but an examination of the books will
no doubt reveal this; and should adj
wise you, Mr.. Dunlap, to lose no time
in having it made"
But" argued Dunlap, anxiously, 81

week."
Yes; by Arbogast's accomplice."
What, Chatham his accomplish"
exclaimed Dunlap, family.
"Chatham was in the plot beyond a
doubt" answered Sturgis. $50 long as
no one had access to the books except
his accomplice Chatham, of course Ar
bogast felt secure. But when, yester-
day, the announcement was made that
after the beginning of the new year his
books would pass to the custody of an
other man, he saw that the game was
up"
The men had returned to the presi-
ident's office.
"Those are his very words" contin-
ued the reporter; "thosehe telegraphed
to Chatham yesterday, as you will see
if you hold before that mirror this
sheet of blotting paper which I found
on Arbogast's desk"
Dunlap, with an unsteady hand, took
the plotting paper; and, holding it be-
fore the glass, studied the reflection
intently.
what do you make out?" asked
Sturgis.
Nothing whatever" replied the
banker, promptly.
'What?" exclaimed the reporter;
do you mean to say that you do not
distinguish any marks on the plotting
paper?"
II mean to say that do not see any
thing to which can attach any SEM
blance of u meaning. The blotting pa
per has been used, and, of course,
there are ink marks upon it; but, as
far as can see, these are wholly dis
connected. They are entirely void of
sense to my eyes, at any rate"
Examine the blotter again careful
ly in this direction" said Sturgis,
drawing an imaginary line upon the

other marks which seem to cross these
lines. Now do you see anything?"
The banker examined the image in
the mirror for some time before reply
ing.
"If allow my Imagination to enter
into play, I can complete several iso-
lated letters"
"Nyill you dictate these while note
them here. Be careful to distinguish
between capital and lower-case letters.
Also separate the lines, and state
| whether letters come close together
or are separated by space"
Every WE'LL" agreed Dunlap, who
then proceeded to read off the letters
he saw in the reflection of the blotter

When he had finished, sturgis hand
ed him the paper, upon which were
Transcribed the letters he had dictated.

Government takes no step to secure

any revolution now, and by placing

HART TRIES TO AID BRABANT
Both Generals Find Strong Op-
position In Their Advance
to Mafekine. i
BRITISH HOLD DEwETsDORF

Aliwal North, April 24.-It is re-
ported that firing was heard between
zastron and Wepener. 1t is believed
that Generals Brabant and Hart are
in contact with the enemy. The Beers
are so numerous that it took them two
days to cross the Caledon river at Bas-
tard's Drift.
Maseru, Basutoland. April 24,-On
breaking up bivouack this morning
Generals Brabant and Hart discover
ed the Beers, who fell back towards
Wepener yesterday and had advanced
during the night several miles nearer
the Strauss farm, more favorable
position for resistance. Colonel Dal-
getty was severely attacked with six
guns this morning, probably with a
view of preventing him from reaching
the relief column. 1t seemed yester-
day that Dalgety had practically been
relieved, but the offensive attitude as
sumed by the Beers this morning
shows that this idea had been erro-
neous. General Hart is now a few
miles behind Brabant's division which
is waiting for the former to come up.
Thirteen British wounded were re
moved to Mafeking at midnight.
(Evening) Generals Brabant and
Hart covered only a short distance
today, and. finding strong force op-
posed to them bivouacked on the
ground they had occupied. Firing has
been desultory, casualties slight. The
British are edging up toward the Ba-
sutoland border. Persistent rumors
are in circulation that Commandant
Oliver, with force of 1900 men, is
preparing to attack General Hart's
rear. There is no sign of an advance
Of General Rumble from Dewetsdorp.
Lord Roberts has telegraphed the fol
lowing: Bloemfontein, April 25.-
Dewetsdorp was occupied by Cherm-
side. without opposition, at $50 o'clock
this morning.
London, April 25.-Indecisive action
and slow progress of Generals Hart
and Brabant are relatively unimpor-
tant, when compared with the pro-
gress of General French. 1t is evil
dent that Lord Roberts wishes not
only to defeat the Beers but pen them
in as at Paardeberg. To this end,
0,000 British troops are concentrat-
ing in the northern portion of the
Orange Free State. The success of
the important movement almost en-
tirely depends upon French. If he
can sweep down north with the rapidi-
ty and execution which he displayed
at Kimberley and Paardeberg, he will
put a girdle around the $4,000 Beers,
estimated to be in the southern part
of the Orange Free State.
London, 4:57 p. m.-The war office
received the following from Lord
Roberts: "Bloemfontein, April 25.-
