protested that they could not drink much Of the
wine. The one who ordered the wine laughed and
said that they would make hard effort. and added
that probably some one else would come In to help
them. The wine was brought and placed In front
OF the party. When the bar closed this party was
the most fascinating crowd in the room for the
other diners Envious eyes We're cast upon the row
OF bottles, and overtures OF friendship were made
by many. The party that ordered the wine was
most friendly, and soon the single table had been
spread out. and instead OF five, there were dozen
in the party.
Another party that undertook the same method In
another restaurant was not 80 fortunate. No one
came in 10 help them out, and. the wine had been
bought. IL was incumbent upon the party TO drink
IT, and the result that the members Of the con-
viva group needed stawart assistance to get home.
Unless some relief is granted. the owners OF these
Places say the law Will wipe out their business alto
gether Their patrons Will not come 10 the place
unless they drinks. and under the new
law they debarred from selling drinks after
o'clock. with food. The hotels close their
cafes al o'clock and so the all-n.ght diners have
place to go. The relief. some OF the res
taurant men say, may come by securing hotel
license. but this will make necessary remodeng
the restaurants. which will involve considerable de-
lay and additional expense.

INC PROHIBITED HOURS.

ING PROHIBITED HOURS
Several arrests made by the police In this
city yesterday account OF alleged violations or
the Raines law By sa.oon-keeDers or bartenders
who gave away free lunch with liquor or beer
Chief Conlin said he had received the opinion OF
the Corporation Counsel as 70 the selling of food
in saloons at ridiculousy low rates. and hereafter
the police Will bold that there Is an evasion OF the
law wherever sandwiches are sold for cent. or
other articles sold for an equally low cost and
arrests will be made in every instance where such
eve sion Is discovered He issued orders to the
Inspectors to instruct the precinct commanders 10
see that the Ralnes Jaw regarding free lunch Is
interpreted In conformity with the Corporation
Counsels opinion. Saloonkeepers who charge iive
cents for a sandwich a piece OF pie will be per-
mitted to sell luncheon as long as the regulation
prices are charged.
The Chief would not say anything about closing
restaurants after prohibited hours where liquors
are kept for sale. he had not yet fully decided
what to do in the matter. 1t was learned from an
other official however. that the Chief would In ali
probability order that restaurants that have bars
for the sale OF intoxicating liquors must close on

Plate Association was present to uphold the in
terests Of the labor and capital engaged in that
industry Ine committee included W. T. Graham
secretary; Warren Aimes, George Grier. OF New
castle. Penn. and John Jarrett secretary OF the
Tin Plate Manufacturers Association.
The argument was urged that any advance
contemplated In the price Of steel sheets or
plates would adversely affect the tinplate in
dustry. which depended for future prosperity on
the lowest price possible on the steel plates to
be converted into tin.
As an instance OF the progress made by the
American tin-plate industry under the prevail
ing prices for steel plates. it was shown that
foreign tin plates which formerly monopoliZed
the market here, were rapidly disappearing from
the United States; that heretofore American
tin plates had struggled for recognition in many
home trade-ccntres. with the foreign article per-
sistently occupying the most prominent place
and refusing to be dslodged; but that now the
situation had materially changed, and Ameri-
can tin plate was in the lead. With an advance
In the price Of their raw material, however. the
tin-plate manufacturers contended that they
could not meet competition from abroad.
An adjournment taken until 10 o'clock
this morning.
POOL COMMISSIONER SUGGESTED
In connection with the movement to form a COM
bnation the question arose OF appointing a Pool
Commissioner head Of the organization. The
candidacy of Percy Preston for this office was
mentioned and the Illinois Steel Company was
designated as interested In his election. The
young man from Pittsburg. however is not
Favored by the Carnegie Company. II Is SAID.
He was profuse in his protestations yesterday
that he knew nothing about the propositions be-
fore the steel meeting and declared that he
knew nothing about meeting being held at
ALL" although he travelled all the way from the
Smoky City to attend one.
Mr.. Meday. OF A. r. Whitney G. Co. and not
of the Carnegie Company. as incorrectly reported.
said yesterday that he knew nothing as 70 what
the outcome OF the proposed steel pool would be.
and that the rumors respecting the formation
of a combination published on Wednesday. which
he was quoted as speaking about were not
mentioned by him.

that their interests have bcen uirt by the passage

obtained II the brewers had consented TO use their
