FORMAL REPORT ON
 THE LICENSE BILL IS ]. ID BE MADE TODAY
Measure Considered in Dan- ger Because Only Four days Remain for Its
 Consideration
By l.. s, BETTY

Montgomery. September 6.--tSpe- cial )---There is much speculation in legislative circles tonight regarding the report of the conference committee which has been busy for the past four or five days adjusting differences be- tween the house and senate relative to the revenue and license bills.
 The committee completed its labors tonight and tomorrow will make re- port, the contents of which will not Ie known before that time.
 As already indicated in The Age Herald tho committee on conferences has agreed upon large number or amendments to the bill, 1t has been learned One of the most important of these is the amendment fixing the franchise tax against foreign corpor- ations on a basis of about B 1-3 cents Der $1Oe0 Another action of the com mittee, it Is understood, will be the recommendation that the license tax on automobiles be fixed on the same basis as that set by the house.
 Other recommendations will be made by the conference committee, though it has been impossible to ascertain what
  committees action is yelled in the greatest secrecy and, as a consequence, interest of wide magnitude is at tached to the committee's report.
 Montgomery, September e.-(Special) With only four legislative days remaining in which to complete consideration of the revenue bill and 10 present that instru- ment to the governor. in order that un- der the law 1t may lie on the executives desk five days before adjournment some apprehension is being felt by certain members of the legislature regarding the passage of that important measure at this session.
 This is due to the fact that consider able opposition to the revenue bill as IL will be reported by the conference com mittee has developed among certain mem bers and they may be able to hold the measure up until after the constitutional limit for presenting the bill to the gov

 Most Of the survivors, passengers and crew will leave Queenstown tomorrow by special train and bont for Liverpool.
 Captain Main and the officers who remained aboard the steam CT while efforts were being made to tow the liner to port were able to save some of their effects be- fore the ship plunged to the bot tom, 7S miles south of Fsstnet, not far from the scene of the at- tack. taking with her 3545 bags of mail. much of it originating In neutral countries.

London. September 6.--u2.47 D. m) The Allan line steamer Hesperian sank at 6;54 o'clock this morning within a few miles of Queenstown, after Cap tian Main and volunteer rescue crew of 25 had made brave fight to bring he crippled ship into port During the night the Hesperian settled gradually by te head. Daylight showed the decks awash and the liner about to take the final plunge.
 The captain and crew were taken off by rescue boats and landed later In Queenstown by the steamer Empress.
 The sinking of the IIesperian In deep water probably will prevent an inves- tlgation to determine whether the dis- deter resulted from submarines tor pedo from a mine. Passengers and crew assert positively that the vessel was struck by a torpedo. but thus far no statement has been obtained from anyone who saw a submarine or q tor pedo.
 The American embassy Is receiving reports from Wesley Frost, American consul at Queenstown, on the ques- ton whether warning was given to the liner. Persons so far seen by Mr. Frost state that no warning was given
 The list of identified survivors still leaves many unaccounted for. The AL Ian line is confident the final check Ing up VIII show no loss of life ex cept for the death of one or two per- sons. after reaching Queenstown.
 No Official Report Yet
 The American consul at Queenstown, Wesley Frost. telegraphed today to the American embassy that the admiralty authorities had not been informed of ficially that the Hesperian had been torpedoed without warning. but that they believed this was the case.
 None of the officers of the Hesperian, except the assistant pursers account. has yet arrived at Queenstown. This man and various passengers inter- viewed by Mir. Frost agreed on the tatcment that no warning was given.
 MT Frost's message also said that 45 unorganized Canadian troops were on board. most of them invalided. and that the Hesperian had 4.7-inch gun mounted astern
 The consul has been unable to learn of more than two Americans who were on the Hesperian both members of tho crew and both reported to have been saved.
 From stories told by survivors the de- tailed account of the disaster is gradual- ly being unfolded Most of the passen. gers say there Is no doubt the attack was made by German submarine and
