lluueu. Cltlzen MaSl0lre having been
appointed to continue the surveillance
of Trudaine, reports the discovery of
additional facts of Importance. ID APP
pearances make it probable that Tru-
dame meditates a third secret visit to
the house in the Rue de Clery. The
proper measures are taken for observ-
ing him closely, and the result is the
implication Of another person discoY-
cred to be connected with the supposed
conspiracy. This person is the sister
of Trudaine, and the wife of Citizen Su-
perintendent Danville.'
Poor, lost creature!-ah poor, lost
creature! muttered Lomaque to him
self, signing again, and shifting un-
easily from side to side in his NANCY
old leathern arm chair. Apparently,
Magloire was not accustomed to signs,
Interruptions, and expressions of re-
greet, from the usually imperturbable
chief agent. He looked up from his
papers with a stare of wonder. GO
on. Magloirew cried Lomaque with a
sudden outburst of irritabiilty. why
the devil don't you go on?"-"All ready,
citizen" returned Magloire submits
sively, and proceeded:
"(2) 1t is at Trudaine's house that
the woman Danvilles connection with
her brothers secret designs is ascer-
tanned, through the vigilance of the be-
aforementioned patriot citizen. The in
terview of the two suspected persons
is private their conversation is car
ried on in whispers. Little can be over
heard; but that little sufilces to prove
that Trudaine's sister Is perfectly
aware of his intention to proceed for
the third time to the house on Rue de
Clery. 1t is further discovered that
she awaits his return, and that she
then goes back privately to her own
house. (3.) Meanwhile, the strictest
measures are taken for watching the
house in the Rue de Clery. 1t was dis
covered that Trudalne's visits are paid
to man and woman known to the
landlord and dodgers by the name of
Dubois They live on the third floor.
1t is impossible, at the time of the dis
covery, to enter this room, or to sec
the citizen and cheyenne Dubois with
aaaRt producing an undesirable disturb
ance in the house and neighborhood.
A police agent is left to watch the
place, while search and arrest orders
are applied for. The granting of these
is accidentally delayed. When they
are ultimately obtained, it is discov-
cred that the man and woman are both
missing They have not hitherto been
traced. a. The landlord of the house
is Immediately arrested as well as the
police agent appointed to watch the
premises. The landlord protests that
he knows nothing of his tenants. 1t is
suspected, however, that he has been
tempered with as also that Trudaine's
papers, delivered to the citizen and cit
oyenne Dubois, are forged passports.
With these and with money, it may
not be impossible that they have al
ready succeeded in escaping from
France. The proper measures have
been taken for stopping them, If they
have not yet passed the frontiers. No
further report in relation to them has
yet been received. 90 Trudaine and
his sister are under perpetual surveil-
lance; and the undersigned holds him
self ready for further orders.-Signed,
Magloire. Countersigned, Lomaque."
Having finished reading his notes,
Magloire placed them on The writing
table. He was evidently,a favored man
in the office, and he PRESUMED upon his
position; for he ventured to make re-
mark, instead of leaving the room in
silence, like his predecessor, Picard.
when Citizen Danville returns to
Paris" he began, che will be rather as
tonished to find that in denouncing his
wife's brother, he has also unconscious
ly denounced his wife"
Lomaque looked up quickly, Nth
that old weakness in his eyes which
affected them in such a strangely ir-
regular Mariner on certain occasions
Magloire knew what this symptom
meant, and would have become con-
fused If he had not been police agent.
AS 1t was, he quietly backed a step or
two from the table and held his tongue.
"Friend Magloire," said Lomaque,
winking mildly, your last remark
looks to me like question in disguise.
l put questions constantly to others
l never answer questions myself. You
want to know. citizen, what our super
intendent's secret motive is for de-
nouncing his wife's brother? Suppose
you try and find that out for yourself.
1t will be famous practice for you,
friend Maglolre-famous practice after
Office hours"
