TAX BILL READY TO SIGN Senate Adopts Conference Report on Measure Without Roll Call. WASHINGTON. Oct. .1. Congress finished its work on the great war tax bill late Tuesday when the senate, following the example set Monday by the house, adopted the conference report without a roll call.

As soon as the bill is engrossed and signed Wednesday by Vice Pres't Marshall and Speaker Clark, it will be sent to Pres't Wilson who is expected to sign it Immediately.

The administration sailors' aiid soldiers' insurance bill, which has passed the house, will be brought up Wednesday In the senate. Its disposal in a few days Is anticipated. The only other measure the leaders expect to put through hefor? adjournment Is the eight billion dollar deficiency appropriation bill which conferees expect to agree on Wednesday and secure adoption of their report with perfunctory debate.

The conferees' draft Increased the total assessment by about $700,000.000 over the house and S12S.fl0O.O0O above the senate. S.o Million for Incomes. The bill now is estimated to raise about $ sr.0.000,000 from incomes, corporate and individual, and about one billion dollars from war excess profits. Other major levies are $30,000.000 on tobacco; about $275,000. C00 on liquors; $70.000.000 on first class mail. $40.000.000 on automobiles, $77.roo,000 on freight transportation. $60,000.000 on passenger transportation, $32.000,000 from stamp taxes and $60.000,000 from amusement admissions.
