TIPS FOR DRY" SUNDAY.
Did Tammany Want to Catch
Certain Saloon eepers7
The Action OF the Police Causes
Some Comment.

The action OF the police In connec-
ton with the excise arrests yesterday
was the cause of a great deal OF dis
cussion and comment to-day.
On Saturday all the saloon-keepers in
the city were notified that the Excise
law would be strictly enforced on Sun
day. The fact that the police gave notice
that the law would be enforced was TAX
en- as conclusive proof that the law is
being violated with their knowledge and
consent. and that they are under obliga-
tons to the s~aloon-keepers to notify
them when a sporadic raid Is In contem-
plation.
There were two explanations given
for the dry ORDER" one was tina
Tammany Is trying TO make the public
believe that DIR. Parkhurst is after the
saloon-keepers and thus try to arouse
opposition to Or. Parkhurst through a
certain element. The other was that
the order was issued by Richard Croker
TO furnish Tammany a pretext for ar
resting certain saloon-keepcrs who have
refused to support Tammany Hall.
The belief that thu order was issued
from Fourteenth street was strength
owned by the Tammany leaders and Of
tice-holders were closed as tight as a
drum. The other saloon-keepers usually
regulate their action in regard to clos

day by the action of some saloon
keeper who liz known to be high In the
councils OF Tammany, Hall and who
would be sure to ave the straight tip
on all movements by the police.
Those who did not follow the example
of the leaders found that 1t Is more SER
ious to disobey the orders OF Tammany
Hall than the law.
The Excise League will suggest to the
Legislature an amendment to the Excise
law that is calculated to deprive Tam.
many Hall and the police of the power
to give immunity from prosecution to
s~aloon-kccpcrs In return for their allie
glance to Tammany.
The proposed amendment provides tina
all bars and harrooms must he In full
view of the public after | o'clock n

also cffectually stop the alleged levying

keepers are understood to he In W. o
