Nr. Henry 3. F. mcfarland, president
u the Board of District Commissioners.
yesterday submitted to his colleagues a
statement upon the several bills before
them. providing for stricter observance
OF Sunday.
Mr.. Macfariand advocates the enactment
of the bills in order that the Commits
sioners may be clothed with authority TO
close places Of business on the first day

He said:

II am in favor of general Sunday law.
suited to modern conditions and judfcious
in character. for the District of Columbia.
1t should not stand practically alone
among the States and Territories, almost
all of which have Sunday laws that can be
enforced. We have general Sunday laws
now for the District OF Columbia. but they
are antique Maryland and English statutes
which cannot be enforced.
I'VE have two modern acts Of Congress,
under which barrooms and barber shops
are closed en- Sunday. and these ara
strictly enforced to the general satlsfas-
tion OF the community. But there is alb
solutely no other modern law for the pro-
tecticn of the weekly rest day in the
National Capital. The increasing in
vasion OF that day by business, which
threatens seriously the well-being of the
people, is calling attention to the necs-
sity for such a law.
Approved by Clergymen.
"a number Of prominent clergymen,
churches of almost every

trict of Columbia, have represented to
the Commissioners their approval Of the

They are the spiritual leaders of the peo-
pie and express the feeling of those who
believe not only in the protection Of
physical rest on one day in the week, but
In safeguarding the weekly opportunity

ever they were committed, Americans or

Replying to Colonel Hepburn. he asked
when the American army had become such

Continuing. Mr.. Wheeler characterized
General Smith an inhuman monster
and declared that the President had his
Endorsement when. not as a Republican
but as an American President. he ordered

to justice.
This was net 4 political question. Mr..
Wheeler declared; it was not an attack

Would CounteTbalance Benefit.
Mr.. Leavitt said that if there is to be
any tariff concessions on Cuban sugar. he
hoped ii would be accompanied by the re-
moval of the diTerential on refined sugars,
because that would reduce the profits of
the trust to almost the extent of the adj
/ ditional profit it would make from the
! Cuban reduction.
Unless that is done" he said, "the
trust will use that additional profit as a
club to destroy the beet sugar industry. g
You are making this whole question of
public policy a question Of fight between
yourself and the trust" remarked Mr.
Plat
That's all there is in the question. &"
interjected Mr.. Teller. There is no
question of relief for Cuba. IL is only
fight between the trust and the beet
sugar men"
Turning TO the witness again Mr. Plat
said il seemed that while he objected 10
the 20 per cent tariff reduction on Cuban
sugars, because IL would hurt his bust
ness, yet he wanted to increase the re-
duction, Just to spite the trust"
I'VE are willing TO sell our sugars at
one eighth of cent per pound less TO the
consumer rather than have our whole in
dustry destroyed" WAS the reply.

THE Cuba Company has acquired about
10000 acres of land in the provinces of
