large number wounded and the Italian
loss at 100 dead and wounded.
The attack was made before day

The attacking force numbered apparently
more than 5000.
The Arabian and Turkish cavalry threw
themselves against the entire Italian line,
which was formed in a semicircle behind
the city. the ends extending to the sea-
shore.
A sanguinary encounter at close quar-

The Turks were reinforced by two large
bodies Of infantry and threw their whole
strength against the Italian center, which
they succeeded in smashing, but the
Italians rallied and drove back the
enemy, inflicting heavy losses.
The Turkish horsemen and foot sol
diers displayed remarkable bravery. In
one instance a company OF Turks and
Arabs which had fallen back returned to
the field in the face OF almost certain
death to recover the body of a fallen
officer. In the dash one-half Of the mum,

Wheat Market Drops
in Sympathy With
Stocks and Bonds

CHICAGO, oct 21.-Dollsr wheat. the
farmers ideal, suffered fracture today
on change. For the first time in quite a
while the December option went down
into the nineties. selling off cent and
a half a bushel to 99A cents. The mar
ket was chiefly affected by the weakness
in the stock markets resulting from the
government attack on the United states
Steel corporation.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. oct. T.-On the
local market wheat today at the opening
dropped l cent below yesterdays prices
as a result OF the stock market liqulda-
ton caused by the governments dissolu-
tion suit a inst the United States Steel
corporation. There was some liquidating
among the smaller traders. The opening
of December wheat l cent down was
soon followed toward noon by a drop of
another cent There was considerable
selling at 9S5sH9SNc, attended by increased
excitement in the pit.
Heavy stop orders were executed when
December wheat got below the dollar
level. many longs refusing to let profit
run into losses. support from bull leaders
was necessary to prevent the market
whirling into decentralization.
Later the selling took fresh Inn
petus, with the result that the December
option slid under 99c not hesitatng an
instant Buyers were few and scattered.
A large quantity Of wheat owned in the
east came on the market and was not
readily digested. Local Spectators took
advantage of the situation and hammered
the price, pulling down the December
option to 9SA cents, a loss Of 29s cents to
2lk cents compared with last night. The
close was weak at the lowest point of the

nerves suffered accordingly. She
would have liked to demand a fur
Their explanation, but there was an
undefinable something about the
slender, youthful.looking sleuth from
Bullivants which Warned her that he
must be allowed to follow his chosen
tactics without inquisitive interfer-
ence. So the much worried hostess
repressed her curiosity, and awaited
the march of events with patient
resignation.
Among his many other valuable
mental qualities, Mr.. Percival Nagel
might be said to possess in an I'm.
common degree the faculty which has
been termed "the leaping mind" for
want of better name. Over and
over again had the value of this
unique trait been proved at the very
outset of many cases in which he had
been engaged. In this instance, how
ever he found himself confronted
with case where some scientific
knowledge was badly needed as we'll
as intuition. The problem of Mrs.
Bingham's SOLITAIRE required the exer-
else of both these qualities-and the
Bullivant expert was fortunately not
lacking in either.
A short conversation During the
following Sunday with Miss Marcia
Inness. niece ofMrs. Bingham, and
few words exchanged with Sir Nigel
Deering, carried sufficient weight
with Nagel to eliminate both these
suspects from the purely-criminal as
pect of the case, in his opinion.
Later, when, although it was Sunday
night, bridge and music engrossed the
attention of most of the guests, he
managed to secure a few minutes
tete-a-tete with the girl.

but she was so upset that there was

Percy Nagel had heard about all he
needed to confirm his belief; never

as it was, he asked to be driven to

case was passed from one end of the
table to the other for the guests to

in his theory.
