kr1esssd culiarly shaped vessel lay
I&gE&Sj moored. 1t was a substantial
enough vessel for the purposes for
which it was used-to convey mer-
chandise from one port III the Caspian
OF its rivers to another. 1t had just
brought a cargo of goods to the baZaars
at the fair. 1t had a high curved
PROV, with a strange looking carving
as a figurehead. 1t was broad amid
ships, and at the stern a high deck GOV
cred the cabin accommodations. 1t
was manned by dusky sailors, and the
captain was Hassan. a Turk from Con-
stantinople.
Hassan was a nan well along in
years and had taken to the Caspian wa
ter trade as the best means of making
sufficient wealth with which to settle
down in his home at STEAMBOAT and en-
joy himself. Unfortunately for Hassan
the trade had not proved as profitable
as he expected, because the Russian
government had given rights and priv
ileges-concessions they called them
to a German company to run a line Of
steamboats, from port to port. Hassan's
teld-or sea-of activity was therefore
limited to those occasions when the fair
at Tifis or a sudden rush Of goods to
Astrakhan made the usual boats unable
to accommodate the increase of trade.
A caravan from Trebizond had
brought to one of the Caspian ports a
vast amount of goods for the fair, and
Hassan had succeeded in getting some
of the overflow for his vessel. Having
delivered these goods to the Persian,
Russian, Jewish and Turkish mer-
chants to whom they were assigned,
he lay at the wharf trying to pick up a
return cargo.
The night of the day on which Hafiz
Effendi and Milk, from Bokhara, had
met, Hassan strolled on the upper deck
at the stern of his vessel smoking a
cigarette. He was disconsolate and
was seriously contemplating leaving
the river and getting back to the Cas-
plan, for his chances of obtaining a
cargo for any Caspian port seemed
slight.
Suddenly a figure clad in a long
black coat, bent and bearded like the
usual trading Jew at the fair, stole
