CHAPTER VIII.
MR.. BARNES AT WORK


When young Mora left the room SO
suddenly, Mr.. Barnes, before asking
for Mr.. Mitchel's opinion had hurried
to the window and had so placed him
self behind the curtains that he com.
manded view Of the street, though
himself well screened from view. This
prccaution was we'll taken, for he saw
Mora closely examine the window be-
fore jumping into his cab, which await
ed. AS the vehicle was driven away lie
asked his question, but he continued to
gaze into the street until In n few
moments another cab turned the cor.
ner and went In the same direction ms
the first. BY this time Mr.. Mitchell had
replied, and Mr.. Barnes found time to
answer:
"You wish to take walk alone?
That means you do not desire my
companionship. Well. that Is satisfac.
tory, for l believe can do what must
be done now with more facility if |.
too, am alone"
He paused as, though expecting Mr..
Mitchell to speak, but that gentleman
could not have been curious to know
what the detective contemplated, for
he remained silent. Mr.. Barnes there.
fore ut once took his leave.
In the street he stood still q moment.
looking after the two cabs. which were
still In sight. He then walked rapid.
ly In the opposite direction for q cou-
pie OF blocks. when he turned and bur.
ried to the nearest station Of the ele-
waited railroad. Twenty minutes later
he was standing In the doorway near
ly opposite to the Mora mansion. Here
he waited so long that. patient detect.
I've though he was. he began to be
restive and would come from his hid.
Ing place. gaze quickly up and down
the street and then hurry back to his
retreat between the inner and outer
doors.
At last tie sound Of wheels satisfied
him. and he slipped behind a door. be-
Ing thus completely hidden. though
through the crevice he could still oh.
serve the Mora dwelling.
The cab drove up, and young Mora
allghted. He paid his fare, and then
he did somewhat strange thing. He
looked up and down the street until
his cab had turned into the avenue and
disappeared. Then he went up his
stoop and hid behind the outer door
of his own house, exactly as Mr..
Barnes was hiding opposite. The de.
tective wondered what this maneuver
might mean, but he soon discovered.
Two or three minutes had elapsed
when a man slowly passed who looked
sharply into the Mora house. In.
stantly young Mora darted forth and
seized him, at the same time touching
the electric button which summoned
his butler. Mr.. Barnes could make
out by his gesticulation that tho new.
conner was protesting, but Mora held
him firmly, giving some orders to his
servant whieh sent that worthy hurry.

Southern railway this evening one man
was killed and two otherp were injured.
The engineer OF yard engine, Quillen.
was ordered to follow to Kempsville the
for Virginia Beach at 3:15 o'clock and
bring back q work train. A few miles out
he met the fast train which left Virginia
Beach at 4:30 o'clock. coming toward Nor
folk at forty-llve miles an hour.
He reversed his engine when he saw that
collision was imminent and jumped, re-
ceiving slight injuries. His fireman,
William Sawyer. was upon the tender and
as the engine was going out backward was
struck by the passenger engine. Both legs
were cut off and he died in short time
Engineer Purcell. of the passenger,
jumped and was badly hurt. His fireman
was not seriously injured. No passenger
was hurt.
After the collision the freight engine.
which had previously been reversed. or
rather the wreck Of 1t, since the tender,
tank, cab. and other portions were miss
Ing, started for Norfolk. The wild wreck.
with throttle wide open. came into the
depot at a terrific rate Of speed. 1t passed
passenger train on another track just
about to pull out. on which were several
hundred passengers, and crashed into an
empty coach. This 1t knocked into spllint-
ers, then stopped, doing no more damage.

SOuthwesterly Winds, However
Promise to Temper the Heat.

Promise to Temper the Heat.
A continuance of high temperature and
excessive humidity prevailed yesterday, but
the heat was tempered by brisk southeriy
and southwesterly winds.
At noon the thermometer registered S3
degrees Fahrenheit by the official ther-
mometer of the Weather Bureau, and rose
steadily for several hours At O'Clock in
the afternoon 81 degrees was recorded, and
at o'clock the maximum temperature of
SO degrees was reached. After that hour
the mercury gradually receded. AT 6 p. m.
it had fallen to the Si-degree mark and
continued to drop as nightfall brought re-
lief from the rays of the sun.
Humidity started in yesterday morning
with the same persistency which has mark
ed its efforts during the present hot spell.
This cooler weather which had been prog
rosticated for Thursday by the forecast of
the Weather Bureau failed to appear, and
no further prospect OF moderation in The
excessive heat is held out in the forecast
for today Fresh southerly winds, how.
ever. it is anticipated, will make the heat
of the day sufferable.

NEW YORK. June 2S.-Abram Fischer.
A. D. Wolmarans, and C. r. Vessels, tho
Boer delegates to the United States. sailed
today for Hayre aboard the French Line
steamship LAquitaine. They were accom-
panied to the pier by few sympathizers
with the Boer cause. Other passengers
aboard the ship were W. Bourke Cochran
and Montagu White.
The departure was very quiet affair.
No crowd was on hand to cheer and wave
flags. On their arrival on board L'Aqul-
taine they went at once to the main
saloon, where they held an informal recep-
ton. They received number of handsome
floral gifts. One piece was large horn OF
plenty in white and red roses, surmountei
by the flags of the South African Republic.
I'VE are indeed gratified with the recep-
tion which has been given US In this couu-
try" said Envoy Fischer. I'VE feel that
the people of the American Republic SYM
pathize with US in the struggle We are max
ing in South Africa. Everywhere We have
received expressions of that sympathy. The
Beers are still fighting for their independ-
ence and we are still hopeful of the re-
suit"
