'"'FOXING" MUFF
NOT UNDER BAN,
TROXLER CLAIMS
Its Inventor Says Former Sheriff
SOmmer Passed on Its
Use.

I'VE might have held an exhibition
with the foxing muff," said Gus TroX-
Ter today, after having called off last
nights boxing exhibition on orders
from Chief Corbitt. Il was advised
o to hold II show and did not at
tempt to put on even an athletic per-
%formance."
Chief Corbitt ordered that there
should be no boxing in the city, follow
ing the orders given by Sheriff Harri-
gan to the same effect last Friday in
connection with an exhibition planned
by the Kline A. G. This morning when
seen by a reporter for the EVENING
STAR he refused to discuss the matter
at all.
Gus TroXler said that ne was sorry
that the complications had occurred
leading to a misunderstanding some
where. 81 explained to the sheriff.
he said, why / should be permitted to
hold exhibitions, as the boxing was
lone in a regular athletic club by pupils
os mine and outsiders who had been
pupils in my athletic classes. I never
permitted brutality nor a fight. the
exhibitions being purely for their hy-
genie value. The ten-ounce glove used
in the bouts is safe and does not per-
nit of any injury that the contestants
being in good condition cannot easily
stand.
II think that the sheriff has beer
%misinforned or received anonymous
letters. The police know what is going
on here, and never interfered. Captain
Ryan, of the First Precinct, usually
has a couple of men on hand, and
knows that I would not c~ountenance
brutality. The people who attend know
that there is not to be a fight, and,
though L have been holding these X
hibitions for seven. or eight years. there
has not been a single case Of injury or
a knockout.
-Four years ago there was trouble
with the different clubs and I invented
the 'foxing muff.' a device hat an
swers the same purpose as the glove
but which comes within the limits of
the law. It is held in TIE same man
ner as a foil, and is neither fist OF
glove which the law prohibits. Sheriff
Sommer said that ii was not against
the law, though it showed the boxing
skill Of the user. Others then used the
ordinary glove, and instead of changing
it changed the name to 'foxing.'"
The boxing contest postponed from
Friday night until tonight at the Kline
A. C. is being watched with interest.
Patsy Kline applied to Chief Corbitt
today for permission to put on the box
ing bout tonight and was referred to
Sheriff Harrigan and the head of the
Third Precinct. CAPTAIN Christie.

LIMIT MAY
SAVE GUILTY IN
ASYLUM SCANDAL
Grand Jury Still Probing Into
Alleged Acknowledgement at
Overlook Hospital.

That the statute of limitations may
protect some CT the persons involved in
the scandals that have been uncovered
in connection with the construction
and management of the Essex County
Hospital for the Insane. at Overlook,
has been stated on good authority. 1t
does not apply, however, to those
members of the two committees. of the
Board of Freeholders, who are SAID to
be under a cloud, as the statute can
hold public officials for such offenses
as fraud within a limit of five years.
Non-ofIicials are not interfered with
by the court after two years. SO 1t is
only as far as non-officials + con-
cerned that there may be any block
to convictions.
AS the result of the further rrohe
by the grand jury late yesterday aft
ernoon, that body is more than ever
convinced that there were gross frauds
in the building of the $2,0eo,0 600 institu-
ton, and that even more officials and
non-officials than those aalready de-
cided upon ought to be held to answer.
1t is said that the jurors feel that
there are numerous others who should
be DuQlSIlGu, DuI Dttrluot liOil OHIiotS
have been committed beyond the pale
of the two years of the statute, 1t is
not worth while to find additional in
dictments.
The bills drawn against the w com-
mittees were not voted on at yester-
day afternoons session, but it is likely
that there will be q session Thursday
when this will be done. No meeting
has been called for today. Al the next
session, however. not only will the bills
referred to be taken up, but ali mat
tiers relating to the apparently in
terminable probe will be whipped into
| shape so that the jurors can be dis
charged with a clean bill of health by
Chief Justice Gummere Saturday
morning.
William G. Sharwell, of this. city,
and Frederick w. Shrump, of leasant-
dale, yesterdays witnesses, tod abouc
the work they did at the asylum.
Sharwell did the flooring and said he
followed the specifications closely.
Shrump did some OF the mason work
and told about his troubles with
Richard S. Heningham. the general
contractor, with whom he is now in
litigation.

LICENSE COSTS VEREIN
TAX EXEMPTION AS SCHOOL
1snocial to tho Newark star

TRENTON. March 29.-The assess
mcnt on property of the Carlsbad Turn
Nerein. of Carlsbad. was sustained to-
day by the State Boar of Equalization
of Taxes. The organization claimed
exemption because it's property was
partially used fer educational purposes.
When the case reached the state
Board it was learned that liquor was
sold on the premises, bringing the prop
erty within the liquor law provision
that liquors shall not be sold within
100 feet of a schoolhousc.
The board decided that. as a license
had been granted to the yerein by the
Bergen County Court of Common
Pleas, the premises are, therefore,
legally adiudged one not to be used as
a school within the meaning of the law.

~chicanery, nor to say trickery. in poll
tics.
THE act of 1909 has hardly had a
chance to be tried until his bill is
passed to endeavor to undo all the
good it was intended to accomplish. We
should not play with the rights of the
people in this manner if we expect
their approval. Nc party can do that
and receive support under sueh eircum-
stances. The old idea of anything to
win is gone. The times demand that
we shall be frank and fair with the
voters. Who demands this change?
Have there been any petitions by the
people asking for this legislation? Has
there been a single representative
gathering anywhere asking for IT. IS
the bill before me, anything other thar
the scheme of a few ~socalled or would
he leaders who fear the people and wish
to get another veal of power without
their consent? Are they afraid to go
to the people again? If so, why?
C~ontradicts Excuses.
Someone has suggested that 1t
causes expense. This is absolutely UNI
true. No one need spend a dollar if he
does not wish to. The tickets are print
ed and the polling places all provided
at public xpense Not only should A
candidate for his Office not spend my
thing. but it should be made unlawful
for him to do so. If a man cannot be
elected committeeman without eXpend-
ing money to get it, he should be de-
feated. The sooner we reach a place
where it is a crime to spend money in
such elections the better it will be for
the State.
THE conditions in the several coun-
ties of the State with relation to the
election of county committeemen cannot
be so different. 1t will grow more pop
ular as time goes on. The closer the
party organization can be brought to
the people and the more responsibility
the representatives of the party in
county committees car be made to feel
in their relations with the people, the
better it will be for the state, as well
as the political organizations.
Il can imagine no legislation that
would b. more Objectionable than to
enact the bill before me into law, in
the face of the action of the Legislature
of last year and the decision of the Su-
preme Court affirming hat legislation"

Well is Pure Gasoline .

That gas gusher over at Golden
City that excited the natives over
there so tremendously by bobbing
up in an old well turns out to be
genuine gasoline, as good or better
than the gasoline sold by our
friend Mr.. Rockefeller of Standard
oil fame. The Golden City Herald
has abandoned the store article
andis periodically using the home
grown stuff right from the we'll,
and says its the best they ever
tried. The fact that the stuff
taken from the we'll is so evidently
a high grade of natural gasoline
something never before found in a
natural state-has caused a good
many people to look at the find
with suspicion. However if it's a
fake somebody threw away an
awful lot of gasoline on a bad
chance. Besides the stuff bubbles
up in the we'll in a constantly in
creasing and apparently never
ending stream. 1t answers every
test for gasoline oft must be gaso-
line. As the Herald says, "the ques-
ton is fits gasoline where did it
come from, and if it's not gasoline
what is it1"
