The Work VIII Continue.

The divisions of the Baltimore &
Ohio Railroad west of the Ohio river
are to receive the same sort of i'm
provements that have been made on
the lines east of the Ohio. Not only
are the grades 10 be reduced wherever
it is practicable, but very much heaV-
Ter motive power is to be introduced.
In order to carry the additional weight
the bridges on all the divisions are
being replaced with heavier structures
and the track relaid with heavier steel
rail. II has been demonstrated by ac-
tual experiment that these changes
will result in an increase in tram load
ing in some places of more than 30
per cent. the average being about -
per cent. 1t is the hope of the receiv-
ers that within the next two years the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad will be an
1S-foot grade road from Chicago to
Baltimore, with the exception of that
portion of it which passes over the
mountains where helping engines Will
have TO be used. A great many OF the
estimates for the different portions OIL
the work have been made, and those
who have seen the plans state that the
work can be done at Il surprisingly
low cost considering the return. Ii
is understood that the policy OF re-
Mobilization adopted by the receivers

CHAPTER III.

THE CHASING OF GEORGE FENTON.
This is the story of what George Fen
ton did after he left me with the corpse
in Back Saville street that awful
night. learned it chiefly from the ac-
count which the papers gave of the
chase by the police, but some of the de.
tails were told me afterward by Fenton
himself. After he ran out of my sight
he had not sufficient presence Of mind
to slacken his pace, and the inevitable
result was that he attracted the particu-
lar attention of the people he met His
hat had fallen off his coat, which was
flying open, disclosed his evening dress.
In his hand he still held the hilt of the
dagger, while his drawn, white face be-
trayed the mental agony he was under.
going. Even in Mayfair at that late
hour of the night such figure rushing
along the street could hardly escape ex-
citing interest. Who first started the
chase is immaterial-probably some
loafer of the pavement-but very soon
a crowd of respectable dimensions fol-
lowed upon his heels with cries Of
"Stop. thief"
Their shouts at first fell upon deaf ears,
but finally, as they gained upon him,
Fenton became aware of his pursuers.
He now seems to have remembered the
remnant Of the dagger which he still
carried, and he tried to get rid of it.
Seeing wall at his side, he hurled the
hilt over the coping, hoping to lose is

and it fell at the feet of his foremost
pursuer. who stopped down TO see what
il was. This put a moments pause into
the pursuit, and that moment gave Fen
ton his chance. Ho fled as il the furies
of hell were after him--as luck would
have IL ran iIto no one-and after end
less doubling and redoubling at length
found himself in Oxford street hatless,
breathless, quivering with excitement,
but the moment safe from pursuit. See
ing an omnibus passing by, he jumped
upon it without noting or caring for its
destination. There was barely room for
him on the footboard, and his neighbor
strongly objected to being crushed.
"If was you, guvn'r, said he, 81
should wait fer the next un. Ten ter
one it'll bring your bloomin tile along
with IL.
Only then was Fenton aware that his
hat was missing. If he wished to escape
notice, il was evident he must get hold
of another. and that at once, SO he i'm
mediately entered into negotiations with
the speaker.
"Do you think I'm a-goin to git a

world OF my arrest. The news woulu
carry CONSERVATION to the hearts Of my
relatives, and my friends would be
sghast at the tidings. Some there were
who would be ready to believe the
worst, but there were others knew
who could not doubt my innocence. One
dear heart would bleed for me. That
such an event should happen at all was
bad enough, but that 1t should occur OH
the night when world Of bliss had
seemingly opened for us both was hor-
rible indeed. And the awfulness lay in
the fact that my innocence could alone
be proved by evidence of George Fen
tons guilt.
George Fenton murderer The
thought was terrible. What in heavens
name could have impelled him to such
a deed of blaokness? And who was the
woman? Stop! OF course it must be.
Why had not guessed it before? She
was in all probability the one who had
caused so much heartburnipg in the Fen
ton family. The unfortunate fellow had
fallen in love with girl much below
him in station-one who was, in fact, in
domestic service. His infatuation had
been discovered at home, but all the
protests and entreaties of his family had
failed TO induce him to take sane view
Of matters. He loved her and would not
give her up. Then why had he murder.
ed her? Indeed what grounds had for
thinking this was the woman? My
thoughts were in hopeless tumble.
n - a
perate confusion, and felt as il were
going mad. At last, and not too soon,
relief came. AS the dawn was breaking
nature could no longer hold out under
the strain. and sank ON the coarse mat
tress in fitful sleep.
The first to greet me i'm the morning
was Butterton. He had hurried To me
directly he had read the news in the
papers, and before Lay letter had reached
him. A few words were enough to ex-
plain my position to him, and he left
me to do what he could to procure my
release.
The police had been active vernight.
The result of their inquiries at De We're
Gardens bore out my statement; but,
above ALL traces of the murderer We're
not wanting. 1t appears that the un-
happy man only left me TO be pursued.
He tried to get rid of the broken hilt,
but it was picked up on the pavement.
He managed to outdistance his pursuers;
he was heard of afterward IN Oxford
street, and there, for the Donce, the
trace was lost. These incidents were
circumstantial evidence of my inno-
cence. Indeed all against me was tho
word of questionable character who
had disappeared. The testimony of my
old chief, Admiral Yeo, and the other
influential friends who hurried to my
call was hardly necessary to complete
the evidence in my favor.
So before noon left the station free
man, but returned to my hotel with
the terrible consciousness that the MUIR
derer of this as yet unknown woman
was George Fenton, the brother of the
girl who, only few hours before, had
promised to be my wife.
