The closeness of the hall seemed choking her; she went to the front door and threw It open. The evening was clear and cool; but It was not from the chill of the air that she shivered as she gazed out at the woods through which she had driven with Hugh the night before. There the hunt for him had been going on all day ; there she pictured him novv, In darkness, In suffering, alone, hurt, hunted and with all the world but her against him! She ran dowm the steps and stood on the lawn. The vague noises of the house novv no longer were audible. She stood In the silence of the evening strained and fearfully listening. At first there seemed to be no sound outdoors other than the gentle rush of the waves on the beach at the foot of the bluff behind her; then, In the opposite direction, she defined the undertone of some confusion. Sometimes it seemed to he shouting, next only a murmur of movement and noise. She ran up the road a hundred yards In its direction and halted again. The noise was nearer and clearer a confusion of motor explosions and voices; and novv one sound clattered louder and louder and leaped nearer rapidly nnd rose above the rest, the roar of a powerful motor-car " open. racing with The rising racket of It terrified Harriet with Its recklessness and triumph.

One less certain of your fidelity than I am might have put another construction on your silence; one less certain, Avery, might have thought that, already knowing Eatons Identity, you preferred Instead of telling It to me to have me discover It for myself and so, for that reason, you trapped him Into a polo game In Harriets presence." For a moment Santoine paused ; the man across from him did not speak, hut Santolnes Intuition told him drew himself together for some shock. knowOf course, said Santoine, ing who Eaton Is gives us no aid In determining who the men were that fought In my study last night?"

All day they have been going down, Avery the securities, the stocks and search. Harriet went colder as she knew this ; then she ran up the road to meet the car coming. She saw the glare of Its headlights through the trees past a bend In the road ; she ran on and the beums of the cars headlight straightened and glared down the road directly upon her. The car leaped at her; she ran on toward It, arms in the air. The dntter of the car became deafening and the machine was nearly upon her w hen the driver recognized that the girl In the road was heedless and might throw herself before him unless he stopped. He brought his car up short and skidding. What Is It? he cried, as he mufiled the engine. What is it? What Is It? she cried In return. The man recognized her. Miss San-toln- e What Is it?

Harriet starteil the car nnd turned It back In the direction from which It bad come. She speeded and soon other headlights flared at liers n number of them ; four or five cars, at least, were In file up the road nnd men were crowding nnd horsemen were riding beside them. She rushed on so close that she saw he alarmed them; they cried a warning; the horsemen nnd the men on foot Jumped from beside the road nnd the lending car swung to one side; hut Harriet caught her car on the brakes and swung It straight across the road and stopped It; she closed the throttle and pulled the key from the starting mechanism and flung It into the woods. So she sat In the car, waiting for the captors of Hugh to come up. "Where is lie? she asked them. "Where Is he? They did not tell lier; but reply wns unnecessary, others eyes pointed hers to Hugh. He was In the back seat of the second machine with two men, one on each side of him. She stopped at the side of the car where he vvus nnd she put her hand on the edge of the tonneau.

How did you discover It? It was plain from the tirst there was something wrong with the man," Avery replied; but I had. of course, no way of placing him until he gave himself away at polo the other day.

Yet you are a very clover man; there Is no question about that. I have even found It worth while at times to talk over with you matters problems which were troubling me; to consult with you. Have I not? nes titular His name's HoIIock. owner of the place on the Michigan shore where Latron has been living. The telegram I sent night before last was addressed to his place, you know. He's been a sort of for Latron and the men those who knew who were managing the properties. Id never met him, though, Mr. Santoine, and I didnt know either him or HoIIock on the train. As I said, I wasn't in the know about killing Warden. When did you learn who Eaton was, Avery?' The day after we got back here from the West I got word from Latron; they didnt tell me till they needed to use me. Avery hesitated ; then he went on: You understand, sir, about Latrons pretended death a guide at the shooting lodge had been killed by a chance shot In the woods ; purely accidental ; some one of this party had fired at a deer, missed, and never knew hed killed a man with the waste shot. When the guide didnt come back to camp, they looked for him and found his body. He was a man who never would be missed or inquired for nnd was very nearly Latrons size; and that gave Latron the idea. At first there was no Idea of pretending he had been murdered ; It was the coroner who first suggested that. Things looked ugly for a while, under the circumstances, as they were made Either the scheme might public. come out or someone else be charged as the murderer. That put It up to Overton. Hed actually been up there to see Latron and had had a scene with him which had been witnessed. That part all but the evidence which showed that he shot Latron afterward was perfectly true. He thought that Latron, as he was about to go to trial, might be willing to give him information which would let him save something from the fortune hed lost through Latrons manipulations. The circumstances, motive, everything was ready to convict Overton; It needed very little more to complete the case against him. So it was completed. But after Overton was convicted, he was not allowed to be punished, sir. Santolne's lips straightened in conlie was nut allowed to be tempt. punished? Overton didnt actually escape, you know, Mr. Santoine that is, he couldnt have escaped without help; Latron wns thoroughly frightened and he wanted it carried through and Overton executed; hut some of the others rebelled against this and saw that Overton got away; but he never hed been helped. I understand it wns evidence of Latrons insistence on the sentence being carried out that Ward-found, after his first suspicions had been aroused, and that put Warden In a position to have Latron Med for his life, and made it necessary to kill Warden. Latron is dead, of course, Avery, or fatally wounded?" lies dead. Over Eaton, that Is, sir hit him last night with three Yes. am going to consult Very well; with you now. I have an Infirmity, as you know, Avery; I am blind. I have Just found out that for several years for about five years, to be exact; that is, for about the same length of time thnt you have been with me my blindness has been used by a certain group of men to make me the agent of a monstrous and terrible Injustice to an Innocent man. Except for my blindness except for that, Avery, this Injustice never could have been carried on. If you find a certain amount of bitterness In my tone, It Is due to that; a man who has an infirmity, A(ery, cannot well help being a little sensitive In regard to It. You are willing I should consult with you In regard to this?" Of course I am at your service, Mr. Santoine." Avery's voolce was 'harsh and dry. The blind nmn was silent for an Instant.

