have had no referees decision, only the

the newspaper critics are as a rule,
fairly competent and generally unbiased
so that on the whole they can be &C
cepted as what would have been the

He Has Been OutfOusht.
Vow 1t must be taken into consider
alton in the discussion Of our text that
in all these encounters wherein the
verdict has been against the English
man, that he was Outfought at his own
game. for not even a Touchdown has
been registered against him On the
other hand, he has reached the bearers

the fact remains that it is not human

thus far been accorded have been
against boys whom he could beat with
one hand tied behind him and two Of
three OF his closest competitors secure

AS we view il, Welsh is going to be
champion of the Hghtweights only up
to the time that he meets either one Of
two boys over the 20 round route. Those
two boys are Willie Richie and Charlie
White. Both can box and both can
fight. Richie wasn't Richie by 100

State in Large Sum
CLAIMS FOR OFFSET
Will Apply to Circuit Court of Fxfr-
fax for Correction of Report of
Exam aer of Records.

Joseph E. Willard. ambassador 10
Spain, according to Il report illed IN
the office of the State Auditor, is IN
debted to the Commonwealth and the
county of Fairfax for taxes on omit
ted intangible property Of various
descriptions aggregating $1,7l3,5oo
in value. The report is that of Ex-
aminer of Records w. n. Lipscomh
of PRINCE William.
According to counsel for Ambas-
sador Willard the report of the en-
aminer is inaccurate in that it m
cludes values not taxable. 1t is claim
ed that the examiner has listed loans
made by Colonel Willard to finance
the Richmond and Rappahannock
Railway, now in operation to the Pa
munkey River.
1t was reported yesterday at the
office of the Auditor that counsel for
Colonel Willard will make applica-
ton tomorrow to Judge J B T Thorn
ton in the Circuit Court of Fairfax
for a correction of the examiners
report, preliminary to making set
tlement of the taxes due
The report filed by Mr.. Lipscomb
shows that Colonel Willard failed to
make return of $4,000 cash IN
bank to his credit for the years 1906
1907, 1908, 1912, and 1914, Further
it shows that for the years 1910 to
1914 Colonel Willard failed to make
returns on bonds standing in his MANS
to the amount of $307.700 making .
total value in the five years to this
time of 81, 53S,500. TO this is added
the $4,000 cash for five years, S73,
900. making grand total of $l,113,-
500 subject to taxation.
Colonel Willard has been living in
Spain for some years, leaving MS
estate here to his agents and legal
advisers to: look after, and it is not
known that he has been advised to
this time Of the claim made by the
Examiner of Records against the es-
tate for back taxes due.
No statement showing the extent
of the offs claimed by Colonel Will
lard's representatives has been made
to this time. but it will be probably
submitted to the Circuit Court Of
Fairfax tomorrow.

POISONOUS GAS BOMBS.
Caused Panic Among Poor People
in Venice.

Venice. Dec 1.-THE use of as
phyxiating gas in the bombs dropped
on Venice has added a new terror to
these aerial raids. These asphyxiat-
INC bombs have been used in the
trenches. but not until the air raid
Of November IS. was the deadly gas
used in bombs, dropped on cities, so
far as is known.
The air raid on the 18th, was not
made known at the time, even Rome
and other cities not knowing that
it had occurred, as the military au-
thorities threw ia rigid Gordon OF
silence around the city. 1t was not a
serious raid, in people injured or
damage done. but is chief Importance
was in bringing for the first time
the shower of asphyxiating bombs.
The raid occurred near the arsenal.
which is the chief point of attack
for these raids. None of the bombs
fell inside the arsenal grounds. But
outside there is an extensive quar-
ter occupied by the poorer people.
with narrow streets and low houses.
It was in this section that the bombs
fell, spreading the effect of their
fumes among the civilian population.
Only one death occurred. but great
umber of the poor people suffered
from the paralyzing effect of the
gases.
The effect of the. gas is described
as singularly lasting upon the organs
affected and on the vitality of the
people stricken. Some of the pa
tients remain in a semi-conscious
state for four and FIVE days, the face
taking on a greenish pallor. The re-
covery is very slow after this the
gases appearing to carry a poison
to the whole system.
