SATURDAY, OCTOBER 26, 187: THE SUNDAY LAW. Lontinued Agitation of the Hove- ment to Close the Saloons The Temperance Committees Arrayed in Solid Phalanx, Fayor Medill Hedged In Be« tween Two Fires. The Opponents of Sunday Beer Demand the Revocation of Licenses, and Arrest and Imprisonment of Venders. Addresses to the People of Chi- cago and the Mayor. The Sunday question still occupies a large share of public aitention, and is talked wbout by all classes of citizens. Almost every one is of opinion that the enforcement of the 1aw next Sunday will be a failure, and many an- ticipate a “lively time.” There will certainly be & demonstration of some kind, and there will ‘probably be more noise and music in the streets than on anyprevious Sundayfor many years. It was expected that the committee appointed by the German mass-meeting to inform the Mayor of their sction, would wait on His Honor yesterday, and formally present him with the anti-Sunday resolutions. Whether the Mayor wiched to_ avoid & meeting wil it is impossible them, 1o tell, bu ho failed to meko his appearance at ‘his office during the entire afternoon. He did rush through the Sccretaries’ room into the Comptroller’s office about § o'clock to attend & meeting of the Council Finance Committes; but, it having been whispered around that tho ‘Committes of Fifteen, and a delegation from ‘the Committee of Seventy also, intended to in- terview him, he disappeared suddenly, and conld not be found. He is absolutely ““hounded to death,” and cortainly cannot be blamed for de- eiring to eacape the torture of endless talk. THE COMMITTEE OF FIFTEEN held » mecting at the room of the Temperance ‘Bureau, No. 172 East Adems street, atb 2 o’clock in the afternoon, Rev. Dr. Everts in the chair. A resolution reguemng the Young Men's Christian Association and the Young Men’s Tnion to establish reading and coffes rooms in the different portions of the city—tle coffee to be furnished at cost, and reading matter free— ‘was adopted. On motion, it was resolved to ‘hold a public Temperance meeting in each division of the city Text Thursday night. The pastors of churches are requested to recommend to their congregations to set aside xext Wednesday a8 a dsy of prayer for the suc- ‘cess of the temperance movement and the Sun- day laws. ADDBESS TO THE PEOFLE. The following ““address to the people” was submitted, and accepted: To the People of Chicago : “There appears to be 3 misepprehension on the part of the press, and in the minds of many of our rcitizens, in regard to the propoeed action of those fa~ vorable' to the continusnce and enforcement of the Sunday liquor law, and of tho statute enacted Tast against the evi resulting ond use of ntoxicating liguors, It s no partizan move ment in which we are engoged, We have no desire to enter the arena cf politics, if it is possible fo accom- plish our objects in any other way, Wehave no desire o put candidates in the field, except where itis abso- Jutely necessary to prevent tho repeal or non-enforce- ment of the lsws in question. We greatly prefer to seustain the candidates alrendy nominated who are fa- ~Vorable to law and order, as represented in the great ‘nass meeting of our citizens from which we derived our ‘appointment, but the issue hos been forced upon 5. Early in the season the liquor interests of the city nd State commenced the formation of Personal Lib- erty Leagues with a view of controlling the nomins- tion and election of Legislative and Executive officers “wherever possible; and, within a few days, the same 3nterest has held large public meelings, where they Ihave resolved to use ail means in their power to repeal ‘the laws prohibiting the ale of intoxicating liguors on Sunday, or which make the liquor-seller lable for the damage which he may inflict, to Tequest the Mayornot 20 enforce said laws, and to strike from the list of Jegisiative and county and city candidates all who do 116t favor the repeal of the Temperance and Sunday e, : We propose to meet this issue, and, in the effort to wtem the tido of intemperance, vice and crime, the Jegitimate and inevitable Tesult and consequence of the liquor traffic, and especially of tho Sundsy liguor truffic, wo invoke not the aid of the professed temper- ance and Christian men alone, but of every good citizen and every friend of law and order. Ve have the authority of thn States Attorney for saying that two-thirds of the criminal business of his ‘office wwonld be abolished if the laws against the Stn- dsy liquor trafic are enforced. ~Wo Dave the Buthority of Judges of Courts, and of all who have Tiad anything to do with criminal jurispradence in all mgesand all countries, for saying that at least three Lourths of all crime is the result directly or indirectly of the sale and use of intoxicating liquors. Our own experience of last Sunday is_{ully confirmatory of the statement of our excellent Prosecuting Attorney. Now, fellow-citizens, the question is squarely before wus, Shall we permit the laws which, if enforced, will “prevent 50 much vice,and crime,and taxation, ef Temain » dead-letter upon our statute books, or be re- -pealed in the interests of the promoters of this vice, Crime, and taxation? Thisis the iesue madoupby “the liguor-scllers, by$lieir leagues, and in public meet- ing assembled. 1sit not worth whilo to make an effort to_ enforce a law which Wil prevent two- thirds of our crimipal _offences, and thoso of the gravest character, which will relieve us of an untold amount of poverty, wretchedness, and wos, and o inconsiderable portion of the taxes to which honest Zabor and legitimate business are subject? Does it not 3nvolve interests and considerations infinitely higher ‘and more important to society than our partizanship? We have pleasure in saying that we find_ gentlemen in omination for various oflices to be filled, and in both ‘parties, of the highest character, for whom every Triend of law and order can safely ard cheerfully vote, We find others simply the_representatives of the sa- loonsand of the liquor interest, for whom mo good citizen chould cast his ballot. - For these theso olome, we desire and proposs to eubstitute other and better men. To this end we invoke the nid of the friends of the movement in every ward, town, and precinct in Cook County. It is desirable that as many public ‘meetings as possible should be held in every ward in the city, and in the towns of the county, between this time and the election. We are confident that s large majority of the people of the city and county will cnroll themselves on the 2ide of law and order, whenever the questions in- Yolved in the movement’ are fairly luid befors them. Yohat we want now is earncst work along the whols Lne. 3 On behalf of the Committee of Seventy, “WILLARD WOODARD. On behalf of the Committee of fi.(t%‘e'n,w On behalf of the Committee on Elections. . A. L. MORRIFON, WHAT CONSTITUTES A * TIPPLING-HOUSE.” The subjoined document was submitted by Mr. Mears, and the reporters were requested to publishit: To correct the impressions of any parties who msy think that the question of what constitutesa * tippling- ‘honse,” or whether 3 beer saloon is within the probi- bition of the law, we desire you to publish the following summary from one of the latest and leading cases on the subject, decided by the Supreme Court of this State, This 18 the law 25 eeltled, and parties ehould govern themselves ac- cordingly. In the case of Koop v. Tho Peoplo of tho State of Tilinoie, decided at tho June term, 1858, and reported ir.

