PHONE TALK Is ABOVE Law
Court Holds That, No Action Lies for
Ereach of Peace,

Judge H. L. Buck of the municipal
court of Winona holds that no action
lies for breach of peace where the
words were spoken over a telephone,
although suchs words would be action
able if spoken directly to the person
addressed. He holds that by the time
the person offended had reached the
person speaking he would have had
time to cool of. The action was
brought because of abusive words al
legged to have been spoken by Law
renee Kreidermacher to Mrs. Mary
Simon over the telephone at Oak
Ridge, Wia9na county. The trouble
arose between neighbors because OF
stock, running at large.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov 2a-In prime
condition and anxious for the, fray to-
morrow the army and navy football
teams arrived here today. The play
ers spent part of the afternoon in
light practice.
The m6dshipmen had the first use of
the field and later the cadets We're
given possession of the gridiron.
For fear that the enemy might be
watching, the teams did not indulge
In any new formations on the open
neld, but reserved these drills for the
secrecy of the large hotel rooms.
The largest crowd that ever saw a
football game on Franklin field is eX-
pected to witness tomorrows contest.
President Roosevelt has sent word
that he will be unable to attend. The
presidents daughters. Mrs. Longworth
and Miss Ethel Roosevelt. will repre-
sent the presidents family. Secre-
tary of War Wright and Assistant Sec
retary of the Navy Newberry will also
be here.
Some friction developed over the Sc
lection of an umpire. This was COM
promised this afternoon when the navy
officials suggested that Evans of Will
liams college, one Of the five men named
by the army for umpire be made ref
cree and that AL Sharp of Yale, who
had been previously agreed upon by
the two institutions for referee, be
made umpire. This was accepted by
the army.
The lineup of the army and navy

GLEASON IS GIVEN
F0RFEITS OF
FIGHTERS
John Clark Decides That Pro-
mofer Is Entitled to Papke-
KefoheI Money

John T. Clark. holder of the forfeits
for the Papke- -Ketchel fight, which was
to have taken place at the Coliseum
Thanksgiving eve, announced last night
that he had paid over the forfeit money,
put up by the fighters, 10 Jack Glea-
son. Clark declared that he could see
no other course and in a typewriter
document, which covered three legal
cap pages, set forth that Gleason lived
up to the spirit and word of his agree
ment. while both Papke and Ketchel
and their respective manager disre-
garded the agreement
The original articles of agreement
were signed September 10, 1908, and
Gleason T. i. Jones, Papke,s manager
and J. r. OConnor each deposited a.
forfeit of $1,000 with Clark, guarantee
ing they would pull off the fight.
Clark, in justifying his course. made
the following statement.
I desire to supplement my decision with the
following propositions to Mr.. ketchel and Mr.
Pspke. II either both of them are dis
satisfied with, or doubt the correctness or my
above decision. / willing TO wager the
amount Of their several forfeits that my de-
cision is correct. said wager TO be determined
by three arbitrators familiar with the rules and
customs governing agreements such as the said
one entered into September TO- 1e0S-l TO
select one arbitrator. Messrs. Ketchel and Papke
TO select another arbitrator and the two arbi-
traitors so selected By TO choose the third
arbitrator and the said wager, II decided in
favor Of my decision. 1 shall donate TO the
"R A. Smyth testimonial fund"
Clark's decision in awarding Gleason
the forfeits will be taken by sporting
men as the proper course.
The Occidental club promoter was a.
considerable expense in advertising and
making the Ketchel match. and if he is
not entitled to the forfeit, then this
forfeit business can be considered as
nothing hut. huge joke.
When O'Connor and Jones put up
their forfeits. il is to be presumed. they
had reasonable intentions of fighting
for Gleason, and their failure to do SO
seems sufficient grounds for Clark
awarding the forfeit money to Gleason.
