When Dan made wup his mind to tell what he knew of the inside story of Herman Rosenthal's murder he confidéd firat in Mr. Jéhnsonm, Who ' was so impressed with his apparent sincerity that he thought best to have the story made into a formal statement. After three nights of la- borious ¢ompilation Dan's affidavit ‘was ready. typewritten pages. Dan has repeated his story at the ' prison to a representative of the New York Tribune.

Shortly after Rosenthal was shot, Dan said, he went to Mr. Whitman and told him of a conversatioh he had overheard beétween Webber ana Dollar John Langerman on thé way back from a Sam Paul association pic-" nic just before thé murder, in Juls, 1912, “If you string along with Herman” , Dan #aid he heard Webber threaten-~ | ing, “wé’ll take you the same way we'ré going to take him This was the first clew Mr. Whit. man had to the identity of the mun who were respongible for Rosenthal's death about three days after the pic, nie, according to Dan. At that time, he explained, Mr. Whitman promisea not to bring him into the case at all. That is the reason, he said, that hs was mot summoned as a witness al either Becker trial. Concocted at a Midnight Meeting. The story which finally sent Bocker to the dcath house at Sing Sing, Dan says, was concocted at a midnight meeting in Jack Rose’s cell in the Tombs not long nfter Herman Rosen- thal's murder. A keeper had been bribed to 16t Webber and Vallon con:s down from their cells in another tiar This is briefly the account of tha meeting as Dan swears Rose has told it to him, his only gonfidant, nol once, | but a dozén times. H Through & bank robber friend who was confined on the same ticf in the Tombs, Rose had learncd that Weh- ber and Valién were likely to “ruan out on him.” Gessip of the distri attorney’s office which drifted bac to the Tombs with prisoners who were taken over for examination con- firmed Rose’'s suspicions. Little by little hé became convinced that his two inmates were about to make “confessions’” clearing themselves and placing the blame all on him. Rose Convinced Them. “Oné night lack gave one of ihe screws (keepers) $10 to let Bridgie | and Harry came down ‘to his tier,” Dan said. “It was after midnigi Jack he puts it up to them straight— were they goin’ to run out on him? At firét they denied it, but Jack kept ' at them, and pretty soen they breke down and criéd and sald they'd theught about it. Jack had con- vinced them. “Rose has a way of convincing his { Was the only weapon I had, It ecovered twenty-{onr‘" ; this, story they’d tell and a few days later they made their squawk.” Dan was ssked why he gave Mr. Whitman the tip on who was respén- sible for Rosenthal's death. “Herman was my bee: friehid,” Dan answered, quietly. “Wouldn’t you do what you could te get somebody who'd croaked your best friend? Whitman I'd hive killed Webber myself, but I ain't no murderer. I'm not gaited that way. Rose Ignordnt Of Visit, “Rose don’t know to this day that 1 wenit to Whitman.

It was too laté to help thé gunmién then,” “Why are you telling this to save Becker now?” he was asked. “It's dot so mueh t 1 want to e him,” said Dan. “What in hell do I care about & cop, anyway?
