WITH THE FRENCH ARMY IN
FRANCE, July 17.-Having met de-
feat in every effort to advance east Of
Rheims the Germans turned their at
tention toward pushing the advantage
they had gained west Of that city.
Strong columns which crossed the
Marine tried to ascend the river on
both banks toward Epernay. Their
powerful dasaes were met steadily by
the French, who contested every foot
of ground.
Battles proceeded simultaneously
on the right and left banks of the
river. The German line of advance
appears to be Venteuil on the north
ern bank and 0euilly on the southern.
The position is somewhat confused
and it is difficult to tell where the op-
posing columns are.
The Germans desire by this move
ment evidently to turn the strong
frontal position formed by the forest
and mountain Of Rheims from the
south, as an effort at a frontal attack
would probably lead to disaster, The
general impression is that the posi-
ton is favorable for the Allies, whose
tenacity and preparedness unques-
tionably surpassed the Germans, up
setting their plans for a rapid initial
success.

WASHINGTON. D. c. July IL
In preP4rinr The skeleton q the pro
posed &.ooeQ revenue hill. Repre-
sentative Css8s Kitchen. chairman d
the Ways and Means Comnittee, has
ignored sentine=t exsii=< = sa-rr o.
. dry nation nsxt January. Il became
known yesterday that this skeleton
draft Of the bill. which he submitted
10 the committee today. doubles the
present taxes On beer, wines and
whisky.
The committee has experienced the
greatest difficulty in finding sources
o. revenue ami therefore nothing now
taxable has been overlooked BY
Kitehin in the formation Of his tenta-
tive draft.
Many Of the luxury tables have been
embodied ia the sksleton--a rough
draft employed in the committee to
work with-Nnd frequently containing
schedules which are never accepted.
Kitchen. for the sake Of having some
thing to work with, has taken many Of
the Recommendation contained in the
luxury memorandum submitted last
week by the Treasury Department.
Other Changes Urged.
This memorandum contained this
suggestion:
Double the present taxes on alco-
hole beverages, viz: Distilled spirits,
new $500 per gallon, proposed S6.4O;
fermented, 50 per COLON, proposed Sc,
and wine, S cents a gallon to be l6
cents a gallon.
In the skeleton bill, the returns
from these sources, now about $780,
DOC, 900, r increased to $500, 900, 900.
This step is taken by the committee
despite the fact that there is pending
in the Senate, with a chance Of its
passage, an amendment to the food
stimulation bill, which puts the eour-
try absolutely on a dry basis by Janu-
airy next
It is understood that when Senator
Simmons and Representative Kitchin
in conference with President Wilson
last Friday about the legislation the
prohibition issue was under discus
sion al a taxable question. Simmons
presented this phase of the problem to
the President and told him that the
nation would lose at $45, 00O, 900 in
revenues If the country went dry mex.
January.
Would Cost U. S. 5000, 00O, 700.
He also told the President that
there would be about $4,000 900 gal
Ions of whisky in bond next January
and the Federal Government would
be in duty bound to pay for this whis-
ky, which would cost at least $780,
000,0
Simmons has frequently said that
there will be a loss to the country Of
more than 500, 000, 900 in the first six
months under a dry law.
Advocates Of prohibition were great
ly aroused when it was reported today
that the skeleton bill taxed alcoholic
beverages on the increased schedule
recommended by the Treasury De-
partment. They saw in the move what
they feared was a determination to
anticipate a veto Of the prohibition
amendment to the food stimulation
bill.
