Norwich bulletin., 1912-07-19

autographic statement to the effect that I do not charge the police depart ment with the murder of RosenthaL The insinuation that I am moved by a desire for publicity in attacking the large body of policemen on account of the wrongdoings of a few is untrue, unfair and seems to be an attempt to turn public attention away from the viewpoint:
 First, Herman Rosenthal charged that he had been forced into partner ship with police lieutenant, and that other gamblers were in similar sit uation. Just as he was about to tes- ttfy on this subject and to give de- tails and names, he was murdered publicly-dramatica You demand ed and continue to demand, that his charge be investigated. How? By what witnesses? He is dead. He has taken the other names with him. In the face of this murder other will other gamblers rush forward to tell? Will guilty policemen confess? Is this inquiry one that be be conduct ed, except by the agency of detectives which branch of the public service is under your charge and direction?"
 Owners of Car Claim Innocence.
 Assemblyman Aaron Levy, counsel for Louis Libby, and William Shapiro, alleged owners of the murder car," intimated that his clients would be glad to tell all they knew if the dis trict attorney accepted them as wit nesses. Neither Libby nor Shapiro has given to the police the names of the men who were in the car before and after the murder" said MT. Levy. The changes in passengers, the con- versations in the car, are known to at least one of my clients. The other has certain corroborative evidence. Their evidence is necessary; they were themselves innocent of any intent or willingness to commit a crime. It is up to the district attorney" Sam Paul, who delivered the mes- sage to Deputy Commissioner Dough- erty yesterday to bring Rose to l headquarters. went to MT. Dougher- tvs office late today and was closet ed with the deputy commissioner and Inspector Hughes for long time. An other man, known as Jack Rose Suiliyan. and four others, soon join ed deputy Commissioner Dougherty and Sam Paul They were all closeted together for couple of hours.
 Red Car First Used.
 It was known that Sullivan, in his talk with the deputy commissioner, had substantiated some statements of Lieutenant Becker of that officials movements on Monday night It was also understood that Mr Dougherty hoard that red automobile was first taken out on Monday night. It was also said that it was intended to do the Monday night '.job" with the aid | of this red automobile RlIt tha red car, after being in use that night from to Il p. m., was run up in front of Sharkey's place in Fourteenth street. where it blew out a tire. Ii was then given up and a telephone call was sent to the Cafe Boulevard for a machine.
 Mir. Dougherty said after his talk with the men that he believes the men who committed the murder are still in New York city.
 Were going to make three or fou1 good arrests right away. I am pretty sure" Mir. Dougherty said.
