In his hands to-nlglit a bill passed
to day by the Legislature authorizing
tho manufacture and sale lu this State
In cities of tho first and second
class of 2,75 per cent. beer. Tho wet
forces gathered strength for tho final
clash, and to tho astonishment of
all' completely ruled the drys. New
York takes Its stand with New Jersey
in asserting Its right to ninko Its own
definition of what constitutes an In
toxicating beverage. In terms of this
act beer Is not intoxicating.
That Gov. Smith will sign the beer
bill was made certain to-night when
he !ent an emergency message to
both houses of the Legislature for
au appropriation of 138,000 to con.
tlnue the State Excise Department,
which Is provided for In the beer

debate In the Assemlijy tho Chamber
was crowded with spectators and
shouts of approval followed tho vote,
which showed that-tho wets had de
veloped greater strength than they
had dared to hope for earlier In tho
day. In the corridors an Impromptu

"Down Where tho Wurtzburger

to their satisfaction by joining in the
chorus.

Glllett, the badly
wounded veteran ot tho Hindenburg
lino battles, who has been tho 6torm
centre of beer bill legislation almost
since the beginning of the session,
was warmly congratulated on the

Albany, April 2-t. Tho Legislature
of 1920. will conio to a close In tlm
onHv hours to-morrow morning, hav
ing turned out ot Its mill In tho last i
hours more laws than were passed in '
the preceding months.
All the traditions were observed In
the last hours. The session ended In
a riot of color nnd noise, with the
Republican organization in supreme
control in both houses and tho party
leaders clashing right and left In the
final rush through the mass of bills.
Both houses were In almost continu
ous session for forty uoum.
Socialism and prohibition stand out
as the two dominating themes of the
stltute the most sensational slnsle
achievement of the year. New York
State la. the tlrst - commonwealth U
take such an advanced stand In deal
ing with the wave of red nnd radical
doctrines following the war.
After battling for three months, tho
wets and drys came to tho llnal clash
at the eleventh hour, and the victory
of the antl-prohibitlon forces gave tho
legislation one of its biggest thrills.
Almost beaten, the wets Anally gath
ered courage at the last moment and
rushed through the beer bill with a
defiant shout. This almost surely
makes the liquor Issue a big feature
of the Stato campaign next autumn.

will have a far reaching consequence
In tho economic readjustment of Eu

While the deliberations of tho l'r

hours still are kept secret, indications
point to the adoption by them of the
following policy, many details of which
! will bo worked out later:
1.
Some common declaration by Kns
land, franco, Italy and Belgium
designed to reassure tho German peo
ple that the Allies are not seeking their
enslavement and aro not Inspired by
hate, but, on tho contrary, desiro to
see Germany rebuilt cconomloally. At
the same tlmo they insist on the exe
cution of the Treaty ot Versailles and
particularly on the carrying out of
the disarmament clauses of tho treaty.
2.
,n invitation, contained in the
same declaration, to the German
Government to present through their

economic clauses of thu treaty. The
German Chancellor will be Invited to

Seeing Flying Sparks.
The three upper floors of 42 lllver
Ide Drive, the four story residence of
M. Charles Schwcinert, manufacturer
of automobile valves, wero destroyed
last night by a Arc, which, Mr.
Schwcinert charges, was caused by
burning embers being carried by a
stiff northwest breeze from tho city
dump at tho foot of Seventy-ninth
street, where refuse was being Incin
erated. Mr. Schwcinert estimated the
damage to his home, which was re
cently renovated, at between $100,000
and $150,000.
Dr. C. F. C. Mcllg. a dentist, of 627
Fifth avenue, discovered the blaze as
ho left the home of Dr. M. Annette
l'elham, a patient whom he had been
attending, at 45 IMvcrslde Drive. The
dentist hurried over to the basement
doorway of tho Schwcinert homo and
rang the bell. Dinner was being served
and it took a servant some time to an
swer tho bell When n young woman
appeared Dr. Mellg told her tho house
was all re.
When tho fire apparatus arrived un
der command of Deputy Chief Thomas
Dougherty, the flames had eaten their
way down through tho fourth floor of
the white stone dwelling Crowds of
persons attracted by the flames and Uie
heavy pall ot smoke that huhg over tht
neighborhood, filled the streets. Reserves
had to bo called from the West Sixty
eighth street station. Before tho flic

