MORE POLICE INJUNCTIONS.
Two Granted by Justlce Kelly In Alleged
POOlrO DOM Cases Three Denied.

POOR DOM CascS-Thrce Denied.
Supreme Court Justice Kelly in Brook
Ign yesterday granted two injunctio ms
enjoning Police Commissioner McAdoo
from interfering with the rights of business
men in Manhattan and denied three appli-
cations for injunc;ions. In the case OF the
application of John Phillips. president of
the West Side Club for an injunction re-
straining the police from interfering with
their rights and privileges as club members
, Justice Kelly says that on the occasion COM
planned of the police did not seek in an
orderly way TO gain access to the club
rooms by the doors but ran up ladders and
broke into the windows, which were smashed
with axes.
These acts, says the Justice, were acts
OF mob violence and were without warrant. j"
Justice Kelly says there was no evidence
presented to him to show chat bets Were
being made on the races in the club, and
then continuing he says:
The notion of any police Official that he
may go about smashing into houses and club
people without evidence or warrant simply
have to be deemed insane in a free govern
ment. II it did not rise out of Ignorance. 1t
Is no, to be wondered at if the police who are
thus taught lawlessnesS by their superiorS
occasiona llv do individual acts of lawlessncss
The law does not sanction government by the
AK and club. That j. the way in Russia to
some extent but not here in our free govern
ment. Ours is n government of laws and not
men. Russia Is = government of men and
not laws
In conclusion Justice Kelly says that
while he strongly suspects the club was
used for making bets on the races yet
the polio. should he able to bring tho guilty
persons % justice without spectacular
raids"
The application Of Thomas F. Murphy,
o cigar dealer at % West Twenty fourth
street, Manhattan, Tor an injunction en-
Joining the police from interfering with his
business by keeping men stationed in front
of his store, was also granted. IN grant
ing the order Justice Kelly says:
No fact is set forth showing why tho place
u suspicious; no overt act is testified to. Tho
inspection. it seems to me. should have de-
veloped something TO justify its continuance
II the suspicious were we'll founded. II has
been going on for some three months. There
Is not n word in the answering alidavits ex-
cept the police captain statement that the
place is on the list referred to. | do not think
this justihes a continuance of the visits of the
police and I think in this case the motion
cred warranting continued inspection. the
defendants mey move for a modification Of
the order.
In the cases Of August Graushaw, dea er
IN teas and coffees at 81 Bowery; Gustav,s
johnson. dealer in wall papers at 81 East
Tenth street, and George Howley, liquor
dealer at l24 University place, Justice Kelly
denies the motions for injunctions.

PRODUCTION NEARLY PERFECT

Florence Davis Here Tonight in
1.-THE Player Maid"

So seldom do the "one night
stands get production that Is well
night perfect that when one of these
rarities comes this way the delight of
the local theatregoer knows no bounds.
The manner in which Charles Froh.
man presents William H. Crane in
The American Lord" this season ap-
proaches perfection about as nearly
as anything ever seen here and 1t
pleased the audience from dress circle
to peanut-gallery at the Academy of
Music last night. Supporting Mr.
Crane Is a company made UP of six
teen real actors, even the very small.
est roles being in hands that were
more than capable. Three stage set.
tings, massive, beautiful and new-apd
with appropriate furnishings and ac
cessories, were used.
Nearly all of the leading critics of
the country have said that the con.
struction of "The American Lord
which is from the pens of Charles r.
Darcy and George II. Broadhurst, is
bad and that many of the scenes are
inconsistent. This is undoubtedly
true. but nevertheless the play is
thoroughly and wholesomely enjoyable
- va 'ciih III CuoISl, luC IlcWu,
honest American who becomes an
English nobeman in spite of himself,
is typical Crane role and in it the
inimtable comedian is seen at his best.
The contrast between Breuster and
Lord Wycherly, splendidly enacted by
Geo r, Riddell, was striking and the
scenes between the two were humor.

At the head of the support is Miss
