BECKER “HAD THE GOODS,” HE SAYS, ON ROSENTHAL olice Lieutenant Asserts He Had Obtained Damaging Statement From Dead Gambler's Wife and Would Have Been Cleared To-Day. * Lfeut. Becker spent several hours about the scene of the murder to- going frequently to the West Forty-seventh street station, He sald D leaving for Headquarters: “The death of Rosenthal at this time 1s most unfortunate. To- day would have cleared up most of the charges against the police, In three days everything will be explained awa! “The whole thing was a piece of spite work. My superiors are not worrying me. The meeting with me at the Elks Club described by Rosenthal was true, most unfortuiMtely. But that was not the first place I met him. The first time was at a ball and he stuck to me 80 close I could not get rid of him and had to leave much sooner than I expected.” Becker said he did not like to say anything against Rosenthal, now that he was dead, but that he had a 1,500 word affidavit signed yesterday by a former wife of the dead man at No. 151 East Twenty- seventh streot. She is Mrs. Dora Gilbert, and her statement, Becker said, is very damaging to Rosenthal. “GAMBLING KING'S” MURDER Rosenthal Played With Fate Once Too Often, After Successfully Defying for Years Revenge of Gamesters and Attacks of Police Raiders.
