IN THE SENATE.


The Sunday and Temperance Amend
ments to tho World. Fair Appropria
zion Adopted in cOmmlttSo of th'
Whole.
wAsu1voroN, D. G., July 1.-THE
friends Of due observance OF the Sab
bath and the friends Of temperance
have alike much reason to be satisfied
with the action of the senate today on
the provision for issuing. in aid OF the
Worlds Columbian Exposition, ter
million souvenir halls dollars. The
amendment offered by Mr.. Quay coup
ling with that provision the condition
that the exposition shall not be opened
on Sundays was carried by large ma
jority, and one offered by Mr.. Potter
prohibiting the sale OF Intoxicating
LIQUORS within the exposition grounds
was carried by minority OF two.
The main proposition as reported
from the committee on appropriations
was agreed to without a division. All
OF this action, however. was in commit
tee Of the whole and will be subject to
change when the bill is reported back
to the senate. There will certainly be
an effort to defeat at least Mr.. Pehers
amendment.
Without any morning business the
sundry civil appropriation bill was
Mr.. Sanders moved to lay Mr.. Quay's
amendment on tho table. Rejected,
yeas IL, nays 45.
Mr.. Quay's amendment was then
agreed to without division.
Mr.. PETER offered an amendment to
add to the section provision prohibit
ing the sale or giving away Of intoxl-
catinglieuors OH the exposition grounds,
except for medical, mechanical or sci
entifc purposes. Mr. PETER subse-
quently modified the amendment by
making it apply merely to the sale OF
liquor.
Mr.. Vest ridiculed the amendment,
and said that the eminent reformer'
who had taken hold OF the matter ought
lin order to be consistently include "cig-
arctic smoking in their denunciation--
it being much more to be deprecated
than the drinking of glass Of beer or
wine. But the whole thing was rank
hypocrisy, and senators knew it-rank
hypocrisy.
