QUESTIONED AS
PAYMASTER OF
BAFF GUNMEN
Young Bartender Believed to
Have Told Whitman of
$5,000 Fund.
NEW WITNESS SAYS HE
CAN IDENTIFY SLAYERS
"If we continue to make such progress
as we hive mnde In the last twenty-four
hours we will have complete evidence In
the Haft murder case by next Monday
night."
ThH statement was made In behalf of
District Attorney Whitman yesterday by
Assistant District Attorney Delehanty. It
came Just after Mr. Whitman had brought
to an end another heart to heart talk
with Carl Itcttlch, the young Ilohoken
bartender upon whose testimony han?-
the fate of two men now under nrret
whn atr believed to have left with him
the money for which Harnett H.MT wns I
killed In West WashlnRton Market on
November 2t. Kmll Itcttlch. the young
man's father, wan closeted with the bar
tender and Mr. Whitman and unfed youns
Itettich to tell everything; he knew.
Younir Itettich has been brouRht to tho
point where he admits that he known
something about the crime. The ques
tion now Is whether he will so testify In
the Ornnd Jury room.
One of the things believed to have been
disclosed by Itettich, at least In part, W
that a fund of money was raised among
the poultryymen In West Washington
Market prior to the murder and that It
wan distributed after the crime. As tn
the amount of tho fund Inquire were
told that Information on the point would
be laid before the Grand Jury next Mon-
day and that the amount of money paid
to the gunmen would also be disclosed at
that time. It Is not denied that the fund
waa of more than $5,000. Of this amount
onl $250 Is said to have been paid to
the men who did the killing.
An eyewitness of tho murder, located
by the police, was taken before Mr. Whit
man yesterday. He told the District
Attorney that he could Identify the gun-
men. Whether or not ho saw the gun-1.
men previous to the murder or whether n
knows them personally could not ho
learned. On this point Mr. Delehanty '
waa uncommunicative. He also declined I
to give the name of this new witness on ,
the ground that his testimony would be
of such importance as to Justify the
secrecy,
William Simon, a wealthy poultry
dealer who has stores at 320 East 110th
atreet and 179 Ivewls street, was held
In $10,000 ball yesterday by Judge Ma
lone as a material witness. Simon was
at the District Attorney's olllco on Tues
day and Wednesday. Late Wednesday
night he was arrested and taken to the
House of Detention. Edward 'Drucker,
hla counsel, protested vehemently.
otiiivii irtinuu nun ttpimiriti irpeaurnj
avout me case aner ne naci been nailed
out. He said that his partner, Ixmls
Cohen, was a cousin of Barnett Rift and
that their relations with ItalT and his
eon Harry had always been pleasant up
to the time of the murder. After the
murder, he said, Harry Barf refused to
speak to him. From April to June nf
this year Simon was prenldent of tho
Lire Poultry Dealers Protective Associa
tion. He got out then, according to his
story, because he didn't agree with the
potlcy of Secretary Morso M. Frankel In
causing the arrest of poultrymen who
"sanded" chickens. He said he believed
there waa a better way of dealing with
that problem.
It wan understood that Simon wan to
be asked to tell what he knew of a
meeting of the association at whlrh
some one declared that Baft ought to be
killed. Mr. Simon said he knew nothing
of such an occurrence or of any con
nectlon of the association with tho mur
der. Late In the afternoon Mr. Dele
lisntv let It be known that developments
of the last two hours hod greatly dimin
ished the valuo of Simon's testimony.
But he and Simon Welnthal, weJghmas
ter for the Live Toultry Auction Com
pany, will be witnesses before the Grand
Jury next Monday.
Aa to the present state of the Inquiry
It Is learned that every recent develop
ment has confirmed Mr. Whitman In his
' original theory that this murder was the
result of a plot and that he now has In
custody the two men chlelly active In
having It carried out. There was more
of the air of confidence about the Dis
trict Attorney's offlce yesterday than
there had been In a week. The only ex
nlanatton forthcoming was that within
the last few hours unusual progress had
been made toward the solution of the
mystery.

The new play by Henry Arthur Junes,
"The Lie," produced last night nt the
Harris Theatre, was made tho occasion
for an ovation of unusual warmth to the
author and to the star, Miss Margaret
Illington. The company was composed
of many players well known In New York.
Each had his friends to cheer him along.
The audience was made up of many actors
and actresses also willing and ready to
lend encouragement to a worthy under
taking. This added to the general en
thusiasm or the occasion.
The play was not of tho kind that made
Henry Arthur Jons famous. Som"vherc
In the world there may bo human bolngs
who express their feelings -as do the men
and women of Mr. JonesN croatlon, but
U may be considered cause for general
ChrlstmaH cheer that they are not com
monly met with.
Tiro Amnslnir Sisters,
"The Lie" telle the story of two amazing
staters. Kllnore and f.KCM finale, who man
age to Involve themselves and every one
else In four acts of deep dark emotion,
which gives tho brunette M'.ss Illington
and the blond Mies Violet Iteming it
chance to act ns It must be presumed they

selves under the circumstances.

gets her Into "trouWe." which she takes

Later she succeeds In foisting off little
Trouble on her sister and by this means
raptures her sinter's rich lover. Some
years later sho comes home from Egypt
just In time for Sister to discover what
has been tho real reason for her lover's
defection. This gives Miss Illington a
chance for some tine up stngc-' emotion. In

Miss Hcmlng over n ch.ilr, chokes her for
a while and pulls down her hair.

