CHAPTER XIV
Continued

Tommy stood up and gazed
shamefacedly at the older boy be
fore him.
Ned, l did not mean to- he
cried.
Sure" was the heroic answer
"How did you know there was a
circus up in the Officer"
Then Cakes turned to Martin
How much does the boy know
Martin? How much have you told
him.
1--WE have told him nothing, ex-
cept that he is wanted in connec-
ton with the Montgomery Stone
murder"
you have given no information
as to details?"
None"
81 bear witness to that, sir
spoke up Chief Thomas, addressing
the states attorney, "the boy has
heard nothing else; he has made
only one statement. His lawyer
here has been with him nearly all
the while, and his father has been
with him since We first found
him."
Good" cried Cakes, "and what
was his statement"
"He said he did not know the
murderer"
"Then Ned" said Cakes, address
ing the boy in his peculiar, endear-
ing way, you swiped few of
those cigarets before Montgomery
Stone was murdered. for of course
you were up there swiping cigarets,
weren't your" he laughed outright,
as he spoke, and Tommy heaved a
sigh of relief that the tall gentle
man though so little of the cigaret
side of the affair as to laugh over
1t.
Ned's lawyer spoke to the dis
trict attorney moment, then
nodded to the boy, saying, Tell
all about it; go ahead until l tell
you to stop"
Cakes turned sharply to the
speaker: THE boy is not under
suspicion, sir; he did not do the
murder. I can prove that"
The faces of both boys brighten
ed. Cakes was winning their con-
fidence; the story would be told
and told truthfully.
Ned shuffled moment uneasily
then seeing the handsome face OF
Cakes smiling invitingly, he blurt
ed out:
"Sure, I hooked those cigarets
Tommy over there put me onto the
racket; he said Mr.. Stone was
easy; he said the boys never got
caught; he said he got some al
the time. | was going home thai
morning and l just dropped in to
hook a few
Cakes walked over to Ned ant
handed him chair, good naturedly
motioning to the boy to be seated
while. without any apparent earn
estness, and in words devoid of &C
centuation, he asked:
Were you going directly home
Ned?"
The boy hesitated momentarily
striving to bring to his memory
the occurrences of that morning
NO" he finally said. Il was goins
to say goodbye to Tommy before
| left"
Tommy was up on his feet in al
instant, his eyes blazing, his whole
manner changed, fairly bristlins
with earnestnesS.
That's what | said. Tell 'em
Ned, tell 'em what for"
Ned hesitated, and all eyes con
centrated on the boy, but hi
answered not.
Cakes laid his hand on hi
shoulder. Don't be afraid, ole
fellow. You need not reveal you
society secrets; just tell why yol
wanted to say goodby to Tom"
81 wanted to give him a dagge
that he loaned me-"
The district attorney arose ant
leaning over the desk toward thu
boy, nodded approvingly. That's
right, Ned. Tom told about It.

fiend! You said the murderer stol,

fiend! You said the murderer stole
it, or got hold of it somehow"
There was murmur of acclaim
from those present.
The great detective was standing
calm and pale, looking at the dis
trict attorney. Next instant he bent
low over the boy and gently con-
tinued. "You saw the murderer,
Ned-now tell us what happened
what you did. Tell us as best you
can, all about it." The mans
every accent was calm, strong; the
boy felt himself in the presence of
a friend, a good mana fair play
sort of a fellow, and he Launched
into his story with anxiety to tell
all, guided now and then by a we'll
directed question from Cakes or
Troop or the district attorney.
Those present listened breath
lessly as he told how he had en-
tered the front Office by way of it's
back door, which he found ajar;
he saw buster in the hall; he be-
lieved the janitor had been clean
ing; he entered and looked about
cautiously, and placed the dagger
on the desk, because it was uncom-
Portable hidden under his jacket;
he went into the back office and
found table with pipe and some
cigarets upon it; he took some of
them, and put them in his pocket.
and feeling quite careless and see
ing the back door of the room open,
offering ready means of egress,
he lighted cigaret and started to
puff.
Suddenly somebody entered the
front Office through the front door
from the stairs leading to the
street He saw his tall figure and
his face, and recognized him as
Montgomery Stone.
The boy continued in short SEN
fences to tell how he remained
quiet, hoping that Montgomery
would go out so that he could go
into the room and get the dagger
and get away, but the man sat
down and began to talk to himself
about the fire. And then some
body else came in suddenly, and
called him by name, and there was
an argument; the latest arrival was
angry, and Montgomery seemed
terribly upset about something
They talked in very loud tones,
and he knew that the last man
was called Theodore. Cakes and
the district attorney brought out
that Ned did not catch a glimpse
