Senate Adopts Amendment to Forbid Use of Grain
 for Alcoholic Liquors.
TO BE EFFECTIVE:
 SEPTEMBER FIRST
Kirby Votes for Amendment, While Robinson. Opposes It-Press Censor. ship Provision Stricken From
 Espionage Measure.

Washington, May 12.-The first legislative step toward conservation of the nations food resources and a long advance to an absolutely dry United States was taken tonight by the senate in approving, 3S to 32, a1 amendment to the administration espionage bill, forbidding, during the. war, the use of cereals or grain in the manufacture of intoxicating liquor.
 By a majority of one vote, the sen ate also threw out of the bill the administrators press censorship section, and then voted overwhelm- ingly not to put in a modified sec- ton, as was done in the house. The opposing faction is expected to throw the censorship fight into conference, where the influence of the adminis- tration may be brought to bear more directly.
 The prohibition amendment was adopted under a rule limiting de- bate sharply, and only three speeches on each side were made. Previously the senate had voted down, AZ to %, a proposal to forbid the sale of in- toxicants during the war.
 Effective September l, the amend ment is calculated to confine sale and consumption to whiskey and other liquors in stock, and to wines, brandies and other drinks made of other materials. AnLther oppor.n- nifty to vote upon it will be offere when the senate takes the bill with the amendments from the committee of the whole, but opponents of the prohibitory provision are not confi- dent they will be able to overturn the action. Estimates were that at least $200,0O0,00 in internal reve- nues will be lost if the amendment stands.
 Senator Kirby voted for the amend ment forbidding the use of cereals and grain in the manufacture ot liquor and Senator Robinson voted against it.

COTTON SHIPS CANNOT
 BE SUNK BY O.BOATS

Washington, May 12.-A suggestion that submarines cannot sink ships loaded with cotton and that by using cotton bales in the bodies of merchant ships, America can feed the allies and defeat Germany was submitted to Secretary Daniels today by Represen- tative Hefljn of Alabama. Mir. lief lin said that during the civil war a federal gunboat torpedoed merchant ship loaded with cotton and that the boat did not sink until the crew of the torpedo boat boarded the mer- chant ship and blew it up with. a bomb.

Congressmen Reserve Them selves and Accept Senate
 Measure for Volunteers
COLONEL DECLARES
 HE IS GRATEFUL
Believed Bill Will Go t0 President in Few Days, But Question Remains ii Rough Rider Will Be Given Right
 to Lead Force tO France.

Washington, May 12-Thc way was cleared in congress today for Colonel Roosevelt, if given authority by the administration, to raise a division of volunteers for service in France.
 Reversing it's previous action. and overriding the conference committee. the house voted, 215 to IFS, to em- power the president to extend au- thority for recruiting such a divi- sion.
 This sent the bill back to confer ence, but the senate had already adopted such authorization and the conferees are expected to agree quickly now
 Whether the necessary authority will be given by the administration is problematical The army general staff whose advice President Wilson has followed closely, is strongly op- posed to such a plan, declaring vol :. unteer units of that character have no place in the great war army.
 The house voted authorization after stormy debate. Representative Anthony led the fight for the colonel, moving to recommit the bill to con- ference with instructions to accept the senate's Roosevelt amendment. Chairman Dent and many others fought against the proposal.
 When the action of the house was reported to the senate, ChairIhan Chamberlain withdrew the confer ence report and announced the con- ferees would meet Monday, when the amendment is expected to be ap- proved. The bill is expected to go to the president by the middle of the week.

DOC" ANDREWS RELEASED.
Stanley Temporarily in Charge Of
Cedar Rapids Team.

Doc" Andrews, manager Of the
Cedar Rapids club. has been released
fby the club directors, and Harry Shan
ley, Bunny first baseman, is in tenn
porary command of the club Because
Of the failure Of the team to win con-
sistently. 1t is said. Andrews became
dissatisfied with his job. and at a
meeting of the directors il was decided
to find a new manager to take his
place.
Andrews was we'll liked in Cedar
Rapids. but his ability to keep peace
among the members of the team was
not of the best. Stanley will direct
the club until President Hill can get
in communication with a man sought
for the management, and should the
executive fail to secure the services Of
the man desired 1t is quite probable
that Stanley will be left in charge for
the season.
President Hill has released Pitcher
Reese and Catcher Stumpf. Both mer
have played good ball, but the club has
two good catchers, and Reese is not in
good physical condition.
This Is the second time the Bunny
aggregation has been placed under new
management this year, Bill Collins
having been released as manager 8
