AFTER AUTO SUPPLY STORES.
Complaint Made to Commissioner Bingham
That Sunday Closing Law Is Violated.

MANY of the auto supply houses along Broad
uav from, 42d street TO SOth street, have been
keepinr open on Sunday. In plain violation of
the Sunday closing laws. which make the SELL
inc of ALL merchandise Sunday, save news
naners soda water, drugs, surgical instru-
vents food ETC. a misdemeanor and punish
able by fine.
People living in this section of the city have
besn greatly annoyed by the open and continu-
ous dissertation of the Sabbath by these auto
sunn,v stores The nuisance has been partic-
ularly offensive in the morning, when people
are on the way to church. Cars stop In front OF
these stores while lamps, tires, etc, are at
tached and often the noise of hammering dis
turbs the desired Sunday quiet.
A tour of inspection made yesterday by re-
norter for The Tribune showed upward of half
a dozen stores open and purchases were made
at all the offending houses II was learned
last night that formal complaint had been
made to Police Commissioner Bingham.
The Sabbath Committee, at Room 81, Bible
House. of which the Rev. DR.. Hubbell Is sec
retary has also had this violation OF the SUM-
day closing laws brought to Its notice, and Is
expected to take active part IN suppressing
the offence.
1t is said that the largest and best known
houses in the auto supply business do not keep
open on Sunday and are strongly in favor OF
having the Sunday closing laws strictly en-
forced. People who live In the automobile dis
trct are also heartily indorsing the present at
tempt to stop the nuisance.
