Washington. Jan. a7.--Rumors that
there was a hopeless deadlock on the

rest this afternoon when ii was an
nounced that the conferees of the sem
ate and house had reached a complete
agreement on ali the substantial fea-

in the senate either Wednesday or
Thursday of this week, and Represen-

Senator Simmons. in announcing
the action OF the conferees. said the
agreement applied to those sections
of the bill which have been in dispute
and upon which II had seemed for a
time the confcrees might be unable
to agree. These were the war and ex-
cess profits taxes, inheritance taxes
and insurance taxes. The rates agreed
upon were not given out, for the rea-
son, as explained BY Senator Simmons,
that a few minor matters connected
with them have yet to be adjusted.
The amendment adopted by the SEN
ate. on motion of Senator Trammel.
Of Florida. to grant every discharged
soldier and sailor ono months extra
pay at the time OF his discharge, has
not been decided upon. Neither has
the amendment by Senator Thomas to
levy a tax OF 100 per cent on all cam
paign contributions in excess OF $500.
These will be decided probably at to-
morrow's session. The house confer
ees are understood to be strongly OPP
posed to the Thomas amendment
Senator Simmons expressed great
qualification over the fact that an
agreement had been reached and that
1t will he possible TO enact a revenue
bin at this session OF congress. He
said:
I'VE have agreed upon all the sub
stantiai matters in the bill. and are
now going on to clear up and agree
to some Of the technical amendments,
The danger of deadlock Is passed.
There were several things that we
thought we never could agree upon.
but we have settled all these and are
ready to finish up the bill and bring
1t before the senate. 1t may take us
a couple OF days to do this. but am
confident that on Thursday at the lat
est we shall be able to report the bill"

enough. Within half an hour the
water and light whistles were blow

a lew minutes. A few people called
up at once and learned the great
news. But at $50 o'clock the hoard

time. I'VE were building railroad
track to carry ammunition as the in
fantry advanced in front of us. Shifts
were working all the time because the
Americans were pushing forward rap
idly. On the morning of November II
we were sent back across the Meuse
River to fix some track. Since the
seventh We had heard rumors that the
Armistice was about to be signed, but
we had learned not to believe in ru-
mors. So when Frenchman ran out
of a signal station near by at
o'clock that morning and told US that
the Armistice would be signed at II
o'clock We didn't believe it, for the
artillery behind us was still firing on
the German lines across the river.
But at exactly II o'clock the guns
stopped. A French rocket was sent
up and when it burst a French flag
) feet by 9 feet and made of a thin
tissue unfolded and fioated across the
river toward the German trenches
Many of the Americans rushed across
in an effort to get the flag for a SOU

meant work, but happy work. We
were all very happy that day.
c. A. Raum, manager of the Colum-

story of Armistice Day: "Armistice
Day? Why l was so darn busy all

most of the night. Sometimes the
