Following substitute for the canteen
provision of the bill:
The sale Of or dealing in beer, wine,
or any intoxicating liquors by any per-
son n any post, exchange OF canteen
or army transport or upon any prem
1ses used for military purposes by the
United States is hereby prohibited. The
secretary of war is hereby directed to
carry the provisions of this section
into full force and effect"
The section for which the substitute
was offered, he said, practically was a
re-enactment of the present law.
Mr.. Littleield read a letter from Adj
5utant General Corbin. stating that 30
per cent Of the officers of the army Ia
vored the canteen system. Against the
present opinion of General Corbin Mr..
Littlefield read a statement made by
General Corbin in 1892. condemning the
canteen system as not to the
discipline OR h best interests OF the
soldier.
Mr.. FITZGERALD. of Massachusetts,, op-
posed the amendment and concluded
with an attack upon prohibition as It
obtained in Maine
Mr.. Grosvenor, Of Ohio. declared that
prohibition had been a failure where
ever il had been tried. Nevertheless,
he said, he would vote for the amend
ment.
Mr.. Hay, Of Virginia, favored the
amendment. Aside from the question
OF temperance, he believed it was
wrong for the government to engage in
the sale of liquor. He was opposed to
throwing temptation in the direct path
or young men who entered the army.
He asserted that the evidence of the
army officers was not altogether on
n side Of h question. (Applause).
The amendment was adopted-159 to
81. Many members of the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union were in
the gallery and loudly applauded the
result.
Mr.. Fitzgerald then proposed an
amendment to prohibit the sale of
liquor in the capitol building.
Mr.. Hull made the point of order that
the amendment was not germaine.
Mr.. Fitzgerald said that if the SOL
diers were to be prevented from drink
ing upon the premises of the United
States members of congress should not
be allowed to drink in the capitol.
The chair sustained the point of Or
der. Whereupon Mr.. Williams, of Mis-
sissippi. asked unanimous consent that
Mr.. Fitzgerald be allowed to offer his
amendment.
81 object said Mr.. Spattoc, of ohio.
Mr.. KlutZ, of North Carolina, moved
to strike out the section for the retire
ment of General Shafter as a major
general. He was opposed, he said, to
the promotion and retirement of Off
GERS. The motion prevailed-131 to 100.
Mr.. Jett hen moved to strike out the
e section, which was designed to
retire General Fitzhugh Lee and Cen
eral James II. Wilson, as brigadier
generals and it also prevailed. There
was no division on this vote.
This completed the bill which was
then reported to the house, where Mr..
Mcclellan, of New York. moved to re-
commit the bill with Instructions ITO
report back a bill extending the pres
ent law until July !, 1908.
The motion to recommit was lost-6S
to 248.
A roll call was demanded for the fl
nal passage of the bill. The bill wa
passed-166 to 1873.
At Cos o'clock the house adjourned.

The ceremony was very brief.

lother foreign representatives were in

ance Of peers was unusually large.

leated.
Baron Monk Breton. li~beral-union-
list, seconded the address in the same
lStrain.
Lord Kimberly, the liberal leader in
THE of lords. in the course of his
remarks, animadverted strongly upon
the sudden dissolution OF parliament.
HE demanded a definite pronounce
ment Of the governments policy in
view Of the novel and dangerous char
tacter OF the recrudescence of hostilities
lin South Africa, and explanations of
the alleged crueltieS to the Beers, the
burning of farms and similar severi-
ties. He said al attempt to capture
the Emperor and empress dowager of
China would he an alarming under
taking.
Lord Salisbury, the premier, said:
1.-THE TranSvaalers. the Free Staters
and the world must understand there
can be no deviation from the policy of
government already outlined. Any
thing resembling independence never
can be granted. Tho war must pro-
lceed to tn. inevitable Issue. We must
let it be felt that no one, by the issue
of IN insolent and audaciouS ultima
ltum can force the British government
to humble itself and abandon it's rights.
1t could lever allow that a shred of in
dependence should be left"
Lor Rosebery made a spirited at
tack on the government. He was I'M
Isparing of his criticism of the dissolu-
ton of parliament, the conduct Of the
war, the policy of the government to-
wards China any everything handled
by the cabinet. He referred to the in
l%clusion in the cabinet of several OF
Lord Salisbury'S relatives.
Lord Rosebery's comment on the
charges against Mr.. Chamberlain, the
lsecretary of state for the colonies, was
~lsevere. He said it was evident the
head of the cabinet had failed in
lproper supervision, and the pride of
England in the purity of it's public
men had suffered.
The address was then agreed to and
the house of lords adjourned until
