GODDESS

ENGLISH SI GREA T

GERMAN WARSHIP

Slav Admiralty Says Two Ger-

man Cruisers and Eight Tor-

pedo Boats Alto Destroyed.

Contiuued from First Page,of Pernov bay, on the northeasternshoulder of the Gulf of Riga.

Either the accompanying warshipswere unable to support the landing ofthe troops or the Russian strategy Insome way overcame the advantage ofGerman naval guns, for the troops werepermitted to land and .were then at-tacked and exterminated by the Rus-sian forces at that point.

Russ Losses Not Stated.The. Russian troops at Pernov did not

even have the support of artillery. Furthermore they were taken completelyby surprise. How they accomplishedthe utter defeat of a force which musthave numbered some 8,000 mon, aidedby the gunfire of convoying wars"hlps,and later captured the transports aswell Is not explained.

In giving this account of Russian suc-cesses In the Gulf of Riga the presi-dent of the duma said nothing respect-ing the Russian losses during the navalengagement or while the Germans wereattempting to land a body of men onPernov bay.

Von Hindenburg Cheeked.Along with the news of a naval vic-

tory came word from the war officethat von Htndenburg's attempt to turnthe Russian right flank has met withstubborn resistance that has broughtthe Germans to a halt.

The newspapers headed reports of theRussian naval victory with lines suchas "A Great German Rout." and de-manded to know If German newspaperswould continue, their talk of a separatepeace with Russia. They printed promi-nently the statements of Foreign Min-ister Sazanoff to Petrograd newspaperpublishers yesterday with reference topeace rumors.

"These rumors of a separate peaceare due to repeated enemy overtures toFrance and Russia," said 'the foreignminister. "These have been totally re-jected.

New Attack Not Expected."The enemy's attempts to sow dis-

cord among the allies Is predestined tocomplete failure. The ties binding theallies are only strengthened thereby,and their confidence In the ultimate at-tainment of their common ends Is un-wavering."

Military critics here took the viewthat the severe defeat reported to havebeen administered the Germans in theGulf of Riga engagement will end theattempt to land troops from transportsto aid in the attack on Riga. The Ger-mans having once penetrated the gulfwith strong forces and having beendriven off, It was held that the attemptwould not be repeated.

FIFTEENTH INSTALLMENT.BARCLAY'S servants

GORDON to admit no oneorders. The city

was In a turmoil. With eachfresh edition of the newspapers thesituation of the conspirators becamemore serious. In the public parkaeffigies of them were hanged or burned.It became necessary to keep a cordonof police about Barclay's nouse. InSemmes' house and Sturtevant's nowindow remained whole. For twentyhours these two men had beeen Bar-clay's guests.

Gunsdorf's great hour had come thathour for which he had plotted all hislife, and lied tor and schemed for. Hehad been the leading figure In the mobthat had tried to lynch the triumviratein the first burst of rage. And hefound himself suddenly at the head ofall the lawless elements in the city.He was drunk with power and a senseof his own Importance. But openly hspoke of his love for mankind.

Through a man friendly to him anddeep in Gunsdorf's councils, Tommylearned that the life of the man whohad adopted him and been good to himwas In danger. His house was to bestormed over the heads of the police,and himself hanged or torn to pieces,as might happen.

All their differences fled from Tom-my's mind and he remembered onlytheir mutual affection: so he hurriedto the old familiar house and waspresently admitted.

"It's Just to say a few words," saidTommy, and he told Barclay whatGunsdorf was planning for that veryday.

Gordon Barclay had turned very grayIn tha last few days. He wai a brokenand disappointed roan. BtlU he clungwarmly to that remnant of life whichremained to him.

"We'll go to Gull Island," he saidsimply, "fill this thing has blown over.I suppose you are not unhappy aboutwhat ha happened. It's a pity shecame back . . Tommy, when wequarreled I waa ambitious for poweronly. Later 1 began to think thatCelestla waa a real panaoea for a sickworld. So that if I had ben destinedto rule. 1 would have ruled for thegood of the peeple. I want you toknow that what began In cynicismepJed In faith and honesty. I haveput you back In my will for practicallyeverything I possess. Carlton Fitch hasturned knave. Mary. If she marrieshim, will be worthy of him."

