with threatening to kill Mrs Evelyn
Rosenberg in a Broadway restaurant,
was discharged by Magistrate Deuel. in

hearing both sides of the rather COM
plicated story of their former rela-
tons the court decided that Ramos
was no more to blame than the woman.
Mrs. Rosenberg is the wife of
Samuel Rosenberg, a lace importer, and
lives at the Hotel Claridge. Dressed
in fashionable blue serge suit, with n
white fur thrown across her shoulders
ana wearing a many colored straw hat,
she told her story in voice so low
that the magistrate asked her several
times to speak louder.
Since her marriage on February o.,
she said, Ramos had made several un-
successful attempts to make appoint
ments with her. On the afternoon of
July % she saw him at Times Square
IN an automobile, and he told her he
had a letter from her mother which
nc would not give her unless she ac-
companied him to a restaurant.

Mrs. Rosenberg admitted having sent
to Ramos. One asked him to send her

a "spat with her husband" Another
asked him TO meet her in Chicago She
also admitted that Ramos met her on
her arrival in New York, and while she
was at the Ansonia gave ner $3.50. The

fed that Mrs. Rosenberg had been

The feeling among the prisoners was
openly bitter yesterday against Os-
borne's enemies. In the chapel, while
Osborne was reviewing the findings OF
the convict court, one of them told n
reporter that if the warden was forced
out there would be trouble for those
among the keepers and prisoners re-
sponsble for his downfall. 1--WE will

When the warden was asked if he ex-
pected any trouble if he should leave.
he said he thought the men could take
car, of the situation themselves, and
did not expect revolt.
Two prison employees reiterated the
statement yesterday that Osborne, in
his address to the men in the mess hall,
had said just the things attributed to
him in the papers yesterday morning.
They said, furthermore, that he was
cautioning the inmates not to start any
revolt, which proved TO them, they said,
that he expected to get out.
