CURRENCY BILL IS AGREED UPON Conferees et Together After All Night Session. REPORT IN BOTH HOUSES Completed Measure Said to Be Satis. factory to the Administration and President Will Sign as Soon as He Receives It. ‘Washington, Dec.-23.—The adminis- tration currency bill in its final form was reported to both .houses of con- gress to be written into law. The members of the conference committee, which labored until drawn threshing out the differences between the two houses, presented a perfected measure which followed closely the lines laid down by President Wilson in his demands for currency reform. In the house procedure called for the setting aside of the rules in order that the couference report might not be forced to lay over for a day to be printed. In the senate ‘the leaders endeavor- ed to smooth away the obstacles, chief of which was an incipient pro- test by the supporters of the provi- sion for an insurance of bank depos- its, which was stricken out of the bill in conference. The elimination of this provision is to be followed soon by the introduc- tion of a separate bill to establish such a guarantee. Chairman Owen of the senate bank- ing committee expects to introduce it early next month. Agree on Fundamentals. The conferees agreed on practically all of the fundamentals of the meas- ure as it passed the senate, including the provision that not less than eight por more than twelve regional banks should be created. The reserve requirements for banks entering the system, which had been slightly let down by the sen- ate, were strengthened in conference, an amendment allowing the use of the present bank notes and the pro- posed new federal reserve notes in bank reserves being stricken out. The last long drawn out struggle of the conference resulted from the administration determination that the comptroller of the currency should be given a place on the federal reserve oo ol ol e b e e e ok B o R dian Northern train from Duluth and Fort William was derailéd near here oo o e ool o ol o o el o o ol b KILLS BOY TO.

W., Dec. 23.—Incom- ing steamers bring details of the re. cent volcanic eruptions on the island ,0f Ambrym, in the New Hebrides group, in which 500 natives lost their lives. Witnesses of the disturbance de- scribe it as having been so sudden and violent that they expected to see the whole western side of the island disappear. ‘With a terrific roar, followed by a rapid succession of .artillerylike deto- nations, all the craters of the volcano entered into full capacity, spouting flames and lava and throwing out huge boulders. Great streams of lava rushed down the slopes, cutting off the villagers from escape. In one instance two torrents of the molten mass joined and make an is- land of one entire section of a vil- lage. Here fifty or sixty persons per- ished. The bay after the eruption was filled with dead fish and huge num- bers of dead turtles. The water in the river was hot.
