Few Members Present.
NOTHING was done by Congress on the 10Th
inst. Only handful of members were present
in each house. and the proceedings were al
most entirely devoid OF interest The only
relief TO the dull nonotony OF waiting for
the hour of adjournment WAS discussion
IN tho Senate of the question Of freeing
spirits used I'm the arts and manufactures.
Mr. Cockrell presented several letters Of the In
ternal Revenue Commss ioner in reference TO
the facilities for fraud in connection with
methylated alcohol. Mr. Allison contended thnt
every safeguard suggested by the Commissioners
was contained in the Senate tariff BILL and that
IL the present law was sufficient TO prevent IL
legal distillaton the same law would prevent
the redistribution OF methyated alcohol; but all
objections were met by the fact that Great Brit
ain and Germany allowed methylated alcohol TO
be used in the arts and industries. The regua-
lions adopted were not difficult OF enforcement
and could be enforced here.
