Brown Earns Edge Over Crowley
in Dull Ten-Round Fort Scrap
Main Event Tuesday Night Lacks Snap; UhIan and
Atkinson to Meet Next Week.

Crowley did all the leading but
took what little punching there was.
The Pittburgher was on top of
Brown all the time but was a total
loss when he came to the point of
landing blows.
Brown landed several stiff wallops
during the bout but stopped after
one punch and was satisfied to take
Tommys leads on his arms and
shoulders. Brown is a good defen-
sive fighter, as is Crowley, and both
were interested too much in avoid
ing blows to give much action.
Mickey O'Dowd of Muncie out
pointed Billy Cecil of Louisville in
the eight-round semi windup, the
nights best fight. Both boys were
in good shape and there was a lot
Of interesting milling. O'Dowd start
ed piling up a lot Of points in
the last three rounds.
Kid Kaufman of Louisville,
shaded Billy Moore, Indianapolis, in
six rounds. kaufman scored the
only knockdown in the first. Moore
did not take count, however.
Pat McQueese, Louisville, turned
out to be a clown fighter. He did
little but stick his chin out for
Johnny Murphy, veteran Indian
apolis pug, to take punches at.
Johnny missed a lot but also landed
a good many. He was so far ahead
Of McQueese there was little use
keeping tab on the bout.
Jimmy O'Brien of Owensboro, KY,
had the slightest of edges over Joe
Levy Of Indianapolis in the four
round opener.
Billy Atkinson, of San Francisco,
is to meet Red Uhlan, also of the
Pacific Coast, in the feature bout
next Tuesday night. Uhlan has APP
peared here several times.

Captain Charles W. shsealsber. commander of an uptown police station, wss the latest police oificial to be arrested. He was held In t1S.- 900 bail after Joseph L. Ehrenreich. q lawyer. had testified that he had paid him 3l.3to . month for the last six months as his share Of the tl2.- ls5 alleged to have been collected from a score of saloonkecpers at the direction of Matthew J. Pattersou. republican leader of the 18th ward. and member of the state house of representatives.
 Patterson disappeared from his home yesterday . few minutes be- fore detectives arrived to arrest him. and 1t was announced he would be sought on fugitive warrant.
 A number of saloonkeepers. in- cluding William Peters, who said he had acted as collector, testified at the hearing before Judge Lewis that each had paid t110 . month for po- lice protection from March 1 until August IS.
 Peters told the court that he had turned over the money. a total of S1e.fs5 to Ehrenreich. with the ex- ception of about $500 which he still had and which he would be glad to give to the district attorney"
 Collected Money
 It was from Ehrenreich that the court learned of Patterson's alleged connection with the case. The law yer testified that he had been "com- missioned" by Patterson to collect the money from Peters every two weeks for campaign purposes" and to give Captain Schoenleber $1.940 at the end of each month. He said he had paid the captain astotal of s7.44o and had deposited the re- mainder in bank in his own name. This. he said. Patterson had told him was to be used for campaign pur- poses in the ward.
 Again this account Ehrenreich tes- tified that he had drawn . check for s2s1.44 at Patterson's direction, to Day the railroad fare of the latter tionsl convention in Kansas City.
 It developed during the hearing that Ehrenreich had withdrawn all of the liquor fund from the bank. approximately $4,400 and turned it over 10 the district attorney.
 After the hearing Captain Schoen- leber was suspended by Assistant Superintendent of Police Hearn and ordered to trial by the civil service commission.

PHIANS IN
 HANDS Of THIEVES
Paid for What They Thought
 Imported Liquor

Philadelphia. Sept 25 R-Prices prominent Fhiladelphian's paid for liquor they believed imported. but which the government says was merely colored alcohol, were before the federal court today in the trial of Joel D. Kcrper. so-called society bootlegger.
 Despite testimony of witnesses that hquor purchased from kerper was good. a chemist who tested some of the assortment seized when Ker- per's place was raided last July said the whiskey was colored alcohol and the gin distilled spirits with gin flavor"
 Laying the groundwork for his case. the government attorney said the liquor was artificially colored so -called whislley. not pre-war stuff. but drinkabie." Gardner Cassatt. banker. testified that he paid so or S75 d case for gin and s92 for cham pagne. Charles Wheeler. banker and former polo player, testified he paid about S70 a case for Scotch WnSkeS anu iodtIIOl IulI'
 On Patrons List
 Cassatt and Wheeler were among those on the so-calle, list of patrons tound when kerper's place of bus mess was raided.
 Both bankers were accompanied by their attorneys. The latter took no part in the proceedings except to ask Assistant United States Attorney Ch 'es Denby, Jr., to make clear that the witnesses were in court un- der the compulsion of subpoenaes.
 The presence of attorneys in court with witnesses emphasized. in the opinion of court attaches. the un- raralleled turn of affairs in enforc- ing the liquor laws in this section. For the first time here men of prom thence were called upon to reveal in open court their dealings with an alleged hootlegger.
 Cassatt and Wheeler testified that they had purchased liquor from kerper, that it had been delivered to their homes and that they had paid for it in cash.
 Harold w. Smith. q broker. said he had been directed to obtain H. 4uor for medicinal purposes for his mother, and that he asked kerper to get some good champagne and French brandy. Two cases of this were delivered. he testified. for which he paid s40o.
 Gordon O. Wilkinson testified that he had received three shipments of liquor at his home in Southwes' Harbor, Maine, one of them being marked "olive oi." More than a score of witnesses testified yester- day, and as many more were eA- pecteG to appear today.
 Kerper's arrest came after prohi- bition agents had traced a shipment of alleged liquor to the home of AL fred E. Norris, New York broker. Norris, against whom the grand jury returned an indictment charging conspiracy, will be tried later. Two employees of kerper were indicted.
 With two police captains under arrest charged with extortion, bri- hery and conspiracy to accept bribes from saloonkeepers. and a repub- lican organization ward leader sought on a fugitive warrant on sim liar charges, District Attorney Mon- aghan today promised further sen sational developments in the grand jury investigation of bootleggers and their jackets"
