The conference report on tho trading with the enemy hill, adopted hy tho Bcnate yesterduy, was adopted . today by the uouso without a roll, call. It now goes to tho preuident for bit ulgnature. The elght-hllllon dollar deficiency appropriation bill was taken up by the senate today and amendments In volvlng many millions of dollars wore agreed to without debate or ob jection. At the request of tho War war department, tho Benato adoptef a substitute for tho house clause pro hibiting limiting uso of appropria tion for regulation and selection of men under tho draft to one million men. Tho substitute would prohibit expenditures for moro men than can bo clothed, armed and equipped for service. Tho war profits section of tho war tax bill today presented tho chlof bar rier to an agreement by conferees on tho measure. Nevertheless, hopo was expressed that a complete agree ment would bo effected before the war Is over. The controversy which has renewed efforts to substitute a flat rato for tho graduated scale put Into the bill by tho house. BLUE LEDGE SALE OFF BECAUSE OF ii AIR RAID OVER ENGLAND (Continued from rase On.) DPERATE 400 CARS motors could bo hcnril. The liomb- over this town continued about two hours at intervals, but so fur could be learned, only three bombs were dropped and nppur- nlly there was no great property damage. Heparin from Yorkshire indicate that the Zeppelins which appeared Ibis morning off the Lincolnshire and Yorkshire coasts dropped bombs and acrinl torpedoes. The amount of damage has not been us- crtiiiuril. The signal that all was lear was given lit about 5 o'clock this morning. laniagn Slight. Viewed by daylight this morning the damage resulting from the visit of the German raiders to Loudon ln-t Ight appeared to be surprisingly light. Tho number of bombs drop ped In tho London district was biho :1 nil tho practical remits were nl tost negligible. Tho chlof damage vlslblo this morning was broken glass. In one spot where a heavy bomb landod squarely in the middlo of the stre.it bole four feet deep was torn In the pavement. Tho spot was fenced oft ami men were at work repairing the paveniriit. Tho concussion of thiB bomb broke glass ovo' sevoral acrrs, Including windows in negrboring ho tels In which are many America; , Canadians and Australians. Only three persons were klllel by this explosion. All of them we'o slandlii'; in a doorway watching tho explosion of shrapnel overhead. In this district about half a dozen per sons were wounded, mostly by break ing glass. Wagon loads of glass were swept up from tho pnvements and enarrled away early In tho morning. Two or throe other bombs which fell In London caused even less dim age. The sale of the Mine Ledge mine to the Ladvsmith smelter syndicate, pending for several months, ha fallen thru, according to word from the purchasing syndicate, who de sired the mine on uceount of the flux im; character of the ore for use ii the smelterv. 1 J ail the sale material ized, it was! tlje intention to do ex tensive development work to nsccr tuin whether the ore body was suf ficient to justify a railroad. In the meantime, the county would he as sisted in road construction and ore hauled by truck. The reason of the failure to make tho deal is given as the "imposition of such onerous terms and condi tions" by the Towne estate, owners of the property, that negotiations were ubandoned for the purchase of tho property. The resumption of nipper mining in the Towne proper ties in Mexico is said to have made the owners indifferent as1 to whether the lllue I, edge was sold or not. Tho failure of the deal is u disap pointment to local mining interests, as ti sale meant the development of the mine upon a large scale and the eventual building of a. railroad; ' The prospective purchasers are high ela developers and not speciilutors, mid their advent would have resulted it the development of a successful mill ing district. MEANS HELD 10 t'ONCOKll, X. C, Sept. 2."!. Hus ton Means was hound over to the granil jury fiere late today' by' Mag istrate J'itts on. the charge of the murder of Mrs. .Maude A. King, af ter .Means consented to waive further cxniyiuation unf the Vhiiwlnj '.A' probable cause. It -with 'announced that no habeas corpus has been applied for. . Frank Osborne opened the argu ment i'or the defense, informing Mag istrate I'itt that tho defense would show that the state had not estab lished ft ease on which to bind Means over on a charge of murder. The theory of the exerts that Mrs. King could not hnve brought the pistol muzzle to bear on the spot where she was shot in the back of tile bend rests on tho supposition that when tho weapon wns discharged she held it in her right hand and fired it. the usual manner, Mr. Osborne said. , He contended that she could have held the weapon lind fired it, with her thumb. Mr. Osborne argued that Mrs. King did not deliberately shoot herself. "Xo one seeking to commit suicide,' lie said, "would shout themselves in the hack of the head, hut would fire at the front of the heud." On the same grounds he contended that if -Mens had determined' to kill the women he would have shot her in such a manner as would enable him to eluim she shot and killed herself purposely.
