stretched neck and protruding tongue,
n revolving object. His right arm lay
by his side, and the stump of the wrist
was clotted with black blood. Mr..
| Hardwicll's man was still in charge,
seemingly little pleased with his job,
and a few yards off stood couple of
countrymen, looking on.
Hewitt asked from which direction
these men had come, and, having
ascertained and noted their footmarks,
| he asked them to stay exactly where
they We're to avoid confusing such
other tracks as might be seen. Then
he addressed himself to his examina-
ton. First" he said glancing up at
the branch that was scarce a yard
above his head, ''this rope has been
here for some time"
Yes" Mr.. Hardwiek replied, ''it's an
old swing rope. Some children used it
In che summer, but it got partly cut
away, and the odd couple of yards has
been hanging since"
"Ah!' said Hewitt, "then if the Fos-
| ters did this they were sared some
| trouble by the chance and were able
to take their halter back with them
and so avoid one chance of detection"
He very closely scrutinized the top of a
tree stump, probably the relic of tree
that had been cut down long before,
and then addressed himself to the body.
"Whcn you cut it down." he said,
''did it fall in heap?"
mo, my man eased it down to some
extent"
mot ON to its face?"
''Oh, no. On to its back, just as it is
now" Mn Hardwicll saw that Hewitt
was looking at muddy marks on each
of the corpse's knees, to one of which a
small leaf cIung, and at one or two other
marks of the same sort on the fore part
of the dress. THAT seems to show
pretty plainly" he said ''that he must
have struggled with them and was
thrown forward, doesn't it?"
Hewitt did not reply, but gingerly
lifted the right arm by its sleeve. 'Is
either of the brothers Foster left
handed?" he asked.
mo, l think not. Here. Barrett,
you have seen plenty OF their doings-
cricket, shooting and SO on-do you re-
member if either is left-handed?"
"Nayther, SIR" Mr.. Hardwick's man
answered. "Both on ems right
handed"
Hewitt lifted the lapel of the coat
and attentively regarded small rent
in it. The dead mans hat lay near, and
after few glances at that Hewitt
dropped it and turned his attention to
the hair. This was coarse and dark
and long, and brushed straight back
with no Flirting
''This doesn't look very symmetrical.
does it?" Hewitt remarked, pointing to
the locks over the right ear. They
were shorter just there than on the
other side, and apparently very elum-
silly cut, whereas in every other part
the hair appeared to be rather well and
carefully trimmed. Mr.. -Hardwick said

Some OF Its Points.

London, Aug. 15.-The House Of Com
mons met at 2 O'Clock, this afternoon
and were at once summoned by the Csher
of the Black Rod to the House of Lords
TO hear the reading of the Queens speech.
Among other things it said The war
between China and Japan, which was in
progress az the opening of the last ses
sion, has been brought to conclusion by
a peace which. l trust, will be enduring
have observed strict neutrality during
the war and have not taken any action in

hostilities

active measures, which trust will prove
elective, are being taken to punish the
murderers and all who were in any de
gree responsible for these crimes
Internal troubles which shave broken
out In the Armenian districts of Asiatic
turkey have been attended with horrors
which have moved the indignation of the
Christian nations of Europe generally,
and my people especially. Ny ambassador
and the ambassadors of the Emperor of
Russia and the President of the French
republic, acting together, have suggested
to the government Of the Sultan the re-
forms which in their opinion are neces-
sary to prevent the recurrence of constant
disorder. These proposals are now being
considered by the Sultan and am anx-
lousy awaiting his decision.
A resolution has been passed by both
Houses Of Parliament of the Cape of Good
Hope proposing that the ancient crown
colony of Bechuaraland should be incor-
porated with Cape Colony. l signified
| that / was willing to consider favorably
an act for that purpose provided iG CON
tained proper safeguards to my Interests
and those OF my native subjects.
| In the House of Lords, Lord Rosebery
said in regard to the outrages in China,
that he would like to know whether the
missionaries returned to their posts after
| being warned not to go by the British
minister to China.
With reference to the Armenian out
RACES, Lord Rosebery declared that re-
currencc of these horrors tended to shorten
the life Of the Sultan's government
among civilized communities.
He said that he regretted the absence in
the speech of any reference to the govern
ment policy toward ireland. Its policy
must be active not merely negative.
Irish affairs, to be satisfactorily con
Quoted, must be managed by the Irish
| themselves.
Prime Minister Salisbury said the
shorlncss Of the speech was justified in
view of the short session to be held.

