TOCurb Gambling
On Outdoor Sites

Having discovered that the laws
against gambling in the District
do not apply to games staged in
open fields, the Commissioners to-
day enacted q new police rsgula-
tion to cover this apparent over
sight.
The police department reported
to the Commissioners that young
men and boys make a practice OF
assembling in open fields or thick
ly wooded sections to roll the
bones," and that the Police Court
judges have held that such cases
are not covered by existing law.
The question was referred to
Corporation Counsel Stephens, who
told the city heads that Congress,
in legislating upon the subject, has
dealt only with the operator OF the
gaming table or other device and
with the occupant Of the premises
on which he knowingly permits
gaming.
The new regulation would reach
any person who participates in a
game Of chance upon public prop
erty or upon vacant private prop

D'ANNUNZI0 RETIRES
 FROM ACTIVE LIFE
Famous Italian Poet, Aviator and Leader, Divorces Himself From
 & World Affairs,

Brescia, Italy, Sept. 3.--Gabriel DAnnunzio has retired completely from participation and interest in the affairs of the world to stern monastic isolation in his villa, &C., cording to letter from him pub lished today by the newspaper, Pro- vincia Di Brescia. The letter ex- presses contemptuous aloofness from the proposed formation of an italio league or any other organization of a political nature and continues:
 q beg you to declare that I have become the solitary proud artist of 1911. It is my firm decision not to care or to know what happens out side my villa. Every evening burn before an altar of stone, the heap of the days unopened and unanswered letters. To write to me is useless, to come to my door equally useless.
 T answer nobody, I receive mo- body. Neither prayers nor insolences can break my monastic enclosure. My dogs are wise and bite well. Have I made clear?"

Rev, Chase Trying to Have Fighter Sent Away Before Bout

Washington. Sept. 3.--Immigra- ton Commissioner Curran at New York notified tho labor department today that the investigation of charges against Luis Angel Firpo, the Argentine heavyweight, pre- ferred in the hope of securing his deportation, would be concluded within the next two days.
 The message was taken as anoth- CT indication of the determination Of federal officials to bring the case speedily to conclusion. Whether the final report of the investigators will be awaited before action is talk en by the department here is not re- vealed, as officials have received preliminary information upon which they are being urged by Firpo's ac- cusers to act.
 The Rev. William c. Chase, of New York. who has taken the lead in urging deportation of the fighter, is making every effort to bring the question to decision at once, 50 that Firpo may be sent out Of the country before September II, whe he is under contract to meet Harry Wills, the American negro heavy weight.
 Labor department officials appear to believe that the case may be con- cluded so far as the department is concerned before that dates but they point out that even if deportation order is issued Firpo can appeal to the courts and thus probably prevent execution of the order until after he meets Wills. ..s r7 M#
