The commission questioned the attorney general concerning it's jurisdiction to entertain a complaint against the Elm pire Athletic club of New York in the proceedings to revoke the clubs license on the ground that it sold tickets in excess of the seating capacity of the club house, and as to whether the com mission is authorized by the prescribed rules to limit the number of tickets to be sold to boxing matches.
