BECKER FURTHER IMPLICATED
BY THE CONFESSION OF ROSE
Story Is Told That Murder
Of Rosenthal Had Been
Scheduled for Ten Days
Before, but the Thugs Lost
Their Nerve.

New York, July 31.--Police Lieu
tenant Charles Becker. head of the
"strong-arm squad" of gambling
raiders. who IL charged with instigat
ing the murder of Herman Rosenthal.
was tonight further implicated in the
plot TO get rid Of the gambler when
Bald Jack" Rose and 'Bridgie" Web
Der added another chapter to their
amazing allegations.
They told District Attorney Whit
man that Rosenthal was to have been
killed at the instigatlon of Becker 10
days before he actually met his fate
and that the plot failed because the
underworld thugs selected to do the
murder lost their nerve.
The district attorney spent the
greater part of the afternoon with
Rose and Webber in their cells at the
west side police station and under
the promise Of lenieney they talked
freely. They gave little additional In
formation regarding the $2.400,000 fund
which they alleged illegal resorts paid
for police protection every year. but
their story of the alleged anxiety of
Lieutenant Becker because of Roscn-
that's threatened exposure was ampli-
fled To the district attorney. Becker
had talked with me every day" Rose
said. He kept saying to me, why
don't you kill this fellow OFF, Rosen-
thai would have been killed off that
night II the bunch hadn't lost their
rerye. They got the notion. after
they had the restaurant w',e"a Rosen-
thai was, that detective was onto
them. After giving up the work we
went to Bridgie' Webber's place and
there we met Becker. He denounced
us all up and down. You are all a

fidence tonight that II Becker would

the door to the general extent OF the
police graft system In which Rose has
declared several high police officials
are involved SO far Mr.. Whitman has
obtained little real evidence against the
men mentioned by Rose as heads of

which Rose alleged that about $500, 900
each was collected as vice protection
money and distributed.

attorney today that his own payment
to Becker for police protection of his
