OHIO SUNDAY LAW.
Very Generally Observed at Clevsland-A
Few Arrests Made-Attempt at Toledo to
Revive an Old Law Prohibiting All
Kinds of Work on Sunday

CLEVELAND, o., April 25.-The new Sunday
law went into force to-day and the saloons
very generally closed. But few arrests were
made, most of them about midnight last
night, the proprietors not having closed
at IL o'clock, Notwithstanding the
liquor league issued circular Friday advis-
ing that the saloons be kept open with shut
tiers up and doors closed, but not locked. Few
cared to test the law and in so doing run the
risk of going to the workhouse. Those ar
rested will demand a jury trial, hoping no jury
can be found to convict.

THE TRIAL or ALDERMAN JONES.

The trial OF Alderman II. o. Jones went forward
in the Kings County Court OF Sessions yesterday,
after several delays Two members OF the Board of
Education were on the stand. James Murphy, for
ten years chairman of the Finance Committee
showed in the evidence which he gave upon cross
examination how loosely business was conducted.
The statements OF employees relied upon without
verilcatiOn. On three occasions ii was found that
the CITY Treasurer credited the Board of Education
with $50, 900, $4,000 and $4,000 more than
rghtfully belonged to it. Mr. Murphy had great
confidence in Stuart ana thought him strictly
honest. Assistant Secretary Wilson gave details of
the business methvds of the Office lie rs well rs
the secretary filled out warrants. When Stuart
was sick in 1874 the witness sent to him for the
key of the smaller safe, in which warrants were
kept. Mrs. Stuart brought the key and stood by
while the safe opened, and after it was closed
took the key back TO her husband. After Stuart
had signed the warrants drawn at that time they
were brought back from his house by Jones. 1t
was announced that Stuart's flight would lie adj
mitted, and the counsel for the defence said that
the fact of Stuart's flight was unfortunate Tor
Alderman Jones. and that he had been frightened
away by excessive bail.