The proof that defendant kept o tippling-houso would be estab- Jithed by proof that he kepta grocery or driuking saloon or the sale of fstrong drinks. A ‘tippling-house” is efined to be a ¢ public drinking house.’ In such ‘ouses nsually stimulating beverages aro kept on sale. To this beer only was eold. Beer was the defendant’s epecia ty.

The Committee intended to call on the Mayor during the afternoon, and submit to him am 2d- dress for his consideration, Having learned that ho was not in his office, and would mot probably bo there until 10. oclock this morning, they enclosed the document in an envelope, and despatched a small boy with it to His Honor's residence, on Michigan avenue. The Committes have heard the rumors that nearly all the saloon-heepers have determined to open their places next Sunday,and henca ut} de@ermlt:e? to Exi and support the Mayor in enforeing the law. Appended is the téxtof their address to him: B Sm: The Committes of Fiftcen, representing the lsw-abiding and the moral and reé?&loug sentiment of the citizens of Chicago, bereby congratulate you Tpon the efficiency of the orders issued by you for the clos- ing of the saloons on lmst Sundsy, and 2150 upon the unusual quiet and good order that generally prevailed in consequence thereof ; and tho almost entire absence of crime within the limitsof {he whole city, Every law-abiding citizen was well pleased with the result, Over twenty-two hundred saloon-keepers voluntarily closed their doors, and many expreseed themselves bighly gratified at the new order of things. Thero was an almost fotal abe Benco of rowdyism upon the publicstrects ; women and children passed unmolested, ond witbout insuls throughout the city. A universal feeling of contente ment wes marred only by the fact that here ond there a saloon-keeper bade defisnce to ‘the Ilaw ond the authorities for enforeing it ; and, in one case, an Alderman now in the Common Council of the city, set the bad example of defying the Iaws made by the body of which he s a ‘member, encouraging others to do likewise, and this in view of four policemen, who, when Tequested by the citizens to arrest Lim, replied that they bad no ordera to do 50, although the violation was shameless and pal- “Ttis not meet that the law should bo evaded under WASHINGTON.

