LinCon, oept. l4.-tSpecial.)- IL hey
are off. Lincoln's little army of SOL
diers which has BEEN such a con-
spicuous figure on the streets for the
past two months has gone and they
will be missed.
The streets of Lincoln were we'll
filled at 9 o'clock this morning with
those who were anxious to-bid God
speed to the boys who have offered
their services otheir country and
who will bring added luster to the
old flag across the waters.
In honor of the leaving Of the sol.
diers this morning. most OF the state
house Offices were closed from $50
until ii, so that those interested
could go to the trains. ... -,
At $3.50 the streets had been cleared
along the line of march from head
quarters to the Burlington and the
Fifth regimental band marched from
its quarters OH Fourteenth and P to
the headquarters of the Sixth at Six
teenth and o where the line was
formed and with the people cheering
along the street marched to the sta
ton where they entrained for Fort
Deming.
For more than half an hour the
street car service was abandoned on
the line of march. Flags were\fying
from the windows of the business
houses along the line and the people
cheered loudly as the tramp, tramp,
tramp of the soldiers was heard as
they swung along teh line of march.
AS the last company, passed, the peo-
pie turned tehir faces toward the sta
tion and before the train pulled out
thousands OF men, women and chill

watch them go. '.'
DR.. Hall Heads March.
The line formed at guard headquar-
ters with teh Fifth regimental band
as escort. AT the head of the line
was the car of DR.. P. L. Hall with
the doctor at the wheel and Colonel
Paul of the Fifth regiment on the
front seat. In the rear seat was
Colonel Phil Hall and Major Bartho-

the units of the Sixth regiment fol-
lowing, headquarters company, fifty
seven men; supply company, thirty
nine men; sanitary detachment, thir-

and l24 men.
At the train there was some delay
in starting. Soon after arriving a

from Walthill, which has more than
Sixty Indians enrolled in the company

There were the usual handshaking,
the usual goodbys, the pathetic fare

on the whole it was a jolly crowd

on the cars and left for somewhere"
1t was the long-looked-for hour when

SAN GABRIEL
FALLS BEFORE
|TALY'S DRIVE
Invaluable Vantage Point Sur
renders After Heavy Losses;
Occupy Crest Of
Mountain.

Washington, Sept. 14.-1talian
troops have taken from the Austro-
Hungarians the fortified hill of Dol
and the Gargaro basin and now oc-
cupy the slope and top of Monte San
Gabrielle after severe fighting.
The Italian embassy in announcing
the capture today said it is the great
est victory gained by, the Italians
since their entrance into the war. 9
The capture of. all Austro-Hun-
garian positions on Monte San Cab
fieie is expected to be matter Of
hours. The fighting in the region Of
the forest of Tarnovow was very
severe, as the Austrians had assem-
bled an enormous force of artillery
there.
The positions there were taken by
infantry attack at heavy cost to the
Italians.
The battle has been raging twenty
days. Last week the Austrians
changed from defensive and began an
offensive, using masses of their best
troops against the Italian positions.
The loss of San Gabrielle will mean
for the Austrians, the embassy says,
the loss of all the vantage points
against the Gorilla plain and the
Frigido valley.
Further details tell how the Italian
infantry went up the slopes of the
mountain, making short gains at the
cost of heavy sacrifices. The battle
field was covered with the dead of
both armies, but the Italians, in spite
of their heavy losses, obtained a Sc
cure position from which they can
she'll the enemy. From now ON, it
is believed, the battle will be more
Of an artillery engagement.

WHEAT PRICE IS
SE'TTLEDAT$2.15,
SAYS SH0RTH|LL
Director Of Food Administra-
ton Advises Farmers to Take
Advantage Of 0pportu-
nifty Offered.

MANY farmers do net yet realize
the immense benefit which will come
to them because of the legislation fix
ing the price of wheat at $2l5 a
bushel for Missouri river points" de-
clared J.-W. Shorthill of York., Neb.,
a director of the Food Administration
Grain corporation, the government
organization which handles the wheat
under direction of Herbert Hoover.
There are several points which the
farmers should grasp in order to un-
derstand how this law protects them,"
continued Mr. Shorthill.
No World Shortage.
There is no shortage in the worlds
wheat supply. The only shortage
which exists is in the available wheat
supply. There are vast quantities Of
wheat in Russia, India, Australia. But,
because of their distance and the exi-
gencies of war, these supplies cannot
be secured at present for US or our
allies. Suppose the war ends some
time within the next year. Then all
this wheat would be released. 1t
would be carried across the seas. The
price of wheat in this country would
drop. 1t might go down to Is cents.
Price is Guaranteed.
"Here is where the law fixing the
price of wheat protects the farmer.
1t absolutely guarantees him $2.l5
bushel for his wheat any time and all
the time from now until May, 1919.
1t doesn't matter how much he raises
or how much is brought across the
seas from Australia, India and else
where, the government is absolutely
pledged to pay him $2.15 for all the
wheat he wants to sell between now
and May, 1919.
Nothing can change this. Willy
tongued agitators have been going
about, trying to tell the farmers that
this can be changed. But it cannot.
The law protects the farmer. He is
safe in putting every possible acre in

KELLY SCORES
Testimony of Bluffs Laundry
Workers Relative to Blood.
spotted Linen Not Ad-
mitted in Case.
BY EDWARD BLACK.
tStaff Correspondent for The Bee.)


Red Oak, Ia, Sept. l4-(Special
Telegram.)--The second week of the
Kelly trial was brought to a close
this afternoon, when Judge Boies ad.
journed court at $50 o'clock, for the
week end, the court and lawyers re.
turning promptly to tehir homes.
The trail will be resumed at 9
o'clock Monday morning. During the
week. the jury was empaneled, OPEN
ing statements were made to the Jury
and the prosecution reached the nine
teenth witness of long list of per-
sons, who have been summoned.
The prosecution encountered at
least temporary defeat on what is
known as the laundry feature of its
chain of evidence, said to have been
obtained against the defendant. In a
statement issued last May and in his
opening statement to the jury, Attor-
ney General Havner stated the prose-
cution would show that Kelly sent
within two or three days after the
crime was committed, a package of
laundry to the Bluffs City Laundry,
Council Bluffs, with request that Il
should be returned to Mascedonia."
Evidence Ruled Out.
The state said it would show that
the laundry had evidence of blood
stains and that Kelly obtained the
bundle when it was returned to Mace
donia.
Mrs. Cora Marquard, marker in the
laundry during 1912, and William C..
Miller, Macedonia druggist, who gave
the laundry back to Kelly, were
placed on the stand by the state, but
Mitchell, for the defense, successfully
resisted their testimony.
The court ordered their testimony
stricken out and admonished the jury
to eliminate from their minds the tes-
tlmony of these witnesses.
The laundry point, you may safely
say, has blown up" remarked Attor-
ney Sutton, after adjournment. The
prosecution, however, intends to re-
introduce this testimony in manner
which they believe will overcome OBJ
jections of the defense and the court.
During the afternoon Attorney
General Havner took a relay at ex-
animation Of witnesses. Attorneys
Hess and Faville served earlier in the
day.

w. R, Daniels, Burlington agent at
Sidney, Ia, during June, 1912, was
called to verify station records that
two tickets were sold to Carson, Ia,
to corroborate evidence of Mr.. and
Mrs. William Simonds, who testified
during the morning that on the morn
ing of June 10, 1912, they travelled
from Sidney to Carson and observed
Kelly on the train.
Competency of this testimony by
Daniels is held in allegiance until At
