emorse
and regret and begin to p.an ami figui;
I to break away from "gambling" and
my gambling associates.
I It was about this time that two life
■ long friends of mine who were in the
theatrical business showed a disposi
tion to help me if I would quit gam
i bling.
1 promised 1 would, and they were
kindness itself I began to acquire a
knowledge of the theatrical business
and looked forward to an opportunity
to get in business for myself.
He Is Idle; Drifts Back.
About this time an unfortunate thing
happened. My two friends dissolved
partnership, and the one I remained
with for the time being couldn’t assist
me to realize my ambition. 1 helped
him along in his business part of eaeli
day. Affairs went in such a state that
with too much idle time I drifted back
to my old ways and associates. 1 was
soon at it again hammer and tongs
"gambling" hard as ever.
I had then joined the Hesper club
and spent most of my time there. My
friend in the theatrical business began
to meet with great success, and I was
looking forward to the chance that had
. been promised me. '
All this time my friend helped me in
every conceivable way, excepting the
, way I hoped he would. He supplied
me with all-the money I wanted to keen
at "gambling." On many occasions he
paid my gambling debts, and when tny
run of hard luck was unusually long
and I felt ashamed to go to him. I re
sorted to methods that caused him con-
I siderable embarrassment, such as bor
rowing from his partners or making
promises when negotiating a loan that
my friend would pay for me.
He spoke of my methods on many
occasions, and eventually they led to
an open quarrel.
Was Rosenthal's Chum.
Then 1 drifted back down town and
became indifferent to ev> rything and
anything but "gambling." Most of my
time was spent in the company of Her
man Rosenthal.
Right here 1 want to say. without
violating a promise made to District
Attorney Whitman, that for years Her
man and i w ere the best of ehums. We
often had our differences, but never of a
serious nature. They were Hie quarrels
that come to men who have given up
their lives to the "hell of hells" —gam-
bling.
When things went w rong we blamed
each other Each thought the other
should have done the other thing—"bet
on the other horse, or to have played
the opposite system at the bank" —but
soon we would patch it up and then
everything was qll right again. We
continued on trying to get rich over
night.
Dispute Over Winnings.
I am just thinking of a strange freak
of fate. Herman and 1 had been or
the outs for quite a while over a mis
understanding we had as to w hat should
have been the proper division of some
money I had won playing "faro bank."
Gamblers have certain laws of their
own. and our dispute involved the
question of a gambler's point of law.
I had at Herman s suggestion made a
loan of S2OO from a friend. We went
up tow n to gamble. On our way 1 said
to Heiman. "Whatever 1 win half is
y ours.' I started playing and soon won
$,1,000. cashed in and quit, handing Her
man SSOO as his par, ot the winning's,
as per agreement. We left the place
and returned down town. We sat around
the Hesper club a while, when some
1 one else in the club said they were
going up town to play ihe "bank."
He Beats “Bank” Again.
I said 1 would go. too. On my way
out I stopped to ask Herman if he
would come along. He said he had
enough for that, night. 1 went alone,
played again, and won SSOO. The fol
lowing day I met Herman, who had al
ready heard the result of my second
play He gteeted me with "I can just
use that $250. Jack."
"1 said. "What s2so'.'
"Why, my part of that ssoo you won.'
' Why." 1 said, "you are joking."
"No." he said. "The last thing I
said as you left the club was 1 am in
which, if I had heard him say", or if it
had been said in the presence of a third
party, entitled him to his share.
But I had not heard him. nor could
he produce any one who heard him
say it.
So I refused him his half. It result
ed in a quarrel and we were not on
speaking ti fms until one night some
time after he met me on Fourteenth
street, in fiont of Tom Sharkey's case.
He asked me in to have a drink and
we patched it up.
From this same case, about four
years later, started the gray automo
bile "hi h ended its i ide in the murder
of Herman Rosenthal, and all through

Zapatists, Defeated by Feder
ate, Slay Garrison of 100
and 100 Townsmen.
MEXICO CITY. Aug. 13.—Two hun
dred persons were killed, one hundred
of them townspeople, following an at
tack oh the town of Ixtapa, in the state
of Mexico, by Genevevo De 1-a Or's
band of Zapatists. Today the soldiers
have withdrawn from the town and are
marching toward Toluca, the capital of
the state, which is only fifteen miles
distant.
