MORT the Drohibition DrODOSal

sentative Carlin of Virginia, will re-
port the prohibition proposal.
The reporting Of the suffrage pro-
posal was due to the belief of some
OF it's opponents that it can be beaten
on the floor, and they thought it best
to settle the issue by bringing it to
direct voc in he house. The pro
posed prohibition amendment, drawn
by Chairman Webb, follows:
Section1 That the sale, manufac-
ture fer sale, transportation for sale
and importation for sale of intoxicat-
ing liquors in the United States and
all territories subject to jurisdiction
thereof and expectation thereof, are
forever prohibited.
Section 3 That the congress and
the senate shall hare power independ-
emily or concurrently to enforce this
article by all needful legislation.

NEVILLE FOLLOWS CEN.
JOFFRE OVER IN FRANCE
Man Who Saved Vedun Has Been
PLACED In Supreme Command of the
French Armies.

Paris, Dec. 15.-The new cabinet
arcuses but moderate enthusiasm in
the press. The morning papers point
cut that seven ministers and two I'M
der-secretaries belong TO the preced-
ing administration; so that the change
is not so radical as might be expected
at the same time the appearance Of
M Claveille and N Loucheur as tech
meal experts is welcomed.
The NEST popular features of the
reorganization are the appointments
of General Herbert Lyautey as minis
ter Of war and General Neville as sue
cessor to Jogre as commander-in-chief
Of the western front
All Of the newspapers print photo
graphs of General Neville under the
iitle Of "oue Of the wars revelations"
Long Biographies are also published,
recalling the generals brilliant stroke
IN rectpturing Douaumont and Vaux
on the Verdun front. The papers also
say that the fact that General Neville
is half English-his mother having
belonged to a fell known Kentish
military family-makes his appoint
ment particularly acceptable across
the channel.
Jules Cambon continues in his post
as general secretary of the foreign
office.

BATTLE WITH STRIKERS
Feed Wire Cut and Stones Are
ShOWered on Cars.

Yonkers, the scene of rioting on Sun
day, was peaceful yesterday compared
to Mount Vernon, where strikers in
flicted more damage than at any time
during the twenty-five days OF the car
strike. A feed wire serving Pelham
and New Rochelle with power was cut
but was repaired by a crew under po-
lice guard. Several times the police
charged and dispersed mobs of strikers
with their night sticks. Several po-
licemen narrowly escaped injury when
stones were showered from iooIs upon
five cars at the First Street terminal
station.
At noon a hundred strikers stormed
a restaurant where strikebreakers were
eating and attempted to drag them out,
but were prevented by the reserves.
Only two cars were operated in fon-
kers, the last one being run into the
barns soon after noon by John Howard,
a starter, who said he was knocking
off because he had put in eight hours
Justice Arthur s. Tompkins, in the
Supreme Court, refused to issue per-

test the legality of the ordinance re-
