PROHIBITION UP TODAY.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 3G.-Opposi- tion to various appropriations attack ed as wasteful and unnecessary, to- gether with protracted debate on the conference report to the manpower bill. resulted in the failure of the sen ate to mass the agricultural appropria- tion bill, with its amendment provid- ing for prohibition aftr June 30, 1919. Prohibition leaders plan for vote to- morrow.
 Discussion of minor appropriations occupied most of the time. senators contending much Of the money could be devoted to better purposes. An amendment authorizing the secretary of agriculture to set aside $2.5O0,OOO for the purchase O. seed wheat to be sold to farmers was adopted.
 The bill with the prohibition amend ment. according to the plans of senate leaders. is to be passed finally by a viva voce vote, without placing sen ators on record as to the prohibition proposition. Upon passage by the sen ate. the measure will go to conference.

STRIKE
 SPREADS QUITE
 RAPIDLY, REPORT
Fully Half of London Boobies Out, According to Their Claim, While Small Towns May Be Affected
CRy Review Leased wIrel

LONDON, Aug. 3O-The police or the London Metropolitan district, em- braclng an area of 700 square miles and a population of approximately S. OOO,OOO, went on strike today for more pay. The "city" comprised within an area of little more than one square mile. and which has its own police force, is not yet affected.
 The force numbers about 22,000. Union leaders say 10000 of these were "out" at noon and the greater propor tiOn of the remainder had shown them selves in sympathy with the strike.
 A union leader said the pay of Lon don policemen is 3S shillings weekly, plus F sshillings war bonus and the possible addition of shillings weekly after twenty-one years service. Ser geants receive 10 shillings more week ly than patrolmen.
 "The London police are about the poorest paid in the world,' said this union leader. For a year we tried all the routine methods. It was only when these failed we decided to strike"
 There was a similar disturbance on smaller scale in 1872 and again in 1890, although both attempts were suppressed in a day or two.
 A high Scotland Yard official is quoted by the Pail Mall Gazette as saying: "We take a very serious view of the mems action. They are not striking. They are multiplying in the face of the enemy The police are disciplined force which has been ex- empted from the military service to protect property It is a Guasi-military force and in mutinying the men are breaking one of our lines of defense and compelling us to gather together scratch force"
 At headquarters of the police union tonight it was said the strike was ex- tending and that it virtually affected the entire Metropolitan police. It was added there was every probability that the strike would be extended to pro vincial towns.

DEBATE AGAIN HOLDS UP BILL ON NARROWER
Only Slight Formalities Re main, However, and It Is Expected to Be in Hands of President Today
Rv Review 1ensea Wire,

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-Con- gress failed again today to com plete the manpower bill. Only the formality of the signing of the measure by the presiding officers of the senate and house remains and 1t was predicted tonight the measure would be in President Wilson's hand soon after the con vening hour. Its immediate ap- proval by the executive commit tee is expected.
 The conference report of the bill approved yesterday by the house, was adopted late today by the senate by a yea and nay vote with but feeble opposition of few senators present. Senate debate on the work or fight amendments excision was so protracted that the house adjourned before the bill could be returned there for the signature of the speaker. The rules require that signatures of the presiding officers be attached to the engrossed measure while the houses are in session.
 Senate debate today centered on the elimination of the work or fight amendment by the con ferees. Senators Thomas of Colo rado. author of the amendment, and McCumber of North Dakota, protested. Chairman Chamberlain of the senate conference commit tee defended the action of the com mittee in yielding to house oppo- sition. While not objecting to give boys under 21 years of age the same homestead rights as those above that age. Senator Jones of New Mexico, former as sistant secretary of the interior, protested against the provision, saving it would not have the effect desired by its suppor CTS, and would result in much public lapd being kept tied up.
 Senators Walsh and Nelson urged that the New Mexico sen ator not press his opposition at this time, declaring that passage of the supplementary resolution any time within the next six months would meet the situation, while prompt disposal of the pend ing bill was imperative.

GAIN VITAL TERRAIN
FRENCH VICTORY YESTERDAY MOST SIGNIFICANT OF UTTER DEMoRALIZATIoN DF HUNS; oUTFLANK POSITIONS IN OLD HINDENBURG LINE

UNDATED WAR LEAR, BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS. There has been no abatement in the strength. of the offensive the British, French and American troops are throwing against the German armies from Arras to the region of SOissons. And as yet there is no indication that it is the purpose of the seemingly demoral- ized enemy to turn about and face their aggressors or to offer more resistance for the present than through the activities of strong rear guards.
 Not alone have the allied troops all over the battle front from Ar ras to Soissons gained further i'm portant terrain, but to the north the British have advanced their line in the Lys sector, apparently without much effort.
 Of greater significance than any of the other victories achieved in Fridays fighting is the gain of the French, with which Americans are being added in this general sector north of Soissons. The latest French official records the capture of Chavigny, three miles northwest, and Cuffies, a mile and a half north of Soissons, and the entry into the outskirts of Crouy, to the northeast.
 These victories, gained only aft CT the hardest kind of fighting make more secure the allied line running northward and out-flank- ing the Aisne and the Chemin Des Danes positions. Also battering this general situation has been the

DAWSON, Y. T., Aug. 30.- En route to Esquimalt, B. C., and thence to New York via Ottawa, Vilhjalmur Stefansson, arctic ex- plorer, outfitted himself with store clothes" here today, his first opportunity in five years. He arrived yesterday wearing mocassins and other rough gar ments. Before going to Ottawa, he will visit his mother at Wynward, near Saskatoon.
 Stefansson declared he is anXi- ous to help the allied cause and be- lieves he can do this best by giy- ing lectures in the United States for the Red Cross. He expects it will be many months before he re- gains his former physical endur- ance and is able to resume arctic explorations. After his illness from pneumonia and pleurisy at Herschel last January, he travelled four weeks with dogs, over snow covered mountains, to Porcupine river and thence to Ft. Yukon, where he took treatment for 150 days.
 The explorer will leave here Sunday or Monday.
