girl who was truly a princess. The story, while true of the life of Russia
 as it exists today, seems more like a fairy tale. The disguised Princess, her blue-blooded lover, the revolt, the chase, the capture, happiness for the good neople and sadness for the bad ones all go to make up a story of cold, bleak Russia, warmed by the beauty and intensity of ravishing Norma Tal-
 madge. Eddie Polo in a brand new twd-reel drama, Billy West Comedy, Weekly News and others F reels in all make a splendid Sunday night program.

Washington, Dec. 17.-Rejection by house and senate military commit tees of war department proposals for a regular army of 576. 900 officers and men appeared practically certian to- night when Chairman .Wadsworth pre- dicted that the senate committee would fix the strength of the force at about 2S0,000. The house committee has already agreed tentatively on ap- proximately similar programme.
 There is no question:, said Senator Wadsworth, but that the senate com- mittee in its present frame of mind will not fix the number at more than 280, 900 and may possibly cut the number more than that"
 Senate sub- committee hearings on the bill were concluded today, while the house committee took up questions as to the future of the national guard. The senate committee hoped to have proposals in shape for the full com- mittee after the holiday.

 J. W. Dawson, an expert on coal production and costs, who was the only witness heard today by the sen ate committee, expressed the belief that the present wages paid miners were sufficient, and that "any in creases granted them must eventually come from the public's pocket"
 Coal operators are not making big profits this year" MT. Dawson said, land in my opinion they cannot en- tirely absorb the IA per cent. increa SC which the government has already al lowed"
 Senator Frelinghuysen asked the witness to suggest a method of avoid ing nationwide strikes such as that 1 just ended.
 "President Wilson and Attorney General Palmer took the best method when they started out to make the miners union obey the Lever law, ant call off the strike" Dawson replied. i The United Mine Workers unior collects annually $11 100000 in dues he told the committee. and ought to be held responsible for contracts.

W ashlngton, Dec. 417.-Expression that seemed to point toward a reopen Ing or the peace treaty fight within a feW weeks were voiced on the senate poor today when the subject bobbed up in the midst of consideration of the railroad bill.
 The symposium of views that went into the record during the brief debate included opinions from virtually all factions of the divided senate mem bership, but they all struck a note of conciliation. Differing widely in, their suggestions for solution, they stood together on the general proposition that politics ought to be forgotten and that the senate acting independent of executive opinion, ought to do some thing promptly to end suspense and establish a state of peace
 The discussion reflected the trend of negotiations which have. been in progress privatey among senators for an agreement that would get the ques- tion finally out of the way There gas increased activity in that direction during the day, and some of the lead CTS predicted some formal action early in the new year. k'a
 Senator Knox of Pennsylvania. a leader in the irreconcilable republican group of treaty opponents and a mem Der of the foreign relations committee brought the subject to the floor by an l other attempt to get before the senate his two resolutions to%establish a state of peace. The effort was blocked, but he obtained unanimous consent tc send the measures to the committee l where he expects to renew his request | for action.
 A plea made by Senator Knox fol some sort of a settlement was second ed by Senator Smith of Georgia, z reservation democrat, who declared the time had come to stop academic discussion of who held up the treat, and get together in a give-and -takt i effort for compromise. Action alst was urged by Senator Nelson of Min. nesota, one of the mild reservation re
 publicans, and by Senator Myers O l Montana a democrat who voted las session for some reservations and als, I for unreserved ratif1cations.
 In the compromise negotiations pro ceeding at private conferences amont
