at was thrown into this basket by Mr..
Strong about a month ago Can you
help us?"
s.. don't know, sir. have been emp
tyin' everythin' of that kind in the cell
lar. l keep all the papers in one barrel
and all the rags in another, and a junk
shop man comes every now and then"
"And gives you little something for
keeping the stuff for him. interrupted
Hendricks.
Yes, sir" the servant nodded.
HAS he been here Iately?"
"Just a day or so before the murder,
sir l remember"
Gould you take Mr.. WILDLY and my
self to his place." said the detective:
eve might be in time to keep our bit of
evidence from being made up into new
paper"
"Yes, sir, without any trouble. His
shop is on First street, under the bridge
1t is pretty tough place, sir, but we
can take the cars and get down quick
enough"

tance," jcstcd Miss Delmar.
81 didn't quite think you would care
10 soil your skirts in ragman's shop"
replied the detective. But as soon as
we get a clew, Mr.. WILDLY may bring
The news to you. We'd better be going,
too"
Hendricks and Matthews started out
at once. WILDLY fingered in the draw
ing-room with Miss Delmar.
II you have the time, you might stay
here until we return" said WILDLY.
q am sure we shan't be long"
"Tllwaitan hour, anyway" the young
LADY promised 81 am dying to know
if you accomplish anything. But run
on; they are waiting for you, and here
comes the car"
In ten minutes the three men had
reached the bridge spanning the murky
river and were entering the shop indi-
{ Gated by Matthews.
4 we must tell him exactly what we
want" Hendricks whispered to WILDLY
at the door. "He hasn't q very honest
face, and if he thinks we have lost some
thing of intrinsic value he may tell us a
lot of lies. Usually they do all they can
to aid a detective"
"Ah, / see" answered WILDLY. 81
should have blundered there if l had
been alone"
The dealer, a little jew, with a very
crafty face, came from behind a coun
ter piled up high with sacks of rags and
paper
what can do for you, gentlemen? p
he asked.
In q few words Hendricks explained
what they were searching for.
"Ah! and you want TO catch him, oh
Well, 1 hope you can" said the jew
81 think / know the bags I got from
lere. They are up in the loft. vii
throw them down, and you can lool
through them here
"You arc very good, said Hendricks
"thsts exactly what we want"
The jew ran up a ladder through
hole in the ceiling, and in o momen
three sacks filed with old paper tum
bled down at their feet
Hendyicks pointed to a clean place o.
the floor, ana said 20 Matthews; "Shak
them ont"
Matthews emptied one Of the bags q
heap, and WILDLY bent over It,
"No doubt about the stuff being fror
eur house" he said. "Here Is q note I'd

What are you going to do now?"
asked Welsh, completely crestfallen.

Paris, Nov. 22.-The Spanish and

the entire Philippine archipelago, and
for a treaty cession of the islands the
Americans rendered to Spain $2O,OOO,-
600.
1t is further declared that it is the
purpose of the United States to main
tain the Philippine islands as an
''open door, to the worlds commerce.
On the terms named the United
States proposes a mutual relinquish-
ment of all claims for indemnity, ma
tional or personal, subsequent to the
outbreak of the last Cuban insurrec-

number of very prominent Filipinos.
They came direct from the city of
Manila, and are en- route to Washing.
ton. The party is composed of the
following: Claudio Reina, Pedro y
Rungue, Juana Mantella, Estehania Y
Rungue, Amalia Mellizo and Messrs
Argue and Miguel Corte.
The object of the visit to tie United
States just now is to present large
claims for damages before the presi.
dent and cabinet. The damages, the
claimants assert, were incurred owing
to the recent war with Spain and an
attempt will be made to show that val
liable property owned by the Filipinos
was destroyed by the american troops.
1t is not definitely known just how
large an indemnity will be asked for
by the Filipinos, but it is believed the
aggregate claims will reach several
hundred thousand dollars.
