The last word for and against the gunmen, charged with the actual shooting to death of Herman Rosenthal in front of the Metropole Hotel on the morning of July 16 last, was said to-day to the Jury before Jus- tice Goff in Extraordinary Term of the Supreme Court in six hours of oratory, three each for prosecution and defence, and to-morrow Justice Goff will charge the Jury concerning the proper interpretation of the law and evidence, whereupon the fate of “Gyp the Blood,” “Lefty” Louie, “Whitey” Lewis and “Dago” Frank will rest within the discretion of twelve men.
