THE ORIGINAL PACKAGE.
AsLittle Bill That Slips Through the
House Cause a Stir Among
the Brewers.
w York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service.
Washington, Feb 1O.-A little bill slipped
through the house last month without at
tracing any attention, which has since
caused commotion among the brewers
and distillers of the country. 1T pro-
vided that liquors transported into any
state or territory and after delivery be
subject to the opera tion of the laws OF
such state and shall not be exempt from
such laws by reason of being introduced
in original packages or otherwise.
The effect of the bill If it becomes
law. will be to bar out liquors from pro-
hibition states or districts In states where
prohibition prevails by local option.
Under supreme court decision intoxi-
eating liquors may be sent into any pro-
hibition state, in defiance of state law
and sold to consumers direct, without let
or hindrance Express company offices
all over Iowa have become. mere retail
liquor establishments and the prohibition
law has been nullified The amendment
to the law of 1890, proposed by the bill
which has passed the house. overcomes
the Original package decision by in
Guiding liquors going into the state as
we'll as to thessdistribution after en-
trance. and will make it possible for every
prohibition state in the union to enforce
its laws thoroughly. The democratic
members of the house supported the bill
because it was in harmony with their
ideas regarding states rights They held
that state had a right to enact any
legislation it saw fit under constitutional
limitations, and that no law of congress
should be made interfering with that
right. The original package decision, OF
course, Is a distinct invasion of the
states rights doctrine.

TURF INVESTMENT COMPANY
The Missouri Legislature Starts to
Investigate.

st. Louis, Feb. 1O.-The E. j. Arnold
Turf Investment company, with a paid
up capital of about $1,000, 000 suspended
payment of stock certificates, which on
their face are payable on demand.
The company gives as an explanation
of it's action which has caused the wild
est alarm among stockholders in the city
and country, the fact that the state as
sembly at Jefferson City appointed a COM
mittee to make a searching examination
Of It's books, H. r
The fact that. 900 worth of Arnold
company stock was held in the little town
of Charleston shows the magnitude OF
the company's operations and the extent
of the probable liabilities, although Man
ager Foute claims these are generally
grossly overestimated. The company s
solicitors have been boasting for months
past that the Arnold company controlled
three millions in cash. The Arnold COM
pany gave, no security to stockholders
many of whom sold out small businesses,
and even their homes to secure cash for
this tempting investment e. j. Arnold,
head of the firm, denies that his company
is in danger of going under, and declares
that after the legislative committee com
pletes its investigation and announces its
findings, the temporary suspension OF pay
ments of stock certificates will be raised
| If the Arnold company does not satisfy
the army of investors, the cooperative
bookmaking scheme in the west will DC
ruined.
| If the Arnold company is able to stand
the run which undoubtedly will be made
| upon it for the next few days by alarmed
! stockholders, it will be surprising to those
familiar with the situation.

A CANON FIRES A. SHOT
"Crude and Rude Ideas in Religion
Hell Fire Is Con- i
demned. ..
New York Sun Special Service.

London. Feb 10-One OF those pro-
nouncements condemning hell fire theology
which, though never new, always causes
launched by a prominent ecclesiastic,
startled the congregation of st. Peters
church in We're street yesterday, one of
the most fashionable West End churches.
Canon Page Roberts, dwelling upon the
Drigin Of what he called the crude and
rude ideas in all religions. remarked that
such ideas formed a necessary stage in
the development Of all theories. In sci
ence and philosophy they were put aside
when the higher stage was reached. It
was only in theology that man refused to
accept progress. The early fathers and
medieval monks preached entirely of the
wrath to come. The Sistine picture of
Christ on the judgment day was a concep-
tion of almost inhuman cruelty. The
reformation deepened the belief in ma
terial hell fire and defined the bottomless
pit. The, Roman church, more human in
Its sympathy, created, rightly or wrongly,
a purgatory. The conception of God
which represented him as being capable
of casting aside his weak, erring creatures
promiscuously, even contemptuously. was
q libel, an abominable' lie. The canon
declared that all honor was due the au-
thorities Of Westminster abbey who had
the courage to suppress the damnatory
clauses of the Athanasian creed. He
besought his hearers to advance with per-
feet trust and reliance upon the goodness
of God, whom they addressed as "Oul
Father"

GOING BACK TO MANILA GENT. AMERICA AFLAME1
A War Between Guatemala and the
Combined Forces of San Saliva
dor and Honduras.

London, Feb 10.-The Daily Mail this
morning publishes a dispatch from Qua
temala declaring that war has been pro-
claimed between Guatemala one one SIDE
and San Salvador and Honduras on the
other.
According to previous dispatches from
Panama, Guatemala and Salvador were
on the point of war at the beginning or
this month The Salvadorean and Guate-
malan armies commanded by their re-
spective presidents, Generals Regalado
and Cabrera, were on the frontier, ac-
| companied by revolutionary refugees.
| Troops were constantly leaving the capi-

Guatemalan frontier Nicaragua was ac-

come of the congress of the Central
l American republics at Corinto, Mica
ragua, last year, at which treaty was
drawn up and subsequently signed, pro-
i viding for arbitration Of every disagree

understanding occurred between Presi-
dent Regalado of Salvador and President
