Were Open Here Yes
terday.

plants Today Against Law Break
ing saloonkecpcrs.

.. A. Hayworth OF the East side Bap-
list church appeared before Asst. coun-
ty Atty. i. j. Daily and filed complaints
against two Sunday dispensers OF IL
quor. Ono charge was for John Doe,
bartender or proprietor of the White
House bar on Main street. and the
second for John Doe, operator OF tho
Lone Star saloon on West Temple.
MINISTER'S MAKE ROUNDS.
Rev. Hayworth, in company w'th
Row. Brown and others, made several
tours yesterday to the saloons. In
many Instances they found tho saloons
doing business. A list OF these were
Immediately placed In the hands Of the
police. Rev. Hayworth found front,
back and side doors wide open or AZ
least ajar for the Thirsty patron Mr.
Hayworth and his party had no trouble
In obtaining entrance TO the Lone star
and White House. Among the others
which were in line and had large CO.
terie going out or In, were the vienna
Buffet, Art Bar, Wilson, Hogle's, Nc
rlerney, Falstaff. Garfield Chesapeake!
South, and others
CHIEF SHEETS KNEW.
Yesterday morning Chief sheets was
seen standing in front OF the White
House bar, where four neatly dressed
young men fell out tho door on the side
walk one rolled up against the leg Of
Chief Sheets into the gutter. Later
policeman was seen standing In front
OF this place to prevent any others from
rolling. orders were given later by
Cbief sheets for special police TO be
placed In front OF the Vienna Buffet
and the White House bar. Many Of the
saloons opened for their regular sunday
traffic. The police ordered these to
close as soon as they became bold
enough TO allow the DRINKS 20 roll out
on the walk, or, In other words, 10 "let
the cat out OF the bag" Many saloons
along First and Second South and on
State street were opened regularly, but
these closed their doors or at least made
n pretence OF closing them during the
day In several cases did the police
knock at the door and ask permission
to enter. They were greeted In such
cases with nothing doing" and left TO
stand while the loungers inside could be
seen lined up along the bar or about the
tables. They often would sit In plain
sight OF the officer and hold out their
glass or bottle as the case may be, and
with a sneering grin ask him to come
in. Several bartenders said they would
not close unless every other keeper did
the same thing. Their traffic being suf-
flclently heavy 10 pay for the liquor,
tho fine imposed, should there be one,
and still have considerable profit.
DETECTIVES BUSY.
The detectives of the police forie
were kept on tho jump either duck
ing" the offenders or steering them
to the station. Evidence brought to
their notice was many times followed
up. Hogles on Main street and James
McTierneys on West Second South,
however, were permitted to remain
open as long as possible Reports camo
into the headquarters 80 frequent, how.
ever that at last tho places were or
dered raided. The sergeant with his
faithful few MARCHED out of tho station
In double breast, chest out and head
erect. Boldly they marched west along
First South to Main, thence down Main
to Second South. Both places by the
time the officers had arrived, had
cleared their rooms. Back-door en-
lidhlcs tdulc III Aho LhVi't
swinging doors were thrown open and
all curtains pulled back that they might
see the interior. In both Hogle's and
at McTierney's they found everything
tight, absolutely nothing doing. Yet
only few minutes before Is and 20
men were lined up IN each place. This
offers one OF the modern puzzles or
miracles OF the twentieth century.
MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION.
The Salt Lake Ministerial association
Is determined that Sunday shall DO
made n day OF holiness That all sa-
looms shall be closed when there Is a
state law prohibiting 1t. Reverends s..
A. Hayworth and ID. A. Brown OF the
East Side Baptist and the First Bap-
tst churches are leading the crusade.
They are determined to prosecute the
cases to the fullest extent OF the law.
Paul populs, proprietor OF the GAR
field saloon on west South Temple was
arraigned IN court this morning on the
charge OF selling liquor on Sunday. He
pleaded not guilty. The case, however,
WINS too strong against him and Judge
Diehl pronounced sentence as $50. SO
great was the blow TO Populs that he
came near having apoplexy. He, how
ever, finally decided to appeal the case.
The same charge against Paddy O'Neill,
bartender OF the Bingham Buffet, on
Commercial street, was set for Thurs
day morning.
