Sunday Banking Arrest in New York

Felice Sanito, cashier in G. Lordi's bank, at No. 62 Mulberry Street, New York, was arrested May 23 by detectives Coyle and Finn, of the Elizabeth Street Station, on a charge of violating the Sunday law. The detectives said that Lordi as well as other Italian bankers were accustomed to do a heavy banking business on Sundays, and that they wished to make a test case of Lordi's. Sanito admitted the charge to be true, but said he opened to accommodate out-of-town customers.
