Indeed? All! well, of course, II Mr.
Sturgis wishes TO withdraw his bet"

said Sturgs; II will agree to solve your
problem within 80 days or to forfeit
my stakes; but l cannot undertake to
prove the truth on falsity OF any n
priori theory. l have no personal
knowledge of the matter as yet, and
therefore no theory"
quite So" observed Murdoch, IRON
ically. 81 had forgotten your scientific
methods. OF course, it may turn out

DR.. Thurston had met Sturgis' steady

CHAPTER II.
TIE, WAGER.

"What I mean to assert" said Ralph
Sturgis, with quiet conviction. lis that
every crime is its own Listorian that
all its minutcst detailSarc written in
circumstantial evidence as completely
IS an eyewitness could sec thcm-avr.
more fully and more truly than they
could be described by the criminal him
self"
The reporter was a man Of about 80,
whose regular features bore the I'M
nistallable stamp of INTEL gcncc and
1 refinement. In repoSe, they wore an
habitual expression of in respective
concentration, which might have led
n careless observer to class Ralph Stur-
yis in the category of aimess dream
Prs. But a single flash of the piercing
gray eyes generally suiIiccd to dispcl
my sIch impression; and told of keen
perception and underlying power. The
mouth was firm and kind The bearing
that of a gentleman and a man Of cdu-
cation.
But" objected the host, you surely
10 not mean to express belief in the
iurall'bility Of circumstantial evil
dcncc?"
"Why not?"
"l'ccausc YOU must know as well rs
anyone how misleading uncorrohoratcd
rircumstantial evidence is ! do not for
get what remarkable results you have
( often accomplished for The Daily lem
pest in detecting and following up
clcws to which the official detectives
were blind. But, frankly, were not
your conclusions usually the result Of
| lucky gucsscs, which would have re
/ manned comparatively useless as evil
| dcncc had they not been subsequently
proved correct by direct testimony"
| let me reply to your question by an
other, Sprague," answered Sturgs,
when YOU draw a check, does the pay
ing teller at the bank require the tes-
! timony of witnesses TO your signature
before admitting its genuineness?'
NO; of course not
"Prccisely. lie probably knows the
signature of Harvey NJ, Sprague, the
4 dcpositor, better than he does the
..
/ the evidence here is purely circum-
stantial. | know of at least one re-
cent instance in which the officials OF
New York bank placed their inn
plicit reliance upon circUmstantial
evidence OF this sort, in spite OF the
direct testimony of the depositor,
who was willing to acknowledge the
gcnuincncss of check to which his
name had been forged"
II suppose you refer to the Forsyth
case said Sprague; "but you must
remember that Col. Forsyth was
actuatcd by the desire to shield the
forgcr, who was his own scapegrace
SON"
THAT is just the point" replied
Sturgls; another witness will be
biased by his interests or prcjudiccs,
blinded by jealousy love or hatred,
or handicapped by overzcalousness,
stupidity, lack Of memory, or what
not tircumstantial evidence 10 al

"ln my opinion" piped the shrill voice
of an elderly man of clerical aspect,
Coincidence is the surcst detective,
after all"
"Conscicncc!" retortcd Murdoch,
calmly; "thc word is a euphcmism.
Man gives the name of conscience to
his fear of discovery and punishment.
There is no such thing as conscience in
the criminal who has absolute conf
dence in his power to escape detcc-
ton"
But where is the man who can have
that superb confidence in himscll?"
asked Sprague.
Ills name is probably legion" an
swcred Murdocll, quickly, "lle is the
author of every crime whose history
remains forever unWrittcn."
"And are these really so numerous. ?"
Let us see how the case stands in
one single class of crimc-sa for in
stance, murder. Whenever the Folu-
ton of sensational murder mystery
is effected by the detectives, or by their
allies, the gentlemen of the press like
our friend Mr.. Sturgis, we, the gullible
public, vociferously applaud the
achievements of these guardians OF
the public safety, and forthwith pro-
coed to award them a niche in the tenn
pie OF Fame. So far so good. But
what of tho dark mysteries which re-
main forever unsolycd? What of the
numerous crimes of which no one ever
even knows"
"Oh. come now. Doctor" laughed
Spraguc, isn't it rather paradoXical TO
base your argument on the assumption
of crimes of whose very existence YOU
admit you have no knowledge?'
Murdoch smiled grimly as he replied;
"Go to the morgue of any large city,
where the unrecognizcd dead are eN-
posed for Identification, Aside from the
morbid crowd which is drawn 20 such IA
place by uncanny curiosity, you will
find that each corpse is anNiously
scanned by numbers of people, each of
whom is seeking missing friend or
relative. At the most each body can
furnish the key to only one mystery
