Pep Before Battle With
Gibbons at st. Paul.

ST PAUL MINI. Nov. 1o.-JacI
Dillon put in busy day in final
preparation for his ten round go with
Mike Gibbons tonight. He Was out on
the road in the early morning and in
the afternoon went through a spirited
workout in the Potts gymnasium,
Minneapolis where he has trained for
the so.
The handlers for Dillon announce
ne II at or below 16S pounds. the

planning his morning workout on the
boulevards with the statement that
he "felt like he needed the work and
was strong, rugged fellow, and the
go as YOU please footwork in the open
air wouldn't do him any harm, any
way"
Dillon Takes Hard Workout.
No matter what may have been the
cause. the Indianapolis boxer was out
early yesterday on the road and this
afternoon took everything the GYM

Christie and Johnny Tillmans
Gibbons completed his training
wednesday and was merely loafing

only light work during the afternoon
to keep his muscles properly loosened.
All the drudgery was over for him
and his handlers pronounced him in
perfect shape. lie weighs 153 pounds.
Bcarcnt shows Good Form.
Dillon worked out in splendid style
in his final boxing. He dropped all
the indifference and nonchalance Of
his earlier work Of the week and
walked into his sparring partners.
His final showing Of local training In
dicated that Dillon has it in mind to
make rushing night Of it and carry
tina dueling TO Gibbons right from the
gong.
1t is generally conceded by the
friends Of Dillon that his best chance
rests in that sort Of a battle, as the
cleverness of Gibbons precludes any
possibility of the indianapolis man at

him and come out Of the match any
thing but a loser.

November "a, was much surprised
when Mayor II. X. Volland. of this

trim for his bout when Mayor volland
told him he objected to prize fighting
and that he preferred no training

Volland admits that he told Walters

Australia, to follow him when he
could get to the states, save up some
money, and seed it to her.

today from Decker, written on the sta.

ROSE Willing
To ASSUME ALL
RESPONSIBILITY
Sheriff Says Grand Jury Re.

Contains EerrorS of Fact

Il am willing to take full responsi
bility for the conduct of the city Jail
Long ago ordered Jailer Fern to put
into effect strict rules. and those wis
itors who enter the Jail now must ap
ply to me-"
This was one of the statements
made by Sheriff Charles H. Rose When
asked his opinion of the report OF the
grand jury as published yesterday in
the Star-Bulletin. Rose qualified his
words in this way:
ITO compare my administration OF
the city jail with that of High Sheriff
Jarrett in Oahu prison is unfair !
have to give my time to running a
police force and he has only to attend
tc his prison affairs. But the city jail
Is being run in an efficient manner,
nevertheless.
THE report of the grand jury"
Rose continued, "is just the same as
their short report at the time of the
Investigation into Fred Coughs story
of misconduct at the Jail, except that
1t shifts responsibility to me. 1t charg.
es. carelessness, which, If it ever ex-
listed, has been overcome since the
grand jury recommended more care
In the first report.
Rose Is Satisfied.
Il am satisfied with this report. II
does not bear out the charges which
have been made in newspapers here
of gross incompetence and misconduct
II does charge carelessness, which
do not agree ever existed In any great
degree.
The grand jury report says visitors
should not be permitted to go to The Jail
without a pass as has been the prac-
tise and is now the practise
This is an error. Weeks ago
made a rule that no one could enter
the jail without pass from my office
The report also says no reports are
made to me from the JAIL | announc.
ed in an interview weeks ago that
such reports were now required"
Asked whether he had any general
objection to the report, Rose said: RI
None whatever. The jury prob.
ably judged by the facts as presented
to them. We know the police depart.
ment is not perfect, Jut we think 1t
is better than il has ever been.
Newspapers have exaggerated the
viewpoint of the grand jury by read
ing into the report things that are not
there. Rose concluded, "The reason
for this is politics. Not being of the
party represented by the newspapers.
| naturally do not expect any great
amount of praise from them. am
well satisfied if / get a fair deal. Ev-
cry sheriff In office here for years has
had the same thing that I am getting

Recommending a filtration plant for

takes up the water and sewer prob
lens in a vigorous manner.
This part of the long report made
Yesterday is of much general interest
in view of the present discussion over
waterworks development. The grand
jury proposes bond issues for water
and sewer system extensions, but only
after comprehensive plans and studies
have been made.
The report upon these subjects is as
follows: E II.
In the case of Honolulu, where 80
per cent of the privileges are flat
rates, frequent inspection of all fix
lures should be made in order to keep
the waste and leakage reduced to a
minimum. Water closets will get out
of order; urinals will become opened
too full, and rigid rules to conserve
the supply, and rigid enforcement OF
such rules are imperative against
those who wilfully abuse the flat-rate
privilege. .:..s
wherever such conditions of waste
fulness prevail, the department should
very promptly enforce meterage or
shut off the supply. Indeed, meter
age to begin with is the only fair or
equitable way to sell water; and as
we approach the entirely metered sys.
