One Of Men Implicated in RosenthaI
Murder Taken.


New York. Aug. 12.-The arrest Of
Sam schepps in Hot Springs has giv.n
new impetus to the Rosenthal in
vestigation. 1t is considered the most
important development since the con-
fessions of Jack Rose and "Bridgie"
Webber led to the indictment Of Police
Lieutenant Charles Becker as the al
legged instigator OF the murder. Schepps
has been wanted by the district at
torney to complete his evidence OF the
assassination plot.
one OF the most interesting features
In connection with the arres. Of
Schepps Is that the police here appear
to have had no hand in the matter.
Late last night. nearly twenty-four
hours after the arrest. Deputy COM
missioner Dougherty was In ignorance
of the capture except for new wsparer
dispatches. s
Il can't understand it." Mr.. Dough-
erty said. "On July 81 I wrote q let
ter to the chief Of police at Hot
Springs asking him to be on the look
out for schepps. I had no particular
tip that Schepps was in Hot Springs.
but I was aware OF the fugitive's
physical condition and deduced that he
might go there. can't understand
why the New York police have rot
been notified IL Schepps has really
been arrested.
telegraphed the Hot Springs po-
lice this afternoon for information and
for the circumstances under which
the arrest was made, but have re-
ceived no reply"
The explanation an Indicated IN the
newspaper dispatches appears to be
that the arrest was made by private
detectives. The commissioner said 1t
could not have been detectives at
tached to District Attorney Whit
mans office, as none OF these had
gone to Hot Springs and could not
go without permission from the detec-
tive bureau.
Mr.. Dougherty declared that IL
Schepps were really In custody 1t Is
most important contribution to the
case.
Schepps, 1t is alleged, was in the
conspiracy to murder Rosenthal, rode
in the automobile with the slayers to
and from the scene. and paid of the
gangsters after they had completed
their work.
It is said that Screpps was furnish
ed with $1,000 for this purpose. This
sum is supposed to have been divided
among "Dago Frank. white" Lewis

Harry Horowitz). The capture of
Schepps leaves two men wanted stlll