I say, your position here must have been rather profitable to you, Avery; I have not treated you badly myself, recognizing that you must often be tempted by gaining Information here from which you might make money ; and your other employers must have overbid me. I dont understand ; 1 beg your pardon, Mr. Santoine, but I do not follow what yon are talking nbout. No? Then we must go a little further. This Inst year a minor reorganization became necessary In some of the Latron properties. My friend, Gabriel Warden who was an honest man, Avery had recently greatly increased his Interest In those properties; It was inevitable the reorganization should be largely In his hands. During his work with the Latron propWarden the honest man, erties, Avery discovered the terrible Injustice of which I speak. I do not need to draw your attention, Avery, to the very peculiar condition which followed Wardens death. Warden had certainly had communication with Overton of some sort; Overtons enemies, therefore, were unable to rid themselves of him by delivering him up to the police because they did not know how much Overton knew. When I found that Warden had made me his executor and I went west and took charge of his affairs, their difficulties were intensified, for they did not dare to let suspicion of what hud been done reach me. There was no course open to them, therefore, but to remove Overton before my suspicions were aroused, even if It could be done only at desperate risk to themselves. What I am leading up to, Avery, Is these your own connection with You looked after your own events. interests rather carefully, I think, up to a certain point. When knowing who Eaton was you got him into a polo game, It was so that, if your interests were best served by expos, ng him, you could do so without re easing the real source of your knowledge of him. F.ut an unforeseen eent arose. The drafts and lists relating to the reorganization of the Latron properties containing the very facts r.o doubt, which fir-- t Lad aroused Warden's suspicions were sent me through Wardens ofiice. At first there was nothing threatening to yon in this, beiause their contents could reach me only thv u.ii you. Cut fit the uncertainty I felt. I had my daugh- ter take these matters out of vour hands. That n'ght, Avery, you sent an unsigned telegram troiu the office In the village, almost within twenty four hours m.v study was entered, the safe inaccessible to you was broken open, the contents were carried away.

Before Ills gaining control, the properties had been almost ruined by differences between the minor men who tried to run them; only the calling of Matthew Latron Into control saved those men from themselves; they required him to govern them; his taking away would bring chaos and ruin among them again. They knew that Just before he must go to trial. Latron himself became convinced that he faced confinement for the rest of his life; then fate effectively intervened to end all his troubles. Ills body, charred and almost consumed by flames but nevertheless the Identified body of Matthew Latron was found In the smoking ruins of his shooting lodge, which burned to the ground two days before his trial. Avery was hunched In the seat watching the blind man .with growing conviction and fear. Santoine went on: A young man was shown to have followed Latron to the shooting lodge; a witness appeared who had seen this young man shoot Latron; a second witness had seen him set fire to the lodge. The young man Hugh Overton was put on trial for his life. I, myself, as a witness at the trial supplied the motive for the crime; for, though I had never met Overton, I knew that he had lost the whole of a large fortune through investments recommended to him by Latron. Overton was convicted, sentenced to death ; he escaped before the sentence was carried out became a fugitive without a name, who If he ever appeared would be handed over for execution. For the evidence had been perfect complete; he had shot Latron purely for revenge, killed him In the most desno For there picable manner. doubt Latron was dead, was there, Avery? None, Avery said huskily. Thut was the time you came Into my employ, Avery, recommended to me by one of the men who had been closest to Latron. I was not connected with the Latron properties except as an adviser; but many papers relating to them must go inevitably through my hands. I was rather on the Inside in all that concerned those properties. But I could not myself see the papers ; I was blind ; therefore I had to have others serve as eyes for me. And from the first, Avery, you served as my eyes In connection with all papers relating to the Latron properties. If anything ever appeared in those papers which might have led me to suspect that any Injustice had been done in the punishment of murderer, It could reach me only through you. Nothing of that sort ever did reach me, Avery. You must have made quite a good thing out of It. s ! Say "Bayer and Insistl was the principal whoa agent! had failed in two attempta to get rid of Overton for hlin, whose other agent-your- self, Avery had failed to Intercept the evidence which would have revealed the truth to me, so that, no longer trusting to agents, hi himself had come In desperation to prevent my learning the facts? I realize fully, Avery, that by means of you my blindness and my reputation have been used for five years to conceal from tht public the fact that Matthew Latron had not been murdered, but was still alive Santoine heard Avery get up; ho stood an Instant nnd tried to speak, but his breath caught nervously; he made another effort. I didnt have anything to do with convicting Overton, or know anything about It until that part was all over; I never saw him till I saw him on the train. I didn't know Warden was going to be killed." "But you were accessory to the robbery of my house last night and, therefore, accessory to the murder of Wallace Blatchford. Last night, too, knowing Overton wras Innocent of everything charged against him, you gave orders to fire upon him af sight and he was fired upon. And what were you telling Harriet when I came in? You have told the police thnt Overton Is the murderer of Latron. Isnt that so the police will refuse to believe anything he may say and return him to the death cell for the sentence to be executed upon him? The law will call these things attempted murder, Avery. The blind man heard Avery pacing the floor, and then heard him stop in front of him. What Is It you want to know, sir V Who killed Warden? John Yarrow Is his name; he was a sort of hanger-oof Latrons. I dont know where Latron picked him up." Was it he who also made the attack on the train? Yes."
