Averted. tlabes, Tunis, Jan. 25.-- Details of an, engagement between the Turks and Anbvs and tue Italians near Glurgar IkIi, a small oasis about ten miles along the coast from Tripoli, on January 19, have reached hero and show that at the time cf the fighting the Italian destroyers had temporarily withdrawn. Boats laden with contraband ap proached the shore and opened a heavy fire on tho Italians. At the same time lOOO Turklsh regulars from Ain siarla prepared to attack the Italians from the rear. The Italians would have been anni hilated if by chance an aeroplane com Ing out to try Its motor had not been seen by the Turks, who became so alarmed that they were not able to I enrry out the turning movement. They Upt up their firing however until late nt nlcht. The Italians lost r.O klled ami 30 wounded. ' Wisconsin's new 65-hour-a-week law for women clerks is playing havoc with the retail clerks' union. It is said the union is losing many of Its women members as the result of tho law. The women argue that the state law protects them and does for them just what the clerks' union was ex pected to do.
