ALLEY WAYS IN SQUARE 178, Some time ago, when square 178 was subdi- Vided, certain proposed alleys were approved by the Commissioners, After a short period it Was decided to cut new alleys. This was done, the consent of the prop- erty owners at the time beim ob- tained according to law. Their cot ever, was never filed, which was required by law. The elimination of the old alley pro- duced Riggs place, and last month Mr. John Selden requested that a new order be issued confirming the former action of the owners approving the subdivision in that square. The Matter was referred to the surveyor of the District, who reported that he was unable to state whether the act approved July, 1982, re luting to the closing of alleys, has been plied with. Capt Roasell, in’ his indorsement Upon the papers for the action of the Commis- moners, says that the alley ways originally ex- isting have been taken up and’ new alley w: cut through, but as faras the records of the District go they do not show that the require- Ments of the act of July 2, 1852, under whic this case comes. have been complied with. He recommends that the owners be required to comply with the law. after which the new plot ean be put on record. The Commissioners this afternoon at board session approved his rec- ommendation, —_ Selling Liquor Without a License. Jacob Mueller, who keeps a store at 13th and E streets southeast, was tried in the Police Court yesterday for keeping an unlicensed bar, He was defended by Lawyer Closs. Policeman Stahl appeared as prosecuting witness and @alled several other witnesses to prove the sale Of iqaors by the defendant. Among the w: Bessex was an eleveu-vear-old boy named Bronk Ballinger. He sald he knew what it was to be sworn, and said that if he told a lie he would be sent to the reform school. Frank told of the purchase of 10 cents’ worth of laqnor, which he and other boys drank and were made drunk.

THE MEETING IN THE RINK LAST NIGHT—WaR™ SPEECHES IN A COLD HALL — ARGUMENTS AGAINST THE PROPOSED LEGISLATION—ITS CON- STITUTIONALITY QUESTIONED — AN EX-CAR DRIVER'S STORY OF COMPULSORY SUNDAY Work. Sunday legislation was the subject of the ad- dresses made ata public meeting held last eve- ning at the Ne® York avenue rink. The heat that comes from lighted gas jets and the grouping together of two or three hundred people was hardly sufficient to overcome the winter chill of the large hall. A majority of the men in the audience kept their hats on and the ladies drew their wraps closely about them, but nearly all sat through the speeches. The meeting was held in response to a call signed by a number of citizens whose attention had been called to the matter mainly through the work of the National religions liberty associa- tion. A number of the leading representatives of this organization are now in the city for the Purpose of approving the bill introduced in the House by Mr, Breckinridge, which is de signed to prevent persons from being forced to labor on Sunday in the District. The ussoci tion, while deolaring in its platform its bel: in religion and its opposition to the liquor traftic, is opposed to all religious legislation as tending to unite church and state. GES. BIRNEY ON THE OLD MARYLAND SUNDAY Laws. Gen, Wm. Birney was asked to preside und in his opening address he spoke of the Sunday law of the District, which is the old Maryland statute that has been in force for over one hun- dred und fifty years, He read some of the pro- visions of this law, such as those which author- ized the punishment of Unitarians by pierc- ing their tongues, the branding of blasphemers and the penalties imposed on Sabbath break- ers.. While this law was still in force, yet it had become obsolete, und the speaker said that this fact proved that the sentiment of the day was against laws of that character. Unlike other laws the Sunday laws had never been modified. He then gave a general resume of the condi- tion of Sunday legislation in this country and said that existing laws were based upon sani- tary reasons or were designed to prevent dis- order and drunkenness. The courts, he said, had not generally maintained the legality of sanitary Sunday legislation. and the general laws were ample to secure the other objects named, EDITOR JONES CRITICISES THE BRECKINRIDGE BILL, The first speaker of the evening was Mr. A. T. Jones, editor of the American Sentinel, a newspaper published in New York city, as the organ of the Keligious liberty association, He devoted his time to the analysis of. the Breck- inridge bill, and said that the title “to prevent Persons from being forced to labor on Sun- was misleading, as there was no one who was forced to labor on Sunday in the District. The Constitution, which forbids involuntary servitude, was a protection against any inva- sion of personal rights of this character. He announced that he was opposed to the bill, not because he was not a Christian, but because he was. He argued that the prohibition of “any seenlar labor or business” was equivalent to providing for religious and spiritual exercises, and he claimed that this