HOUSES DESIRE
TO REMAIN open

This morning in the district court,
in three of the injunction cases tried
last week, wherein the houses in "the
hollow were adjudged common nuis-
ances because of their having sold
herein intoxicating liquors contrary to
provisions of the prohibitory liquor
t The question came before the court
~, Ne motion of A. T. Cole and' Nc
En-. ~ Wood, counsel for the defend
ants q her a stay of proceedings
should 'anted pending an appeal
to the se<eE, ) court.
The def ,eflts in each case claimed
their right 10 such stay under section
1914 Of the statute upon appeals, which
provides in substance that, 'if the
judgment appealed from directs the
abatement of a nuisance, either public
or private, the execution of the judg-
ment shall not be stayed by the appeal
unless an undertaking is entered into
on the part of the appellant, by az
least two surities, in such sum as the
court or presiding Judge thereof shah
direct, to the effect that the appellant
will pay all damages which the oppo-
site party may sustain by the con-
tinuance of such nuisance"
A, w. Fowler, states attorney,
strenuously opposed the granting OF
such stay, insisting that this section
had, no application whatever to the
public nuisances described under the
prohibitory liquor law He called at
tention to the fact that this section
first found it's way into the laws OF our
territory in 1887, through paragraph 10,
chapter 20, and has remained un-
changed to the present time.
He further urged that even if ii did
apply, there is no means by which the
court could fix the bond, because there
is no adequate method of measuring
the amount of damages. That the pro-
hibitory liquor law stated that when
liquor was sold or kept for sale in any
given place, or that. that place was kept
for persons to resort to for the pur-
pose of drinking intoxicating liquor,
that it became not only crime but a
public nuisance, and the damage to the
public by its continuance could not be
measured He therefore insisted that
it could not be made to apply to condi-
tions as they existed in this case.
In this opinion OF the states attor-
ney the court concurred and ordered
an execution to issue forthwith COM
manding the sheriff to close UP the
places Immediately and keep them
closed for the period of one year.

Nj RAY
REFUSES TO
ENTER DEAL
Messrs. McGinnity and Smith
Asked Local Business Men
to Buy Third interest.

Another chapter was ADDED to the
story of the Newark Club sale when 1t
was learned today that Michael Muir
ray, the local business man, had been
offered a whack at the one-third pur-
chase proposition. out turned dow the
offer old because of the conditions
appended.
Frank Redpath was the agent OF
Messrs. Smith and McGinnity who
made the first proposition to Mr.. Muir
ray. They suggested that ne take a
third portion of the stock for $22. 900.
Mr.. Murray states, however. that SON
inquiring OF Mr. smith he learned that
there was 8 S27, 900 debt. He asked If
the amour he would put up would be
used in defraying the debt, but was
told that McGinnity and Smith would
divide 1t up between them, taking
81, 600 zach and tina the debt would
still stand. This was one of the draw
backs, according to Murray, who de-
clares that If he~became a third owner
and the debt was noe cleared up he
would in reality be paying Ss1,0 0 for
his stock, as he would have to bear a
third of the $27. 900 debt of the club,
which would be $4,000 added to his
$4,000. which he already would have
invested.
Another h~indrance, according to Muir
ray, was that Joe McGinnity would
not listen to his proposition that a new
manager be secured. At the time Mr..
Murray was. pledged to secrecy and
declined to discuss the affair, but now
he states openly facts of the offer made

Jack Herman, the manager of the
Polish wrestler. zbyszko, certainly
made Wefers's one hundred-yard re
ord look like a slow freight at the first
call he got on his proposition to wager
$40. 900 on his foreign grappler. He
states in his reply to the offer to match
the Italian wrestler, Giovanni Raice-
vich, against Zbyszko for $40, 600 that this
money was to be given to Gotch for
going on the mat with the Pole. but
was not to stand as a side bet. To give
Herman the benefit of the doubt, ] will
make him a ounter proposition If he
will agree to match Zbyszko against
Raicevich for a finish contest, with the
understanding that the winner is -

ELS HOPE
RUNS HIGH
ON ELEVEN
Showing Made Against Brown
Enthuses New Havenites
to Unusual Degree.

NEW HAVEN. Conn, Nov. 1s.-The
mental and physical game played by
the Yale eleven Saturday has pro
duced a great feeling Of confidence in
the Yale Undergraduate body, and the
confidence IS not lessened by COMPARE
sons with the work of Princeton and
Harvard. With the Princeton game
coming next Saturday and the Harvard
game a week later. the Ellis have again
shown their ability to round into top
form at the proper time.
So far as rushing strength can be
attained with consistency Yale showed
more of II last Saturday than has
yet been shown by any other Eastern
team. The game was featured by the
shift formation, which looks more like
a dependable play thar ever before.
Executed with precision and diversity
1t bids air to prove an extremely puz-
zling play for Princeton and Harvard.
In SATURDAYS game it frequently
folded the Brown men behind an in
vincible interference and left a yawn-
ing gap for a sure gain.
The only defensive weaknesses shown
by the Yale players were a poor han
ding of punts and a lack Of sureness
In tackling. It is hoped that the
weeks practise will remedy these de-
fects.

Bud Sharpe, Corridor, White,
McAllister and Malarkey
!. Among the Number.

Bud Sharpe's name is included in a
list of twelve players on whom waivers
have been asked by Manager George
Stallings, of the Buffalo Club. Judging
from the wholesale asking Of waivers,
George Stallings must be anxious to
pull off some deals and intends to build
up an entire new team lex year. Be
sides the former Newark first-sacker,
who was to popular here. waivers have
been asked among others on George
Schirnl, Jack White, Frank Corridor,
Erve Wratten and Lew McAllister.
These are the principal players included
in the big batch.
Whether Stallings is Just feeling
around to see which of his players are
in demand and is anxious to see what
other Eastern League managers have
to offer or whether he is in earnest. is
hard to tell, but 1t will be a big surprise
il such men as Sharpe, Wratten and
Corridor escape the league waiver net.
