GUTTS DISMISSES CASEAGAINST SALOON MAN

Money to Burn

BIG FIRE ON NEW

YORK WATER FRONT

Judge Curts this morning dismissedthe case against A. S. Hole, chargedwith keeping his saloon, the Californiawine room, open on Sunday. Thecomplaint was filed Tuesday by Rev.L. R. Kufus and charged Holt withviolating ordinance 124, which was

supposed to make it a misdemeanor to

keep a saloon open on the Sabbath.A demurer was filed to the complaintoy the attorney for the defense, IraThomas, which contended that the

orr'inance was it)valid and of no effeotas far as the criminal portion of it wasconcerned, which made Suunay cpen-iug unlawful. It jwai further con-

tended that even were this not true

the complaint itself was lacking intacts and did not state the cause ofaction or ciime. The demurer wasslustained by Judge Cutts who didnet announcs which theory he sustain-ed it.

As toe matter now stands it rmy

bo assumed that there is no valid or-

dinanoe of this city against keepingsaloons or any other placa of businessopen on Sunday.

Rev. Kufus states that the case willby no means be dropped and if it isfound, after a thorough investigationof the city laws, to be impossible to

secure a conviction, the matter willbe

taken up under the state laws whichare very plain on the subject.

It is probable that complaints willbe

sworn out against the other fivesaloons which Mr. Kufus found openon Sunday, December 17.
