DRIVER Of DEATH
CAR TO GO FREE
Shapiro, Too, Gets Liberty for
Testifying Against Convicted
Gunner Quartet.

NEW YORK, Nov. 20.-As reward
,or his testimony against the four gun
men convicted yesterday of assassinat-
me Herman Rosenthal, William Sha-
MIRO driver of the murder car" in
which the slayers escaped, will be
given his liberty.
This was learned today when District
attorney Whitman announced that
Lack sullivan or Jacob Reich, friend of
rz-Lieutenant Charles Becker. will be
he next and last man to be tried. The
Indictment against Shapiro was quish-
ed.
When the death house doors at Sing
Sing close behind the four gunner,
there then will be there five of the ten
men who have been accused of partici-
nation in the conspiracy which cost Ro-
seminal his life.
Four of Gang Freed.
-Four of the ten will go free. They
are Jack Rose, "Bridgey" Weber Har-
nv WALTON and William Shapiro Rose.
Wobber and WALTON. the informers, may
be released at once. No indictment
was found against them and they are
held simply on Coroner F'einberg' S
commitment. BY the stipulation which
induced them to testify for the state,
District Attorney Whitman is bound
10 cause their release and he will make
good his word by asking the coroner

bowed no signs of concern today.
They calmly unpacked their belong

lowed into dress suit cases with the
hope Of being with their friends and
families today
All ate well Of the prison breakfast
fare, and even joked with some of their
fellow prisoners.
They spent much time in dressing for
their appearance in court, and were
lavish in their use of the brand of per-
fume peculiar to their kind.
The four gunner will be sentenced
next Tuesday, November %. Justice
'}off held a brief session of court to-
day and announced this date for the
final act in the trial of the young slay-
n.s They will be sentenced to death
Marks End of Gang Rule"
81 believe this marks the end Of gang
rule and gunner in certain parts Of
tne city" said District Attorney Whit
man today. This murder was a direct
challenge 10 the law. It was directed
by a man high in police affairs and with
q power that he believed could over
come all legal machinery. The verdict
shows the people of New York were
ready to accept the challenge and re-
spond TO the call to vindicate the law.
Twenty jurors have now pass
eu upon the issues involved in this in
actnent, TO say nothing Of the other
- members Of the grand jury of this
county, and I have yet 10 hear of a
single dissenting voice as to the guilt

The case Of the gunner. although it
deals with murder and criminals of the
worst order, is not without its pathetic
side. Lefty Louie" for instance, has
an aged father and mother who are TO-
day in despair. Like the loyal couple
they are. they still believe in their
boys innocence and can not bring
themselves to think that the son for
whom they cherished big hopes could

Day ST for Marrlanea

Visitors to the quaint old city of
Plougastel. in Brittany, are struck
with the fact that all marriages are
solemnized in a single day of the
year. Why this unusual custom pre-.
walls is easily explained. The men
are all fishermen, many OF them going
as far as the Newfoundland banks,
and are at home only during a few
months in the winter. One day in
early February Is set apart for the
weddings. Little counting is done, b.
much haggling over the dowry of the
girls. They have to bring certain
quantity of linen, chickens, pigs, and
vegetables. Frequently q match is
broken of because father refuses to
add a sack OF potatoes to the dowry.
On the day set the Inhabitants Of tho
entire region go to Plaugastel. The
whole population goes to CHURCH to
hear mass. to take communion. Often
so or more couples are united on the
same day. Bride and bridegroom do
not walk together until the ceremony
has been completed.

Speculation on His Demise.

Friends of Massenet say that the
great composer had presentiment of
his approaching death and liked to
speculate on the way in which the
news would be received. This is
borne out by his memoirs, which he
had just completed. for one of the
later pages bears the following entry:

The United States leads in the per.

In a little country like Switzerland,
