LOCK- Woop AND OTHERS, ‘Tho Senate District committee to-day granted a hearing upon the two bills pending to regulate bar Tooms in the District. One bill was introduced by Mr. Hoar at the request of the temperance organ- izations of the city and the other was prepared by the District Commissioners, and was introduced by Mr. Ingalls. In behalf of the bill Introduced by Mr. Hoar a number of ladies and gentlemen, represent- ing the leading temperance organizations, appeared before the committee. MRS. LOCKWOOD'S REMARKS. Mrs. Lockwood spoke In favor of the House Dill and of the temperance committee. She said they Wanted the License increased to $1,000, and, instead of giving one-half of the tine to informers, the com- mittee suggested an amendment giving half to the Poor of the District. Mrs Lockwood sald that | Many grocers sell Nquors and do a great deal of harin by making It easy for minors and others to | get it. “The substance of the anguments in behalt Of the temperance organizations were In favor of the Most stringent provisions. They wanted a require- ment that all the residents of a square shall sign a. petition in order to procure a license, and to impose @ fine of $500 for the first offence against the Jaw and a Tine of $500 and forfelture of. license for the second offense, with 9 provision prohibiting the | SSsuance of a license to the party so offending for the space of one year. In addition to having all the residents on both sides of a square agree to a Petition, Mra. Lockwood wanted the assent of the government where a saloon Js to be located near government property. Mr. Kalistromn, grand worthy chief ‘Templar, fol- lowed Mrs. Lockwood. and much to the same pur- POS dis mtimated that the Commissioners had n derelict In enforcing the Mquor law. Mr. King, of the committee, followed in support of the Hoar bill as against that of the Commission- ers. Mrs. Chambers made an appeal for that provision of the — bill prohtbit- ing 2 barroom, within 500. fect of ir, Lockwood again urged the adoption of @ stringent law, especially in the provisions against selling liquor to minors and. habitual drunkards. She would like absolute prohibition, Dut Would not ask for it, not believing the people here are yet educated up to that standard. VIEWS OF COMMISSIONER WEST. Commissioner West made an argument in sup- port of the Commissioners’ bill. He did not believe that extreme high license was a good remedy. He saf that when the government imposed a tax of $2 per gallon on lyuor tt collected less revenue than at fifty cents. If the license was Increased to $1,000 or to $500 it would have the effect of increas- ing contraband and illictt trade. It would induce people to evade the law and sell filegally. He Suld the Commissioners do not want this tax as a Tevenue, but as the traffle goes on it must pay something. ‘The Commissioners believed #150 per year to be the best figure for license. ‘They want Tigid provisions to restrict retail selling under wholesale licenses, a palpable defect in the Hoar Gen. West satd that out of the 462 wholesale liquor establishments here there 1s reason to be- Heve that 200 do an illegitimate retail trafic, The Commissioners want a law to prevent tus; to prevent’ the practice that now exists of minors goimg to buy sugar for thelr parents and geting in the back room Of the grocery a dram of Iquor, Servants practice a species of blackmail by refusing to take employ- ers’ orders for groceries unless they are treated by the grocer. The Commissioners want all this broken Up, and their bill provides for it by making every pisice where liquor 1s sold to be drunk on the prem- es a barroom. He thought wholesale licenses ought to be increased from $25 to $100. He wanted a law that will definitely mark every place where Uppilng is done. Gen. West sald that he felt called upon t0 declare that the existing law Is really a ity—a rope of sand, and that if the liquor sellers were aware of its deficiencies they would nol pay a dollar license. The Commissioners, Knowing its defects, had striven to administer At the “best way possible, and to avoid con- flicts that would, by going {nto court, expose the worthlessness of ‘the law. The Commissioners had been criticised and censured, when it is the law hat 13 at fault. He had not dared to say before that this law is a practical nullity, but he felt called upon to do so now. Gen. West‘sald the Commis- sioners did not object to having their discretion re- stricted. He oyposed the proposition of the other side to give half the fines to the poor. It would be better to fix the amount for the poor definitely, and Not let it depend upon such conUngencies as fines. ra. Lockwood sald they were not tenacious about that provision. She was glad to hear Gen. West in favor of the Mquor sellers. Gen. West.—“In favor of whom, magam?” Mrs. Lockwood."—“I understood you to be in favor of the liquor dealers.” Gen. West protested that she had entirely misun- derstood and misapprehended him: that he was arguing in favor of good laws and good govern- ment, and not in favor of the liquor dealers. Chairman Ingalls—“The committee did not un- derstand you that way.” Mrs. Lockwood said she, as a property owner, had not been asked to sign petitions for saloon licenses where the proposed location was In the very square in which her property was located. DR. NORTON, OF THE TEMPERANCE COMMITTER, spoke in favor of requiring the signatures to pett- tions to be renewed every year. He said that 23 years ago he answered a call that this capital was in danger. He came here from Maine, confronted a school. AFFAIRS AT THE CAPITOL. ‘The O'Donnell Resolution. AN RFFORT TO BE MADE TO HAVE THE STATEMENTS CONCERNING MR HEWITT FURTHER INVESTI- GaTED. When the Brumm resolution ts reported back to the House by the foreign affairs committee, in com- Pilance with yesterday's omer, a resolution will be Offered referring it back to the committee with the instruction to send for persons and papers and tn- Vestigate the allegations concerning Mr. Hewitt’s interview with the British mintster with relation to ‘the O'Donnell resolution. The matter will then be thoroughiy investigated and the truth gotten at If Possibie. “The comiuittee tn reporting. the original on back to the House do not reflect upon the Merits of the case, but simply say that they could learn nothing under the provistons of that paper. The British minister refused to give them any 1D- formation, and there were no papers at the State department that would throw any light on the Subject.
