Of the Chinese Tor Japanesel cheap labor

stated that there is on sale in the New

that produced in Lyons and they promise

PROHIBITION AMENDMENT
MR.. BLAIR, OF THE SENATE COMMIT.
TEE, REPORTS ON IT.
The Submission of the Question to the
Several States Favored as the Only
Way of Settling 1t Finally-Presiden
tial OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Notes.

WASHINGTON, July 9.-The proposition
to submit to the people OF the several
States a constitutional amendment to pro-
hibit the liquor traffic in the United States
was favorably reported by Senator Blair
from the committee on education. The
report accompanying the bill says; "Therc
are members OF the committee who concur
In the report recommending the submis-
sion OF the proposed amendment to the
States, who do not by such action indicate
their approval of the adoption OF the
amendment as part of the constitution,
nor would they themselves advocate its
ratification by the Legislatures OF the
States"
After stating that a majority of the COM
mittee think that refusal to submit the
proposed amendment TO the States for rati-
tication would be analogous TO the denial
OF the right OF party TO be heard IN
court upon q question Of private rights,
the report continues "the agitation for ma
tional legislation for the extirpation Of the
traffic in alcohol poison made and sold TO
be used rs beverage will never cease to
disturb, and finally 10 destroy the great
political parties until they submit to the
States the question of the enlargement Of
national constitutional jurisdiction so as
TO include control of the subject. When
decided If adversely TO the ratification, the
subject will be eliminated from national
politics at least for many years. II, on the
other hand, the proposed amendment
should be ratified and become part OF
the national law, the chief curse of the
world would be summoned TO the block OF
national Justice and die by the hand Of the
only power which can WELD an AK big and
sharp enough 10 cut off the hydra head,
Then We shall have peace. But agitation
for the destruction OF the liquor traffic can
not cease until the evils which it innict,
upon mankind are removed or the humap
race is destroyed. II is useless 10 cry
peace, peace, when there is no peace"

AN UNPLEASANT FEATURE
THE FORGED PARNELL LETTERS.
Labouchere Says the World will be
Astonished when 1t Learns how Easily
the ssTimes'' was Gulled.


Special Cable Dispatch to The EVENING srAn.
LONDON, Oct 3L-Labouchere pledges him
self that Parnell is prepared to prove that the
Times letters were forged, by whom forged
and how the forgeries were bought Labou-
chere adds: 'When all is known the world
will stand aghast at the foolish, wicked credu-
lity Of the Times. No three old women would
have been SO easily gulled. Meanwhile the
Times keeps back consideration of the letters
as long as possible, but the question whether
or not they are genuine is the only one the
public really cares about. Yesterday, how
ever, being the first day of the examination of
witnesses,
ALITTLE MORE INTEREST WAS TAKEN
in the proceedings than heretofore, but the
proceedings were not q bit more lively. The
day was dark and depressing and the court
room, which at best, owing to the fault of the
architect, is never very light, had to be illu-
minated by electric lights from the beginning
of:the sitting. Some mist penetrated from the
outside and the prevailing cheerlessness was
not lessened by the arrival now and then of
somebody in a wet macintosh with dripping
umbrella out OF the rain, which fell without in
termission. Judge Hannen's frmness in pre-
venting the waste Of time as much as Dos
sible Is warmly praised on all sides. No
judge has . greater reputation for the acute
ness with which he seized vital point in order
to expose q fallacy or nip useless argument
in the bud. It being clear that Parnellites did
not object to the production Of the bank books.
the tories were not able to make much capital
out OF the objection raised. An official OF the
the bank is to make clear beyond possibility of
doubt that they only submit to disclose the
private affairs Of customers under the strong
est compulsion for the sake Of their reputation.

No Testimony TODAY

DELAY IN THE Proc dED1Nas OF THE MILITARY
COURT OF INQUIRY INVESTIGATING THE TUNNEL.
The military court of inquiry investigating
the aqueduct tunnel frauds, sitting at the War
Department, held routine meeting to-day at
which nothing Of any importance was done.
The large amount Of work done yesterday has
so swamped the only stenographer on duty at
the court that it was found necessary to skip a
day in the taking Of testimony in order that he
might be given opportunity to make up the
record Of yesterdays proceedings. Conse-
9uently the court devoted to-day's session to
and specifications relating to the lining Of the
tunnel, copies Of which have been furnished
the court by the Chief Of Engineers. There
were no spectators present. Almost the whole
history Of the project was carefully examined
and discussed at some length.
The court will meet tomorrow morning at
10 o'clock. 1t is probable that if the record is
not complete by that time recess will be
taken.

CnIoAeo, Oct s1-John 9. Cooke, president
Of the Cooke Brewing Co., when asked about
the English syndicate that is reported 70 have
been formed for the purpose Of buying & Aner,, !.

cate has been formed"
Would You sell your brewing interest 10
such q syndicate?"
''Most certainly, il they offered enough fer
il. Two Englishmen came 30 me o short time
ago and wanted 10 buy me out"
NEW YORK AND PHILADELPHIA BRKvERrEs
J. II. McAvoy, president Of the AcAvoy Brew
ing Company, said there was no doubt that
such a syndicate had been formed; that IL had
purchased not only the New York breweries Of
II. Clausen a Sons and Flanagan, May Co,
Belts 4 Co., and he heard il rumored that the
Annhauser-B Busch a Co.'S brewery OF st. Louis
and Ehrets' mammoth bottling establishment
OF New York were about 10 go under the con-
troll of the same syndicate. He thought the
object was to find better investment of English
capital. The low rate Of interest in England
to'S per cent-had caused English capitalists
TO invest their money in American industries.
MILWAUKEE BREWERS WILLING TO SELL
MILWAUKEE, Oct Sl.-when questioned about
the purchase of American breweries by the
English syndicate Chas Best, secretary OF the
Best Brewing Co., said that he understood
from a gentleman from New York that the sale
OF the two New York breweries had been mads
some days ago. He had heard nothing further
OF the syndicate's intention. There had beea
no negotiations for the Best brewery. He could
not speak for any Of the other Milwaukee
brewers, though, but said that the Best Brew
ing Co. would not consider any proposition to
sell out. Mr.. Falk, of the Falk Brewing Co.,
said that his company had some time ago re-
ceived inquiries from the English syndicate fo-
the purchase Of their brewery, and he believed
other brewers had received similar inquiries,
but his company had not replied to them. He
thought, though, that any or all of the Milwau-
kee breweries could be bought If they could
get their price.
