CHARGES MADE BY RoSENTHAL
BEFORE HIS DEATH TO BE IN
VEsTiGATED BY GRAND JURY
MORE ARRESTS ARE EXPECTED
Police Commissioner Demands of the
District Attorney Strict Investiga-
ton of Charge that Police Depart
ment is Implicated.

New York, July ia fourth ar
rest in the case of the gambler, Her
man Rosenthal, who was shot to
death early yesterday morning just
before he was to testify about the
charges of gambling graft, was made
today when Louis Webber was
brought to police headquarters.
Webber, according to the police,
ran gambling house in opposition to
Rosenthal about three years ago, and
had incurred Rosenthal's enmity. AS
a feature of the fued between the
two men, Webber's home was dyna
mited, the police said, and his jaw
broken, incidents which they declared
were laid by Webber's friends at the
door of Rosenthal.
Police Commissioner Waldo sent a
letter to District Attorney Whitman
today in which he urged that a
complete investigation be made by
you, without any further delay, of
he allegations made in the press
that members of the police force have
been in partnership with gamblers
and the statement that you are al
legged to have made publicly that the
members of the department were
guilty of instigating the murder OF
the gambler"

of Herman Rosenthal were expect
ed today to disclose whether the pO-
lice or the gamblers directly insti-
gated the plot to kill him.

several men whom District Attorney
Whitman learned were connected
with the shooting. After several hours
of grilling Louis Libby and William
Shapiro, who owned the motor car
that was used in the killing, broke
down and told all they knew of the
murder.
"PoIice System" Responsible.
District Attorney Whitman believes
that the "police system" as it is fa-
miliarly known, was largely, il not
directly, responsible for the Staying
of Rosenthal, who had professed his
intention to make further charges
that certain of the police were graft
ing on gamblers.
District Attorney Whitman said
today that he would proceed with the
grand jury investigation into the
charges made by Rosenthal 1t was
reported that Rosenthal gave the
public prosecutor the names of three
men who had to be "seen" by the
gamblers before they could do bus
mess. One of them is said to be a
former city official, another a police
official, and a third hold
ing a clerical position in the police
District Attorney Whitman made
