without further urging the
young man headed toward the
rooming house. Agatha had to trot
to keep up with his swift stride.
Don't say word when you get
there!" she directed him. "Cleman-
tine and will talk as though there
is no one else in the room. You get
busy following the wires"
Taking her advice to be quiet, he
tiptoed up the stairs behind her.
Agatha trod as heavily as she could
to cover any sound he made.
Clemantine was hummlng a tune
inside the room. Agatha thought,
She's got spunk" She was proud
OF her daughter.
The girls face colored little as
Hans appeared in the doorway, but
the humming did not stop. She
pointed toward the back Of the
closet to indicate the location OF
the microphone. To Agatha she
said, did they have a newspaper
at the store?"

the deception. You were right. The
morning papers have been sold out,
and the afternoon papers haven't
come. Perhaps we can get the news
on the radio. You have one, haven't

pretty good. Don't you remember?
You gave It to me-"
"Oh, so I did. Well. let's turn IT
on" The radio would be a life
saver. It would relieve them from
the need to keep talking
The radio sat in the bottom Of
the closet. Clemantine made consid-
cradle unnecessary noise reaching
past Hans knees to get it--noise
that served to cover the sounds Of
his moving the clothes aside as he
peered up at the wire disappearing
over the top OF the shelf. Certainly
anyone listening at the other end
OF the line would be confused by
the dragging Of the radio case
across the floor.
Hans poked the air with a finger
to Indicate that the wire went into
the next room. Agatha's heart
quickened Tint was the fat girls

Hans tiptoed out the door and
down the hall. They heard nothing
further from him for n moment
no voices-so it was logical to as
sumo that the fat girl had departed
for her classes at last
Clemantine was fooling with the
radio dials. 'Therell be a lot Of

hoping the fat girl wouldn't catch
him there. She heard a window
scraping open. He'd probably
traced the wire outside the house
already, she decided. She was glad
II would be awful to know that
someone In this house was spying
on Clcmantlne.
The radio came 10 life in the mid
die OF one Of the usual morning Sc
rails. There wasn't much chance of
finding news now, but anything
that made a noise would do.
Through the open doorway Aga
tina saw Hans descending the
stairs He waved reassuringly to
her before he disappeared from
sight below the landing, confirming
her guess that the wiring went out
side. She heard the front door soft
ly open and close behind him.
The radio announcer was giving
a cake recipe. Agatha sat down on
the bed and bowed her head. She
was trembling. Mustn't let her
nerves get the better Of her now!
Maybe there's some music" said
Clemantine. I've tried all the sta
lions that might have news"
The front door reopened, without
any attempt at quiet this time, and
Hans came pounding up the stairs
He was surprisingly heavy. al
though he had not seemed unusu-
ally large. Agatha remembered he
was the football captain.
mo need TO worry about that
microphone any longer" he told
them. not In the slightest short Of
breath, although he had taken the
steps three at a time. It's not con-
nected."
Agatha stared at him In disbe-
lief.
Are you sure ," asked Clemsn-
tine.
II traced the wires down the out
side wall from the window In the
next room, and across the vacant
lot between here and the Marsh
lunchroom. They were hidden IN
the dry grass, and half way across
the lot they were broken OF. Who
ever was listening caught onto your
trick and pulled in his trail"
Agatha gasped. IF the wires
pointed that way, they must have
been pulled by someone in the
lunchroom"
Right. Looks suspicious. doesn't
it, That's where you found me"
Don't be silly! Who else Was
there?
I'm sure no one else In the
lunchroom was listening to any
microphone." He hesitated. ''Of
course it's a two-story building.

The two women exchanged star

phone concealed in the closet.

