CHAPTER Xxx.
THE LEAD-LINED VAT.

Sprague seated himself upon the
long pine box; and Sturgis, dropping
into the only chair, began his narrative.
/ As he talked, he carelessly whitfield
the cover of the wooden box with lie
knife which he still held in his hand,
! He began with an account of his in
/ vestigation at the knickcrbOcker bank.
( and explained the result of his observa-
tons and differences down to the time
/ of his visit, to Murdock's house, omit
ting, however, TO mention any of the
names of the actors in the reconstruct,
ed drama.
$50 you see" he concluded, 1--WE have
established the identity of the body
in the cab, and of the young man who
disappeared after the cab was upset.
But one of the most salient features
of the case, from the start, was the
fact that neither of these two men
had derived much, if any, pccuniary
profit from his crime. The boCkkeep-
er, as we have seen, was mere cats
paw in the control of the accountant,
and his posthumous confession has
given us the explanation of the power
exerted over him by his accomplice.
1t was not SO easy to establish the
motive which controlled the actions of
the accountant, who was himself only
q tool in the hands of higher intelli
gence. The deus eX machina of this
crime is man of genius who has hardly
M ba Dt nj hhf
whose traces | have found at every
turn. He was the brains of the whole
scheme; the other men in his hands
were mere puppets. Through the nc
countant. this master spirit managed
the bookkeeper; and the accountant
himself was controlled by him more
directly, but no less surely. II he Aeld
the former through his fear of expo
sure and consequent ruin, he influenced
the latter through even more potent
motives. He is the father of beauti
full girl, whom he did not scruple to
use as decoy. The price agreed upon
for the accountants assistance was the
hand of this daughter. for whom the
young man had doubtless conceived u
passionate love. Whether or not the
leader would have had the power to
carry out his part of the contract mat
tiers little; for it is highly probable that
he never had the slightest intention of
so doing. He evidently realized very
early in the game that the bookkeeper
could not long escape the clutches Of
the law. But as he had taken every
precaution to prevent him from know
ing anything of his very existence, the
fate of the unfortunate bookkeeper
would have mattered little to this
heartless villain, had not the probable
ity remained that, when brought to
bay, the bookkeeper would denounce
the accountants connection with the

know very little about him, only that
he is one of my disappointed rivals"
And he thereupon related to the re-
porter what he knew of Chathams
suit.
Sturgis listened with deep attention
to his friends narrative, and Illuminated
in silence long after the artist had
ceased speaking.
At last he started up with sudden
exclamation, and, walking over to the
side of the tank, he looked into the
depths of its oily contents. as if fas-
cinated by some horrible thing he saw
there.
Sprague came and stood beside him
and gazed curiously into the yiscous
liquid. There was nothing there that
he could see.
What is it? ?" he asked.
Without replying. Sturgis took from
his pocket bone-handled knife and
carefully dipped one end of the handle
into the fluid in the leaden tank. At
once the liquid began to seethe and
boil, giving out dark, pungent fumes.
Il thought So" muttercd the re-
porter, under his breath; that man is

Sturgis made no reply. His eyes
were wandering about the room, as If
in search of something.
Hand me n couple of those long
glass tubes from that shelf yonder,"
be said, earnestly.
The artist complied with the request.
Dipping these tubes into the oily
liquid, Sturgis. after considerable diff

small dark object which lay at the bot
tom of the tank. With infinite precau-
tion he brought it to the surface. 1t
had the appearance of tiattened lead
en- bullet.
What is it?" inquired Sprague.
'Sit down." answered Sturgis, in Il
low, tense voice. Il have just found
the last link which completes my chain
of evidence; | am now prepared to tell
you such story as you will scarcely
credit, even with the absolute proofs
before your eyes"
