FINED $500 FOR
CONDUCTING BALL
GAME ON SUNDAY
Secretary of Atlantic City Attn
letic Club Arrested on
Chiefs Complaint.
Especial to the Evening start

ATLANTIC CITY, June Edward
L. Bader, secretary and treasurer of the
Athletic Club. of this city. was arrested
today on complaint of Chief Of Police
Malcolm b, Woodruff, given a hearing
before Recorder Keffor and fined 5000
for violating the city ordinance for the
suppression of vice and immortality by
conducting a game of baseball In the
Inlet Park yesterday.
There were 1900 persons at the game,
and many of them were there through
curiosity, as ministers and others OPP
posed to playing Sunday ball had an
nounced that they would cause the ar
rest of those managing the affair on
Sunday, but they decided to do nothing
that might start a riot and permitted
the game to be played. AS a result
Chief Woodruff caused a warrant to
be issued for the arrest of Mr.. Bader.
The latter entered a plea of guilty and
paid the fine Immediately.
Commodore Kuehnle, who is the real
head of the Athletic Club. was asked
II there would be any further games.
and said he would give his final de-
cision in the matter in the course of a
couple of days.
Many of h leading men of the city
attended the game. and even Recorder
Keffor occupied one of the boxes. In
taking the fine the recorder announced
hat he was averse to accepting It, but
the ordinance made it mandatory that
the fine should be 5000 and left him no
discretionary power whatever.
