JACK ROSE SAYS
THAT WEBER LIES
Denies That Becker's Cunmen
Were Drunk on Night
of Tragedy.

| NEW YORK, Dec 11.-Jack Rose
at his home, in Queens Borough said
that BRIDGE" Webber lied when he
asserted that there was no plot to kill
Rosenthal, and that the murder was
done on the spur of the moment. be-
cause two of the men were drunk.
Rose said it was true that he never
intended to have Rosenthal killed,
that he tried to ''stave it off," and
did so until Becker became exasperat-
ed with him and put Webber at the
work.
Rose denied that any of the gun
men were drunk on the night of the
shooting. He said he saw them leave
Webbers place, and they were, in his
estimation, in a perfectly serious and
sober condition.
John f. Mcintyre, chief counsel for
Becker, when told of Webber's state.
n,ent that there was no plot to MUIR
der Herman Rosenthal, said: "Ihave
said all along that, as sure as there is
a God in heaven, the conscience of
either Webber, Vallon or Schepps
would eventually prick them and
they would finally come out with the
truth
"Webber's statement confirms what
have repeatedly said. We always
knew that Webber did not meet
Becker at 124th street. and that no
such conversation as Webber swore
to ever took place. Webber and the
rest, for that matter, would never
have made their confession implicat-
ing Becker IL District Attorney Whit
man had not made a statement in
which he said he was after the big
fish, When they read this they saw
chance of duplicating Lieutenant
Becker and took advantage of it.

Science Understands
the Stomach
Treating Indigestion with Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets Is an Exact
science. They Give Quick


Medical men have learned more
about the stomach than perhaps
any other vital organ. They have
discovered why the stomach re-
bells at certain conditions-what
causes the formation of gases
what causes flatulency, heart
burn, dyspepsia, burning sensa-
ton, brash, and all the other dis
orders of the stomach.
They have gone further. They
have found remedies for all these
Affections. these. results of I'M
proper digestion. They have
learned that pepsin, hydrochloric
acid and fruit salts are powerful
digestants that relieve quickly
and surely all the troubles To
which the stomach Is subject.
They have discovered that one
grain of these properties will di-
gest 5000 grains of food.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
not a medicine. They are a SCI
entific compound that supplies
the stomach with the digestive
agents which it is itself unable to
provide. When your stomach is
sick and not working right
when it fails to give out enough
of the digestive juices to prop
erly take care of the food you eat
these tablets will make up the
deficiency. You will have no in
digestion. Your food will digest
thoroughly.
You can never tell just when
your stomach is going back on
you. 1t gives no warning. II
you eat a big meal, If you eat hur-
riedly, take one of these little
tablets. You will avoid lot of
pain and misery.
Some of the most prominent
men carry these tablets in their
vest pockets when they attend
banquets, etc, and never fail to
take them.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
sold by all druggists, at soc a
box.
