Additional Conferences Held Yesterday by Leaders and Hearing by Committee on Agriculture

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2S.-Plans of senate leaders for compromise legisla- ton on national war time prohibition, proposed to become effective July 1, 1919. instead of January 1, next, moved forward today with the holding of additional conferences and the hold ing of hearings by the agricultural committee.
 The program for the bills considera- tion was upset by the death of Sen ator James. Tomorrow it is proposed to bring the bill before the senate for continuous consideration until dis posaI. Some senate leaders believe 1t may be passed before adjournment, under the compromise plan, but oth- CTS believe more time will be required. Possibility of the compromise nego- tiations being upset also made the biI's future uncertain.

WASHINGTON, Aug 2S.-Enact- ment by congress and transmission to President Wilson tomorrow of the man power bill. broadening the army draft age limits to include men of IS to 45 years of age. appeared assured late today when the senate and house conferees unexpectedly reached a complete agreement on all important disputes, striking out the senate's work or fight" amendment
 Adoption of the conferees' agree ment by both senate and house inn mediately after they recOnvene at noon tomorrow was regarded by the cOnferees as d certainty. Only dispos- al of two minor amendments and drafting of the formal agreement re- mained to be done tomorrow before the assembling of the two houses.
 Elimination of the work or fight amendment, on which the senate con ferees yielded paved the way for the virtual agreement on the measure The work or fight proposal was re garded as the only dispute likely to cause delay and the senate's managers consented to it's deletion from the bill largely to expedite enactment. Some complaint is expected from the senate majority favoring the work or fight clause which organized labor repre-. sentatives have vigorously opposed and the house voted down, but adop' tion tomorrow of the complete con- florence report by both senate and house was regarded as a foregone con clusion.
 The amendments left for the final conference. planned early tomorrow, were those of Senators Penrose of Pennsylvania and France of Maryland, respectively, providing that regis trants need not claim exemption or deferred classification and for badges or insigna for men deferred for indus

EXPECT STIFFENING
MORE THAN 13oooo PRISONERS AND 1900 HEAVY GUNS TAKEN FROM ENEMY SINCE FIRST OF
 LAST MONTH; REPRESENTS LOSS OF 12 GERMAN DIVISIONS
Gcontinued on Page Twol

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2S.-DevelOp- ments on the western battle front dur ing the next fortyeight hours should determine the fate Of the much-vaunt- ed "Hindenberg line" in the opinion of some military officials here. With the strength of the line already mate rially impaired observers believed that scheme of defense pOpularly held in Germany to be the bulwark of the western front is in fair way to be- come untenable.
 The impression prevailing in mili- tary circles here is that General FOch's tactics have forced the enemy to make every effort to stay the ad- vance, without the option of with drawing 'unnoticed" For more than six weeks the main German armies have been under ceaseless pressure.
 This withdrawal while not precipi- tate, has been swift enough to bring their main concentrations within al- lied artillery fire with a consequent effect on the morale of the enemy's men and on his every attempt to or ganize an effective resistance. The longer the tactics of the past week are kept up, army officers. say. the more difficult will be the attempts Of the German staff to stop them.
 PiniOn here is that German resist ance will stiffen within the next few hours.
 Prisoners taken by the allies since July 1, General March said today. total more than 112, 1000. while 1900 guns of heavy caliber-field pieces and larger were captured. It was understood that General March's figures included only prisoners passing through de- tention camps up to the beginning of the present week.

WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN FRANCE, Aug. 2S. (By the Associated Press. Jon both sides of the Scarpe river hard fighting continued today, the British launching fresh attacks and wrestling from the desperately resisting enemy additional valuable stretches of ground. many more ad- vantagesous positions and numerous towns, including Croisilles.
 In the center of the wide battle field on which three British armies-the first, third and fourth-are operating, there seems to be a slight pause.
 South of the Somme, Fay and Ablan- court were taken by the British with out much difficulty. for the Germans, being hard pressed south of these points by the French were ready to go with slight persuasion.
 Since early this morning storm aft CT storm has been sweeping across this section of France. Despite the unfavorable weather, the forces in the north have driven deep into the hur riedly arranged enemy defenses smothering hordes of the Huns.
 These Huns had been thrown into l the fighting in this section in an eff fort to keep the British from pene trating the famous Queant-Dorcourt switch line, which formed the north ern continuation of the old Hinden lburg line after the British last year l beat the Germans back from Arras This line has been approached in sev | hnnra y-oanhnd fV i at least one place, in the neighborhood of the Sensee river.
 The success of this drive here and the breaking through of the old Ger man defense system may have far i reaching effects.
 i South of the Scarpe the Canadians captured all of Relieves after brisk street fighting. Their advanced pa trols entered Remy and Haucourt The British are well east of Fontaine and the main body of the Germans has retired from Hendecourt.
 Heavy fighting is in progress from point south of Lenz southward across the Scarpe river to the Arras Cambrai road. The British are beat ' ing down the German resistance with steady blows.
 At least two new German divisions have just been identified in this fight ing. But while they are opposing tho allies, and in most cases are battling hard. there have been cases where th' enemy troops have shown themselves to be excessively nervous. whicl is as it should be, considering thu pounding they have had and are stil getting from the British cannon anC the defeats they have suffered at thu

HINpENsURe BULWARK PASSED BY OUR FORCES WHICH HAVE LARGE BODIES OF ENEMY TRAPPED WITH NO ESCAPE WITHOUT LOSSES MEN. GUN

UNDATED WAR LEAD, BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS. The
 Germans facing the allied forces from Arras to Soissons every
 where are in dire peril.
 On almost every sector of the
 battle front the enemy line con tinues to crumble before the allied attack, notwithstanding the yio- lence, born of desperation, of the counter offensive tactics.
 Near -Arras the old Hindenburg line now is well outflanked; from
 the Scarpe to the Somme the hos tile line gradually is falling back while from the south of the Som me to Soissons the enemy front
 has literally been smashed and
 the German posts apparently are
 caught in two distinct traps, es-
 cane from which without heavy
 losses in men made prisoner and
 guns and material captured seems
 almost impossible of achievement.
 Scores of additional towns hay been captured by the British, Frenc and American troops, the American having entered the fray with tn FSench northwest of SOissons, whil all of the old German salients in tn allied lines now have been flattene put and the allies themselves hay dug deeply into the enemy's terrain
 The first trap in which the enem find himself is the triangle formed b the sharp curve of the Somme rive with Peronne its apex and with Curl on the Somme and Fresnes respe lively, its northern and souther bases. This triangle is little mol than three miles deep and six mile wide, and in it the Germans are figh ing with their backs toward the SoI me on both the north and the east.
 Desperate resistance is being offe ed by the enemy in order that h men may have time to reach a have
