FATE OF SUFFRAGE
 T0 BE CAST TODAY
 CONGRESS HURR|ES
IRepubIican A. p. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2g.-Disposal of the woman suffrage resolution by the senate, probably tomorrow, is eX- pected to pave the way for three day recesses of congress while senators speak for the liberty loan and repre- sentatives look after their political fences back home.
 The suffrage resolution comes up in the senate again tomorrow with pros poets of definite action, either by a final vote and its defeat, or it's with drawal. Chairman Jones of the woman suffrage committee said tonight no plans have been made other than to call up the resolution again and decide after a final poll of forces, whether to press for vote or have it laid aside.
 Little Left to be Done
 With the suffrage question settled the senate has little left on it's imme- diate calendar to interfere with the proposed recesses. Members of the senate finance committee are agreed that there is little prospect for wal revenue bill being reported to the sen ate before the elections and there is little pressing legislature.
 The only important matter now be- fore the house is the emergency water power and s7,000, 100000 army deficien- cy appropriation bill. Passage of the former early this week is planned an6 the army measure is expected to bt ready rot later than next week.
 The brewers contribution to Arthur Brisbane for purchase of the Washing ton Times will be considered again by the senate judiciary sub- committed early this week, with a view to deter mining the scope of the investigation.

 The possession of Grand Pre- is one of the big stakes of this battle. When it falls, the Germans must make haste to get out of the Ar gonne region, which explains the desperate defence of it's approaches by the best forces the Germans have available.

CAMBRIA FALL EXPECTED

 LONDON. Sept. 29.-C7 P. M)- Last dispatches from the western front say that everything is going well and that the allies have made distinct pro- gress in all sectors under attack
 Between Dixmude and Ypres six thousand prisoners have been cap tured and the Germans have been pressed back from four to five miles.
 The fall of Cambrai is considered only matter of time, and the allies, having gained an important footing on the eastern side of the underground canal in the neighborhood of Belli- court, there is every likelihood that St. Quentin soon will share a similar fate.
 The French are making steady pro- gress in Champagne and the enemy apparently is retiring from the Che min des Danes.

The artillery activity has in creased along the entire line with the Americans easily outshooting the en- emy. East of the Mouse the German artillery fire has been quite heavy.
