NT WATERED OREGON, FRIDAY, AliaiJST 2, 10J2 WHITEY LEWIS CLAIMS ALIBI E Suspect Accused of Being One of Four Rosenthal Assassins Being Sweated by Police Commissioner Waldo Wakes Up 4 Whitman Will Mot Press Graft Charges Urttil Gambler's Murder Mystery In Untangled NEW YOltK, Aug. 2 Charged with being ono of the four assassins who slew, (Inmbler Herman Rosen thal In front of the New Mctropolo Hotel hero on the morning of July 1C, "Whlley Lewis," whoso real name Is Frank Bledcnahue. Is being sweated today by Deputy Police Com missioner Dougherty as to his knowl edge of the crime which has con vulsed New York. "Lowls" Is tho second of tho al leged assassins raptured. "Dago Frank" Clroflcl was first. "Lefty Louie" (Loulso Itowisewelg) and Harry Horrowltx (Oyp tho Blood), tho other two who are alleged to havo killed Rosenthal at tlio com mand of Police Llmitennnt Charles Becker, are still at large. Tho polico declare both of them were with "Lowla" near Flelschmann, N. Y.. whero he was captured Inst night, and that they are sure soon to be taken. Waldo Wakci Up Stirred by tho widespread criticism of tho DOltco bIhco the Rosenthal mur der and by tho declaration of District Attorney Whltmon that If ho wishes to rehabilitate theredlt of tbo force ho will catch Rosenthal's slayers. Commissioner Rhlnelandor Waldo sent out a general order today to his 10,000 men. and specifically stated to his Inspectors, that Horrowltz and Rosenscwelg must bo caught at onco.

Reports that "Dago Frank" Clro flcl, tho enptured thug, had con fessed to Whitman were denied to day. "Whltoy Lowls," tho latest capture, when taken, also doclarcd that ho was not In New York tho night Rosenthal was killed, and so far tho caso of Whitman rests large ly on tho tho eonfesslona of Rose, Webbor and Vallon, who havo Impli cated Becker and tho gangsters taken and sought as tho actual movors In tho crime.

This ladder will tnatfo two fliV ways at the dam and provide an easy way for tho flah to got above the obstruction and end for all time the volume of protests that has poured Into the commission for years. The California-Oregon Power Co., present owners of the power plants, have agreed to construct the ladder under supervision of the state au thorities, but submitted another pro position namely tho raising of the dam at the south Bide to force the current over the north face of the dam. and thus avoid a second ladder.
