The bone of contention between the conferees is the basis of exemption in computing the war profits tax. Fpon their decision hangs hundreds of millions of the gains of the war profiteers. Just what, assets to include in capital and how muca of a percentage on capital to iHlow as a normal1 and reasonable profit is the problem which the conferees in their two weeks' wrangling have been unable to f-olve. The war revenue bill has been before congres now more than four months. It has been the cause of more controversy than any war measure, or lor any matter, any legislation proposed in recent years. The most powerful influence that big business has been able to bring to bear has been exerted in the contest over the bill. The outcome of the conference fight is being awaited with much interest by all members of congress, but particularly by those who fought t force heavier levies upon lug incomes and war profits.

Italian troops have completed the occupation of the Bainsizza plateau and it is now firmly in Italian hands, according to official dispatches from Rome today. The greatest work is at present being done by Italian aviators, who are scouting over the rear lines of the Austrian army and bombarding large bodies of Austrian troops. Tha present state of the .Italian front appears full of prom ises and surprises, the dispatches say. The Austrian?, thinking the solution of the wt.r is to be expedited only in the result of the fight on this frort, are desperately accumulating defenses to oppose a new Italian offensive. New Offensive. Hungarian papers, according to a Rerne dispatch received in Rome and transmitted here, say the allies will attempt a new general offensive before winter comes in order to insure themselves the most favorable positions for the definite blow they are preparing for next spring. These papers say Gen. Cadorna's armies are already in a position to start 1 new offensive along the Isonzo. ENGLISH STEAMER SUNK BY ENEMY SUBMARINE Il.tern.ttioa.il News Service: AN ATLANTIC PORT.
