Mr.. Bartholdt's Opposition.

Representing the German-American Al
lance. representative Bartholdt Of Mis-
souri, advocated unfavorable action by the
committee on any OF the resolutions and
bills relating to the liquor subject. He
said that the alliance has membership in
thirty-six states Of the Union. and that
the German-Americans were not in favor
of government interference with the ques-
ton of prohibition in any way.
To his statement that in passing legis-
lation curtailing federal liquor licenses
hibition. Senator Nelson a member of the
committee. made objection. He said it
was a matter of leaving such q queS-
tion to the states.
Representative Bartholdt expressed his
disapproval of local option. or any laws
from exercising his own Judgment as to
how much liquor he should consume. He
considered that such a course would be in
violation of the Constitution.
Mr. Yerkes, former commissioner of in
ternal revenue, expressed disapproval of
in prohibition states, on the ground that
it puts the states in the position of in
voking federal law to cause their own
laws to take effect. He believed that the
abolition of federal. licenses in certain
states and the issuing of them in others
would put the government in an absurd
position.
Senator Dolliver also appeared before
the committee. He said he had been in
terested for eight years in measures reg
ulating the governments connection with
liquor traffic, and hoped the committee
would be able to reach some favorable
conclusion on the bills Of that nature be-
fore it.
Further hearings on the liquor bills and
resolutions will be held next Saturday.

Supreme Courts Attitude,

Senator Tillman called attention to the
Supreme COURTS first decision under the
Wilson law, saying that the constitutions
ality of the bill had been there sustained
and that in it the court had held that
Congress has the power to relinquish its
control Of liquor as an article of inter
state commerce and let the police power
Of the states attach.
He begged the committee not to delay
In reporting the bill. Get 1t into the
Senate" he urged, "and let the Senate
deal with it,
Asked to discuss the wisdom of the
measure. he declined. saying that "any
student of human affairs will tell you that
whisky is the most potent as well as the
most prolific cause Of crime and misery in
operation in this or any other country"
and he believed it necessary to invoke
the power of the federal government to
perfect the regulation Of the traffic in
states which already have acted in that
direction

INTERSTATE LIQUOR TRADE
MR.. TILLMAN URGES HIS BILL
BEFORE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE
Aspects Of the Cues
tion Discussed by the Senator's.
Action Urged.

The Senate committee on the judiciary
today took up the various prohibition
measures before 1t and heard Senator
Tillman on his bill regulating the impor-
tation of liquor into one state from
another. He argued that it was compe-
tent for Congress to take in hand this
question and relegate it to the control
of the states as police power.
Senator Bacon asked a great many
questions intended to develop the consti-
tutional problems involved, among them
one which was directed toward drawing
out Mr.. Tillmans opinion on the di1er-
ence between Congress granting authority
to state to confiscate and destroy small
pox-infected clothing coming into state
and its granting the same authority to
confiscate and destroy whisky.
Powers Of Congress.
Mr.. Tillman said that las a matter of
cdmmon sense" he would say that Con-
gress would not direct the destruction
of the clothing, but, ''as matter Of law
it could authorize the state to do SO.
There could be no limitation on the state 8
police power; If it should pass laws that
were drastic or silly public opinion would
deal with them and with the laW-making
power.
A colloquy arose between the two
southern senator's as to the power of
Congress to designate the articles of in
terState commerce, and Mr.. Nelson point
ed out that the Constitution does not de-
fine interstate commerce, but simply
gives Congress power to regulate it.
Suppose" he said, twenty three of the
forty-six states have prohibition laws
and in the other twenty-three the manu-
facture and sale of liquor is permitted,
have the latter twenty-three states the
power to impose the traffic on the other
tWenty-three? And can Congress SO legis-
late and the Supreme Court SO direct?''
Responding to this inquiry Senator
Knox pointed out that the Supreme Court
had already decided to be valid state
laws prohibiting the sale Of imported
liquors.
Replying to q question by Senator Full
ton Mr.. Tillman admitted there was some
doubt of the right Of Congress to regu-
late the receipt of liquor from outside
states by individuals for their own use
This he considered the only doubtful

The Twining Athletic Club team, In

in class of the post-season series yes
terday afternoon by defeating the Ma
tional Electrical Supply Company team
of the Commercial League by 3 to 0.
1t was fast and brilliant game
throughout, and many are of the opin-
ion that it was the best game Of the
series. A good crowd was present and
enthusiasm was plentiful.
For seven innings neither side scored,
and 1t looked as though the nine in
nings would be finished without either
side getting one across. Up until this
session it was a pitchers battle with
Gordon for Twining and Reichard for
National. Gordon continued his steady
twirling until the end. but Reichard
weakened in the eighth and ninth Five
hits in these two rounds netted tho
Twining boys three runs and the game.
Reichard was very erratic, allowing
seven men to walk. His record for
strikeouts was much better than Cor
don's, 1t being 13 to 8.
Twining carried off the fielding hon.
ors also. Two fast double plays were
pulled off by them that brought the

the final games Of the season with Chi