TEXTILE WORKERS. WAGES.
Manufacturers See But Little Prospect Of
Their Being Advanced.

Fall River, Aug 15-The manufact
urcrs who will talk about the attitude ol
the textile unions on the wage question
do not give much encouragement of an
advance. They concede that the outlook
is brighter, that dividends have been taic
ard that prices are tending upwards.
Despite these conditions, they contend
that the operatives and their friends are
losing sight of the fact that cotton is tWu
cents a pound higher, today, than year
ago, and that everything else connected
with the running of the mills is tending
upward. And they see nothing in the
outlook to warrant the belief that they
will go lower.
The mill men say that the dividends
very largely have been the result of specu-
lation in cotton When business was at n
low ebb and there was very little hope
that the present revival would be 81
quickly at hand, many bought cotton at
a very low figure.
For the first two or three months of the
year they were compelled to accept con
traces at low figure to keep the help to
gether, and the profits since made bring
them out about even.
II they were allowed to act as iBdivid
uals they would not care If wages went
up, but they are governed by so many
stockholders who look for dividends regu-
larry, and dividends cannot be given ii
the pay rolls are revised on Il higher basis
One manufactures said the way to con
slider profits is to figure on the margin as
1t stands, today, with cotton at 9-lt
cents and cloth at cents for contracts,
If will be seen that to even hint at 81
cents is unfair and rs cents is nearer the
real figure

But it is not Sc much the lack of work as the

message of twigs. A cart wheel had
passed over and crushed them, but it
had not so far displaced them as to
cause any doubt that the direction to
take was to the right. At an inn lit
tie further along we entered and
Hewitt bought a pint of Irish whisky
and fat bottle to hold it in, as well as
a loaf OF bread and some cheese, which
we carried away wrapped in paper.

that they belong to the man who
walked alone, which was Sneathy. OF
the others, the marks of the outside feet
the left on the left side and the right
on the right-are often not visible.
Clearly they belong to the two men
walking side by side and, more often
than not, treading with their outer
feet on the grass at the side. And
where these happen to drop on the
same spot as the marks in the middle,
they cover them. Plainly, they are the
footmarlls of Henry and Robert Foster,
made as they followed Sneathy. Don't
you agree with me. Mr.. HEWITT"
"Oh, yes, that's very plain. You
have better pair of eyes than most
people, Mr.. HardwiclS, and good idea
of using them to. We will go on to the
wood now. As matter of fact, l can
pretty clearly distinguish most of the
other footmarks-those on the grass,
but that's matter of much training"
We followed the footpath, keeping
on the grass at its side, in case it should
be desirable to refer again to the foot

the wood the tracks continued as before.

See there" cried Mr.. HardwiclS,
pointing triumphantly to the spot,
this is where they overlook him, and
walked on either side. The body was
found only little further on-you
could see the place now if the path
didn't zig-zag about So"
Hewitt said nothing, but stopped and
examined the tracks at the sides with
great care and evident thought, span
ming the distances between them COM
paratively with his arms. Then he
rose and stepped lightly from one mark
to another, taking care not to tread on
the mark itself. Very good" he said,
shortly, on finishing his examination.
Wen go on"
We went on, and presently came to
the place where the body lay. Here
the ground sloped from the left down
toward the right and a tiny strcamlet,
mere tricllle of a foot or two wide
ran across the path. In rainy seasons
it was probably wider, for all the earth
and clay had been washed away for
some feet on each side, leaving fiat
bare and very coarse gravel, on which
the trail was lost. Just beyond this
and to the left, the body lay on grassy
knoll under the limb of a tree from
which still depended a part Of the cut
rope. 1t was not a pleasant sight. The
man was soft. fleshy creature, prob
ably rather under than over the me-
dunn height, and he lay there, with his
