Police officials united today in say ing that no additional orders regarding the observance of the Sabbath have been issued. These statements were in response to ciuestibng as to whether the police had been stirred to activity by anything that might have tran spired at the conference held yester day between the heads of the police de partment and Sheriff Harrigan. Chief of Police Corbitt said that there isn't any need for further instructions to th.- men. He said their , orders are explicit now. Captain Michael Ryan, of the First Precinct, said that there would not be any attempt to interfere with Sunday performances at the theatres. The best case in the Columbia Theatre would have to be settled first, ho said. Nickelodeons and saloons would bo kept closed. This Is “as usudl," he added. At the conference held yesterday in the sheriff’s office there were present President Header, pf the Police Board; Chic;' of.Police Corbitt and Captains Tong. Christie, Vogel, .John Brown and Samuel Brown. It is said that the' sheriff told the police that he hud re ceived many complaints of open saloons on Sunday, and that he insisted that they see to it that. «tho doors of every saloon be closed at midnight and kept locked for twenty-four hours When asked what action he would j take in reference to the attitude of Sheriff Harrigan, and what effect it \ ' would have on the Sunday closing of saloons qnd moving picture shows In the Third Precinct.

Counsel for Sutphen Refuses to (jive Testimony. Abruptly ended by the refusal of Cyrus 11. Vail, counsel for Robert Sutphen, to either be sworn or make any statement whatever re garding the Dolly Collins case, on the ground that his client's Interests might be prejudiced, the inquiry into the of licial conduct of Sergeant Joseph Far rell, of the detective bureau, who is said to have accompanied the Collins girl to rVtiv^ York and to have seen her safely on board ship for Ireland, failed to develop anything startling yesterday. The caBO was adjourned for one week. Most of tho testimony which referred directly to ilie case In question was favorable to Farrell, particularly that of Sergeant Thomas F. Connell, who was acting captain of the detective bureau at the time of the arrest of the Collins girl on u shoplifting charge and the subsequent developments. Connell stated, under questioning by Assistan\ City Attorney Charles M. Myers, who conducted tho case for the city, that If a detective sergeant were on a case which needed clearing up and required the officer to go out of the city or State, he (Connell) did not understand that it was necessary to ask permis sion to do so, and that in this partic ular case he considered that Farrell was still on duty In the Collins ease, and that he therefore required no permission to go to Now York, as long as he was bringing the case to a conclusion. The principal Interest in the case centred in the calling of Sutphen, against, whom the girl had brought suit for *10.000 for breach of promise, which suit* had been mysteriously dropped just before Dolly Coiiins left tip country. According to Robert S. Terhune. counsel fnr Sutphen, thd young man stammered so noticeably ' that he requested permission to write his answers to the questions of the police board. Sutphen admitted his re lations with tho girl, but refused to, state whether or not her sailing for the other side was a relief to him or not. Other witnesses to testify were . Superintendant Wlnward, of the de partment store in which the girl was ] arrested: Sergeant Thomas Corbally. i of the detective bureau; Mrs. IV. J. MacDougall and her husband, with whom the Collins girl lived in Warren street; Roundsman 0'N.eill. of the Third Precinct; a Mrs. Roehrlc and on*' or two others whose testimony was un important.
