a Confession in Rosen-
thai Case.
HAVE OWNER OF YHB AUTO
Gambler Was Shot to Death by
One of Its Occupants
ternity Had Threatened
to Kill Him.

New York. July 16.-Through the al
legged confession of a man under arrest,
tho names of seven men are believed to
be in the hands of the police tonight
as participants in the sensational killing
early to-day of Herman Rosenthal, the
gambler just as he was pres Nnably
about to make important additions to his
recent disclosure of alleged partnership
between high police officials and mem-
bers of the gambling fraternity. AS
result OF the new material in the hands
OF the officials, additional arrests are
expected to follow tonight or to-mor-
row.
According to District Attorney Whit
man, Rosenthal was about to name
gamblers who would be able to CORRIDOR
ate his assertions regarding police col
fusion with men of his law banned call
Ing.
That such raking up in gambling cir
cles and spreading OF the scope Of Rosen-
thai charges was not relished by men
who might come to be involved, was APP
parent, It develops, from talk among
members of Inner circles in the Ten
derloin which began as soon as word OF
Rosenthars purpose was passed along.
Threats were made yesterday, 1t Is de-
clared, that things would fare Ill for
Rosenthal If he continued to press his
charges.
"1f Rosenthal doesn't quit within
the next few days, we will get him
and get him for keeps" was a remark
of member Of a poker party on an
East Side association outing Sum-
day. reported by a man who declares
he overheard 1t, to District Attorney
Whitman this afternoon.
AUTO OWNER ARRESTED.
Up TO a late hour the police had
given no inkling OF the man in GUS
tody who had made the alleged con-
fession. During the day three men
were arrested in connection with the
murder of Rosenthal. Louis Libbey,
part owner. it is alleged. of the auto
mobile containing the party of men
who n little more than an hour before
daylight were driven up in front Of the
Hotel Metropole and from which came
the volley of shots which stretched
the gambler dead on the sidewalk, was
one of the trio. The police declare
they are assured that he was the driv-
er of the motor car and they have
charged him with homicide. His part

NEW GARBAGE CONTRACT.
Aldermen to Receive bids and start
All over Again,

The board OF aldermen at an adjourned
special meeting Monday night haggled for
over an hour on the question of new
garbage contract and a proposed amend
ed garbage ordinance. AS a result, tho
city clerk has been authorized to ad-
yertise for bids for collecting the city's
garbage and tin cans and the bids must
be in the city clerks office not later
than July g. when another meeting viii
be held and the bids will be opened by
the board. assisted by the local board of
health.
The new ordinance considered by the
board Monday night Is modified version
of the former ordinance under which
THOMAS F. Conlon collected garbage. Its
principal feature is the elimination of
the provision which made 1t necessary
for householders to place garbage %,
tho ground floor. Under the amended
ordinance garbage may be placed with

THE JUDICIARY IN POLITICS..

NA7 HEN Governor Albeit was accused by his Republican OPP
WV ponents of building up a personal machine the Judiciary
was not included in the charge. Nobody asserted that
the judges appointed by Governor Albeit had been given their jobs
in view of their future political service for him. The traditions
of the State have always been strongly against the participation
of the judiciary in partisan politics and the rule has obtained with
judges TO hold aloof from party strife. Disregard of that rule is
now evident in the acts of certain judicial appointees of Governor
Wilson in various parts of the State. These judges are openly
interfering in Democratic party polite. in their sections to procure
the election of Wilson delegates TO the Baltimore convention. If
these Judges act of their own volition and only under a sense of
obligation to the appointing power, the fact is bad enough. If
their political activity is part of any agreement or DEAL the fact
has a worse aspect. There is much criticism, mostly unjust and
harmful. of courts and judges, and those who see fit to use their
judicial positions for political partisan purposes give color to the
criticism. The patronage of the Governor of the State has ever
been looked upon with distrust by the people, but there has been
no widespread demand for it's curtailment, because, until the pres
ent time. there was not a rank abuse of the prerogatve. When,
however, judges of the courts are drafted among the retainers of
an ambitious executive who has appointed them there is just reason
COR o%verhauing the system of State appointments to limit the
personal power as much as possible, at least in the selection of the
iudoes

RAVE apprehensions of a nationwide railroad strike may

have suddenly realized that there is another party. the great

in jeopardy than railroad capitalists and railroad labor and, in the
last ANALYSIS, having a more potential voice. Public sentiment has
reached the seat of government, too. and stirred up its stagnant
power to do something. There was little to choose between the
lofty uneoncern of the railroad managers and the obstinate and
uncompromising demands of the Brotherhood of Engineers. Both
took the ground that their quarrel was no affair of the public and
both assumed that the public would be a helpless victim of their
failure to come to terms. Now that mediation and arbitration have
been mutually agreed upon, compromise is in sight, and the
struggle that would have created a situation in this country prob
ably as serious as that in England in the coal strike has been
averted. But if government arbitration now, why not always, in

Praises American Press.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
One of the good results Of the Titanic
horror is the haste used in acquiring
lifeboats by the ship companies, which
now realize the manner In which the
White Star line was negligent. morally,
if not legally. The American press Is
responsible for this improvement. If
it's warnings of the past were listened
to the wholesale loss of life would not
have occurred.
1t is noticed in the papers that Eng
fish writer's are criticising our methods
used in the Senate investigation of the
crime. The writer's across the sea also
take an opportunity to condemn our
press for it's attitude in ''condemning
men before they are heard
Nothing can be said to alleviate the
anguish of the Titanic survivors who
left more than life behind them on the
doomed ship. Our press is fair to a
fault. The directors of the White Star
line, particularly Director ]. Bruce
Ismay, who saved himself from the Ii
tanic. should be subjected to a much
more severe grilling than is being
meted out to them. The Stars,
Morning and Evening. have been tell
ing of the steamship company's negli-
gence in words and pictures that leave
no room for doubt as to where the
blame belongs. True Americans in New
Jersey appreciate your efforts and your
publications are more popular thar
! ever. T. ALFRED MOORE.

HOW ENGLAND LOOKS AT II.

NV ATURALLY, people in England who feel that the Titanic
AM disaster should come under British jurisdiction, since
Britain rules the wave" and the Titanic was British owned
half resent the vigorous measures taken by our government to fix
the responsibility. The British Parliament has organized an in
yestigaton and it cannot we'll begin until that by the United States
Senate committee is concluded. But while the Titanic was British,
together with her officers and crew, the human freight she carried
was mostly American and that fact alone establishes American
jurisdiction. England has national susceptibiities that stick right
out in the comments of her newspapers on the Senate inquiry,
although horror at the catastrophe is as much felt in England as
here. but the national characteristic will assert itself and perhaps
even to the point of shielding Ismay.
