Regulation Held Uniform.

The appellate court disagrees with
the claim of counsel for Mr.. Edmonston
that the regulation for Sunday OBJ
servance is class legislation. I'VE
find nothing in the regulation says
Justice Robb. ito warrant the con-
clusion that it is not uniform in its
operation. On the contrary. we think
it's operation is impartial within the
classes, affecting alike all similarly
situated.
The object and scope of the regula-
ton under review was to insure to the
people of the District their day OF rest
that their moral and physical we'll
being might be advanced. Having in
mind the end desired, can it be Sc
riously contended that the classifica-
ton in the regulation is SO palpably
arbitrary as to amount to an unrea-
sonable discrimination against those
within the classes. Each of the pro-
nibited things is purely secular in
character and out of harmony with
the atmosphere of Sunday. In short.
each would constitute a false note and
jar upon the sensibilities of those
seeking the rest and quiet to which
they are entitled. Nor do we think the
exceptions are SO palpably unreason-
aole as to warrant judicial interfer-
ence.
We cannot say that it was an abuse
of the discretion reposed in the Com
missioners for them to find that an
exhibition of moving or other pictures,
vocal or instrumental concerts, sing
ing by those not in character costume,
and lectures and speeches. were not so
objectionable as to be forbidden The
test is whether there is substantial diff
ference between the classes prohibited
by the regulation and those excepted
from its operation. We think the
regulation meets this test.

"Base Ball Very Much of a Game"

Another contention of appellees is
that the regulation was not intended
to embrace a base ball game This
contention is obviously unteuable. The
regulation is aimed at any public ex-
hibitloh OF any entertainment, play,
opera, circus, animals, gymnastics,
game etc. The court will take judicial
notice of the fact that base ball is verv
much of game. Moreover, one of
these games played within the limits
of the city would cause as much or
more interference with the quiet OBJ
servancc of Sunday than any other
amusement embraced within the regu-
lation- This the Commissioners well
know. There is. therefore, every rea-
son for giving the regulat alton the rea-
sonable Interpretation which it's Ian
guage permits"
Justice Robb reviews Sunday leg:sla-
ton. which, he asserts, has been known
to the world for more than fifteen cen

1T thus appears declares the JUS
tice, that Congress has recognized what
all other legislative bodies have rec
ognized, namely, that Sunday is a day

realizing that the Commissioners. being
in closer touch with local conditions,
as to what police regulations would be
health, comfort and quiet of the peo-
pie of the District"
The decision of the appellate court
was rendered on an appeal taken by
the Commissioners and the District as
SCISSOR from decisions of the lower
court enjoiniug the Commissioners
from interfering with base ball games
conducted on Sunday by Samuel s. Ed
monston, jr., at Union League Park,
18th and H streets northeast, and from
a decision granting a mandamuS
against the assessor directing the is
suance of a permit to Mr.. Edmonston.
The sole question, the appellate court
finds, is whether Mr.. Edmonston was
entitled to license. 1t finds that the
District Commissioners acted within
the scope of the authority delegated to
them by Congress, when they passed
their resolution for Sunday observance,
and therefore Mr.. Edmonston was not
entitled to a license to violate that
regulation.

CAN'T FLOAT LOANS HERE.
Proposal Made by Switzerland Re-
fused by Uncle Sam.

Washington. Aug. 15.-The United
States government today announced
itself as opposed to the floating Of
loans in this country for the benefit
of any belligerent European power.
Switzerland. a neutral country, in
ouired if she might float loan in the
United States and was informed the
restriction would not apply to neutral
countries.
J. P. Morgan & Co., approached by
private bankers, who wished to know
whether if a loan should be desired
bv the French government it could
be floated in the United States. an
nounced that it would take no action
the State department might disap-
prove.
The following pronouncement of
policy was issued by Secretary Bryan
today at the direction of President
Wilson:
Inquiry having been made as to
the attitude of this government IN
case American bankers are asked to
make loans to foreign governments
during the war in Europe, the follow
ing announcement was made:
To Neutral Nations.
"'There is no reason why loans
should not be made to the govern
ments of neutral nations, but in the
Judgment of this government, loans
by American bankers to any foreign
nation, which is at war, is inconslst-
ent with the true spirit of neutral
ity.'"
This principle represents an ad-
vanced attitude on the part OF the
United States on much mooted
question. Hitherto loans have been
1oated in the United States as we'll
as other neutral countries for the
benefit of the belligerents.
International authorities have
agreed that while the loaning OF
money is forbidden neutral govern
ment her subjects might engage in
the practice.
DR.. Chas. Paul Huebscher, Swiss
charge d'affaires, who had a long
conference today with Secretary Bry-
an, said he had no information as to
the amount of money desired by
Switzerland. He said it was not a
governmental loan, but a private
banking transaction. He said Switz-
erland needed money to keep her
forces in the field to preserve her
neutrality and for her internal needs.

NOT DISPOSED
TO QUESTION POLICY.

Paris, Feb. 23.-The French foreign
office has no comment to make on the
Benton affair in Mexico, nor does. the
French government appear to be dis
posed to offer any suggestions to the
United States upon the subject or to
press any other policy upon Wash
lngton than the policy which is now
being followed.
The Temps while referring to the
excellent relations between France
and the United States, ridieules the
American policy and alludes to the
possibility of European intervention.
Last September informal exchanges
took place between France and Great
Britain on the question of possible
Joint representations by France, Great
Britain and Germany as to whether
something might not be done by these
nations and the United States, working
together for the restoration Of order
IN Mexico.
The prevailing view was that the
United States better be left with
free'hand. The objections to European
action seemed to be, first, that such
action might offend the United States
and, second that Joint military inter
yentien would cause enormous expense
to the European powers taking part
without any prospect of reimburse
ment after order was restored.

Sailed to Port
Stripped by Gale.

New York, Feb. 23.-With his ves-
sci anchored in the lower harbor, a
dismantled wreck, Captain Paul Hay
den of the bark Foohng Suey came
to the offices Of the owners, The Texas
Co, today, TO tell them how terrific
gales which the bark encountered off
the Virginia capes stripped off her
topmasts, spars and rigging. The
Foehng Suey sailed from Philadelphia
for New Orleans February with a car
go of coal
Hardly had she passed the Virginia
capes when she ran into heavy wealth
er. The gale swept her head around
and a wave, striking her broadside,
shifted the cargo. The bark immedi-
ately listed over on her starboard side
to an angle of so degrees. The upper
spars touch the water. These the sec
ond wave carried away together with
the topmasts and rigging. Meanwhile
all of the crew of IA had been sent
below to shovel coal back to the high
side of the vessel. This was accom-
plished after the men had narrowly es-
capped being buried under the coal and
the ship righted. After desperate
battle Capt. Hayden finally managed
to bring his vessel off the South Shoals
lightship off Nantucket. There the tug
Columbia sighted the disabled vessel
and towed her to port.
