CONGRESS REJECTS
PROHIBITION PLANS
THE Ho5soN RESOLUTION TO
SUBMIT A CONSTITUTIONAL
AMENDMENT DEFEATED.
Party Lines Wiped Out in the Struggle
In the House, the Advocates OF
Nationwide Prohibition Going
Down to Defeat

Washington.-The Hobson resolution
to submit constitutional amendment
for national prohibition to the state
legislature was defeated in the house
Tuesday night, 1877 members voting
for and 189 against it. An affirma-
tive vote of two-thirds was required tc
adopt the resolution.
Party lines were wiped out in the
struggle Democratic Leader Under,
wood and Republican Leader Mann
fought shoulder to shoulder at the
head of the forces opposing the reso
luton. And When the vote came, OF
the 1877 standing for the resolution,
ia were Democrats, 81 were Republi.
cans and IL were Progressives and
were independent Republicans.
Prohibition leauers declared that
the majority for the resolution had
fulfilled their expectations as they had
not hoped for two-thirds vote at this
time. Whether a similar resolution
pending in the senate submitted by
Senator Shepard of Texas would reach
a vote in the senate at this session
was not certain Tuesday night Ad.
ministration leaders are inclined to
believe, however, that it will not, in
view of the action of the house.
Notwithstanding repeated public
assertions that many members of the
house would try to dodge record
vote on the issue, the roll call dis
closed a heavy attendance, larger
than the average throughout the ses
sion. On the final vote 1856 votes
were recorded. To have carried the
resolution would have required 25S af.
firmative votes. 1t thus failed by 81
votes

Trenches Being Constructed All Over
ENGLAND.

New York-All about London
trenches are being constructed to re-
pei any possible invasion. This work
has been in progress for two months,
according to travellers who arrived
here Wednesday. At first it was said
this was merely practice for recruits.
This pretense has now been aban-
doned. Any traveller by road out OF
London, and especially by north and
northeast, can see lines of trenches
that would do credit to veteran troops.
