ROSE'S STORY BROKEN BY VALLON’S VERSION OF MURDER-GAR RIDE Trap Set for Alleged Bribe Collector When Gambler Held as Rosen- thal Slayer Admits He Was in Auto. VICTIM’S WIDOW NAMES WITNESSES OF GRAFTING. Town After Charges, She Says to Grand Jury. The first sign of weakness on the part of. the defense of the men. gambler, became apparent ent this afternoon, after Harry Vallon, one of the Suspects, held without bail on a charge of complicity in the Rosenthal murder, had made a statement to the police and the District-Attorney. Evidently Vallon’s statement was of great importance, for it stirred |the police and the District-Attorney’s force to immediate action, Vallon admitted that he was in the vicinity of the Metropole Hotel at the time of the murder; that he had previously been a passenger in the touring car | which conveyed+the assassins to and from the scene of the crime, and |that he was conversant with phases of the plot which the police had previously been unable to reach, | The assertions of Vallon were widely at variance with statements that have been made by Jack Rose, whose real name is Jacob Rosenzweig, \the man who, by his own admissions, hired the murder car from Shapiro, and Libby and rode in it from Fourteenth street to Harlem and back to; Forty-second street and Sixth avenue. The variations in the two state- ments were so important that the District-Attorney and Deputy Police Commissioner Dougherty determined to bring the two prisoners to- gether face to face and question them on their respective stories, LAWYER FOR ROSE FIGHTS EXAMINATION. | James M. Sullivan, counsel for Rose, was notified of the plan of ithe District-Attorney. Mr. Sullivan hurried to Mr. Whitman’s office and theld an excited conference with the District-Attorney and Inspector Hughes. Vallon’s statement was shown to him and it appeared to set jhim back, “He promptly announced that he would not allow his cilent jto face Vallon and undergo an examination, | The District-Attorney, satisfied with having for the first time a . statement from a man who admitted he was in the touring car which played such a prominent part in the assassination, demanded that Mr. | Sullivan pul the situation up to Rose. Mr, Sullivan hurried over to the !Tombs to hold a conference with his client. . Apparently the authorities were elated by the information secured through Vallon, While the details were suppressed, the fact that Rose | had been more deeply implicated in the plot was not hidden, | Rose, in his statements to the police, has said that Vallon was not in the gray assassination car in which the murderers escaped. Vallon admitted to-day that he was a passenger in that car during the time when Rose was running around town gathering up men who assembled in the vicinity of the Metropole when Rosenthal was killed. MUCH OF VALLON’S STORY SUPPRESSED, | How much further Vallon’s admission went than that he was in the car is kept secret. At any rate, as soon as Vallon had been arraigned be- fore Coromer Feinberg and held without bail on an attidavit submitted by Detective Wilber, the District-Attorney and Dougherty laid plans to bring the (wo prisoners face to face in Mr. Whitman’s office, In the course of a long examination before the Grand Jury to-day; under the direction of District-Attorney Whitman and Assistant Dis- trict-Attorney Moss, Mrs. Herman Rosenthal, widow of the murdered gambler, gave in detail all the knowledge in her possession concerning the charge of Rosenthal that certal police officers were sharing in the profits of Tenderloin gambling houses, The evidence presented by Mrs, Rosenthal proved to be of more importance than the District-Attorney had anticipated, reports current following the Grand Jury | according | session Mrs, Rosenthal was questioned at length regarding the relations bes tween her husband and Lieutenant of Police Charles A.
