ROSENBERG'SS FRIENDS
COME TO HIS ASSISTANCE
Many Willing To Swear That
Alleged White SLAYER Has
Good Reputation
T.. A. CLA,Cf

Whether Isadore Rosenberg acted
In good faith when he wrote his
sweetheart, Bessie Nathan, of Provi-
dence, r. l., to join him In this city
and become his wife was difficult TO
determine from the testimony intro
duced at Rosenberg's hearing before
U. S. Commissioner Jared w. Fin

of violating the white slave law. On
this point the entire case hinges, and
1t will be no easy task for the COM
missioner TO come to a decision I'M
less more positive testimony Is in
troduced than has been forthcoming
thus far.
The case attracted considerable at
tention in the federal building. In
the court room were several young
men and women, friends of the de-
PENDANT, who are ready to swear to
his good reputation. Ii was whisper
ed around the court that the girl to
whom he has become engaged since
his break with Bessie and will mar
ry when he gets out of the present
trouble, was among those In attend
ance.
Rosenberg's letters to Bessie. as
read into the record by l.. Schachter,
VINO had written them at Rosenberg
diciation, had ring of sincerity. Mr..
Schachter testified that Rosenberg
had explained TO him that he was
lonely and wanted To get married. 1t
was suggested that he might find q
girl right here in Detroit, but Rosen-
beig's preference was for Bessie, TO
whom he was engaged, he told his
friends. So Mr.. Schachter consented
TO write the letters and, under the
mans direction, he always put In
plenty OF love and kisses.
In one letter, Rosenberg said:
Il hope We make good living and
that you'll be a good wife
In another he sought 10 allay fears
she seemed to entertain as to his
good intentions.

wrote. II will keep my promise.
