You Can't Test the Law when the People
Decline TO Prosecute.


The effort to test the new law against ticket
%scalping. through the arrest Of Frederick NJ.
Bolles OF 397 Broadway, Mt the instance OF the
ticket scalpers. fizzled before Justice Andrews
of the Supreme Court yesterday. Bolles was
arrested on complaint Of Henry ]. Bradford. a
salesman in the employ of Sweetzer. Pembroke
& Co. Bradford bought n ticket to Norfolk, Va,
from Bolles. Bolles, being arrested for making
that sale, secured n writ Of habeas corpus for
his production in the Supreme Court. where 1t
was expected the constitutionality of the new
law would be passed upon.
Abe Gruber and Louis Marshall, attorneys
for Bolles and the ticket scalpers, were in court
with a mass of law papers and law books to try
and knock the law into smitherecns. Assistant
District Attorney David Milliken. assigned to
the case by District Attorney Olcott. came
empty handed. Mr.. Gruber began to explain
the case, but was interrupted by Mr.. Milliken,
who said:
Tho relator got himself arrested. and now
he wishes to be released, and we are willing to
obligc him."
Mr.. Gruber, evidently taken aback, said that
the case was bought to test the constitutional
fly OF the now law and he thought they should
desired to proceed under tho circumstances. but
Mr.. Mil!iken said that, while his office was will
ing to test the law. they did not care TO do so in
such n case. The Judge then discharged Bolles.
Mr.. Millikcn ar'erward said that the case of
Bollcs would not test the law, as Bodies had
on Sept. !, alth ugh he sold 1t atterward. Tho
new law could not affect existing contracts.
The law can be tested, he said. by the arrest of
man who buys and sells a ticket after Sept. /.

Capt. Dean OF that station has been wayinR

has had difficulty in getting evidence, because
his men are known to the pullers.in. One of

would be u good man for that duty.
