The Salon on the Third Floor pears Probable in Both Sen- | « ate and Assembly. | | ALBANY, Jan, 21.—The hearing to-day before Joint Legislative Com- the Thompson-McNab resolution to ratify the Federal Pro- hibition amendment began as a quict affair, compared with last year’s bearing on the ame subject, when William J, Bryan championed the) cause of the ratificationists and Samuel Gompers led the antia. The principal wets, who requested the hearing, | mado by William H. Hirst, attorney for the New York State Brewers’ Association and for the Society of Restaurateurs of New) York, and that it abridged the rights of the residents of the State. The ratificationists, led by Wayne} B. Wheeler, counsel for the National Anti-Saloon League, contended that | tt would be worse than futile for) |New York to refuse co-operation, mittees on argument of the now that the amendment had been ratified. He dealt principally with the legal and constitutional phases of the subject. Developments this afternoon indi-| Committee is expected to report the | bill favorably to-morrow. In a statement made publio by Mr. | Wheeler the features of the amend- | | ment which have been declared by the wets to be “unconstitutional” are | discussed as follows: 1, The Imitation which required the States to ratify this amendment “within seven years.” ‘This ts the first tine such a limitation has been made with respect to a Constitutionul ainendment. 2, The provision that “one year af- ter ratification’ the use of liquors 7000 MURRAY HILL Thirty-fifth Street does not require an amendment to| Wife and Time Clock become Cretan and effective im- Offset His Confession, mediately.” “The eetion giving concurrent power to the State and Federal Gov- ernments to enforce prohibition,” said the lawyer, “gives the defenders of the liquor traffic undue concern, Under that power Congress wilt enact a Federal Prohibition Law to apply to the whole nation, The States will Iso enact State prohibition laws.” This arrangement, Mr. Wheeler be- Neves, will not bring conflict or disin- tegration. “It will simply result in team work between two units of Gov- ernment in the suppression of the beverage liquor traffic.” BALTIMORE, M4d., Jan. 21.—Car- the friends of liquor, properly re- mricted, hope will be read in every part of the world where Governments are interested in the problem of the manufacture and sale of wines and liquors.

Moreover, in the carrying out of the law, | see also an invasion of the home, which up to now all men have agreed is a sacred and holy place. These agents may enter our homes with the violence of burglars and the immunity of officers of the law. “To me it is very strange that after two thousand years men should pasa legislation which strikes at the very fundamentals of the Christian. re- ligion. Will not the Prohibition of the manufacture and sale of wine affect those who profess t Christian re- ligion? We nave 20,000 clergymen in the Unite mass. duty if they cannot obtain wine? ‘Wine is permitted for sacramental pur- ses. I cannot see how this will be if the manufacture, sale and importa- tion of wine is prohibited. “The law of Prohibition strikes the individual liberiy of worship. “We permit the restricted sale of Poisons, guns, &c., although the bad use of these is frequently fatal. “Why not permit the use of wines and liquor under proper regulation.” cannellini WEDDING 10 SISTER OF LUCHOW FIGURES IN PARTNERS SUIT Koehler, a chef and owner of the southern part of France, persuaded to come to Was August restaurant New York and marry the sister of August Luchow, restaurant owner on 14th Street, on the strength of prom- ise to recelve 20 per cent, of the net profits of the business, or did Koehle on the same basis? be divulged at the trial in the ca of Koehler against Luchow in the Supreme Court.

But My books Wiil teil the truth concerning the basis for THE EVENING WORLD, TUESDAY, JANUARY 21, 1919," * SCEPTICAL POLICE - RIDDELL SLAYER, ' O’Donnell’s Alibi of Money, | When a@ plausible explanation was brought forward to-day for the two new $10 bills found upon Patrick O'Donnell last Friday when O'Don- nell was picked up by the police of | Yonkers, the prosecuting officers of the Borough of Queens were almost \feudy to admit that they will have to | took further than O'Donnell for the slayer of Mary Elizabeth Riddell, Miss Riddell, killed within sight of the cottage home of her parents in Briggs Avenue, Glen Morris, Rioh- {mond Hill, 1. 1, shortly before 7 o'clock last Wednesday evening, had received two $10 bills that afternoon from her employer, the Globe In- |demnity Corporation, at No, 19 Lib- Jerty Street, New York, it was revealed that O'Donnell had recently received $20 from his em- ployer, the Waterman Fountain Pen Company, but it was said by the po- [lice that the money came to him on Saturday, Jan, 11, and that prior to his arrest six days later he had been |drinking. The inference was chat by ent William I. Ferris of the Water- man plant in Fletcher Street, Man- hattan, tells The Mvening World, “re- ceived $20 on Thursday, the day prior to his arrest, for services and over- time up to and including the Satur. day previous, Jan, 11.” This statement by Supt. Ferris sub- stantiates Mrs, O'Donnell’s story to The Evening World on Saturday last to the effect that she accompanied ber husband to the factory on ‘Thurs- day to draw his pay and there had st him, here are four mea down here,” Mr. Ferris said, “who are ready to corroborate Mrs, O'Donnell’s state- ment that she came to the plant with her husband at 6 last Wednesday jevening and that they remained untid 9 o'clock. “One of the men is Jacob Van Nos- trand, I cannot get the names of the others without another overhauling of our records, and since this case broke upon us it appears that I have given the names to “O'Donnell came to work he~w not is perhaps unnecessary to say that we did not know him to be an epileptic After his arrest we !earned that he suffered two attacks here. There was only a single witness to each, O'Don- nell, fearful of losing his job, pre- vailed upon these two men to say nothing. “Soon afterward he was transferred to night duty and on Wednesday night Mrs, O'Donnell came dcwn with him, helped him vigorously and saw the cleaning done at 9 o'clock, The time clock, to be exact, shows that O'Donnell arrived at 6.45 and left at 8.45 o'clock. “Van Nostrand and the three other men saw them here at work to- gether." The O'Donnell alibi, therefore, first put forward by Mrs. O'Donnell be- fore she had had a hint of his terri- ble confession at Yonkers, is sub- stantiated by Jacob Van Nostrand, three other employees of the Water- man Company and the Ume clock. With Supt. Ferris's story that O'Donnell did not receive his $20 un- til ‘Thursday afternoon, less than twenty-four hours before he walked into Yonkers, there was little left of O'Donnell in the Riddell case to-day except the confession of one whose who has seen him since his arrest de- is mentally deficient, was, indeed, only the wild. om of O'Donnell himse!t | | There 4 confess i e and the BR. R. T. transfer check picked up not far from where Miss Riddell's body was found. But the transfor check was not found until the follow. ing day, and O'Donnell is connected with it only because, he says, he got a De Kalb Avenue check on Wednes- day and subsequently lost it. To make sure the money O'Donnet! had was not that paid to Miss Rid- dell, the police have asked her em- Pioyers to get the serial numbers on all the money used in last week's pay-roll, all the notes having been inew. If the numbers on the O'Don- nell notes do not corespond to any of those on the pay-roli bills, it ap- parently will settle that phase of the case, O'Donnell collapsed last night * his cell in the Queens County Jail, and the jail physician was hurriedly called. The police refused to discuss & report the prisoner had tried to harm _ himself. If O'Donnell passes finally from the consideration of the authorities to- day the net result of his appearance in the Riddell story’will be to have given the murderer a jump of six days on the 100 detectives who are said to be at work on the mystery.
