BERLIN POLICE ORDERED
TO USE PISTOLS freely
Battle Between Od1cers and Burglars
Resulted in Death Of One Of
the Former.

Foreign Correspondents Of The Star.
BERLIN, August "a, 1911.
An exciting battle between police and
housebreakers In Berlin, in which a po-
liceman was shot dead, has resulted in
the issuing Of a decree by Herr Won
Jagow, the police president which prac-
tically makes 1t compulsory for the police
to use firearms in encounters with crimi-
nails.
The free use Of pistols and revolvers by
the criminal class in Berlin during the
past two years has been a cause Of grave
concern to the police authorities. and in
June last every member Of the Berlin po-
lice was furnished with a Browning pis-
tol in addition to the usual saber car
ried, with instructions to make use OF the
frearm when in his discretion the less
dangerous saber appeared inadequate.
The new weapon, however. apparently did
not find much favor with the force, and
in many cases policemen omitted to carry
their pistols with them. even when on
night duty.
The constable who was shot, on being
notified that burglars were busy in q
certain house. had to go first to the local
police station to secure his weapon be-
fore proceeding to the house In question
Herr Won Jagow has now issued q de-
cree according to which . policeman
who makes use Of his pistol too late will
be severely punished.
The Berlin newspapers assail Herr Won
Jagows edict, which they say IL designed
to make the life of peaceful citizens more
dangerous than ever. It is also feared
that the order Is likely to increase the
'neurasthenia" from which 1t is oficially
stated thousands Of Berlin policemen are
suffering.

BIG FIGHT CREATES
PROTESTS IN GOTHAM
Forty Thousand People Could
Not Get in Space for TO-
600, Hence the Kick.

NEW YORK. August S1.-Emphatic
protests against sthe management Of
the big Wells-Brown fight here last
night poured In today on police. news
papers. reform organizations and the
state ofiicials charged with supervision
of boxing clubs. The ten-round battle
was the first big fight staged under
the new Tammany law legalizing box
ing. and 1t attracted a crowd Of un-
precedsnted size in New York fight his
tory. Three hundred police reserves
from eleven precincts had to be called
out in an effort to restrain the throng
which mobbed the streets around Madi-
son Square Garden. With drawn night
sticks. the bluecoats repeatedly charged
the mob in right formation and finally
resorted to the expedient of closing up
several streets.
The trouble began early in the even
ing with a series of protests against
the manner in which the price of tick
cts to the fight was being raised.
Holders of a one-doliar ticket calling
for admission found signs staring them
in the face Standing room. $5.'' and
the price of tickets continued to soar as
the evening advanced 1t was charged
also that the spectators had a
corner on the best seats. Nearly 10000
persons finally gained admission to the
big amphitheater, but there was still
q mob of equal size clamoring and
fighting in the streets outside.
Police Inspector McCloskey blamed
the new boxing law. which provides
that the police may not enter any por-
tion of the building where a fight Is
being held. for most of the trouble
The whole scene was disgraceful"

STORY OF CRUELTY STIRS.
Greek Said to Have Been Tortured
by Turkish Police.
Correspondence Of The Star.

rOTelgu correspondence OF Inc Star.
CONSTANTINOPLE, August 10, 1911.
The publication by the Levant Herald
and other European journals OF details OF
the Ill treatment of M. Condoyannai, an
employe Of the Greek consulate general.
has aroused great Indignation in the
Greek and other foreign communities.
The Tanin denies that tortures were in
hicted on the prisoner. but the evidence
OF foreign medical experts OF high pro-
fessional standing who examined his in
juries after his release leaves no doubt
that the police after beating their victim
amused themselves by driving sharply
pointed pieces of wood under his finger
nails. with the object OF extorting in
formation with regard to the Greek naval
lottery.
It is widely felt that IL the police offi-
cials Of the capital could infiict such bar
barous and unconstitutional treatment on
the illegally arrested subject Of friendly
power there Is likely to be considera-
BILE amount of truth in the circumstantial
reports from well informed sources Of

There Is one thing that IL becoming
firmly fixed In the minds Of those con-
nected with amateur ball. and that is that
the season in the local circuits should be
ended earlier. There is little doubt that
the length OF the season from the time 1t
now begins is too long. or else 1t does
not begin early enough In the spring.
Under the present conditions tho league
seasons generally run up to the middle
Of August, and the games in many OF
the leaguse have to be cut out because
Of the fact that the finish has to be hur-
ried along 80 that the post-season series
may begin. Then after the league sea-
sons have been cut short In many in
stances it generally happens that the
post-season series also has to be peremp-
torily ended because Of the date set for
the intercity series. Such condition OF
affairs should be remedied In some man
ner.
The aforementioned facts are based on
what has actually taken place this year.
In several of the leagues the year was
cut short because there was not time
enough to play out the full schedule. and
IN one instance the cutting short of the
season caused n player on one OF the
clubs to be ineligible and maybe cost
that team the championship OF its section
Certalnly ~ was tHe ulIeCt result VI Aes
not being allowed to play for 1t when 1t
had an even chance to win. And then
after the regular league seasons were
in some instances cut short the cham
pionship had to be awarded to team in
one of the sections because there was
not time to finish the series in that class
It is doubtful and is questioned by many
that If the series had been completed
whether or not the team which was given
the championship would have won out
1t might be suggested that the commits
mission formulate a ruling to the effect
that every league must make up Its
schedule so that Saturdays are left as
open dates on which postponed games
may be played. This would prevent the
taking up OF so much extra time at the
end Of the season playing of games that
had been postponed for one reason or
another.
The mentioned method has been adopt
