A descendant Of the hrst reporter
the one that came back to tho Ark
with q twig from Mount Ararat-
arrived here yesterday from France,
after valiant service on the West
front, as a first class passenger on
the transport Ohioan. His name is
Cher Ami. Long after his feathered
frame has gone to dust his memory
will live in the pages Of American
history as the pigeon that brought
back to headquarters the plight of
Col. Whittlesey's "lost battalion" in
the Argonne.
This bird, which was an elusive
target for German machine guns is
an exceedingly thin creature; a homer
blue slate and white in color, hatch ed
in Pittsburgh and taken abroad by
Captain John L. Carney, a newspaper
man in command Of Company No. l.
Cher Ami vast one of nine birds
taken with the Lost Battalion and
came through to headquarters at a
time when his message was of su-
preme Importance. Throughout his
service on the West front Cher Ami
made twelve flights and was finally
discharged when q fragment of shell
carried away a part Of his right leg.
This mishap, which entitled the winged
messenger to wound stripe and
brought about recommendation for
the D. S. C. by Major General f. +.
Russell, occurred during a flight from

important message.
On the way the bird came within
the radius Of q burst Of shrapnel
Sergeant Cocker, in charge of the
army dovecote, saw Cher Ami come
in and noticed that he fell over when
he alighted. Cher Ami was weak from
loss Of blood, but he brought the mes

the stump of it's leg
Cher Ami's work was done. His fame
had spread about the army, and later,
when on a tour Of inspection, General
Pershing asked to see the creature
and stroked its head. The commander
IN chief gave orders that the little
pigeon from Pittsburgh be we'll cared
for and sent to Washington on its
arrival in America
Other warriors of the bird kingdom
were President Wilson, which lost an
eye in flight over the battefields.

a tank during the thickest of the
fighting at ST. Mihiel. The men In tho
tank observed a German ammunition
train and sent it's position in a mes
sage attached to the leg of little Poilu.
The bird arrived in quick time and
the artillery made a wreck Of the

TREATY COMPROMISE EFFORTS RENEWED AS SESSION OPENS
Both Sides Agreed That Treaty Must Not Come Up Until Way to Final Dis
 position Is Opened
By Associated Pres.

Washington, December 1.-NegotiatlOna for compromise ratification of the peace treaty were renewed today with the re- assembling of Congress, but the general feeling of senators on both sides was that it might be some weeks before the movement reached the state of formal action.
 Republican and democratic leaders found themselves in agreement that the legislative programme should not be longer delayed and that the treaty should not be brought again before the Senate formally until way to dispose of 1t finally had been opened by private discussion. There were indications that the resolution to declare state of peace might also be delayed until important legislation had been cleared away.
 The disposition to leave the treaty side tracked for the present was expected by senators generally to be reflected in the message which President Wilson will send to Congress tomorrow. None pro fessed to have any definite knowledge oi the Presidents intentions, however. and White House officials were silent tonight regarding the probable contents of the message.
 MUCH PRIVATE TALK
 In the short session today neither the u eaty nor the peace resolution was men, toned, but there was much private tall which developed some disposition to com promise on both sides.
 Democratic senators who approached republicans on the subject were told te put their proposals into concrete form They promised to do so within day ol two.
 To these discussions however. Senator Lodge, the republican leader, was not party. He has announced his opposition to any further compromise. and is under stood to have counseled his colleagues tt stand squarely behind the reservation accepted by the majority at the last ses sion.
 Senator Hitchcock, the democratic leader, predicted that the compromise ef forts would succeed and that within few weeks 1t would be possible to print in the treaty and ratffy it quickly He ex poets to see President Wilson soon ant | is expected to ascertain just what reser vations the President would accept rAtne' than see the treaty die.
