1 1; GALL ON WILSON FOR REPORT ON TRAU INCIDENT Landing of American Marines on Dalmatian Coast Sub ject of Debate in Sen . ate Chamber. My HEART .and My HUSBAND Adele Garrison's New Phase of Revelations of a Wife Washington, Sept. 30. Landing of -American marines at Trau, Dal tnatia, to dislodge Italian forces which had occupied the town was difcussed in congress again today. The senate, after sharp debate, adopted a resolution by Senator New. republican of Indiana, calling on-President Wilson for a report of the incident if not incompatible with the Dublic interest. Secretary Daniels said no further report on the landing of the Amer icans had been received from Rear Admiral Read, commanding the American forces in the Adriatic. The officer has been asked to send additional details. Divide Coast Patrol. Mr. Daniels said the division of the Dalmatian coast for patrol by American, French and Italian naval forces had been decided upon by a board of admirals representing the United States, Great Britain, France and Italy and approved by the peace conference, and that the plan was to remain in force until final dispo sition oi tne uaimauaii territory uv the peace conference. I he commanders of the patroi i ling naval forces, he added, were 1 responsible for the preservation of order, on that portion of the coast Ijnssigned them and that Admiral irndrews had ample authority to f take such steps as he deemed necessary io picvciu uisuiuct. Claim No Filibuster. During the senate debate on the new tesolution, charges by Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, administra tion leader in the treaty fight, that ihe republicans were using the Trau and other incidents in Europe to "heckle" the president and were 1 filibustering to delay the peace treaty, brought sharp denials from Republican Leader Lodge and Sen ator Fall, republican, New Mexico. Senator Lodge said there had been no filibuster on the treaty and that there would be none, bt that senators who desired to discuss the document would not be denied the opportunity. He added that if the enati weie given information as to "the Trau incident and as to what commitments had been made rela tive to American participation in Euui:an affairs debate on the treaty would be shortened.

What Madge Determined to do. The man who had given me the name of George Bridgeham stared at me unpleasantly. "An order from Mr. Stockbridge," he said harshly. "Of course I haven't any such thing. Mr. Stock bridge entrusted those papers to you, and he expected you'd honor any request of his for them." His voice was truculent, threaten ing. I felt my anger rise at him. ' "Perhaps I would, any request of his," I said coldly, meaningly. "A request from his attorneys is the same thing," he said in a more conciliating manner. Evidently he (",id not wish to quarrel with me. That meant that I. not he, held the winning cards in the game of wits. "I agree with you I answered coolly. "Then what are you waiting for?" he demanded turning on me. I don't see any use in delaying the game." There was a greediness in his eyes which made me more determined than ever to give him no satisfaction concerning Mr. Stockbridge's papers until I have investigated the history of Mr. George Bridgeham. I rose to my feet with decision. "You are waisting your time, Mr. Bridgeham," I said curtly. "I have told you that I hold nothing but school records of Mr. Stockbridge, and those I will deliver only to an accredited representative of my pria cipal who holds-a written order in Mr. Stockbridge's own handwrittinp;. He thrust his jaw forward with an ugly gesture. "D'ye mean that?" he snarled. "I most certainly do," I returned. "Well, you've got a nerve!" he began roughly, but I stepped to the door, flung it wide open, and bowed stiffly. "You will pardon me, I am sure, Mr. Bridgeham. for I am too busy to be detained longer." "You'll Regret This." His face flushed, and I saw a vis ible struggle with himself taking place. His thwarted vanity urged him to unpleasantness, his prudence counselled acquiescence in my dis missal. As a compromise he stalk ed out of the door, pausing only to say savagely: You 11 deeply regret this, young woman before many days." I sank into a chair as soon as the door closed behind him, completely unnerved. For not only then had J. realized that his demand meant if he were not in truth one of Kenneth Stockbridge's attorneys. I looked at it from every angle, there were but two explanations of his call on me. Either he really was an accredited representative of Mr. Stockbridge in which case I had failed my principal greviously or else, most terrifying prospect for me, he belonged to the enemy camp,' and had discovered the fact that the accused man had telephoned me at the schoolhouse but a few minutes before his wife's death. The first alternative, much as.'T prefered to believe it, was put out of my mental court by my common ,ense. iMo man wno naa aispiayea as much anxiety over the secret safe-keeping of his personal papers as had Kenneth Stockbridge, would dream of sending a messenger with no credentials for them. No, "Mr. Bridgeham" must be in the employ either of the state or of Milly Stockbridge's family. Madge Makes a Decision. There was but two ways that he could have discovered my posses sion of the private papers from the principal's desk by the admission of the principal himself, or by the trac ing of the telephone calls, the probability that the operators had "listened in" on the day of Milly Stockbridge's mysterious death. I knew that unless Kenneth Stockbridge himself had lost his reason he would never had betrayed the existence of the secret he had kept so long, the evidence of which ! he had entrusted to my care. Cen-! tral must have "listened in," had j overheard the principal's call, in all probability she had heard the wild raucous tirade of his wife a few I minutes earlier. i Two or three days before I had ! seen a rat that had been troubling) the chicken house, and which Tim had caught in a trap. The sight of the terrible creature's futile circling of the walls of the trap, and his savage biting of the wires had affected me most, unpleasantly at the time. The memory fairly sickened me now. for I felt that I, too, was in a trap from which there was no escape. Katie s voice recalled me to my self. "Vot matter. Meesis Graham?" pshe said with alarm in her yoice, as she came down the stairs. xou vite as vun sheet. Vot dot man say? He vant to rob you?" I pulled myself together with an effort. This was no way to face an emergency, I thought with grim contempt for my own tremors. And above all, Katie must suspect nothing- "No indeed Katie," I said, spring ing to my feet. "The man was only a troublesome book agent. I soon got rid of him, but I guess the heat has affected me. I felt a little dizzy all of a sudden." "Dot cake!" Katie exclaimed in remorse. "Dot kitchen too hot fcr you. I ought to feex table in din ing room." "What nonsense!" I exclaimed. "I shall be all right in a moment. But will you please look after my cake? I must do some telephoning right away." For I knew thatl must find out at once if possible the names of the associates of Horace Kent, the emi nent attorney engaged for the de fense of Kenneth Stockbridge. (Continued Tomorrow.)
