DRY OUTLOOK EOR HOTEL WETHESS 1 ' ; Council Committee Will In vestigate Sale of Liquor on Sunday: Leading Portland hotel, will b. called to account by th. liquor license committee unless they discontinue th. practice of ..rvjng intoxicating liquors on Sunday. Thl. decision wa. reached by the committee after hearing a re port from Captain Bruin as to the methods adopted by th. hotel, and to serve drinks. . , . Captain Bruin .tated he had received Information that the hotel, had adopt ed a check system whereby a patron could enter the dining room on Bun dify, date a check a day earlier and order liquors to be erved Bunday, the amount of liquors to b. served to be left blank until thf diner is ready to leave th. dining room. In the opinion of th. committeemen, this made both parties a criminal In the transaction, as both the diner and the hotel man wer. clearly trying to evade the law. Councilman Wills quoted th. state law to th. effect that no place where liquor Is sold .hall be open, on Sun day. He then inquired why a hotel man should not be required to refrain from selling liquors to any man other than a bona fide guest residing in th. house. The question was argued by all the members and the general opin ion was that th. hotel men should be called before the committee to explain their method of selling liquor on Bun-day.- If lt.xan be proved that the proprietor, have been entering Into contract, with their patron, to evade th. law, th. member, favor th. revo cation of their licenses. The task of securing evidence to thl. effect Is difficult, because of th. re luctance of any of th. diners to ad mit having been a party to th. crim inal proceedlnga Captain Bruin stated this morning that h. had such evidence against the Louvre, and that he had heard mat tne same memoas wer. being used -at other hotels.
