10y MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED w,psI

Washington, Aug. with the re
assembling of the senate after the
weekend recess there was much dis
cussion among senators as to the pos
sible effect of the prohibition issue on
the ratification fight The subject be-
came conspicuous through an inter-
view between representative OF the
liquor interests and Senator Hitch
cock, democrat, of Nebraska, leader
of the pro-treaty forces at which the
former is said to have urged that
peace be concluded so President Will
son could suspend wartime prohib-
ton.
Senator Hitchcock said he told his
caller that the only way state of
peace could be established was by rat
iftcation of the treaty, and remarked
that ratification was being opposed
by some senator's with whom the
vets had been influential
No Such Effort
Ever since President Wilson made
1t clear a month ago that he consid-
cred it impossible to declare demo-
bilization complete, and thus make
pronlDlllon suspension possible until
peace had been established treaty op-
ponents have charged that the liquor
interests were being lined up TO force
ratification. Senator Hitchcock said
today, however that there had been
no effort of that sort and none was
contemplated.
Mr.. Hitchcock said the call from the
liquor agent was entirely at the lat
ter's solicitation and that the treaty
had been discussed only after the
agent had asked him to use his influ-
ence with the president to have prohi-
btion suspended. This, the senatorI
said, he had refused to do.
Some Speeches Made.
Although the senate spent most of
its day discussing the high cost of
living, Senator Sterling, republican, of
South Dakota, made "A speech an
nouncing he could not vote for the
treaty without reservations, and Sem
ator Sherman, republican, of Illinois
criticized President Wilson for his at
titude regarding Fiume.
Arrangements were made to haveI
the senate adjourn from tomorrow to
Friday, so that the committee sessions
at which Secretary Lansing is to ap-
pear may not be interrupted.

The city council has under advise

DIR. r. C. Myers, who is attending

was out of danger He believed, he
said, that both showed slight improve

hospital, but felt it was too early to
forecast the termination of either
case. He was hopeful for both, he
said.
Mrs. Lawler's burns were less seri-
Gus than those suffered by her hus-
band. The shock of the explosion and
bomb, followed by her fainting at
tack when she realized that her little
son was cut off from her by flames
added to the seriousness of her con.
dition, which was only partly relieved
by later assurances that the boy was
unhurt. She also received fraC-
ture of left clavicle when her hus
band dropped her from a second story
These injuries and shocks
together created a condition that has

Washington, Aug 4.-ReCommen-
dations to President Wilson as to how
the government should proceed in its
effort to lower the cost of living are
expected to result from the second
meeting tomorrow of cabinet members
and other officials called into confer
enCe by Attorney General Palmer,
There was still no indication tonight

roads Hines. Assistant Secretary Of
the Treasury Leffingwell and Chair
man Colver Of the federal trade COM

sent suggestions to the conference

lively that they had reached no deci-
sion.

That President Wilson was taking a
deep interest in the situation, was in
dicated again late today when with
out announcement, he called at the
office Of the federal trade commits
sion and held 9 lengthy conference
with Chairman Colver and Commits
sioner Murdock. Neither of the two
commission members would discuss
the conference but admitted that it'll
dealt with phases of the living cost
problem.
Attorney General Palmer has sum
moned District Attorney Clyne OF Chi
cago to report on the progress of in
vestigations which have been underI
way there. Mr.. Clyne's visit was re-
garded as significant also because anl

New York, June 14.-After trying Marion Rollins, of Westbrook, re- gained the Womens Metropolitan Golf association title at the Arcola Country club yesterday. In the final round the wreath of victory was gained over Mrs. w. A. Gavin, the former holder, in gruelling match. requiring three extra holes.
 It was at Nassau in 1913 shat Miss Rollins won the metropolitan cham pionship, while Mrs. Gavin annexed the title two years ago over the Piping Rock course. There was quite a gal lery at Arcola yesterday, including H. B. Rollins and McKim Rollins, father and brother, respectively. of the winner
 From the momenI the pair left the first tee it was apparent to all that Miss Hollins was going to try as she had never tried before She had fine length from practically every tee, whereas her opponent, pressing g trife, frequently pulled to trouble
 Except on the tee. Miss Rollins never used a wooden club, depending upon a cleek for distance through the fairway at the long holes. On the other hand, the Englishwoman used a brasse or spoon as readily as iron ol, mashie. It wasn't her day, however, for in addition to poor direction with the driver, she frequently threw away chances on the greens.