Half a block TO her right, beyond

they had mutinied; killed their commander and
set off to the Pacific a German raider. But
when it became known that the Cyclops was car
rying manganese it was decided that they had
carried it to Germany
But careful investigation offered no proof for
either of those theories
The United States Secret Service ruled out the
mine and torpedo stories. A 19,000-ton vessel,
strongly armored, with special bulkheads built
against collisions and accidents at sea, could not
be destroyed in an instant No matter how severe
the blow she would have had time to send out a
distress signal
Then came startling development!
A British steamer put in at a u. s. port on
Nav 9th from Rio de Janeiro. Her captain showed
a Portuguese newspaper, published at Rio on
March 10Th nearly month before the Navy
made the loss of the Cyclops known.
In the personal column was recorded that a
Requiem Mass was to be celebrated at church in
Rio de Janeiro "for the respose of the soul of
A. L. M. Gottschalk, who was lost when the
CyclopS was sunk at sea- 80
This paragraph was signed by many promin
citizens of Rio.
The Navy was aghast! What did this mean?
How did some private people IN Rio know Of the
loss of the Cyclops before the u. S. Navy Council?
Planes carrying the smartest operatives of the
Secret Service roared to Rio to find out who signed
the notice to discover how they knew Of the loss
and TO find out how the Cyclops had vanished
The editor of the paper had no information.

Her radio and signalling equipment was of the

In February, 1918, she sailed from Rio de
Janelro with cargo Of manganese ore for the

United States had been at war with Germany for
ten months.
She called at Barbados for coal Then on the
4th day Of March, 1913, she left under sealed
orders. Some said her destination was Hampton
Roads others said Baltimore.
On March 9th she passed five miles abeam Of
the Amaco On the 18th, the day before she was
due IN port, she Wireessed TO the Naval authorities
that one OF her two engines out of action but
that she was making way slowly
That was the last ever heard from the Cyclops
But it was not until April 18th nearly month
later that the public advised Of the tragic loss.
A riot of rumor choked the Press
The Cyclops had been torpedoed and all sur
vivors machines unned A gigantic mine had
blown her to flinders. SO beated the rumors.
But during that month the Navy had been
active. A squadron of destroyers searched every
inch of her last course Bays and nlets of the
Gulf of Mexico were carefully explored Even the
South Atlantic was secured. But never trace of
timber boat lfebets corpses was found to
tell the tale of this latest mystery of the sea
Suddenly it was announced in certain news
papers that the commander of the Cyclops was
German. 1t Commander G.. w Morley had
changed his name from Wichtman!

The Curious Disappearance of the Queen
of the Golfers

l'a by American wes> Britain Rights Reserved
TWENTY-FIVE years ago the Cyclops, Queen
Of the Golfers Of the United States Navy,
en- route from Rio de Janeiro, via Bar
bados, for the port Of Baltimore.
She was sighted off the Virginia Capes by the
S S. Amalco on the 9th of March 1918 Four days
later she was due in Baltimore.
But during those four days she disappeared
completely from the face Of the EARTH
19OO0-ton ship with 300 souls on board,
Nothing was ever found TO offer a clue TO the
mystery. The sea gave up nothing. Nothing was
ever washed ashore She was lost without trace.
The Cyclops was one of the proudest achieve
ments Of the L, S Navy. Built in Philadelphia in
1910 she was the biggest collier in the world; SIS
feet long, 65foot beam. She was we'll balanced.
streamlined and could drive through the toughest
seas on the five oceans.
She was designed to coal battle wagons at sea
while travelling at high speed. She would slam
along beside them. singing great carriers of coal

THE SEA hides many mysteries-strange stories OF
Il ships that have been abandoned by all hands in
the best Of weather. tales of senseless feuds and
frightful h1utines of savage fighting and sudden
death legends of disastrous voyages of ancient der
elicts and phantom ships.
All through her long and turbulent history, the
sea has guarded her secrets-1nd yet, from time 70
time, she persists in turning up additional clues that
give life to those old mysteries and puzzle the
men who try 20 solve them.
On these pages The American Weekly is present
ing Of these weird yarns and the evidence that
has been gathered in an effort TO explain them Some
OF these accounts taken from sea-stained, age
rotted log books; collected from the
musty records OF maritime courts; and some came
from old sailors, living in remote harbors and
haunted, perhaps, by memories OF their evil adj
ventures.

record He had served twenty-five years with
distinction in the u. S. Navy He had been en-
trusted with secret missions that, had he been
traitor, could have done far more damage to the
war effort than the loss of the Cyclops. He had
been brought to America as a child. His father OF
German origin, had changed his name from
Wichtman to Worley But the son had never
known any other name
Then it was discovered that some of the crew
were German-born citizens The rumor grew that
