around the visitor.
Before he had taken step toward the
guilty pair, Truxton snatched revolver
from his desk and fired at him point
blank. He side-stepped so quickly that
he wasn't hit Truxton then separated
himself from the woman and backed
quickly into a corner behind the desk,
thus protecting his body to the height
of his chest.
Watson then drew his pisto1-he car
ried it when going about with a lot of
money to pay off. Before he could fire
Truxton fired again and hit him in the
left shoulder. He reeled, but fired, and
Truxton fell like an OK
After telling me all this, Watson threw
off his coat, and sure enough there was
an ugly wound in his shoulder The
bullet was found fattened against a
bone, and when extracted proved to be
the missing one. Watson's plain story
reversed all our theories and demon
strated the value of few simple facts.
This settled the question as to the
murder, but threw no light upon the
stealing of the money. | knew perfectly
we'll that Casey had stolen it from the
desk. Watson saw it there, had left it
there when he went out, and his wife had
run out before him. There was no proof
against Casey, however. There was time
enough for dozen men to enter and leave
the place before he arrived there and
reported the murder. His suspicion of
Watson was natural enough, because he
knew all about the bad feeling between
the two men and its cause.
And now came one of the special
devices or tricks of the Third Degree,
the special device or trick which must be
devised to meet the conditions of the
special case and which entirely depends
upon the ingenuity of the detective
We found out all about Casey's mode
of life, his habits, the places he frequented
when off duty, and his friends. This told
lis nothing, that is nothing directly. l
sent for the paying teller who cashed the
check, to find out in what money it
was paid. There was one five hundred
dollar bill, some hundreds, the rest small.
The five hundred-dollar bill helped us.
1t was not a new bill, the paying teller
remembered. 1t had a peculiar rusty
mark, such as would come from wrapping
II around d wet rusty nail, running nall
way down the white and yellow back
on one side. asked the teller to prepare
me similar five hundred-dollar bill,
using a small paint-brush, as nearly as
possible like the one described. 1t was
merely a venture but it was the only
opening had been able to find.
| knew perfectly well that if Casey had
stolen the money he had noticed the
mark on the bill | knew that he would
try to get rid of it in someway that dehed
tracing. He was a clever man, and he
would know that the best and safest way
was through bookmaker. All bills
that can in anyway be identified go to
bookmakers, because their money goes
in and out and to and fro so rapidly and
through so many hands that it defes
tracing. / sent for Casey.
Casey" said l, in the same friendly
way, do you ever bet on the races?"
He hesitated. | had him. He dared
not admit or deny.
Il might" said he.
You won a hundred and forty dollars

now What are you getting att" he
asked
Did you or didn't your" l asked.
How do l know" he said angrily.
Il always carry a roll. I'm playin'
poker sometimes, amt l? l change
money for a friend, don't L? Why
shouldn't l have a five hundred-dollar
bill?"
But this particular five hundred-dol-
lar bill" l said slowly, looking him
straight in the eye.
What bill?"
THE one you gave Radford."
And what of it?"
1T had a mark on it.
That's lie!" said he at had no
mark on it.
He was gone, but he did not notice it.
He had admitted that he gave Radford
five hundred-dollar bill | could not
have proved this | only surrnised it
from his winning big bet on Carrie NJ
and setting up the drinks. This we had
established, and we knew that he usually
bet with Radford Radford we had not
yet examined, for fear of arousing sus-
picion. BookmakerS will always pro-
teCt tne1r cl1entS.
do you say that the five hundred
dollar bill you paid to Radford had no
mark on it,"
Il do" said he. 1T was like any
other bill. If Radford says different,
he's liar
I'm sorry, Casey" said l. but he is
not a liar, I've got the bill. He swears
to it, and the payingteller swears he
paid it to Truxton. It's up to you now,
said l. Do the right thing and you'll
get light sentence. Fight us, and it's
ten to fifteen years.
He chewed it over for sometime
head and he broke out now and then into
smothered curses He was slowly bring
ing himself to accept the situation.
Finally he said: Will you help me?"
Yes"
Before God?"
Yes"
And did. He pleaded guilty and got
a comparatively light sentence | had
not even needed to show the painted bill
This is the much discussed, much
criticized Third Degree" Never has it
done injustice to the innocent. The an
tagonism between the criminals attack
upon society and the defense always
finds the latter at a disadvantage; and,
as a representative of the defense,
always felt entirely justified in resorting
to any artifice that would defeat criminal
ingenuity-the product in many instances
of months of planning and hard thinking.
| never did the same thing twice;
therefore my undertakings in the quest
of facts would have to be specifically
named for each crime, unless the one
term be applied to all. A sincere,
honest detective never will invent |
ideas to meet emergencies-the old |
belief that detective can sit down in
a corner and dream out solution to
complicated and mysterious case of
crime is nonsense. Too often, one has to |
rely upon getting evidence from the one
person in all this world who least wants |
to give 1.-THE criminal himself. This is
where the Third Degree is prominent
ly valuable
The theory of the detectives art is that |
