MAY BOX, BUT
 NO FIGHTING The Line Is Distinctly Drawn Over in
 Oakland. Chief of Police Lloyd Points Out the Difference in the
 Two.
He Is the Referee and Will Stop Any Transgressions of
 Rules.
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,
 90S Broadway Feb 20


 sos Broadway, Feb. 20.
 Chief of Police Lloyd concurs with the San Francisco Grand Jury in re- gard to issuing permits for boxing con- tests. and believes that the State law positively forbids the act. While this is a fact, he does not believe that the contests held by regularly organized athletic clubs, which have their own rooms and gymnasiums, can In any manner be classed with the so-called club contests held in San Francisco.
 The Grand Jury's report says: "The honorable District Attorney states that these so-called boxing matches are sim ply disguised prize fights, squarely within the prohibition of the Penal Code; and as they are, per Sc, illegal, you cannot by ordinance legalize that which is intrinsically illegal and is for bidden by the Penal Code of the State. !"
 Referring to this, the Chief said to- night: There never has been but one affair in this city that I did not like That occurred in the Tabernacle, and I then told the management that it could never hold anything outside of it's gymnasium. Both President Allen of the Acme and President Fitzgerald of the Reliance have been exceedingly careful that nothing beyond the legiti- mate boxing should ever occur in their clubs.
 "The other evening two fellows with big gloves went at each other rather roughly, but there were only three rounds. Neither could hurt the other and I laughed at their clumsiness. In San Francisco the regular clubs like ours never ask for a permit, nor do the police ever attend them. They are club affairs, but when you rent hall and charge one, two and three dollars for from four to ten thousand people it is certain that the boxing is simply a prize fight. Our own boys may try their skill all they want, but we are not going to have any imported toughs in this city.
 Tt Is not the clubs that are hard to control in this matter, but the outsid- CTS. I presume a third of the people in this city are interested in these af- fairs. Then the tough element from south of Market street, San Francisco, rushes in and attempts to get beyond the limit I have the full support of | the management of the clubs in this matter and whenever they go beyond the limit that minute will they stop giving any exhibitions. I attend or have a captain or sergeant at every one of their contests, and will know when to act.''

MARKSMEN AT

Few Clubs at the Butts-Military State Shoots to Occur

Small interest in craftsmanship was manifested at Shell Mound yesterday at least so far as concerned the num- Der of clubs and companies partici- pating in the contests of skill. Neither was it on the score of natural condi- tions good day for shooting, the pre- vailing strong south wind and the dark light" (to use a marksman's s phrase), making accurate shooting very difficult.
 Tomorrow Companies A, F and G, Fifth Regiment, have their State shoot at 200, 300 and 800 yards. Very lively interest Is felt in the contest, and it is expected that the event will bring out nearly the full membership, the day being a holiday
 Company L, First Regiment N. G. C., held its regular monthly medal shoot with the following score at 200 yards

SHOOTERS BRAVE RAIN.
Good Attendance at Schuetzen
 Despite the Elements.

It was mean day for shooting at the California Schuetzen Clubs range near San Rafael yesterday, but the regular monthly shoots had the power of attracting goodly number of en- thusiasts, who pelted the targets in- cessantly throughout the day. The cold south wind and the unsteady and changeable light on the targets proved disastrous to excellent shooting.
 Three of the German Schuetzen so- cieties held regular monthly contests, and the members of Company D, Fifth Infantry, were at the park The Cali fornia SchuetZen Club held its bullseye shoot and the marksmen took a lively interest in the sport. The San Fran cisco Turner's and the San Francisco Grutli were also at the range.
 Sergeant Fields, formerly the cham pion pistol shot of the San Francisco police force, was at the park yester- day as a guest of the California SchuetZen Club.
