Was Given Just Before He Saw senthal at Metropole. ARREST “JACK” SULLIVAN, WHO WAS WITH BECKER. Aldermen Move to Force Mayor to Begin Investigation of Graft Charges Agzinst Police. That a man stepped out of the Metropole Hotel a few minutes before moned by signal the four assassins from the shadow of buildings nearby, hand to his temple in the manner of pointing a revolver, and thus sum- moned by signal the four assassins from the shadow of buildings nearby was the story told this afternoon by a new witness in the examination of “Bridgie” Webber, accused of complicity in the murder. On the evi- dence adduced to-day before Coroner Feinberg, sitting as a Magistrate Webber was held without bail to await the inquest, which was set for | Aug. 15, The witness, Charles Krese, a waiter, who had been kept under cover by the police, proved a staggering surprise to the Webber defense. He swore that he saw Webber running away after the shooting, and he picked Webber out of the crowded courtroom, although he had seen him but once in his life and that occasion, he said, was at the time Rosenthal BECKER’S FRIEND SULLIVAN AGAIN ARRESTED. In addition to giving a clear ount of the murder, which he wit- nessed from across the street, reciting the circumstances under which the death signal was given and telling of seeing Webber run away, Krese wound up his afiernoon in court in a sensationnal manner by causing the arrest, on a charge of complicity in the murder of Rosenthal, of “Jack” Sullivan, whose right name is Jacob Reich, the bosom friend of Lieut. Becker i Syllivan, “the newsboy friend,” was arrested a few days ago as a| material witness and held in $100 bail, which he furnished. He said that he rode uptown with Becker from Park Row, left the Becker automobile | at Forty-second street and Broadway, walked to “Bridgie’ Webber's poker room and from there to a soda water fountain in Broadway, where he was| taking a drink when he heard the shots that killed Rosenthal. After Harford Marshall, counsel for Webber, had vainly tried to shake Krese’s testimony on cross-examination, the witness was taken from the courtroom to an anteroom by Inspector Hughes and Detective Wilber, He} Assassins Shoot Down Ro- | SIGNAL, THE oy in w THAW RDERS WALDO SER i ?

TEN DAYS have elapsed since Herman Rosenthal was assassinated before an assemblage of half a hundred persons in front of the Metropole Hotel and the men who committed the crime are STILL AT LARGE. Here is a copy of a letter sent by Police Commissioner Waldo to Mayor Gaynor yesterday: “July 25, 1912, “Sir: Lieut. Becker has been transferred from the squad of 450 men operating under my direction in the suppression of gambling to ordinary police duty in the Sixty-third precinct, his conduct being in question and under investigation. “| submit to you whether he should be suspended and put on trial, and, if so, what charges should be made against him. It will be useless to suspend him and put him on trial unless there is sufficient evidence to rant his conviction and dismissal. “Very respectfully, =.
