Suspects Arrested To-Dayat Auburn and Camden as Two Fugitives Are . Released. Acting on authentic clues that “Lefty Louie” Rosenberg and “Gyp thte Blood” Horowitz are hiding in Sullivan County in the Catskill j Mountains, Inspector Hughes has left for that locality to take personal charge of a squad of thirty Headquarters detectives engaged in the search There is a confident feeling among the heads of the \for the fugitives. } will be rounded up before Monday, Aided by the local authorities, the New York detectives are going through every mountaity resort with a fine-toothed comb. The trail of \ prints, “Lefty Louie” from this city to Sullivan or Orange County is said to ibe quite fresh, | The fear that persons interested in putting them out of the way might smuggle poison into their food has prompted “Jack” Rose, | “Bridgie” Webber and Harry Vallon to refuse to eat anything taken to j them in the West Side Court prison that is not delivered by persons in | whom they have the utmost confidence. For the past two days the | three informers have eaten only food given to them by their wives or Bother relatives, Previously their meals had been sent in from a Broadway hotel, | Following some mysterious tip, they announced that they were sus j Picious of anything eatable coming from sources « itside their families. Webber's wife and Vallon’s wife carry their meals to the pnson. Rose’s meals are furnished by his brothers. All the food is bia by women members of the families of the prisoners. PRECAUTIONS AGAINST SMUGGLED WEAPONS. The precautions taken by the informers against poison are no more rigorous than the precautions taken by the authorities against the in- troduction of anything in the way of weapons which might be used in escape or suicide. By direction of Deputy Commissioner of Correc- tions Wright, everything that reaches any of the suspects under arrest in the Rosenthal case is thoroughly inspected before delivery. A despatch from Auburn, N. Y,, states that a man arrested here this morning under suspicion of being “Lefty Louie” or “Gyp the Blood” bas been released, Another suspect has been released at Camden, N. J. Police chiefs and sheriffs all over the East are sending in alleged information as to the whereabouts of the fugitives, “Whitey” Lewis, the second suspect arrested, has caused considerable comment among the police by his talk of visits to San Francisco and other points in the Far West, Japan and the Philippines. Commissioner Waldo found to-day that “Whitey” served for a time in the United States Army under the name of Frank Sleden, and was dishonorably discharged in March, 1911, Jacob H. Schiff, Eugene A. Outerbridge, Eugene A, Philbin, Henry Moskowltz, Allan Robinson and Felix Adler have signed a call for a mass meeting !n Cooper Union at an early date to protest against conditions | which made possiyle the murder of Herman Rosenthal. The call ts betng clreulated for other signatures. . “GYP THE BLOOD” GOT LOAN TO GO AWAY. “Gyp the Blood” Horowitz was sven in Harlem Wednesday night, try- ing to borrow money for a “getaway.” He formerly Hved {In One Hundred and Fifteenth street near Lenox avenue, and is well known in the neigh: borhood, On Wednesday evening he appeared tn One Hundred and Fifteenth street looking for friends, He was seen later at One Hundred and Sixteenth jstreet and Lenox avenue, talking to some chauffeurs, The police have |learned that Horowitz got some money and sald he was going to get out of town, Nevertheless, the neighborhood ts thoroughly covered by Central Office men !n all sorts of disguises to-day, A revolver which is destined to play an important part in the trial of “Lefty Loule’ for murder, if he ts caught, is in the possession of the It is believed to be the weapon with which Herman Rosenthal wos killed Detectives on “Lefty Louie's” trail found his trunk a week ago, In ‘the trunk was the group photograph of Lewis, “Gyp the Blood,” “Lefty Loule,” “Dago ank” Cirofiel and @ gangster called “Kiddy Second,” taken at Rockaway Beach July 10, Two were found.
