hostilitics, now the nation is at war.
The bill authorizes $4,000, 600 900

be loaned entente countries, and issu-
ance of treasury certificates for W.

creased taxation.
Discussion in the House was con-
fined chiefly to proposed amendments
Five of these were adopted. The most
important, drafted by Representative
Lcnroot of Wisconsin,, would conflne
the proposed $1,000, 10000 0 allied loan
TO countries at war against Germany
and permit loans only during the war
Others would prohibit the sale of the
United States bonds at less than par,
permit the purchase of foreign bonds

The Germans opposed the advance"
with their utmost power, bringing into
play thousands of cannon and ma

Nothing, however, could withstand
the gallantry and skill OF the French
whose ardor was strengthened by the
sight q. the desolation through which
they passed.
There was no hesitation among the
French soldiers when the order to adj
vance was given, but they did not
throw their lives away There was no
hurry; every movement was executed
as if on parade.
Advantage was taken of every incl
of cover, and thus the infantry were
able to approach up the sloping
ground until within striking distance
of the numerous entrances to the tun'
ncls: then they encirclcd the whole
plateau and left sufficient men around
to prevent the garrison's retreat or its
communication with the main body of
Germans. It's fate was then sealed.
Meanwhile the bulk OF the French
troops continued their advance both
