people Of New Jersey who were strongly
opposed to such legislation.
The bills, he said, struck blow az the
interests of the state materially. physically
and morally This was the death rrappIe
Of the gambling fraternity In New Jersey.
and he hoped the legislature would not
permit the state to be disgraced by the en-
actment Of such an odious law. Dean Me.
Nulty said that he conceded with DR..
kempshall, and that before gambling was
established on the Clifton track near his
city they had peaceful and upright young
men IN their midst; but now there were
wickedness, poverty and disgrace. He said
that Catholics were opposed to all sorts 81
gambling, especially that carried on al
race tracks.
Anthony Comstock said he knew all the
bookmakers by name. They had been
driven away from New York aud now
sought refuge in New Jersey. Nothing
was 50 dangerous to morality as gambling.
Whenever public gambling was tolerated
enforcement Of law was paralized and JUS
tice WAS stricken down He praised Judgr
Dickson, OF New Jersey, for his sentencins

Pnshing the Eillotts' Cases.

COLUMBUS, March "a special grand
jury has been impaneled to investigate the
Elliott-Osborn shooting tragedy. A large
number Of witnesses appeared before the
jury today. It is thought chat the selec-
tion Of jurymen is exceptionally fortunate
from the fact that Of the twenty names
drawn from the box twelve were the names
Of non-residents of the city, and they thus
will not likely be prejudieed. The charges
against the Elliotts will be taken up first.
and the investigation will be concluded AZ
the earliest possible day. The prosecuting
attorney will endeavor to have their cases
placed at the head Of the docket and dis
posed of within the next few weeks.
