Commissioners Have No Power.


Commissioner West said this morning.
when asked about the matter. that he be-
lieves the Commissioners are powerlesx
10 do anything to prevent priz, fights on
river steamers.
Corporation Counsel Thomas has been
requested by Commissioner West 20 fur
nish him an opinion upon the legality of
prize fighting and boxing bouts on river
steamers. He is anxious for his opinion
defining the authority of the Commission
ers in such matters.
Commissioner West today regarding the
affair. and told him that Lieut. sutton
commanding the harbor precinct who
made the trip and witnessed the proceed
ings. said they were mild and nothing
transpired that could cause offense TO the
police. The accounts of the trip have
been greatly exaggerated, Maj. Sylvester
said.
He suggested that as means of put
ting a stop to such proceedings the Com
missioners might revoke the wharf priv
ileges of the steamer.
Mai. Richard Sylvester and Lieut. SUIT
ton both declared this morning that there
was no violations of law while the boat
was in waters over which the District au-
thorities have jurisdiction.
Not until the boat left Alexandria on
the trip down the river were any sporting
events started When the boat was with
in half a mile of the District waters on
the return voyage there was no card play
ing or fighting going on.
We have no jurisdiction over what
happens outside the District, explained
the police lieutenant.

GAMBLERS CHARY
WITH TESTIMONY

At the hearing of the case brought
against William Ffshel and Edward
Pohlman by d. E. Hobstetter in JUS
tice Barrick's court. Fishel was dis
charged, while the case Of POhlman
was taken under advisement by the
justice. Hobstetter claimed that he
had lost $500 in gambling room
operated in a building owned by Fish
ell and POh.man. The witnesses in
the case were subpoenae6 from the
talent" that frequents the alley and
other gambling places and there was
considerable difficulty experienced in
getting them to testify. All stood on
the rights accorded them by the laws
of the state and refused to testify to
anything that would incriminate
themselves. While it was apparent
that poker had been played in the
place, there was no evidence to show
that tile chips with which they were
playing represented any Of the coin
OF the realm" or that each player
did not bring his own eelluloid chips
with him. Many OF the witnesses
seemed to have short memories when
questions were asked them about
what transTdred In the reoms Of Pohi-
maa.

GRAND JURY WORK
CONTINUES TODAY

Officials connected with the inves-
legations of the grand jury said yes
terday that their work would hardly
be completed before Thursday after
noon or Friday morning, probably not
until the later date.
Among the cases investigated yes
terday is said to have been that Of
"Spooks," the Courtland hotel stand
thief, who was located in the Pitts
burg workhouse as a number of wit
nesses summoned in that case were
in attendance at today's session.
There is considerable speculation
regarding the result of the grand
jury's investigation Of the charge Of
murder against Albert Lukens. 1t was
rumored yesterday that the investi-
cation was not yet completed and
that it would be most thorough Ac-
cording to interested parties there are
a number Of weak links in the chain
Of evidence connecting him with the
murder Of the Brown girl and these
will have to be strengthened before
an indictment will be returned.

LOCAL JUSTICE
May Be Affected by the Decision of
Cuyahoga County Circuit
Court,

According to a decision of the cir
cult court in Cuyahoga county in the
cases of Justice John Brown and Rob-
ert Morrow, in which it was held that
they could hold Office until January,
1910, twenty-one months longer than
elected for in November, 1904. Attor-
ney James A. Bowman, succeeded by
John r. Blake, can also hold over
until January, 1910, and Blake was
never elected.
The court held in the cases Of the
Cleveland justices, whose cases. and
that of Bowman are identical, that
their supposed successors were elect
ed in November, 1907, at time when
there was no vacancy and that for
that reason the elections are null and
void and the status of the supposedly
elected justices is what it might be
if they had never been candidates.
There are said to be one or two
other justices in the county which
will be affected by the decision and
throughout the state they may be
numbered by hundreds unless the cir
cult court decision is reversed by the
supreme court of the state.
Ex-Justice Bowman was seen by a
News representative and said that he
would defer any action in his case
until he saw the outcome of the de-
cision of the court in the Cleveland
cases,

FORCE
IS INCREASED

Through the efforts of Postmaster
George H. Clark the working force
of the local postoffice has been in
creased by the department officials in
Washington by the granting of two
additional carriers and one clerk.
Messrs. Thomas Russell and julius
Dome, the two senior substitutes,
Mr.. Clark states. will be appointed
to the two new carrier positions.
Mr.. Clark yesterday closed his sec
ond year as postmaster of Canton
and the employees of the Office are
high in their praise for the efficient
manner in which he deals with them.
Many reforms have been inaugurated
since his incumbency as postmaster
that have proved highly beneficial to
both the employees of the Office and
the public.
