day wrote the following letter TO General O'Beirne
acting Commissioner OF immigration Mt NewYork, In
regard 20 the landing Of immigrants on Sunday:
"YOu state 10 this Department that great and
unnecessary hardship is placed upon the employees in

rest You further state that such change be

at is the uniform policy Of this Department, in all
the various branches OF service allotted to H. 20 permit
only such amount Of sunday work clearly neces
sary TO the public welfare and required by the claims
Of humanity. In view Of your representations above
cited you are hereby authorized to inaugurate the

able notice 10 steamship companies, as the circum-
stances may 10 require. and seeing TO II that any
resulting discomfort 10 arriving immigrants is reduced
