"Oh, this is ridiculous said Wad- dell.
 Pyro made no answer but he rung up the telephone. Give me No. 1576S." !" That was given him.
 Hello; switch me on to New York, will you? Using the line? Well, I'll wait ent-Yes--yes--all right give me New York-New York City. Is that New York?-I say, is that New YorkP All right"
 "Now, then, whom shall l call up?" he said, turning to Waddell.
 Waddell was speeches..
 "Tell me any of your friends; where's-who's your partner, by the way?"
 Waddell gave the name of his part ner. And then he shouted: "Give me Waddell & Co.,, Waddell X Co. Is Mar tin there? Oh, not come down yet; all right"
 Not come down, nonsense" said Waddell. This is after one o'clock. "
 "Ah, but you must remember it is a great deal earlier in New York. Say, what is Vain's address? Where's his place of business?
 "On Broadway. Harrison & Vain, you know"
 Say, give me Harrison &s Vain x Harrison X Vain, Broadway-I don't know the number-Yes, is that liar rison & Vain? This is Lon don. Yes. England, of course. Is Mir. Vain there? Well, would you just ask him to step to the telephone for a moment? We'll, tell him Mir. Waddell, in London, wants to speak with him. Tell him he'll only keep him moment. At his letters? Well% never mind that. You tell him that we can't hold the line here all day. Ask him to come to the phone. Oh, is that you, Mir. Vain? This is Pyro Kinone, of London. Yes, Waddell's here. Will you speak to him? Certainly.
 Here you are, Mir. WaddeIl," and the astonished Waddell put the receiver to his ear
 Hello, Waddeu, is that you?" said the voice over the wire. How did you get over? Have a nice passage?"

 Then Vain pumped him full to his horror about a great number of fail ures in New York, of men that he knew and men that he was in intimate association with. Ills jaw dropped as he listened.