scended 'id' the third and finally to tho
second floor.
n took the firemen more than an hour
to put out the. flames. What furnishings
I were not consumed were soaked by
water. Mr. 'Schwcinert said the Interior
decorations cost him $50,000 alone.
Dr. Mellg told the police he was hit
by a burning ember as he left the home
of Dr. Pclhim. Ho then looked toward
the eky, the dentist said, and saw a
mass of burning fragments. His eyes

fiptcltil to The Sun ad Jeiv York llKiut.ii,
Atlantic City, April 24. "Thu
Itiiiulllciin pni'ty will hnvo to save
the country."
That was tho keynote for tho lie
publican National Convention sound-
id here fo-nlght by Senator Henry
Cabot Lodge In a speech before more
than n00 prominent writers, publi
cists nnd other members of the iwrty
at a "Kepuullean week end" dinner.
The chief Issues before the coun
try nt the present time, us Senator
f Lodge placed them before the gath
erlng were, he snld, to he druwn from
the fact that the Itepuhllcuii party
had accomplished n solution of the
railroad problem nnd lind kept the
United .Shitcs out of the League of
Nations.
Tho fcpeech was accepted by thoso
win heard It as an acceptance of Presi
dent Wilson's challenge to send tho
whole question of the Lcaguo of Na
tions beforo tho American peoplo and
make tho approaching Presidential
campaign virtually a league refer
endum. Ho said he hoped tho league Issue
would be pent before tho people. "That
Is my desire, ' ho added. "I do hope it
will go before the American peoplo and
I have no doubt of what the Issue will
be."
I
Stands by the (iovi-rumcnt.
.Later the Senator said;
'"Tho road to progress Ilea in the
paths, of American Government. I
want to stand by tho Government at
Washington."
Senator Lodgd reviewed tho history
of the Leaguo of Nations fight In tho
Senate and then approacehd tho out
look for the campaign, tnking up con-
i dltions that face tho country as the
I beginning of a new administration
araws nenr. Ho said:
..j for one woultl never' have voted
.
whpre ,n thc woHd wlthmlt tho consent
of Congress. That docs not make for
the peace of tho world. Wo were not
WIIlln" to put the United States at any
7. . b, , , voto wn9 ,egs
nations The treaty
tnan VlJt ot olnt 1 nations, ine treaty
was defeated solely by tho President
because of tho reservations. Wo re-
, celved for our reservations one-half
the Democratic vote.
That was a com-
pllment. We have saved tho country.
As wo look at tho panorama of Europo
unfolding beforo us at this tlm there
Is a growing disinclination to seo thlo
(vinntrv Invnlvpfl In tho EuroDean
drama,'
"I was willing to seo some sort 01
' agreement that would promote mter-
, natlona'.lawi The league says nothing
about law. There is somo reference to
a court, but It Is passed by briefly, and
the whole document is an alliance
pureiy and simply. Which reminds us
painfully of the Holy Alliance.
"I sneak as a party man. I havo
onj,, u party man nll my life. The
of Republican party in tho coming elec
tion Is not to be compared with some
Ideas of perfection. Tho task is sim
ple. It may be compared with tho
Democratic party. In a crisis such as
wo aro facing tho Republican party is
moro dependable than the Democratic
party. Trno progress In this country
lies In tho path laid out by Washing
ton, followed by Lincoln nnd embodied
ln-tho Constitution."
Several Kinds of "ProKresi."
The Senator went on to say there art
various kinds of so-called progress. Ho
contemplated the-plight of Russia, and
bald tho Soviet system has been called
"progress." . .
-That Is progress of tho Russian Kinu
, ana mat is me son ui iirusicao mui
threatening America to-day. We must
.decide whether we aro to adopt that
path or to want m uie loumiciis ui
'American tradition. There are two
rvuhsi nnen tn us The Republican party
will stand for law and order. It will
aih..n ,n see It In my own Stato.'
Ho referred then to the, strike of tho
Boston police and paid ft compliment to
Gov Calvin Coolldge of Massachusetts
for the stand lie adopted In dealing with
th6 striking policemen.
"We must meet as a nation," Senator
Lodge continued, "that same principle In
the sami) way. No minority, no organ
ization can take over thc Government of
the I'nltcd States.
"We- hr.ve not meinly been making
promises. We have passed In Congress
un. pr the greater! ret onstrtirtlon meas
ures ever passed by any Government.
That- Is tho railroad bill. That net
