between the officers of the Metropol-
itan club and the attorneys for the
said club, the club has determined
to postpone the boxing exhibition
between Kaufman and Langford,
which boxing exhibition was sched-
uled to take place this afternoon.
''Mr. Louis Blot, representing the
Metropolitan club, and Messrs.
Cleveland Dam and George Appel,
his attorneys, were informed last
night by Adjutant-General Laucls
that he had been instructed by Gov
ernor Gillett 10 prevent the boxing
exhibition between Kaufman and
Langford if the Metropolitan club
should attempt to stage the same.
"The chief of police has also ad-
vised Mr.. Blot that he would not
permit the boxing exhibition to take
place, and that should the boxers en-
ter the ring he would Immediately
arrest them.
"It is the desire of Mr.. Blot to
obey the law in all respects and
while he feels that the view of Gov
ernor Gillett is erroneous, he cannot
as law abiding citizen, defy the
mandate of the governor and the
chief of police.
'Mr. Blot does not wish to be a
party to an act that would cause the
governor to bring militia into San
Franciscoa at this time, and further
desires to protect the good name of
his city from any such act on the
part of the governor.
"Mr. Blot also desires to protect
those who have purchased tickets for
the boxing exhibition and to those
who have purchased tickets, the
money will be cheerfully refunded
at some future day.
within the next few days Mr..
Blot will test the right of the COVER
nor to order troops into San Fran
cisco to prevent boxing exhibition,
which is lawful in the state of Cali
fornia.
'In view of the foregoing the box
ing exhibition between Kaufman and
Langford is postponed for one
week"

sacramento, Calif., June 18.--'T
notice that District Attorney Fickert
in his reported interviews complains
about stopping the fight at this late
hour, and others, too, are making
the same criticism" said Governor
Gillett in formal statement today.
In reply to all these complaints
wish to say that the press of this
country has not reported me correct
ly. For instance one of the Chicago
papers published an interview with
me which never took place wherein
was made to say that the fight
would be big thing for San Fran
cisco; that it would bring many peo-
pc there who would spend mach
money.
In this way I have been wrong

San Francisco in securing recognl-
ton from congress ror its Papana-
Pacific exposition the Jeffries-John-

place in Alameda county. 1 learned
that the local authorities were in
vestigating it and I then said that
the state ought not to do police duty
in municipality so long as the local
authorities were discharging their
duty and were able to cope with the
situation.
II understood that the promoters
of the fight were told that they could
not hold it in Alameda county, be-
cause it would be a violation of the
law. and the fight was then trans
ferred to San Francisco. 1t was then
up to the district attorney of San

Washington, June 1S.-The house
today adopted the senate statehood
bill providing for the admission Of
Arizona and New Mexico as states.
The house had previously adopted
a statehood bill. When this measure
was reported to the senate the sen.
ate bill was substituted for it and
passed. The house adopted the SEN
ate substitute, thus avoiding the
necessity for sending the measure
to conference. House members de-
clared that If the bill went to con-
ference 1t would be emasculated.
President Taft strongly favored
the senate bill and urged leaders in
the house to secure its adoption.
Therefore it ib expected that his
signature will soon be attached.
The vote on the measure in the
house was unanimous. 1t provides
for the admission Of Arizona and
New Mexico as separate states. The
state constitutions must be approved
by congress and the president.

aside as public domain in each state
