Immunity Was Conditional.

When Eallon was granted immunity
District Attorney Whitman stipulated
that if it was subsequently shown that
he had actually fired upon Rosenthal
the immunity should no longer hold
and he must face trial for murder in the
first degree Mr.. Whitman called atten-
ton to the provision of this agreement to-
day when commenting on "Dago Franks
confession.
Becker. from his cell in the Tombs
prison, refuses TO discuss the execution
of the four gunner or to comment on
the confession of Cirofici. Another name
brought into the Rosenthal case by an
unofficial report of "Dago Franks con-
fession is that Of Dollar john LANCER
The report made Cirofici say that the
gunmen went to Rockaway to do up
LANCER" before the murder of Rosenthal
LANCER, who was a personal friend of
the murdered gambler. said that he did
not know the gunmen were after him until
the day following the murder of Rosen-
thai. He could not recall whether he
was at Rockaway on the day the gun
men went there to meet him. Lanser's s
name is said to have been mentioned to
District Attorney Whitman by Rosenthal
as one of the men who could corroborate
his statements concerning Becker's al
legged graft oDerationS from gamblers.

Not Taken Under Oath.

was not taken under oath. and besides,
so far as 1 know. it has never been
charged that Becker dealt directly with
these men,
| Warden Clancy was asked if Cirofici
volunteered the information about Beck
| er or had been asked about 1t.
He spoke of Becker while l was out
| of the room,'' Clancy replied. When |
returned the others called my attention
| to it, saying it was the most important
| of all Frank had said. ! then asked him
TO repeat what he had said about Beck
err
Supt. Riley said there was no written
confession by Cirofc the written state
ment made by him to the superintendent
last Friday being merely an account OF
his actions at the time of the murder 10
prove alibi.
..He had not decided to make a con-
fession then" said Mr.. Riley. .Dago
Frank and Whitley Lewis had previ-
ously deluded themselves into believing
that they We're innocent because they had
AS for the other two. they never said
they We're innocent. They merely said
the evidence should not have been held
sufficient to have convicted them.
Asked If "Dago Frank went into de-
tails concerning what he called "a gam
bler's fight Warden Clancy said he
told Of several instances of where bombs
were placed in doorways and gambling
places were shot up.
To Do Up "Dollar John"
Cirofici said on the day before Rosen-
thai was shot he Whitley Lewis !"
Lefty Louie and ''Gyp the Blood got
orders from Jack Rose and "Bridgie''
Webber to take a trip to Far Rockaway
and do up Dollar John" whom Rosen-
thai, then in communication with Whit
man, had mentioned as a witness who
could back up his testimony regarding g
Becker
Dollar john Cirohci said, was de-
scribed to the gunnen as a "squealer."
He was to be put out of the way before
Rosenthal could again get the district at
torneys ear with charges against the
police lieutenant
When he and the boys got to Far
Rockaway, Cirotici said. they found DOL
lar surrounded by his bunch" As a
result, the killing was called off, and
after spending the day at the seashore
the gunrnen returned to New York.
They split up at the Continental Hotel,
at 76 Cd avenue. ''Dago Frank" contin-
ued, and he went to Harlem to see Jean

him in the Gay Paree class all right.
His density concerning the love
affairs of his sister Nora was amaz-
ing.
Mala Manners was Mora Des-
mond," one of Jacks sister, and
between helping Esmeralda get the
man she wanted, and arousing Mr..
Estabrook's interest, she was kept
more than busy. Several of the
young men held themselves in readi-
ness to take Cecil Wright's place in
case he got tired of playing Mr..
Estabrook, but he seemed to
actually enjoy it. Nora and Esta-
brook came very near out-starring
the stars for awhile, and their act
ing was very good.
Gladys Lopez was Kate Des-
mond," Jacks sister, also, and she
did some clever work, from an act
ing standpoint, when she was wait
ing to be recognized by Estabrook,
after he had first recognized Nora.
Her eager but disguised expression
at his delay in knowing her, in COM
parison with her sister, would have