was beyond the power of Congress, For, he said, that secular work meant worldly work, and the only kind of work except worldly work was spiritual work. In his opinion CONGRESS HAD NO KNOWLEDGE BEYOND THIS WORLD, and it therefore could not prescribe duties for people who were not of this world. He de- nied that under the present laws everybody had the right to rest on Sund: There were laws to prevent the disturbance of public wor- slip. He referred to tne Blair bill and said that those who observed Suuday ought to op- pose it. This bill provided that nothing should be done at periods of the day best suited to the | general convenience and the due observance of the day. It was left to Congress to determine what the due observance of the day 1s, and hence cach must worship according to the di tates of Co asand not of their conscienc In the Breckinridge bill he thought that the provision exempting those who observe any other day as a day of rest was unjust. | THE FROPOSED LEGISLATION SAID TO BE UNcoN- | STITUTIONAL, The next speaker, R. A. Steele of this cit: made an argument against the bill, which was | based on the first amendment to the Constitu- | tion, which prohibits the passage of any law re- specting the establishment of religion or its free exercise, He wasof the opinion that such a bill was unconstitutional and that is would be so decided when it came betore Congress for discussion. “A BILL TO MAKE HYPOCRITES” is what Mr. Lewis Abrahams of this city, who next took the platform, thinks would bea more appropriate title for the Breckinridge bill than the one it now has, He regarded this bill as an entering wedge for other measures which wouid deprive the citizens of this coun- try of their liberties, It was an attempt to unite church and state. While the bill mi: not be hurtrul in itself. yet the mage lay what might follow on the same line. He thought this bill was part of a scheme to bind the citizens in the chains of the priesthood, It was a confession on the part of the church | that its work is a failure. Their ¢ ix now, | Give us a policeman’s club” to enforce what preaching has failed to enforce. The next step, said the speaker, would be to ask for bayonets, He d that such laws would enable policemen to tthe Capitol aud arrest members tor holding Sunday sessions, SUNDAY WORK IN THE DISTRICT. The statsment made by a previous speaker that no one was compelled to work on unday in the District was denied by the next speaker, Chas. W. Proctor, a member of the police e. He said he used to be astreet-car driver, i when he refused to work on Sunday, al- though the rule then was “two Sundays off and two on.” his car was taken from him for a fe days. He knew of others employed on ¢ railroads, in hotels, restanrants and in other places who were compelled to work on Sunda jod’s commandment to keep the Sabbath was qually as binding as the commandment pro- hibiting stealing, murder, &ce. He believed in Sunday laws and hoped that the bill would pass. It does not interfere, he thought. with the rights of any man, but provides a day of rest which belongs ll and was intended for all, As assistant license a dus duties had obliged him to go into saloons, brothels and other placesof vice, It seemed to him that he liad visited a hell on carth These places were worse on Sunday and favored any legislation which limited their power of doing harm. ANOTHER MEMBER OF THE RELIGIOUS LIBERTY ASSOCIATION. J. O. Corliss, a member of the Religious lib- erty association, was the next speaker. He | denied that all laws were founded on the laws | of God. If it was true then it would be neces- sary to have an inquisition or some method of ching the heart of man in order to prop- enforce ws of God. For these laws signates the thoughts of hatred in the heart as murder and the looking npon a woman to lust after her as aduitery. He was opposed to mixing up civil and and religious laws or ad- ministration. He thought that any Sunday legislation wag injurious that made certain | medium sold from 3},¢. to 3!yc. per pound, application are left to the arbitrary D ag oop ites. Under such a oF caprice of police law street care, ral trains, steam boateand private carriages might be stopped and a citi- zen might be fined for preaching, for himself or having his dinner cooked on Sunday. Third. Such a law would be a departure from the fundamental poor of the institutions of this country, which recognizes the right of a citizen todo as he pleases, provided hé does not encroach upon the rights of others; and it empowers a police judge to inquire into and decide upon the conscientious beliefs of any citizen charged with doing or causing to be done secular work on Sunday, Fourth. The passage of such a law is de- signed. and in effect would be, an entering wedge fora system of aggressive laws tending to subvert the secular character of our govern- ment in derogation of the Constitution and the eas freedom of the citizens guaranteed ereby. Fifth. The proposed law partakes of the most offensive features of the early laws of New England, Maryland and other colonies of the