trance, that although there was no
farther. and that Turkish gunners on
shore II they struck anything must
have hit their own degtroyers. In his
article. Signor FOIL says:
Commander Milo said that when
he reached the second cable under the
Baikouch Tepe battery, the Spica
stopped, and that this stop permitted
him to observe the water space be-
yond the narrows, BY looking at the
plan it will be seen that this water
space Is the Fay Of Chanak. From
this point the commander watched the
fixing from the IiamaXieh battery. and
considered 1t impossible to pass the
zone Of action commanded by this bat"
terry without sacrificing all the squad
ron, and therefore gave the order to
return, Therefore the truth Is that
the Italian torpedo boats did not pass
beyond the KIlid Bahr- Chanak line.
In the report Of Commander Milo
there Is one certainly involuntary In.
eXaCtitude-his persuasion that he
saw the Turkish feet and that he was
fired on by It. II he did not pass the
Kilid Bahr-Chanak line, he could not
have seen tho Turkish fleet anchored
in the Fay Of Niagara, and most Ger
tainly he could not have been fired or
BY 1t. The Turkish feet did not fire
a single cannon.
But it Is clear that Commander
Milo was misled by the numerous
steamships and by two or three Tur-
kiSh torpedo boats anchored In the
BAY of Chanak; It was probably these
vessels that, hidden In the darkness
Of the night and the shadows Of the
numerous searChlights were mistaken
for the opposing fleet. and he could
easily have mistaken for the guns Of
this feet the guns fred from Hama
2irh aud Chanak Kalessi.
There Is nothing strange or mad
MISSILE in this explanation, given the
conditions Of time and the nervous
tension produced on all. 1t is even
more possible when we think that a
high parsonage of the ministry Of ma
rinc' furnished one Of the most I'M
portant newspapers with a sketch map
Of the raid in which the Bay OF
Chanak was COMPOUNDED with Magyar,
placing Chanak on the other side Of
the narrows and fixing the anchorage
Of the Turkish feet exactly in this
Ray Of Chanak where Commander
Milo thought he saw them"

Two rejected suitors are being

According to the story told by the

who, in 1864, having been condemned
to death for harboring thieves, was
left hanging on the gallows from 8
o'clock Monday morning until sun
rise Thursday, but revived on being
taken down. Henry III. granted her
a pardon.

remembered nothing, saying that her
revival was like awakening from Q
