TRANDOM SHOTS AT BIG GAMG DSCs eLL ATURALLY A HOMBARDMPNT OF INQUIRIES has been aimed at this department of above-ground knowledge in reference to the clumsy murder of Herman Rosenthal. The general trend of the letters that come my way 4a well as tho inquiries that are made personally leaves no escape from the belief that the public ts convinced that the killing of the luckiess Herman was framed betwoen a lot of tin-lorn, sure-thing gamblers and @ desperate element in the Yes- BuT Gee!

Three days ago Chase topped off his BY BOZEMAN BULGER, Department, driven to bay by thé revelations Rosenthal had made and to h ho was expected to add ati more surprising allegations, One of these letters, which in a great measure covers the ground taken by all of them, ts given herewith. It runs thusly: WURRA WURRA ine to time T have noticed that you make references to some of rious characters who figure in the tragedy of Herman Rosenthal, Most of those chaps have been frequenters of the boxing clutm, either ocoupying ring side seats or lounging on the outside fringe. Now, presuming that you are an observant man, do you belleve that those fello could conceive and execute such a crime without the connivance and assiet- ance of the police? Do you think those lowbrows could key themsetves up to such @ daring, althouxh coarse, killing as that which took place tn ti heart of the night life of New York unless they had the co-operation of he copa? I don't, Mr. Wurra, Of course I cannot prove it, but every one with whom [ come In contact belleves there was such @ pact. There are 1,200 persons, male and female, from childhood to three score and ten, where I am employed’ and every mortal one of them believes as I do, What's to It? Come across with @ solution. You usually call the turn, Yours for juatice, LITTLE OLD NEW YORKER. West One Hundred and Seventeenth street, New York, n't prove it, you say, Mr. Little Old, &c, Well, neither can T. Neither ‘voy so far apparently, But this I can say from my own observation. The murder of Herman Rosenthal WAS NOT @ surprive to me. The murder of ANYLODY falling foul of either of the gangs of gunmen now running your city of New York WOULD NOT BE A SURPRISE TO ME. The MURDER OF A SCORB OF MEN by any of both of these aggregations would not cause me to bat an eyelash because I know their ways and I know how little they care for human Iife or limb when {t comes to the point of wiping out somebody who menaces thelr liberty or who im: 2 vehicle to shut off the earnings that come from the cheater at cards or the woman of the pave. And those murderous parasites are nearly all amoared with that sort of pitch put on with the same brush, A entered {nto the conspiracy to kill Rosenthal I am very much tn the alr. In the first hullaballog over the crime the public saw nothing only the fact that Rosenthal was to have appeared before the Grand Jury on the day of the morning ho was shot down like @ mad dog. It was easy to piece together the association of Becker with the incident. Becker was around and about the while lights every night for months before. Therefore it wasn't surprising that, ha was in the neighborhood the might of tho Killing. But Becker would never have planned such a “removal as that. He knew Rosenthal’s home was in Forty-fitth atreet. He had visited tt very frequently and had raided it after he and Rosenthal broke away. It ts the kind of street on the particular Nock tn which Rosenthal lived that would be an {deal place to kill a man, There are few Houses in that block Where night or morning prayers aro said, Men or women who frequent It are largely of the stamp of those who wauld not be seriously disturbed by seeing @ man shot down before thelr eyes.
