New York, July 23.-The gunner
wanted for the killing of Ga .lbler
Herman Rosenthal are beginnils to-
fall into nets set by the police. larry
Vallon, one OF the five notorious gang
sters who were in the murder car"
the night Rosenthal was shot, sur
rendered this morning. Within ten
Gays Deputy Commissioner Dougherty
expects to round up the entire gang
of gun carriers.
| With the men who actually did the
shooting in the tolls, the main work
of District Attorney Whitman and
Deputy Police Commissioner Douguer
| ty Will begin, that OF trying 20 learn
so greatly desired that Rosenthal be
done away with before he could make
further revelations OF the relations
| between the olice and gamblers
Agree as to Instigator.
! Several OF New York's prominent
citizens have offered TO pay for a pri-
vate Investigation into the question
OF whether police partnership with
gamblers led to the Staying of Rosen-
thai.
Commissioner Dougherty remarked
significantly to District Attorney
Whitman that l guess we agree as to
who is back of this killing.
! But the public prosecutor does not
feel that Commissioner Dougherty
can swing the investigation of the
killing along, as he is of the belief
that the police department will give
no real aid.
The surrender of Vallon may be fol-
lowed by the voluntary appearance of
the other gangsters known to have
been in the murder car" the night
of the killing. Besides Vallon there
were Harry Horwitz, best known un-
der his gang name Of Glib the Blood,
"Dago Frank" all East Side gang
ster; Lefty Louie" and Witty Lewis.
Vallon has nothing of the appear
ance of gangster of the meaner
sort. His appearance at police head
quarters dumfounded the desk SER
geant and he had to convince the de-
tectiyes as to his identity before they
locked him up.
Dapper VaIoon.
Vallon drew up at headquarters in
taxicab and loungers saw a fastid- |
iously dressed, dapper little chap step
lightly out from the car and swinging
cane from gloved hand, mount |
the steps of the building.
Kindly tell me where the detective
bureau is" he asked
Then Vallon appeared before Lieu |
tenant McNally and gave himself up
and was locked up, after that aston
isned official could summon an Off. |
Ger.
Commissioner Dougherty prepared
to give Vallon the third degree today
to learn further of those who hired
the gunmen to kill Rosenthal. That
some of the gunner have fled the city
is believed by detectives, who add
that the gangsters are probably hid
ing in Chicago.
CONCESSION Expected.
Deputy Commissioner Dougherty .
thinks that from some one of the gun
men he will be able to obtain a con-
fession that will result in bringing
book those higher up. The commits
sioner says that nearly a score of
men played parts in the plot that end
ed in the killing of Rosenthal ana
from among them he expects to find
"squealer."
Want the "Higher Up."
The intimation has gone forth for
the benefit of the East Side gangmen
that those who shot down Rosenthal
will be leniently treated with if thru
them those higher up" can be
reached as the real conspirators.
District Attorney Whitman when
told that counsel for Shapiro was
ready to have the chauffeur OF the
murder car" turn states evid .nce If
ne would be protected, said:
Here is my position: | will protect
every man in this case if I can get
the evidence | want against police
men, evidence I know exists. | will |
let Shapiro and Libby turn states
witnesses if I can get the police con-
spirators. But have got to be shown
