a good many OF the people of this town
ana vicinity say 81 wrong impression con-
corning the management of the City and
Suhur ban Railway Company vas conveyed
in communication printed in The Star
Saturday last. In the communication the
writer spoke disparasingly of some of the
conductors, stating, in substance, that they
did not dea summarily with rough charac-
tiers who are sometime on the ears as pas
sen%orS.

are times when the conduct of some of
these passengers * very Objectionable. but
it is rarely that such events occur except
on Sunday. The offenders, who comprise
women as We'll as men. are said to be resi-
dents of Washington. who. having spent
the whole or the greater part of Sunday at
some of the many road houses in the VI
cinity of BIadensbure. return to he city i'll

1t is claimed by leading citizens IF Hy-
attsville. which is embraced in what Is
known as the Bladensburg district, that
,he keeping open of these road houses on
Sundays is Il violation of tn" sunday law,
and that il is the business of the duly con-
Stituted authorities OF the county t. put a
stop to the alleged unlawful acts of the
road house propr.etors.
