ALLEGED FIGHTERS
ARE DISCHARGED
BY POLICE JUDGE
It Is Admitted, However, al
South Orange Hearing, That
Crowd Watched Bouts.

Although it developed at the hearing
today in the South Orange village po-
lice court hat boxing bouts had been
pulled off in Trenchard place, within
a few feet of the police station, the
three young men who were accused
of having participated were discharged
by Police Justice J. Martin Roll. The
accused, who were brought up on a
charge Of having beer d~isorderly ana
causing a gathering. are Emmett
Beach, a negro Louis Crompton and
William Newman.
The hearing was apparently caused
by an article which appeared In the
EVENING STAR on Friday. the fistic
combats having taken place the night
previous. Justice Roll stated specifcal-
ly that he wanted to find out whether
the article was true or not, as the
STAR, he said. is a reputable paper
and has a large circulation in South
Orange.
THE fact that it appeared would
have many people to believe that the
police were not doing their duty in
breaking up such gatherings" he said.
1t was admitted by a number of wit
nesses that two boxing bouts had
taken place in the presence of about
twenty-five men and boys.
1t was stated by. a negro witness,
who said his name was Friday" and
whose correct name is Edward Mon
roe, that "the whole road was the
ring" Boxing In the whole Dad with
q crowd Of twenty-five persons CON
gregated about, some urging the par
Elephants to use their skill, Is, how
ever, evidently not regarded as dis
orderly by Justice Roll.
Michael Murphy, who was O witness,
when placed on the stand said he
thought certain things about the af-
fair. In speaking to a reporter out of
the courtroom he said that there was a
prize-hght and that Crompton's punches
caused Beach to bleed freely. He said
that Beach had made wild wings
which would have killed Crompton had
the latter not been too clever for him.
In court he said 1.-The fight had
stopped just previous to Police Marshal
Thomas M. Mcguire putting in an ap-
p%earance n dispensing the gathering.
Murphy also said while out of court
that Friday" and Russell Evans,
both negroes, seconded Beach and. that
Richard Farrell and Thomas Decker
ulseu Inc pal ticipnnLS 10 pltcn IN.
This he did not admit on the Witness
stand. Neither would he deny the as
sertions when asked.
william Newman, who admitted
having boxed with Beach in CONVEX
sation with a reporter, said that four
policemen, Patrick j. Kelly, Patrick
Mcguire, Edward Hatton and Theo-
dore Steve, had passed by when the
crowd was congested and one Of the
officers, he declared, said: Jaw. let
them alone"
Marshal Mcguire says that the four
named policemen have poor EXCUSES
for not dispensing the gathering, and
declares he will have them face
charges before the police committee OF
the Village Board OF Trustees.
