thing that caught my eye was a big gray
automobile. 1t was just starting away.
In the automobile at the time there were
at least six men. The chauffeur was in

other man in the car, who seemed
anxious to get away. was apparently
urging the chauffeur to hurry up.
"A crowd was collectng-men and
women rushing from all sides. Uni
formed policemen with big billies in
their hands raced up to the scene. They
were pushing the crowd back.

for the movements Of the automobile.
Commissioner Dougherty said he had
talked with Shapiro, chauffeur of the
death car" and added:

he dismissed the car, Shapiro says he did
not"
The tone in which the commissioner
made this statement implied he placed
little confidence in Roses statement that
he got out of the car long before it
reached the Metropole Hotel, the scene Of
the murder. Rose claims he can prove an
alibi for the time an hour before and an
hour after the killing.
