LIQUOR FIGHT AGAIN
PROMISED IN HOUSE
Appropriations Committee May
Act, Following Rejection Of
BurIeson Compromise.

Following the refusal of the House to
accept the Burleson substitute for the
Jones-Works excise bill, carried as q
rider on the District of Columbia bud
get, the Appropriations Committee re-
sumed its wrestling today with the
problem of liquor legislation for the Dis
trict
The end of the session is but two days
away, and immediate action on the part
of the Appropriations Committee is
necessary-unless the District appro-
priation bill is to be allowed to die in
committee, where it was sent after its
return from the Senate. House leaders
are opposed to the chloroforming Of any
supply bill. The Appropriations Com
mittee is expected, therefore, to take
scme action today which will again
throw the liquor fight into the House.
The Burleson compromise for the
Jones-W Works bill was voted down in the
House III to 129. Mr.. Burleson moved
to suspend the rules, disagree to all the
Senate amendments to the District bill
and to agree to that legislation with an
amendment. This latter amendment

materially modified the terms Of the
excise bill.
The Appropriations Committee needed
a two-thirds vote TO suspend the rules;
II did not receive even a majority. Fol-
lowing the vote the District bill was
sent back to the Appropriations Com
mittee, where it had rested for a week.
Mr.. Burleson's motion was purposely
drawn to prevent motions to amend it
or to concur in the Jones-Works bill in
its present form.
After the defeat of his motion late
yesterday. Mr. Burleson made one more
attempt to get the District bill out Of
committee He asked unanimous con-
sent to bring the bill into the House,
disagree to all Senate amendments ex-
cept the liquor rider; and to debate and
amend that section in the House as in
Committee of the Whole.
Congressman Cary objected to the
unanimous consent request.
: As published in The Times yesterday,
The Burleson compromise for the Jones'
Works rider left existing excise laws
unamended except in the following i'm
portant respects:
No additional licenses shall be issued
until the number of saloons is reduced
to one to each 1,0Oo of population.
No saloon license for hotels having

EMPHASIZING the greater value of wo-

senting the National Association op-
posed to Woman Suffrage at the Be
lasco Theater yesterday pleaded for
more sanity in the present suffrage
movement and pointed out the dangers
of women giving too much attention
TO affairs apart from those of woman's
nature.

the National Association; Mrs John
Martin, of New York: Miss Lucy Price,
of Cleveland, and Miss Minnie Bronson.

Deny Uplift Argument.
The speakers confined themselves
principally to refuting the claims that
woman's advent into the political arena
armed with the ballot would procure the
uplift of the working woman and eradi-
cate evils of the bodies, polite and
social, or to pointing out the evils which
have accompanied woman's entry into
the business world.
Mrs. Martin said women We're too
docile, and incidentally scored men for
bringing about a condition where women
were being forced out Of their natural
condition.
'Customarily through the ages" Mrs
Martin said, man has specialized on
the getting Of a living-woman has spec

In time by the extension of machinery

WASHINGTON, March 6.---That the

TARY OF STATE.

Ton IN WORLDS PROGRESS.
ARBITER OF DISPUTES,
HIS IDEAL.

WASHINGTON, March s.-That the
William J. Bryan. who is now secre-
tary of state, Ia the same Bryan. who,
in 1900. stumped the country in his
campaign of "anti-imperialism," was
demonstrated this afternoon in the
first formal and official statement
given out by President Wilson's pre-
mier.
Mr. Bryans statement was as fol-
lows;
Il do not care to speak of our for
eign relations. or of our nation s
position in relation to any particular
our national position are expressed
in the closing words of the speech
which / delivered at indianapolis.
August s. 1900. The words to which
I refer show that | am in hearty ac-
cord with President Wilson in his
desire to promote international peace
and good will"
In this speech Mr.. Bryan says, in
closing:
What Bryan Said.
II can conceive of national des-
tiny surprising the glories of the
present and the pasta destiny
which meets the responsibilities of
today, and measures up to the possi-
bilities of the future. Behold a re-
public resting securely upon the
foundation stones quarried by revolu-
tionary patriots from the mountain
of eternal truth--a republic applying
in practice and proclaiming to the
world the self evident propositions
that all men are created equal. that
they are endowed by their creator
with inalienable rights; that govern
mcnts are instituted among men to
secure this right; that governments
derive their just powers from the con-
sent of the governed.
Behold republic whose flag is
loved while other fiaes are only fear
cd Behold republic gradually but
surely becoming the supreme moral
factor I'm the worlds progress, and
the accepted arbiter of the worlds
Disputes republic whose history,
like the path of the just, is as the
shining light that shineth more and
more unto the perfect day"

Mr. Bryan refused absolutely 10
so beyond this statement in any de-
tail. and would not discuss in any way

what conscience is for and what II
will do for the guilty Ii was not call

within those whose memories were
stirred and the drummer evangelist
wasn't trying to cause pleasant feel

He told jokes that brought laugh
ter Oh YES he told jokes aud stories,
but the points of the stories were
sometimes barbed and to some OF
those who heard him "mirth was only
art, laughter no joy, and music no
harmony" to use the words of the
speaker, But the unpleaSantnesS IS All

would say, you can't get converted in

You must put on sackcloth and ashes.
Joining Church Don't Pay Debts.
Mr. Williams has no use for q man
who robs and cheats his neighbor and
leaves his debts unpaid You can't
pay your debts by Joining the church,
he told them. Nor does he believe In
the theory that one only has to do
what he thinks is right. You can go
straight to hell doing what you simply
think is right. he declared Make
right all you can, bring the rest to God
and have the hlotter of the sky cover