Virtue Is triumphant In the end, but

The Shuberts have agiiln enlivened the
holiday season by Importing a company of
londun actors to appear In a musical com
edy of the kind associated with the Gaiety
Theatre. Somo of the actors were old
friends. Theso were Emmy Wehlen,
Georse Orossmlth, Mnurlce l'arko.i and
James Blakeley. There weie, hownver,
such newcomers as I-iurl de Krece, Davy
Buruaby and the young woman whoso title
begins with an "Ilon." and several names
further along ends aristocratically with
Montagu.
The piece In which this company was
seen is uuuKeiner tioih r-tl
acted even In 1ondon. MM. flrossmlth
and Lnurlllard brought It to this country
and after a while It may be carried bacK
to tho public for which it wns origina l)

Heart nnd "Pntasn and rerimuuer in
London had enabled them to embark on
tho enterprise which was launched at the
Shubcrt last night.
Fred Thompson, is named as the author .
of "To-Nlghfs the Night" and Paul Bu
bens wrote the music. There are two nets '
In the play and Its four scenes pass at (
Maidenhead, In the foyer of the Covent
Garden Opera House, In the market and I
In the flat of one of the characters a
girl, of course, and a member of tho com
pany of the Piccadilly Theatre.
The Intrigue proved to be the historic
old farce from the French, known hero
as "Pink Domlnos," acted already under
countless mimes at tho old I'nlon Square
Theatre and later by Charles WyndliAm
.ttr.ong the numejous representations the
piece has had. Marie Calilll played at tho
Liberty Theatre three years ago tn the
nneretta with music by the Inte Klchard
Heuberger which a Viennese librettist '
founded on this same farce, so there was
nothing to puzzle the audience In the Btory
of this sturdy old farce. If It was not
familiar from an acquaintance- with the
original piece It was known through the
liberal uso which subsequent authors have
made of It.
The Intrigue of the old farce served
is nti admirable skeleton for tho em
broidery of Mr. Thompson, whoever ho
may be, and the musical accompaniments
of Paul Itubens. Then there were the
usual polite Incidents of all these made.

EXTORTION ARRESTS
REVEAL KIDNAPPING
Italian Forced to Pay Tributo
After Wife Was Stolon
and Returned.
HELD BY WHITE SIAVERS
A kidnapping that had Its arnesle in a,
white slave case of seven months ago was
revealed last night when four men wero
arrested on the charge of attempting to
extort money from Giuseppe Llbertclla,
of 280 East 135th street, whows pretty
wife of 19 was onco the victim of white
slavers.
Seven months ago while the I.lbertellas
wero living In New Jersey she was kid
napped and taken to a house In Camden,
where she was kept fifteen days before
she managd to escape. One man was
arrested for that and on her testimony
was sent to prlon for five years. Then
she and her husband moved to their pres
ent home In The Bronx.
Scon after they had settled there a man
appeared who demanded $10 of Llbertella
with the alternative of his wife being
again kidnapped. Llbertella, who Is ft
plasterer, paid two or three times and
then, work being scarce, he refund. Last
Tuesday a man met him ai hn was going
down the stairs and threatening to blow
his head off If he did not follow made him
walk to the shoe repairing shop of Gio
vanni Spagnollo nt 300 East 13Tith street,
lie was kept there until Wednesday night,
when he was released on his promlne to
pay the money regularly.
Detective Hatto happened to he In the
houe where th" I.IWtellns live on
Wednesday and heard Mrs. Llbertella tell
ing neighbors of her husband's predica
ment. He persuaded her to tell the whole
story and last night when John De'dlon
olllrlo of 23S East 135th street nppeared
to get the money Batto, with Detectives
Deglllo and Bannano, was In the next
room.
Two marked bills were passed by Mrs.
Llbertella to IVdlonofllrlo and then Batto
ftenped out and am-sted him. On the
stairs they found Norflo ltello of 10
Willis avenue, whom Mrs. Llbertclla also
accused, and he was taken alone. Fnnc
nollo and VIncenzo Sesso of 319 East llild
street were arrested later.
Arrested on 3lnll Frntiil Chnrnr.
Charles I Cole, president of the Mc
Lallan Engraving Company of Chlcaso
and son-in-law of Circuit Court Judge
George Newman of Illinois, was arrested
hero by tho Federal authorities yesterday
on a charge of operating a mall fraud
In connection with a heat saving device.
He will be sent to Chicago for trial.
