He began calling Justify up the mar

Servian had gone down like felled OK,

over him into the hall past the rear

Armitage had assumed the existence
of front stairway, and now that he
was launched upon an unexpected adj
venture he was in humor to prolong
1t for moment even at further risk.
He crept along a dark passage to the
front door, found and turned the key
to provide himself with a ready exit,
then, as he heard the men from above
stumble over the PROSTATE Servian, he
bounded up the front stairway, gained
the second floor, then the third and
readily found by its light the room
that he had observed earlier from the
outside.
Below there was smothered confu-
sion and the cracking of matches as
Durand and Chauvenet sought to grasp
the unexpected situation that confront
ed them. The big servant, Armitage
knew, would hardly be able to clear
matters for them at once. and he hur-
riedly turned over the packets of pa
pers that lay on the table. They were
claims of one kind and another against
several South and Central American
republics. chiefly for naval and mill
tary supplies, and he merely noted
their general character. They were, on
the face of 1t, certified accounts in the
usual manner of business. On the back
of each had been printed with a rubber
stamp the words: vienna, Paris.

Armitage snatched up the coat which
Chauvenet had so carefully placed on
the back OF his chair, ran his hands
through the pockets. found them
empty. then gathered the garment
tightly in his hands. laughed little to
