It ls sald to be the belief of the Dis?

Charles G. F Wahle, chief counsel for
the four gunmen, sald yesterday that

I liases of the murder of Rosenthul
vhich did not develop at the Becker
trlal. Some sensatlonal developrnents
are promlsed.
Louia Libby, the former owner of
the gray "murder car," was closeted
with Mr. Wahle ln his offlce for two
houra yeeterday. The gunmen's coun?
sel put Libby through a severe exam
Inatlon, lt waa sald, evldently to find
