start for Port-au-Prince to claim the
Presidency Of Hayti. bringing with him
a big party Of followers who have been
In exile in Jamaica since the late Gen
Ieconte became President, caused a
panic here to-day.
Saint just cannot become President
without displacing Gen. Auguste, the
Haytian Congress choice a. Leconts's 9
successor, and Auguste will not give up
without fighting. He counts on the army
to support him, but 1t N said many OF the
soldiers favor Saint just.
Reports have it that the Dominican
Government is preparing a demand for
explanation Of Hayti's alleged activity
In stirring up q revolution in santo Do
mingo. Between Saint just and Santo
Domingo the people think there is pretty
sure to be fighting shortly and are seri-
ously frightened.
That an agent Of the Haytian exiles
in Santo Domingo caused the death OF
Ieconte has not been verified. The

ROSE TOLD TO END HIS LIFE.
HAT Followed Third Appeal foI
PPOtectl0n.

The true story Of what drove Jack
Rose to the confession that put Lieut..
+ cker in the Tombs charged with the
murder OF Herman Rosenthal Is told
here for the first time.
II was the reply. whispered to him on
the afternoon Of July 25 In the counsel
room OF the Tombs. to the third message
he had sent to a police official asking
whether he could rely on Becker's prom
ises Of protection. This was the answer
to his final appeal:
"The best thing for you to do is to
kill yourself
That advice sent to Rose one week
after he had surrendered was a plain
intimat tion that he was to be left to shift
for himself.
90 Rose. who had been hoping against
hope. agreed then to the persuasions Of
his lawyer. James NJ. Sullivan. and sent
Sullivan to District Attorney whitman.
The District Attorney. who was at the
Equinox Hotel In Manchester. VI. last
night, knows the name OF the police Of
ficial upon whom Lieut. Becker and
Rose had been relying. This mans
name 1. known 70 Mr.. Whitman. to
Roses lawyer. Sullivan. and to Max d.
Steuer. counsel for Bridgie Webber.
No feature Of O crime which almost
daily has produced new and extraordi-
nary developments was more interest
ing than the story Of Roses wavering
and vacillation and his determination
after the suicide hint to throw himself
on the mercy Of the District Attorney.
Impressed by Becker.
As he tells It, he had seen the power
Of Lieut.. Becker grow surely and
steadily. He had seen Becker treat
with contempt officials higher In rank
than himself. Becker had dinned his
ears with brags and boasts that there
was nothing the commander Of the
strong arm squad could not do In the
Police Department. He had been hyp.
Noticed by Becker. Becker had made
him an errand boy. II grating was
so safe. why not murder? SO Rose
took the police view that nobody cared
a whit as to what happened to Q
gambler. a man outside the law.
Rose. with Becker, had the notion
that there would be sort OF an in
vestigation, but that the hue and cry
would speedily die away.
II was on Thursday. July Is at 8
A. NJ. that ne gave himself up against
the advice OF the lieutenant. He slipped
from Beckcr's leash because his sus-
picions had been aroused by the visit
Of Lawyer Hart and Becker's desire
to get an affidavit that would white
wash Becker. Rose surmised then that
ne was to be made the scapegoat. lie
felt In his heart that he was to be
deserted. He tried to believe that
Becker would make good In protecting
him. but the indications were all against
It.
II saw then" said Rose. that I was
nothing but q shiftless gambler, who
didn't count for much any way you
look at 1t. ! saw that nobody would
believe my story. felt that they were
golnE to put the whole crime on me
II they could. But ] wanted to make
sure. wanted to give them every
chance"
The day he was arrested he put him
self In the hands Of James NJ. Sulli-
van. who had been his lawyer before.