The fight and massacre at Ixtapa oc
curred late yesterday after the rebels
had been repulsed by a garrison of 600
federate at Tenancinp, a town in the
vicinity of Ixtapa. A garrison of 100
rurales guarded the latter place. The
rebels charged and drove the rurales
back into the narrow streets of the vil
lage. There they began a murderous
tire, and hardly one of the rurales es
caped.
then the rebels marched through the
streets, shooting and stabbing any one
they met. Among the dead, it is said,
are a few women and children. Two
hundred bodies lay in the streets, ac
cording to reports today, after the reb
els had withdrawn.
Rebels in the vicinity and at Toluca
are in a state of panic because of the
rebel activity. There is only a small
force of federate at Toluca, and it Is
believed they can not withstand the
rebel attack. Many persons have tied
from the city.
Only One Killed
In Attack on Capital
SAN JI'AN DEI. SI R, NICARAGUA.
Aug. 13.—One person was killed, sev
eral women and children were wounded
and a dozen or more buildings were
riddled by shells in the bombardment
of the capital city of Managua by rebel
artillery Sunday, according to a dis
patch received here today. It was
stated, however, that no foreign prop
erty had been damaged. The rebel ar
tillerymen apparently took pains to
prevent firing into the consulate build
ings.
When the message was sent the rebel
batteries of General Luis Mena and
General Zeledon were still planted be
fore the city, while the defending bat
teries were kept shotted on Loma hill
for a renewal of hostilities. The casu
alties were caused by the bursting of
shrapnel shells.
During the firing the United States
bluejackets from the gunboat Annapo
lis were kept near the United States
consulate out of the path of the shells.

GIRLLUREDBYAD
ELOPES IND IS
DESERTED
Lured by an advertisement offering
to share $40,000 with the country girl
who would become his wife, wooed
and won and deserted after eloping,
Mary McEachin, nineteen-year-olc
daughter of J. P. McEachin. a re
tired farmer of Denton. Ga.. appeared
at police station today and asked Chief
Beavers to begin a hunt for her dash
ing husband of a few days.
Miss McEachin told the chief a story
that had all the elements of romance ir
It. Some weeks ago she read in a daily
newspaper an advertisement in whici
the writer announced that he wanted a
country girl for a wife and had s4h.oof.
to share with her. She answered and
was delighted to get a quick response.
A Dashing Wooer
Was Hutcheson.
Her correspondent, who gave his
name as Conway Hutcheson, of Bat
tenberg, Va„ proved a lightning wooer.
He announced that he'd run down to
Denton at once and before Miss Mc-
Eachin could draw a long breath he
was on his way.
He arrived July 31. Although Hutch
eson had said he was from Battenberg,
he had all the dash country girls usual
ly associate with the big cities, and
Miss McEachin lost her heart in less
time than it takes to shuck corn
When her parents got an inkling of the
romance they put in strenuous objec-
I tions and the pair pretended to be re
signed to their verdict.
The actual wooing, the parental ob
jection and the pretended resignation
all came in one day. Hutcheson said
he'd be on his way home, heartbroken
and discouraged. Miss McEachin said
she'd see him off. and went to the sta
tion with him. while her parents flat
tered themselves on her implicit obe
dience
They Elope and
Are Mamed Here.
But instead of seeing her advertis
ing sweetheart off. she got on the train
with him and they came to Atlanta.
On August 1 they were married by Jus
tice of the Peace Orr, and spent the
first days of their honeymoon at a ho
tel in this city. Then they decided to
go back to Denton and brave the pa
rental wrath.
They got there Sunday morning, and
Hutcheson announced that he had a
pressing business engagement many,
many miles away. He left S2O with his
bride, and a score of kisses, and de
parted.
On August 8 the young bride, dream-
I ing of the far away husband, got a
letter—a letter that sent her romance
crashing. It was full of assumed trag
edy. It ran wet with tears.
"You don't love me any more." the
dazed bride read. "Therefore 1 am
going away. You will see me no more
I can not beat the thought of your love
having turned cold. God forgive me
for leaving you like this, but I could
not look upon you again in the realiza
tion that you love me no more.”
That was the gist of it. Today the
sadder and wiser little bride appeared
at the police station with her sister-in
law. Mrs. Herman McEachin. of 97
Lovejoy street, Atlanta, wife of e
Southern railway conductor. Chief
Beavers premised her to start a search
for the vanished husband, but the pros
pects of locating him are none 100