olden time, known as “blue laws,” and is there- fore a long step backward instead of forward in human progrets, THEY WILL KEEP UP THE FIGHT. Before the audience dispersed G. E. Fifield, a member of the association, made a vigorous address in opposition to the bill. There are a number of representatives of the association in ths city at present, They are circulating petitions for signatures of those op- | posed to the bili and they intend to appear be- fore the committees of Congress to oppose its passage, A plain has also been determined upon of holding public meetings in various portions of the city to arouse public interest, TRIAL FOR MANSLAUGHTER, Trouble Between Children Leads to a Fatal Conflict Between Two Men. Inthe Criminal Court, Chief Justice Bing- ham, the trial of Frederick Pinkney, col- ored, for manslaughter, in causing the death of James Henry by stabbing him in the neck May 27, has been in progress—Mr. T. C. Taylor for the defendant and Mr. Lipscomb for the government, it is alleged that a difficulty between chil- dren led to an altercation between the men, and that the accused used a knife, inflicting the following wounds on Henry: On the left shoulder, on the left arm (extending to the bone, taking a chip off), over the left ear and in the neck, the latter severing the carotid tery and other important blood vessels, It is claimed by the detendant that the deceased was endeavoring to enter his house and he re- pelled him, as he had the right to do, Matthew Carter. colored, was the first wit- ness to the occurrence examined. He testified that the two men lived « couple of doors apart on 3d street near Pennsylvania avenue south- east. Witness was at Henry's house when Pinkney asked if he was the proprietor. Henry was in the yard, Pinkney came back in a few minutes and told Henry he wanted to see him and they went out talking about the children, Henry had a cowhide in his hand saying that he had chastised his children. They got into a dispute and Henry struck him (Pinkney) with the cowhide. Yesterday several witnesses testified to the good reputation of defendant, The defendant went on the stand and insisted that he had used no weapon in the melee except the cowhide which he had taken away from | Henry, when the latter struck him with it, After recess prayers were offered, and while they were being discussed Mr. Philip Hazel, a juror, was taken ill and was removed to the bailiffs room. When he recovered Dr. G. L. d that the wounds on the neck Coun- en proceeded with arguments, Chief Justice Bingham this morning charged the jury that if they believed the blows on the head of defendant deprived him of reason he would not be guilty. If they found that he was not in danger of great bodily harm when he inflicted the wounds which caused death he should be convicted. A VERDICT OF GUILTY, The jury after over an hours’ deliberation found a verdict of guilty, Cattle Market.

When those im favor of this law, said the speaker, maintained that they only wanted to enforce the eivil day they were mis- leading us. What they were after was to enforce religious respect for that day. The way to enforce Sabbath observance was by in- dividual work and not b; islation, If there were slums in the city the ministers ought to go down and estublish their work there and not look to Congress to redeem the waste places, It was virtually, he said, asking Con- xress to earn their salaries for them. The gov- ernment, he maintained, had charge of civil laws, while God is the wuthor and enforcer of religious laws. When the government steps in toenforce religious laws then it, practically makes itself God's guardian and assumes to do what He is unable to do Himself.

Judge Miller Will Not Recognize a Dee posit Left With the Commissioners, In the liquor cases heard in the Police Court facts have been shown that develop a differ- ence of opinion between the Police Court and the District Commissioners in relation to the liquor business. When » saloon keeper's de- posit is in the hands of the Commis- sioners it is generally conceded by the District officials that the saloon keeper can continue his business as though he had a license. In ‘the case of Patrick Quirk. who was before the Police Court this morning charged with violat- ing the Sunday law, it was shown that Mr. Quirk’s application for a license was rejected and ® eecond application was made, but has not yet been disposed of by the Commissioners. Mr. Quirk, like many others in the same situation, has contin- ued to transact business, ‘The District proved that liquor was sold in the defendant's place on Sunday, but Mr. Shil- lington, for the defendant, raised the point that his client had no license. Judge Miller gave notice that unless a gen- uine paper license could be proven he would hold that the saloon keeper had no license. No notice, he said, will be taken of the fact that the $100 deposit is in the hands of the Com- missioners, The charge of keepmg a Sunda: bar was then dismissed and Mr. Dumont file an information for keeping an unlicensed bar. A continuance of ten days was granted.
