The Cincinnati Gazette of Monday
gave full account of the workings
of the Pond and Smith liquor laws
on the first Sabbath after the laws
went into effect. 1t had full force
of reporters in the field, and every
saloon violating the law was reported
and a full list of names of proprie-
tors and location of saloons was
published, and some of the proprie-
tors of the leading saloons and plea
sure resorts open on Sabbath were
subjected to an interview by the re,
porter. The result in Cincinnati is
footed up as follows:
THE total number of saloons
found open was 433, out of nearly
1000.
The station house states showed
the following yesterday:
The Central had two victims for
drunkenness, Hammond had four for
drunkenness and safe keeping, Bre>
men Street Station had one, and all
the others showed clean states, with
out an arrest of any sort"
The Gazette had special di spatches
from all the leading cities in Ohio,
from which we make the following
extracts

been the quiesest, most orderly and
decent Sunday known in Cleveland
for years. In spite of the order adj

closed by very large majority. The
police were vigilant, and found OPP
portunity to make but seven arrests,

looms of this city, but five were dis
covered open to day.
| COLUMBUS, o., April 23.-Nearly
all the saloons of this city were clos
ed at II o'clock last night, and re-
NAMED closed during the day. The
result has been an unusually quiet
Sunday, and only two arrests for
drunkenness. The closing of the
saloons in compliance with the law
was in pursuance of an action previ,
ously agreed upon by the proprietors,
and not to any action of the city Off
Gals. It is stated, however, that mas
much as all the respectable saloonists
of the city have manifested their in
tention of complying with the law,
those who failed to do so to.day will
be prosecuted.
