DEATH SENTENCE
IS PRONOUNCED
ON THE CUNMEN
Prisoners Show No Sign Of
Feeling as They Are Con-
demned to Die in Electric
Chair.

New York, Nov. 26.-Gyp the Blood,
Whitley Lewis, Lefty Louie and Dago
Frank, the gunmen convicted Of the
murder Of Herman Rosenthal, were to-
day sentenced by Justice Goff to die in
the electric chair at Sing Sing during
the week Of Jan. 6.
Each Of the prisoners was sentenced
separately and in each case Attorney
Wahle, their counsel. moved that the
verdict be set aside and the judgment
be arrested. Each motion Justice Goef
successfully denied. One of the
grounds for Mr.. Wahle's motion was
that the verdict was the result Of pas
sion, prejudice and other influence"
None Of the condemned men gave any
visible sign Of his feelings. All looked
stolidly ahead and each shook the hand
of Mr.. Wahle, as he was led away. ac-
companied by Sheriff Hamburger and
12 deputies. The four were forced
through big silent crowd outside the
criminal courts building, thrust into
the prison van and taken to the Grand
Central station to take the train for
Sing Sing, where, with Charles Becker,
former police lieuenant and condemn
ed as instigator of the crime, they will
await execution.

TOOK Wild LEAP
FROM 2OTHSTORY
Of SkYSCRAPER
Young Woman Possessed of
Idea That She Was Pur-
sued for Immoral Pur-
poses Ends Her Life.

Chicago. Nov. 26.-Possessed with
the Idea that she was pursued for dis
honorable purposes. Miss Maude Van
Dousen. % years old. leaped from the
twentieth story of the Mccormick
building and was crushed to death on
the stone paving Of an alley at the
street level. She jumped from a fire
escape nearly $50 feet above the ground
in view Of many pedestrians. Her
body struck another fire escape at the
way nearly every bone being broken.
Miss Van Dousen. according to
papers found in her pocketbook which
she carried down with her. was n
school teacher In Humboldt, Neb.
From her papers It appeared that she
had been seeking a position here and
had been obsessed with the idea that
she had been in danger from white
slavers. She wrote that she had been
driven to appeal for protection to
Chief Of Police McWeeney. to the fed
eral department Of justice and to So
cial settlement workers.
She had prepared for her death by
pinning across her bosom strip Of
white linen which had been stained
crimson at either end and on which she
had printed in large letters:
Death! Death before dlshonor."
She had tied around her neck copy
of the New Testament in which she
had marked passages in st. John. She
held her handbag in her hand as she
jumped and it was picked up near her
body. In 1t was another marked Bible
and typewriter statement of several
thousand words which she had entitled:
Part of my life's history"
II will die clean If l have to kill my
SELF" was written at the head Of one
Of the sheets.

Miss Van Dousen had been rooming

ORDERED
To- SIT WITH OTHERS
Judge Anderson Objects to
the Perpetual Smile on the
Face Of One of the Defend
ants While the Witness Is
Testifying.

indianapolis, Nov. 26.-Adhering to
the theory that the dynamiters who
have confessed alone were responsible
for the explosions. the defense at the
dynamite conspiracy trial continued the
cross examination of Ortie McManigal
today. Senator Kern piled McManigal
the dynamiter was kept as secluded
as possible on his trips.
Didn't Mcnamara tell you always to
see as few people as possible and did
not you receive your instructions from
Mcnamara alone?" asked Kern.
From Mcnamara and Hockin. Once
when Hockin instructed me told him
If 1 was caught we all would be
caught"
"But yon never got any Instructions
about jobs to be blown up from any
one except Mcnamara"
II said Mcnamara and Hockin.
Young in Boston talked to me about
doing work for the local union, but
told him 1 worked only for the inter-
national"
Olaf A. Tveitmoe of San Francisco
the defendant who has been sitting at
the counseIs table since the trial was
began, was ordered by Judge Anderson
to sit among the other defendants.
II notice there is perpetual smile
upon the fact of Defendant Tveitmoe
while the witness is being examined"
said Judge Anderson. II will not per-
NIT any demonstration whether by
smiling or otherwise"
Contention Of Defense
The contention of the defense that
the McNamaras and Ortie E. McMan-
igal, alone were responsible for ex-
plosions and that the ironworkers'
union executive board and President
Frank M. Ryan knew nothing of any
$1,000 expended from the union funds
for destroying non union property
were pursued in the cross-examination
of McManigal.
WAS the pay you received from the
McNamaras your motive in causing 80
many explosions?" asked Senator Kern.

Hockin, when he first started me into
the dynamiting business terrorized me.
saying If did not do it he would pre-
vent me from getting work. Then l
was prompted by foolish notion that
it was for the good of the ironworkers'
union. My mind was inflamed with the
idea that it would build UP the union."
