PHOENIX, Jan l5.-The first di- vision in the senate came today over the question Of reference on the pro posed bill introduced yesterday by Drachman and providing penalties for violation of the prohibition amend meut
 It was quite apparent that mem bers Of the senate with a dry tenden- cy feared the fate of their bin should it be referred to the committee on constitutional mandates and they urged that the bin be sent to the committee on constitutional amend ments and referendum. Their efforts were futile. however. and the bin is now in the hands Of committee which is unfriendly to many Of the drastic features of the measure.
 It is probably not fair to say that the following senators are dry but they. in this instance, voted for re- ferriug the proposed bin 10 dry committee: Claridge. Drachman MacMinn. Munds and Stapeley
 lt Is not probable that the bin will come before the senate for a final vote until much later in the session as there is a general desire to get rid of the Mothers Pension taugle and appropriations before this ques- ton is taken up.
 In the house the prohibition en- forcement had easy sailing and was referred without opposition to the iu. dietary committee
