better things left than that. 1t is my
hope, however, that no proofs can be

question is definitely settled my for

This is what wanted to say to you,
why wanted to know who your friend

bottom of things? We are both con-
cerned. The result will mean all or
nothing to you and me. All, believe
me, but you are favored mortal. The
friendship of the one and the love of
the other! No, do not look angry. With
all my sins, it cannot be said that

love the Princess Hildegarde. l offer
you an equal chance to win her. Is
not that remarkably good nature? Till
the affair is settled my marriage is
postponed. Now, to our personal at

you all my honest hatred. am at
your service after, of course, the re-

all wrongs but that. I warn you that
the affair will not be conducted after

MYSTERY Of THE BAGGAGE
REFORMER AHLO THINKS SPIES
ARE AFTER Hum.
Says His Trunks Were Mysteriously
Searched While in Transit From New
York to San Francisco.

SAN FRANCISCO, September S.
Some one, supposedly employed by the
secret service bureau of the Chinese
Government, has actually opened and
thoroughly searched fifteen trunks in
transit between Chicago and San Fran
cisco and left no clew.
These trunks belong to A. L. Ahlo, a
stylishly dressed Anglicized Chinese,
who arrived here Augnust Goth from
England, where he was publicly known
as prominent advocate of the Chinese
reform porty.
Ahlo was born in Honolulu twenty
FIVE years ago. His mother was a
Hawaiian. Only last June Ahlo was
graduated from Cambridge University
in England. Four years previously he
had completed his course at Oahu Col
lege in Honolulu. During his collie
giate life at the old British educa-
tional center he wooed and welded a
young English woman, a granddaughter
of one of the great peers of England.
The proud old Anglo-SaXon family had
objected to the union, but the young
couple married for love.
Upon his graduation from Cambridge
it was thought young Ahlo would be
given some important position in the
Chinese Embassy at London. But ms
plainly avowed Endorsement of the re-
form party naturally prevented any
such preferment from the chiefs of the
very administration against which he
ives enlisted. So Ahlo started for Amer
lea, on his way to his old home in Ho-
nolulu.
At New York the Ahlos saw their
trunks perfunctorily and politely in
spected by the United States customs
officials. Ahlo decided to be relieved OF
three of these pieces of baggage and
checked them through to San Francisco,
UP to thsA time these three pieces,
which had been frequently opened since
the departure from New York, were in
good order.
The Ahlos arrived in San Francisco
week ago last Monday afternoon
and went directly to the California
Hotel. They complained at the delay
in getting their baggage, but were
told that it probably would be ready
for them about s o'clock in the even
ing. That was August 18th. Not I'LL
noon of August 9th did the hotel eX-
pressman receive the Ahlo baggage
from E. B. Carson, general baggage
agent of the Southern Pacific COM
pany in the Ferry buildiag. The trunks
were then taken directly to The hoIel
and soon after were all delivered ~
the Ahlos apartments On the hftn
floor Then the Ahlos began searching
for their keys, but failed to find them
They examined some of the trunks
and found them already unlocked.
Several had locks broken. During tile
afternoon postal card arrived with
the information that if Ahlo would
cell at room in the Ferry building,
the office of the Pullman Car Com
pany, he could get his keys. He called
and was handed the bunch without
explanation or ceremony. Some of the
KEYS were of Chinese pattern and were
absolutely necessary to the unfaste l.
ing of the peculiar locks of several OF
the trunks.
