FOUR GUNMEN DIE IN SING SING.
Murderers of Gambler Rosenthal i
Pay Death Penalty. ^
Sing Sing Prison, Ossining, N Y, ?
April 13:?The four gunmen connoted
of the murder of Herman
Rosenthal died in the electric chair
it Sing Sing prison at break of day
this morning. None confessed his
aruilt. Frank Seidenchner ("Whitey
Lewis") made a statement but he
lid not flatly assert his innocence.
"Gentlemen," he mumbled, as they
strapped him to the chair, "I did
aot shoot at Rosenthal. Them who
said I did was perjurers. For the
sake of justice, I say I did not. The
witness, Stannish?"
"Whitey" did not finish the sentence.
The strange harness had
oeen adjusted and the current threw
lis body forward in the chair. He
lad meant to say that Stannish, a
waiter and a witness at the murder
;rial, had lied, but death intervened.
Seidenschner was the second man
:o die. "Dago Frank" (Frank
Hirofici) came first. ' 'Gyp the Blood"
[Harry Horowitz) was third and !
'Lefty Louie" (Louis Rosenberg) i
ast.
In forty minutes flat all four were
iispatched. This time would have
peen shortened had it not been for
;he overcrowding of newspaper reporters.
Their numbers necessita?d
a shifting of witnesses for each
execution.
There was no untoward incident
;hroughout the procedure. All walked
quietly to the chair and only their
luaking knees and the sickly green
pallor of their faces attested that
he realization of death was upon
hem.
William E Cashin, Roman Catholic
haplain of the prison, accompanied
'Dago Frank" to the chair. With
'Whitey Lewis" and "Gyp the
Hood" was Rabbi Joseph Goldstein,
if New York. Rabbi Mayer Kopftein,
long the spiritual adviser of
he Rosenberg family, stood by
Lefty Louie." Friest and raDDi
.like averted their drawn faces from
he chair of death, struggling to
ontrol themselves as they intoned a'
irayer for the dying.
Monday, while the superintendent
f a cotton mill at Lexington, N C, i
i-as trying to settle a dispute beween
W T Childers and C L Rowe,!
mployes of the mill, Childers drew j
. gun and opened fire on Rowe,fired j
hree shots and then dropped dead. I
ieart failure brought on by excite- i
nent was given as the cause of
leath. Rowe was slightly wounded :
