NEW YORK MORALITY.
A FrightfuI State Of Things Revealed BY
the Investigation Into the
Abortion Horror.

NEW YORK. August 30.-AnOthe
Investigation was made to-day at tn
house of DIR, Rosensweig, and resulteC
in the discovery Of important letters
bJank death and still-birth certificates
and a long list of prescriptions.
A man who gives his name as Eos
fer and said he lived in Sixteenth
street. Brooklyn, called on WardeT
brennan to-day with his servant girl
who had lived with him some
months AGO. The woman who &C
cOmpanied him also recognized the
body.
The report that the murdered girl
was a niece of the Doctor is not con-
tirmed.
The case Of ROsensWeig has aroused
a feeling Of great indignation.
The number Of abOrtiOnists IN the
city of both sexes is known TO be large,
one newspaper having business ad-
vertisements Of no less than twelve OF
these practitioners.
The city press are demanding gen.
eral cleaning out of these establish
ments by the police. 1t is believed
that the Indignation of the public will
result in securing some action IN JnlS
direction by the properly constituted
authorities.
Dr. ROsensweig told a Times re-
porter some time ago that he would
attend to an ordinary case for two
hundred dollars, and that he had IA
cilities for furnishing marriage and
burial certificates, the same as
Madame Ristell and the Others had.
This much he said in the full belief
that the reporter came in good faith to
solicit his services, but when he
learned that he was only a newspaper
man in quest OF useful knowledge, he
raved and went on like maniac; so
much y that the reporter was in fear
of his own life.
One important fact, possibly new to
a msjority of the public, is brought
distinctly out by the interviewer,
namely, that ROsensweig, and many
Others ike him, have means for white
washing soiled regulations committed
to their care, as well as q sort OF legal
blind for committing the remains of
their butchered victims to the grave
without the intervention of a COro-
ner's jury, or a proper certificate of
death from natural causes.
