NEW YORK GANGSTERS RIDDLE
VICTIM WITH BULLETS
New York, April 29.-Almost at the
same moment as four former police
inspectors were being arraigned in
court, charged with grating and vice
protection eXtortion, the gangsters
whose outrages resulted in the inves-
tigation that caused the indictments
of the policemen claimed another vic
tim.
\ Jerry Mazda, known as Jerry, the
Lunchman, was shot and killed ON
41st street near Broadway. within
two blocks of the spot where Herman
Rosenthal was killed. Mazda dropped
with five bullets in his body
In contrast to the Rosenthar MUIR
der, when the assailants escaped, the
five men who fired on Mazda were ar
rested before they could get away.
No guns were found on the men, but
witnesses said they threw their weap-
ons away. Three revolvers were
found in a garbage can nearby.
Mazda had been accused by gang
sters of "squealing" to the district,
attorney. The five men arrested are
believed to belong to the notorious
Paul Kelly gang.
District Attorney Whitman, hand
ling the graft investigation which
grew out of the Rosenthal killing,
declared the four indicted inspectors
have profited by vice graft, and when
threatened with exposure bribed wit
nesses to leave the state.
George Sipp, former hotelkeeper,
will be the principal witness against
the ex-police officers. The state
claims Sipp was bribed to leave the
jurisdiction of the court during the
graft investigation.
Former Police Captain Walsh, who
confessed to grating, will be another
important witness.

An Amusing Cuss.

Apparently the new leader of Pennsyl.

is possible to fool all the people all the
time. Just at this precious moment A.
Mitchell Palmer, keeper of the Demo
cratic mess chest for his State, is thrilling
himself and his immediate followers with
the assurance that at an uprising of five
or six Democratic Congressman from this
material for the Democratic nomination
for Governor.
Mr.. Palmer then talks glowingly of the
people, their trust in honest men, and
finally concludes with the boost that he
will give most careful thought to the
demands he believes have been made up
on him by his colleagues in Congress.
There is something positively cheerful
about Mr.. Palmer's confidence. He is
really childlike in that confidence. He
would make the whole State believe that
gressmen who must go to him for every
Federal favor coming to this State, is q
command from all the people.
An immense lot OF people in Pennsyl-
vsnis are just now chewing at the bitter
root of Democratic policies, and likely
they are amused at the sublime con-
