POLICE CHIEF OBDURATE Opposition Continues and "Nuisance Statute" Will Be Invoked to Prevent Spectacle Mayor Sustains Action of Cox. With Chief of Police Cox standing- firm In his determination not to allow the pictures of the Jeffries-Johnson flftht to be l. own in this city, and with Mayor eimon and the District Attorney back ins; lilm loyally, the only hope of the exhibitor is In an application to the Circuit Court for an injunction, which will probably be made this mornlnp.

A temporary, Injunction, If granted, will probably be effective In giving time for the presentation which le scheduled for January 1, 2 and 3. at the Bungalow Theater. John F. Logan, attorney for the thea ter, visited Chief Oox yesterday morn ing and endeavored to have him revoke hla decision. The Chief replied that he would not stultify himself by doing -so, and that an appeal to his superiors or to the courts would be necessary If the pictures were to be allowed to run. Appeal waa then made to Mayor Simon, Dut ne .aismieseo. ine matter orient, saying that be was opposed to any brutal spectacle and would sustain Cox. The Chief of Police aekd District At torney Cameron for an opinion as to the legality of hla action, and was informed that his position was well taken. The District Attorney did not sustain the prohibition under the statute forbidding the presentation of crimes, as that act, of 1M3, simply forbids showing what pur port to be the acta of "desperadoes or convicted felons.- Another provision of the same statute, forbidding the sale of books showing 'iscenes of bloodshed," which might be made to apply to the prizefight, does not extend to stage pre sentations, for the reason that It would shut out all tragedlea and many other dramas. The District Attorney holds, however, that the case Is fully covered by section 1900 of the code, the "nuisance statute," which provldea a penalty of from one to six months or a One of from VA to tXO for committing any act that "openly out rages the public decency or Is injurious to public morale." "Maudlin sentimentality," says At torney Logan, commenting upon the cam paign agalnet the pictures. "Mayor Oaynor, of New York, showed his law abiding spirit when he told the ministers and others who sought to prohibit the nlcturee there that he was nrmiy op posed te them himself, but that he would - , .
