MARSHALL ANGRY
At TERRE HAUIE
Thinks Police Were negligent
In Not Stopping a Prize
Fight.
INSTRUCTIONS TO JUDGE
HE INFORMS HIM THAT FlSTlC
BATTLES ARE BEING PULLED
OFF AND HAS ORDERED HIM TO
STOP THEM.

Indianapolis, July 30.-Governor
Terre Haute police did not do their
duty in suppressing the prize fight
which was held there few nights
ago. He has called the attention OF
Judge Fortune of the Vigo circuit
court to the fact that prize fights are
being held In Terre Haute. and has
instructed him to put stop to them
in the future. He has even offered
the Judge the services of a detach-
ment of the Indiana National Guard
to enforce his orders and to enforce
the law If the police will not do their
duty.
Sent Burt New.
The governor sent Burt New, his
legal clerk. to Terre Haute the other
day to investigate the report that
Judge Fortune has issued an injunc-
ton restraining the Terre Haute po-
[lice from interfering with the fight
New found that such an order had
DOeu u1dO0 Uul uc luuOCcu IuC JuO6C
to change 1t SO as to give the police
the right to attend the fight and to
stop it IL it became prize fight such
as is prohibited by the law. And the
police went to the fight but did moth
ing, although it became very pro-
nounced prize fight.
The governor says he will stop prize
fighting anywhere in the state and ne
proposes to follow the plan Of operat-
ing through the Judge Of the circuit
court of the county In which fight is
advertised, The case at Terre Haute
is entirely different from the one at
Hammond recently, where some one
sent him clipping from Chicago
paper and a letter containing infor-
nation that fight was to be pulled
off ct Hammond. In that case there
was no injunction. In fact the fight,
1t was afterward learned was sched.
uled to take place across the state
line In Illinois. and therefore was not
in the Jurisdiction of the Indiana au-
thorities. But these two cases show
the energy with which Governor Mar
shall is going after the prize fight
game in Indiana. II he keeps up his
present gait the fighting game will
soon be dead one in this state.

life insurance companies. 1t was or

men of Wisconsin, who believed that
the time was ripe for the establishment
of an additional solid, conservative Wis

the company are at Wausau, but the

of the state. The organization of the
company and the framing up OF its
policies were superintended by the best
