SALARY RUSE FAILS;
GIRL TAKES POISON
Unable to Save Money to Make
Up Increase She Told Mother
She Had Received.

Unable to continue to act the lie. as
she had been doing for several weeks.
Anna Gallant, seventeen, of 374 Sew
enth Avenue, took iodine last night
while in Central Park. She was taken
to Flower Hospital and charged with
attempted suicide.
Some time ago Anna, who is en-
ployed as an errand girl by Revillon
Freres, the furriers, announced to her
mother that her salary had been raised
50 a week. She did this to satisfy the
chidings Of the parent, although she
had received no increase.
She told the police last night that
she denied herself many privileges so
that she could bring back her wages
with the additional sum each week.
Yesterday she found that she would
not have the money, and with the small
amount she had saved purchased a
bottle Of iodine. She will probably re-
cover.

When Rosenthal, blamed by the gum
men for Zelig's arrest, appeared, Harry
WALTON, who, it is alleged, was befuddled
with drink, is said to have lost his head
and began TO shoot. Some of the
others joined in the fusilade, and the

is said to have paid the gunner the

kept $4,000 himself.

came to Commissioner Waldo were
pooh-poohed by the big Fellow" it is
said
Becker finally became convinced, how
ever. that Sullivan could not stihe the
complaints, and told him that Rosenthal
must be raided. Sullivan is reported TO
have told him to go ahead, that he
would make it right" downtown. 1t
was that raid, in Becker's opinion, that
started the trouble which ended in
Rosenthal's death.

secretary. learned of the Becker state.

Peckcr either issued or authorized that

Jack Rose $4,000 or any other sum. He
did not try TO bribe Rosenthal at any
time or attempt to keep him from tell

Attorney. Senator Sullivan was not in

DRAWS POLICEMEN
Victim of Flag Incident and His
Defender Arrested for Lack
of Permit.

A righteous din resounded through
Longacre Square last night and brought
the police. They found Thomas Mel
son, an evangelist. preaching from a
platform about twenty feet west OF
Broadway on Fortyrseventh Street.
On the corner of Broadway and
Forty-seventh Street a young man, de-
scribing himself as a representative of
the Bureau of Hyeienic Education, de-
nounced white slavers.
The opponent of white slavers had
the larger audience, and the policemen
went to him first. He displayed per-
nit to speak at that place. Nelson
was not so fortunate. He had no per-
nit. At sight of the bluecoats on the
evangelist's platform William P. Will
Jams. one of the crowd. shouted:
you cannot arrest this man. He is
preaching the gospel"
The policemen arrested Nelson.
Then they arrested Williams. In the
night court they were discharged.
Nelson a few nights ago was attacked
by one of his audience, who objected
to the display Of the American flag on
his platform.
