The constitution provides that "all

To Stop the Brutal Bullies.
By U .ited Press.

New ORLEANS, Sept. Is. Sport
ing circles were greatly excited last
night by a report that the grand
jury would endeavor to stop the
Mccarthy arren fight before the
Olympic club next Tuesday night.
The State law permits glove con-
tests before regularly chartered
clubs, but it seems the present grand
jury, which is a very moral one, is
endeavoring to get around it. High
police officials Lave been before the
jury and it has closely examined the
laws of the subject. The outlook
is that the jury will make its report
to-day, and it is expected will call
upon the police to stop the coming
fight.
