A special dispatch TO the Baltimore Sun
from New York yesterday says: Those New
Workers who looked for a strenuous Sunday
today, the first under Mayor Lows admin
1stration were disappointed.
The excise regulations were hberally in
terpreted, as they had been under the
Tammany regime, and thirsty wayfarers
had no difficulty in obtaining refreshments
Side doors were open all over Greater New
York, and the saloons were patronized as
usual. Business, however was conducted
more quietly than in the past Two ar
rests of saloonkeepers were made early this
morning because they kept their bars open
after midnight.
In every police station in the city on
Saturday night the captains read to outgo-
ing pfatoons an order commanding them to
enforce the excise laws. 1t has been Gus
tomary to do this, however, for years and
the practice was observed by the captains
In the absence of specific instructions from
Commissioners Partridge. In several in
stances the captains told their men to keep
the saloons closed between midnight and Z
O'Clock this morning, which probably ac-
counts for the arrests mentioned.
After midnight tonight the police re-
laXed their vigilance and no attempts were
made to interfere with the sale of liquid
refreshments. The pitcher trade" through
out the East Side was carried on as usual
