COMPROMISE ON
WATERWAY BILL
POSSIBLE TODAY
During Filibuster Simmons An
nounces Senate Will Sit
Till Bill Is Passed.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 21.--The fili-
was resumed today in the Senate
amid the possibilities of compromise,
After a conference with President
Wilson, Chairman-.S Simmons, of the
finance committee, announced that
the Senate would stay In session con-
tinuously until the bill was passed.
He expected vote tomorrow night or
Wednesday.
Senator Simmons said informal con-
ferences with Senator Burton, lead
ing opponent of the bill, developed
that both sides might yield some
points Mr.. Burton told the Senate
he would be satisfied with a lump
appropriation of not more than $780,
100000, to be spent by the war de.
partment.
Senator Simmons said that there
was no intention of cutting the bill. SO
as to include only projects already
under way, and that the President
had not insisted on such a plan.
Senator Simmons called at the
White House primarily to discuss the
Alaska coal leasing bill, which Presi-
dent Wilson is eager to have passed.
The Senator told the President the
bill could be taken up after the rivers
and harbOrS Dill.
When Senator Burton learned of the
plan for a continuous session he de-
elared he was prepared.

NEW YORK, Sept. 21.--The furious
fighting at Rheims indicates an i'm
portant development of the allies ef-
forts to cut off General Won kluck's
right wing from the main German
army. Won Klucks line of communi-
cation with the centre is maintained
by the railway that runs from Laon,
thirty miles southeast, to Rheims.
This railway is dominated by three
permanent fortifications on the hill
of Brimont, to the north of Rheims.
If Brimont is taken by the French
Won Kluck's direct railway connec-
tion with the central German army
will vanish. Reinforcements for him
will have to make circuitous jour
ney by rail of three times the distance
now separating the headquarters of
the German right and centre.
The movement of the allies along
the Disc river comprises the western
end of the enveloping movement
which Won Kluck is continuing to

ported, If consistent, must, however,
soon begin to tell. AS yet these west
ern gains have not coincided with the
French at Rheims. IL Brimont falls
into the possession of the French,
and at the same time the allies reach
their objective along the Oise, Won
Kluck's position will be in the highest
degree precarious.
The evacuation of Jarawslau by the
Russians indicates that the fear OF
being surrounded in fortified posi-
tions, which is so apparent in France,
is exerting an influence on Austrian
strategy. The effect of Russia's sue
cess in securing this position on the
San river is to give her access to the
main railway line leading to Cracow.
The victory is important wholly for
this reason. 1t can be minimized by
the destruction OF the railway by the
Austrlans as they retreat toward
Cracow.

afternoon the complaint made last
July against the Standard Oil Com
pany of New Jersey. under which
the company was charged with dis.
crimination and endeavoring to es-
tablish a monopoly in gasoline by
underselling its competitors and by
making different selling prices at
different stations.
The complaint was brought by the
Crew Levick Company, a competitor.
under the so-called seven sisters
antitrust laws, which were placed on
the New Jersey statute books just
before Woodrow Wilson relinquished
his office as Governor to become
President.
The fight between the Standard
oil Company and competitors in this
city resulted i'm the price of gasoline
being cut to nine cents within a few
months.
It was thought that one of the re-
suits of the suit would be an imme-
date boost in the price Of gasoline.
This was denied at the local office OF
the STANDARD Oil Company. G. II.
