NO SUNDAY GOLF,
Baseball Was Stopped and Retaliation
 Has Begun.


 New York, June 3.--The police or Yonkers, N. Y., have arrested BenjaS min Adams, member of the board of| education of that place, on the charge of playing golf on Sunday. The sum day blue law crusade began several weeks ago and has been pushed hYN one side and opposed by another wita' fierce energy. It was originally start-4 ed to stop Sunday baseball playing. A petition to the police commissioners signed by Yonkers clergymen calling for strict enforcement of the Sunday laws was. recently presented. Tho commissioners ordered the chief of po- lice to enforce the laws inpartial]y. declaring that golf playing on Sunday was as much of n crime as baseball. Fearing trouble the members of the goIf club posted lookouts about their. grounds, but as no effort was made by the police to interfere with them, they supposed they would be exempt from arrest.
 The signing of the petition by the0 ministers provoked a storm of indi igllil-| tion in several congregations. Many church members prominent in the af-. fairs of the town served notice on their pastors that they would sever their connection with the churches unless the ministers withdrew their signatures.

SECRETARY LONGS VIEWS
On the Supreme Court Decision in
 Porto Rican Cases.

Denver, Col, June 3.-Hon John D. Long, secretary of the navy, passed through Denver en route to Washing ton after visit of about two weeks with his family, now stoppng at Colo rado Springs.
 While here he gave out for the first time statement of his views on the supreme court decision in the Porto Rican cases. It follows:
 '.rhe decision of the Downes case sustains the government, and is iE accordance with the views of Repub- licans in congress. 1 understand that it recognizes fully and clearly the power of congress to legiSlate in it's discretion with regard to the revenue relations of our insular possessions. Any other construction of the consti- tuition than this would have made the regulation of our relations with the new territories maze of ineXtricable confusion and inefticIeDcy and m eN- ample of How not to do it." and would have resulted in the stay of our commercial progress. 1t is not easy to detail the endorsements in which the administration of insular affairs would have been involved. Ther status is so essentially different from that of the states of the union that the same legislation for both is simply impracticable. This is so clear that it goes without saying, and this decision is fortunate.
 "Now because of this very thing there will be those who will say that the court has been governed by the necessities of the case and the in- terests of the administration. On the contrary. I believe no other decision was justifiable as pure matter of con- stitutional law and of precedent. It is the decision outlined by John Quincy Adams. by John Marshall. by Daniel Webster. by the most eminent authori- ties and previous decisions by the court itself. In the old pro-slayery days the effort was made to carry slavery into the territories under the theory that the constitution went there with it, but that doctrine never found popular favor. which is now confirmed by the present decision of the supreme court.
 .'The country will breathe freer and the administration. confirmed in it's views and strengthened in it's work. will carry it on in the interest of all concerned with renewed assurance of universal good results"

} SECRETARY HUNT ARRIVES.

New York, June 3.-W IT. Hunt, sec retary of Porto Rico, arrived here to. day on the steamer Ponce from Porto Rico. MT Hunt said that conflicting fa- ports of the decisions in the Porto Ri- can cases made it somewhat uncertain as to what were the true results when he left Porto Rico. Under the dscis- ions, however, he believed 1t would not be many months before free trade with Porto Rico would ensue. He said that when the new revenue law went into operation after July the government of the island, with duties collected in foreign importations and with excise taxes would have enough to maintain itself. Conditions in Porto Rico were improving and hopeful. The people he said are adapting themselves to the changed government and are looking forward to gradual improvement.
