OWNER OF AUTO ARRESTED Wan Held in Jail Said to Have Made Confession. ROSENTHAL'S FEAR POLICE District Attorney Says Victim Was About to Give Further Testimony Concerning Collusion Between Department and Gamesters. NEW YORK, July 1. Through the alleged confession of a man under ar rest, the police are believed to have possession of the names of seven men suspected of having- participated In the sensational killing- today of Herman Rosenthal, the gambler. Just as he was presumably about to make important additions to his recent disclosures ot alleged partnership between police of ficials and members of the gambling fraternity. Additional arrests are mo mentarily expected. According to District Attorney Whit man. Rosenthal was about to name gamblers who could corroborate his assertions regarding police collusion -with men of his calling. Threat Made Onenly. That such a raking up In gambling circles was not relished by men who might be involved was apparent. It de velops, from talk among members of the "inner circles," In the tenderloin, which began as soon as Rosenthal's purpose become known. Threats were made yesterday, it is said, that things would fare ill for Rosenthal if he pressed bis charges. "If Rosenthal does not quit within the next few days we will 'get him and "get" him for keeps." was a re mark of a member of a poker party at an East Side "Association" outing Sunday reported today- to District At torney Whitman by a man who said he iverheard it. .

It is alleged, of the auto mobile containing the party of men who hot the gambler, was one of the trio. The police say they are assured he was the driver of the motor car and have charged him with homicide. His partner in ownership of a garage. Wil- iam Shapiro, is another prisoner held as a material witness. So Is a man whose identity the police hide under the name of "John Doe," who was said to have been near the scene of the shooting. Instead of fearing harm at the hands of the gambling fraternity. Rosenthal's chief dread, it Is said, was police en mity because of his charges against a member of the force. Gambler la Fear of Police. "The police will "get me,' because they have a system of always putting important witnesses out of the way," Rosenthal is alleged to have said. "Better men than I have been put out of the way for daring to squeal on the police." Deputy Commissioner Dougherty as serted that eye witnesses to the mur der ot Rosenthal identified Llbby as one of the quintet who drove up In front of the hotel, and calling the .gambler from the lobby to the sidewalk, shot him down with a fusillade of bullets and then fled in the motor car. Rosen thal was shot five times in the head. Widow Accuses Police. Mrs. Sadie Rosenthal, widow of the gambler, in a declaration to District Attorney Whitman, put the assassina tion ot her husband squarely up to the police. She warned her husband that if he kept an appointment be would come to a violent end. She said she had a premonition a tragedy would fol low such a conference, and she named a police officer as one of the men who was to be present. At least two witnesses agreed that one or more of the men in the auto mobile were policemen. Rosenthal sprang suddenly into pub lic notice last Friday, when he hurled a bomb into police circles by filing affi davits charging that the police were in league with the gamblers all through New York and that every gambling house was being assessed a fixed sum for police protection. Rosenthal's Place Closed. Rosenthal has been for some time, he explained, the proprietor of a gam bling establishment in West Forty-fifth street, which was closed on April 15. after a raid by Police Lieutenant Beck er, head of the so-called "strong arm squad." This raid. Rosenthal declared, fol lowed a misunderstanding between him self and Becker. Becker, Rosenthal al leged, was his partner in the profits of the establishment Specifically. Rosenthal's affidavits charged that Lieutenant Becker had lent him 11500 on a chattel mortgage on furniture In the Forty-fifth street house, as a share in the gambling busi ness done on those premises, and that Becker's share amounted to IS per (Concluded oa Pas 3- District Forecaster Announces To day Will Be Fair With Con tinned Warm Weather.

H. Han ford, witness was given an oppor tunity to buy a salmon-can topper in vented by the Judge. Witness said he had not seen the invention and felt sure It was of no value, yet he was tempted to enter into negotiations for the reason that he felt it would be to his advantage to do so. ' The Alaska Packers' Association, owners of patents on certain salmon canning machinery, had sued witness in Judge Hanford's court, alleging that witness had infringed six patents. The litigation extended over seven months, witness said, and during that time full slzed working machines of both plain tiff and defendant were in the posses sion of the Judge Infringement Is Decision. Judge Hanford decided that three of the Burpee devices infringed patents of the plaintiff, and on appeal the Cir cuit Court decided that four patents had been infringed. Nothing remained but the award by Judge Hanford of the amount of damages against the Burpee Company. At this time, Burpee testi fied that his own counsel, Evan S. Mc Cord, informed him that Judge Han ford, while studying cannery machinery during the trial had hit upon a dif fnrent wav of canning salmon, a meth od that did not infringe those of plain tiff and defendant. Jurlee Hanford wished to see Burpei about the Invention, witness testified McCord told him. Witness testified that he agreed to a meeting, and Mc fnrrl nromised to arrange it. Later nrltness said. McCord talked with him about the invention, and, reading from a paper which seemed to come trom (Concluded on BareSO Excess of Outgoing Over Incoming Business Noteworthy Free Entries Run High.