If these 118 should go unpunished their numbers would doubtless receive a large accession on next Sunday. To prevent such o crisis from arising, we 8sk you to exercise some of the powers conferred upon 30U by faw. By keeping open lust Sunday, these men have Tiolated tho condition of their bonds, and we ask you to institute proceedings at once upon those bonds for violation thereof. The evidence already within your reach will show a forfeiture. mand that the license .f every ealoon-keeper that shall open s F-.ce of busincss, of in any manner violate section 4, ¢ chapter 25, f the city ordinances, on next Sunday, shall be immeaiately revoled, and ‘that mo- tice be given that such course will be pursued.

The citizens of Chi- ccago regard these low-breakers and their followers as the authors of nearly all the crime within its borders, and demand that their punishment shall be summary, 26 3 warning toothers, If they aro allowed to violata Jaws with impunity, no power in_the city can prevent 2900 other saloon-Keepers from doing the same thing, Therefore, we implore you, 28 the recognized exocutive 3 of law, to_exert, without fear or favor, some of the vast powers with which you are clothed, There is no question in the minds of the citizens but what you possess the necessary authority to keep the Baloons closed on Snnday, and we doubb not that the Gitizens, 05 & mass, are ready to support you in any emergency that may ‘arise, if you only boldly and fear- fesuy'do’our duty andesize Your pover to be re- spectes o understand the programme of the liquor-scllers to be to procrastinste all suits that may be brought against them, and, in the meantime, to proceed to open.

Inert and utile would all criminal laws be if the criminal was only subject fo o summons to appear and answer 0 “the charges against him, and if, with ewaggering braggadocia, he were allowed to repeat his offence without restraint of his personal liberty. In’ Short, sre respectfully demand that if the question of he constitutionality of the laws and ordinances, which v peen sustaiaed over and over again, many times by our Supreme Court, i8 fo be again tried, that the oZiminals who have rendered themselves amenable to fhem shall be safely kept, and their plnces absolutcly tlosed until the question is decided; and that they £1all not be allowed to bring our city government into “ontempt and continue to manufaoiure criminals for {ho halter and the Penitentiary, until it is definitely settled whether the people havo any rights which they are bound to respect. Tt thero is any doubt sbout the adequacy of the ‘prosent police forco to_executo the law, let special Police be sworn in for that purpose, slthough the police hemselves report that they have bad more time to Sratch tho saloons last Sundsy on account of the sb- fence of other crimes and the usual number of drunken Tnen; and there were many_empty cells at the etation Bouses, usually filled by intoxicated and disorderly Derdons, . In fact, the closing of each saloon adds ta Tho effoetive power of the police: ° e opinion is that 4 proclamation from you, or imequivocal _cxpression of tho _lime of intend to pursme, would have good offect 1n maintaid good, ‘order, and dispelling any doubts that msy remain in ‘Phe minds of those who are debating whether or not fhoy shall violate the law.

We are much pleased to know that a majority of the saloon-keepers are_willing to sustain any action you Tmay take, provided it is impartial in its operation, and 1s not marked by fluctuations or an undecisive policy. o believe a bold and unfaltering course, publicly de- clared, will be succeseful. ‘Sincerely sympathizing with you, and fully recog- nizing the great responsibilities that rest upon you in the government of a mixed, energetic, snd somewhat tur- falont people,” we pledge you, on behalf of all good citizens, their moral and religious suport, Rey.

Thompson; to-morrow morning : Terag HA . 25, o the Editor o the Eeproso: - e a8 you did in the Ez- You are right in_saying, press of this morning, that the connection of my name with & supposed plot to defeat the elec- tion of Governor Morton to_the Senate is en- tirely without my authority. I have neither dons nor contemfilm.ed nnything of the kind, and ghall not. My wish to see the rank of the Re- publican party remain unbroken is so stron that if I desired to go to the Senate I would noi do 80 af the expenss of its unity. But I have no such desire, greatly preferring to remain & private citizen and never again to hold a politi- cal office of any kind.