"You'll need somebody to keep housefor you at Gull Island." said Tommy.He was too moved to refer to what hehad Just learned. "I'll get Celestlathere as quickly as I can."

"Have you married her?"Tommy looked very manly when he

Bald that he had. And Barclay smiledon of his old-tim- e dassllng smiles.

"And I think." he sata, finally, "thatyou had better get out of this houseas quickly as you can. I'm going, too.I can't afford to be a hero."

Late that night Tommy and Celestlaand Freddie the Ferret, whom Tommywas trying to train to be his valet,caught the last boat for Bartell's, onBartell's Island, from which Gull'sIsland may be reached In an hour Ina fast launch. They had had no wordof what had happened In New York.At Mlssaquld, the point of departurefor Bartell's, there seemed to be somosort of a rumor tn the air and a stateof suppressed excitement. Usually itis a town that goes to bed very early.But this was not the case tonight.There was a rough looking crowd atthe station, and at the wharf.

Tommy, without arousing suspicion,could not find out If Barclay, Bemmesand Hturtevant had gpne on ahead orwere following,

Gulf Island resembles a loaf of breadthat has risen too much. A rounded,billowing top Is set upon high, almostperpendicular, sides There Is only onel&ndlng place, and from this the habit-able portions of the island are reachedby a steep and narrow path. A deter-mined man with a pile of cobblestonescould stand off an army.

It was Gordon Barclay's favorite es-tate. The timber was mostly scrub oakand scrubby little pines, but In a densegrove of these Barclay had built a low,rambling house which was very dearto him, and wonderful rose gardenswhich were een dearer.

In this Island retreat, open and readyfor the master the year round, the tri-umvirate. If only they could reach It,would be as safe from mob violence ason a ship at sea.

A steep climb, a wild expanse of star-lit moor, little ancient trees growingvery close together, a strong perfumeof bayberry bushes, of sweet fern androses, and then the d, softly-lighte- d

In short. It was about as natay amorning as you could ask for. But toCelestla and Tommy the weatherseemed heavenly, and expressly manu-factured for lovars and love-makin- g.

At the gates stood two footmen readyto fling them open. Most of the crowdwas at the front of the house. In thenarrow alley at the back there waa onlya scattering of riffraff. One of the menon the box handled a double-barrele- dshotgun. In Sturtevant's hand, cooked,was a .45 automatic.

Meanwhile the bronze boy of thafountain came up the front stair, bat-tered head first, and was used to ramdown the door behind which Barclayhad been s.een to disappear.

The first man to enter the long, richlibrary was Gunsdorf. He gave onlya K'lance at the open panel which dls-cloE- ed

the Inviting; Interior of a safe,or at the greenbacks and yellowbacksof all denominations which the wlleyfinancier had scattered about theloom, en tables, on chairs, on thafloot such things were for children.

Raging for his comrades to followhim, Gunsdorf rushed the length oftho room, found the bark stair downwhich Barclay had retreated, andcame in less time thnn it takes to tellIt to the service court at the back otthe houre.

But nobody followed Gunsdorf. Theopen safe, the scattered bills, stop-ped men as a solid cliff might have,done. Vengeance was forgotten, anathe crowd began to loot.

When Gunsdorf reached the court-yard the gates were half open. OnstronK steel braokets fixed to thoback of the car were two spare rims,with Inflated tires. These formed a,

resting place for Gunsdorrs feet anaa grip for his hands. But the firstforward leap of the car. followed bya hair-raisin- g swrve to the left, al-

most threw him off.Shots were fired. The car went OTer

something soft that screamed andthat remained In the stroet after thacar had passed, and thwaefced like a,

newly landed fish.--Gunsdorf stood upon the spare twee

and clung to them, and the lights orNew York whirled by.

The scene of ihe riot was far behind.Un Fifth avenue the car raced. It waathat hour before dark when n the rum-

The old fishlna town of Glddlngs waedark as sin. The financiers, confer-ring, had determined to make this,rather than Mlssaquld, their point of de.parture. They would be too late tocatch the last boat for Bartell's. Gld-dln- g.
