OPPOSITION TO EXCISE CHANGES.

tBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNEl
Albany Jan. 22.-Governor Odell said tonight
in response to an inquiry that he had read the
programme the Citizens Conference Committee
Excise had adopted in NewYork last night,
but he made no comment upon 1t. The pro-
gramme was that the Raines law be so amended
as TO provide for the sale of liquors in restau-
rants Sunday. and second. that a special
election should be held in the spring. at which
the people should be invited to vote upon the
question of the Sunday opening of saloons be-
tween the hours of noon and 10 p. IN.
Senator Raines promptly expressed his disap-
proval of the restaurant feature Of this plan.
He said:
Why, If such a law should be passed all the
liquor stores would be at once changed into
restaurants. / once drew up bill authorizing
the sale Of liquor in restaurants on Sunday at
such times as people usually take meals, but
became convinced that it would take the entire
police force of city to restrain the restaurants,
If such law should be passed. from selling
liquor after hours. So L dropped the measure,
and l should not think of introducing it. This
last proposition really comes from the brewers,
who are behind the Sunday opening movement.
If the restaurants should open saloons and
the saloons as restaurants you would see the
last of the movement to open the saloons
Sunday for that would practically open all the
liquor stores Of the city TO the sale of liquor on
Sunday
Senator Higgins, of Olean. said: Il do not be-
lieve the Legislature will grant this year a spring
election in New-York On the liquor question"
Senator Slater said: 1T strikes me that to the
phrase Raines law hotel there would be quickly
added the words Raines law restaurant and
larger amount of liquor than ever would be sold
in New-York on Sunday. Yet l believe with Mr..
Jerome that the people of New-York would vote
down proposition to open the saloons Sun
day. and, personally. am opposed to IT."

II you have not yet requested any member of
the legislature 10 introduce such bill Il would
be great pleasure to me to be of service to you.
as would be at the same time rendering great
service to the citizens of greater New-York.
The answer which the Senator received from the
District Attorney is follows:

excise question