AuroRa, L., Oct. 25.—A terrible accident oc- curred this morning, resulting in the death of tho assistant editorand businees manager of tho Aurorn Herald, Mr. M. B. Matingly. . The gentlemen, while walking on the beank of the Tace from the silver plste factory, was seized with an apoplectic fit, and falling forward on his face received & cut on_ his templo which would, of itself, have _stunmed him and rendered him powerless. In this con- dition he was drowned, althongh the Tace was not overa foot deep, and streams of penflplo were passing within fifty feet of him. The affair has cast a gloom over the city, for, althous L a new-comer, he was highly esfeemod by S fice circloof friends. His remains will be “escorted to tho cars for Plymounth, Ind., by the members of Oriflsamme Lodge, Knights of Pythias, of which order he had just been made & member. He leaves & wife and one child. S RS WAYLAID AND ROBBED. If the young men of Bridgepork deserve credit for anything, it isfor the courtésy and polite- ness with which they treat strangers. The fol- lowing will show how they conduct them- golves in this respect : At alate hour last even- ing two young men from Brainwood, named Daniel Dougherty and James Farley, ~while strolling through thoe streets of that plensant district, mot a party of fivo gentlomen at the corner of Halsted and O'Neill streots, and ven- tured to inquire the way to 2 certain houge on Archer avenue, for which they had been gearch- ing for some time. The gentlomen directed them through a dark and narrow streot, and after they hed proceeded a short distance, followed them, knocked them down, and robbed them of their money and watches. The young strangors managed to_escape from them’ with their lives, and succeeded in reaching the sub-station on Archer avenue, whero they gave a glowing ac- connt of the hospitable treatment they had re- ceived &t the hands of the gen- tlemanly _quintette. Offlcer Marmont was instructed to recover the stolen prtigerty and bring in the thieves without delay. o visited several low saloons, and finelly found them in tho doggery kept by John Maker, at 915 South Halsted street. At the station they were regie- tered as William Grant, Thomas Bm‘keg;[‘homu e! Healey, Willism Clooney, and Luke Sheridan. They are choice specimens of the average Bridge- port youth.

AUSTRIA, < Wasarxarox, Oct. 5.—The recently published red book of Austris coptains the text of Prince Bismarck's despatch of April 26, 1872, in relation $o the action of the Austro-Hungarian Govern- ment upon the proposition of Frauce for a modi~ fication of the Branco-Austrian treaty of naviga~ tion, Dec. 11, 1866, and of ‘*‘tariff A" of the treaty of commerce of the same date. The fol- lowing synopsis of the despatch is furnished by the Acting Chief of the Bureau of Statistics: The German Chancellor expresses his firm in- terest in o communication Wherein Austriz announced that she hod, for general reasons rather than from coasiderations nflecfingrhez own interests, declined to accede to the Erench proposition. He regards this action of the 'Austro-Hungarian Government as of great value to* Germany and other European States for the reason that the treaties which Francein this case ;)ropoies to modify continue in force until 1876, & longer period than similar treaties of France with other countries have to run. S0 long s these treaties with Austria are in force, the rights therein guaranteed to that power will be anjozred by, countries which arc entitled to be ireated by France on the same _ footin, a8 the most favored nation. Theso tresties were part of the liberal commercial systom which France had the credit of initiating. If the present retrogade movement of that country should result in restoring the obstruc- tions to the freedom of commercial intercourse which had been Bwept away, new industrial in- tereats based on those very obstructions would soon appear, and these would lend_their power to_prevent a return to s liberal commercial policy. It is, therefors, says the Chancellor, the ‘common interest of every European State that the commercial treaties concluded - h}:fi France at. @ former period _ &l remain in force, until public opinion in France has overcome the now prevailing inclination in favor of a protective fariff. 1t is to be looked on ao o fortrinate circumstance for the commer- cial development of Enrog;!, that the Govern- ment of the Btate to which the present situation has accorded so_decisive en instance of litico-commercial development of Eurone, clear- 1y recognized the obligations this situation im- poses, and is ready to Alschorge it.