FIRST STING IS WITHDRAWN All Democrats, but Only Six Republicans, Vote Aye. BOOK BY WILSON QUOTED Borah Reads From Writings of New Jersey Governor Declaring Pres tige of Presidential Office Is Waning. WASHINGTON, July 16. The Senate Indireetly today rebuked President Taft for his course in connection with the Lorimer case. Once blocked from a vote by the Archbald Impeachment proceedings, a resolution, battle-scarred In a protracted, bitter debate, finally was adopted, 35 to 23, denouncing "any attempt on the part of a President to exercise the power of his office to in fluence a vote on a question within the Senate's exclusive Jurisdiction." The resolution originally was framed by Senator Bailey, who had arraigned President Taft, asserting he had been "officious and meddlesome" In endeav oring to line up regular Republican Senators in the Lorimer case, and as adopted read: "Resolved, That any attempt on the part of a President of the United States to exercise the powers and in fluence of his great office for the pur pose of controlling the vote of any Senator upon a question Involving a right to a seat in the Senate, or upon any other matter within the exclusive Jurisdiction of the Senate, would vio late the spirit if not the letter of the Constitution and Invade the rights of the Senate." Six Republicans Vote Aye. Not a Democrat voted against tin resolution; but six Republicans voted for it. Republicans who voted for it were Senators Bourne, Clapp, Fell, Gal linger. McCumber and Works. Demo crats who voted for the resolution were Ashurst, Bacon, Bailey, Bryan, Chamberlain, Culberson, Fletcner, Gard ner, - Hitchcock, Johnson, Johnston, Martin, Martine, Newlands, O'Gorman, Overman, Percy, Pomerene, Reed, Shively, Simmons, Smith of Arizona, Smith of Georgia, Smith of Maryland, Smith of South Carolina, Stone, Swan son, Thornton and Tillman. Those Republicans who voted against the resolution were Borah, Brandegee, Bristow, Burnhara, Burton, Catron, Crawford. Cummins, Dupont, Gronna, Jones, Kenyon, Massey, McLean, Nel son, Oliver, Page, Perkins, Root, Smith of Michigan, Smoot, Sutherland and Townsend. Personal Character Modified. Senator Bailey, who Introduced the resolution, denounced the course ot President Taft as described tn a letter the President wrote to Colonel Roose velt on January 6, 1910, which the President made public in a recent speech in the Massachusetts primary. The original resolution was directed at Presidential influence of votes on the right of Senators to retain their seats. When Senator Bailey concluded he ac cepted an amendment offered by Sena tor McCumber striking out words of condemnation from the resolution and extending It to other matters within the exclusive jurisdiction of the Senate. He also accepted an amendment by Senator Heyburn, to insert the word would," so as to make the resolution more impersonal. Taft la Defended. The vote was demanded and for an instant it appeared that the resolution as amended would pass unanimously. At this moment William Alden Smith took the floor to declare the President had done nothing improper, and that it was impossible to disconnect Senator Bailey's argument from the resolutions. 'Strike out the argument," then Bug- , gested Senator Bailey. 'Some of it ought to be and some ot it may be after consideration," shouted the Michigan Senator. Senator Cummins wanted the resolu tion amended so as to also apply to the use of the office to influence votes for or against a bill. He said people would imply by this omission that such a practice was approved by the Senate. He spoke of reports that President? had warned Senators if they did not vote in a certain way they would be considered out of the party. Cummins Asks for Harmony. Senator Smith, of Michigan, demanded that the Senator from Iowa be more specific 'I make the assertion that sucn nas occurred," said Mr. Cummins, "and in the interest of party harmony, I trust that the Senator will allow the Incident to be forgotten as fast as the human memory will permit." Senator Borah suggested to the Senate that be had heard that the legislative branch of the Government was Intruding on the executive, and thereupon read at length from Wood-, row Wilson's book on "Congressional Government." In that the author spoke of the prestige of the Presi dential office having declined and of Congress as being a big meeting of idle people who had taken power from the executive.
