CRUSADE IN ALL STATES.
Actors Church alliance to Try to
Stop Ill Sunday Shoes.

A plan is on foot to put end TO Sunday
theatrical performances throughout the entire
country according to the Rev. DR.. Francis John
Clay Moran chairman of the law committee Of
the Actors Church Alliance. He explained that
he, on behalf Of the actors alliance. was re-
sponsible for the raids made Sunday night at
some of the big theatres.
"'The alliance has remained inactive for some
time" he said owing to the difficulty met
with in the last city administration. We never
could get any to enforce the law. When the
reform administration got into full swing we
thought it about time to take some action. In
behalf Of the alliance, called on Commissioner
Greene and urged him to begin immediate
crusade against Sunday concerts where the law
was violated. He did SO, with the result that
several managers have been arrested
This crusade has not been instituted from a
religious standpoint, but to give actors day Of
rest 1t is not against the performer. but against
the manager.
sEWe have drawn up a bill covering Sunday
theatrical performances. and we are going to
take immediate steps to have 1t presented in
every legislature in the country. We expect TO
accomplish this end in two or three years, so as
to have a Uniform law covering such conditions
in every part OF the country.
Recently, the Central Federation of Labor,
at a meeting held in this city, voted unanimous
Iv In favor Of closing the theatres on Sunday,
and even appointed committee to work In con-
function with our law committee to see what
could be done toward closing the theatres on
Sunday.
There are now engaged in the crusade
against the Sunday concerts twenty-six hundred
members Of the Alliance of which one thousand
are ministers of religion and Of all denomina-
tions. However strongly many Of us feel in
looking at It from religious point of view. we
baye.not got away from the fact that the whole
question is distinctly that of the hours Of labor.
and that no person should be required to work
seven days a week. &C many have to do

Performers at Sunday Concerts Must Beware
General Greene Writes to inspectors.

In a letter the inspectors YESTERDAY Foiice
Commissioner Greene made 1t clear that the police
must stop all vaudeville performances on the
stage on Sundays. Many such performances ad-
x,ar+1aed In advance as "sacred concerts" have
been permitted by the police. on the sround that
the law was not violated SO long as the actors
on the stage did not wear costumes ether than
ordinary stres. attire. Upon the advice OF the
Cornoration Counsel General Greene virtually tells
the pouce that costumes have nothing to do with
the case.
After telling the inspectors that they must have
close watch kept at all Sunday concerts hereatter
for posstble violations OF the Law. and cause ar
ree4e when the Law is violated. General Greene
cails attention to necessity of getting complete
.n6 exact evidence In where arrests are
made.

SAYS HE'S OUT FOR GOOD.
But E.r-President CleUeland Is Al
zcays Ready to AdUise.

Political interest was about equally divided
Yesterday between ex-President Cleveland and
Edward NJ. Shepard. Mr.. Shepard divided the
honors not much for the battles he mas Won
as for those he still may take part in Those
who will have 1t that Mr.. Cleveland never comes
to this town without talking politics with Tromi-
nent members Of his party knowingly wasged
their heads last night and said: Told you so.
They said this because Mr.. Cleveland accom-
panied Mr. Shepard from the latters office to the
Lawyers Club in the Equitable Building, FOR
luncheon where according to the wise ones
they talked much politics.
The significant thing to those who will have
plenty of politics in the du time of the year
is that Mr. Shepard started last night for Louis
VILE where dwells one Henry Watterson. From
Louisville Mr.. Shepard will GO to New-Orleans.
where on Thursday forenoon, he will make en
aidress before the educators of Tulane Uni
versity From the Crescent City MIR. Shepard
will go to Chicago, where Monday night OF
next week. before the Iroquois Club. he will re-
suond to the toast The Present Duties Of
Patriotic Opposition" This will be a straight
out political speech Mr.. Shepard admitted yes
terday
The political sharps who insist that Mr.. Cleve-
land mixed considerable Lolitics with his social
round while in the metropolis. assert that MT
Shepard went away primed with the poltlcal
views OF Mr.. Cleveland: that ne VIII quit heh-
lucky prirned with the political views of Henry
Watterson and that when ne reaches Chicago he
will be prirned with still other political views
and be In a highly entertaining mood when he
speaks to the remnant of the Democratic Six
Nations in the Windy City.
Mr.. Cleveland. who. BY the way seemed 10
be In first rate health and spirits. said that he
came here solely to attend the Beecner memo
rial meeting in Brooklyn.
IT am not in politics. said Mr.. Cleveland, ac-
cording to ar evening paper. II am out for good.
1 saw Mr.. Shepard last night for only two min
utes and politics did not figure in our conver-
sation. Politics is furthest from my thoughts
at present. although am always ready to act
in an advisory capacity If desired. As for
taking any active part in politics. that Is not TO
be considered The objects of my visits to New
York are always reported wrong"
It was said last night that Mr.. Cleveland.
