And at that psychological moment
two other guards appeared In the

McGIoin was out OF his chair now
gazing down into the yard with bull

in little beads on his forehead.

all about the murder and who are

quarters. What followed was merely
detail As soon as McGloin recovered
his self.posscssion he sat down and
confessed in detail the story Of the
murder of Louis Hanier.
1t appears that the four rowd'cs
had been "spotting" the shop OF the
French wine seller for many days.
They believed that he would have n
large sum of money in the house at
the close OF the holiday trade. and
they deliberately conceived the plan
Of robbing the old man. They knew
enough about their unlawful trade TO
get into the shop without difficulty.
They had been drinking. At any rate.
they made so much noise they reused
Hanier from his slumbers. He ap-
peared on the landing at the head Of
the stairway partly dressed. Nc
Gloin, who was at the foot OF the
stairs, instinctively reached for his
revolver, and pulling the trigger fired
at the defenseless shopkeeper. The
aim was only too true. The bullet en-
tered the heart OF Louis Hanier and
he rolled down the stairs a lifeless
lump of clay.
This, in substance, was the confess
sion as 1t was CLEANED from the lips
OF the murderer and his confederates.
His one cry to Inspector Byrnes was:
Save me! Save me! Do not let
them hang me-"
But the grim detective. who had

McGloin preserved stolid look. He
appeared to take little interest In the
recital, which, whatever else 1t might
seem, was engrossingly interesting.
Brynes realized that he had no or

devoid OF sentiment and apparently
was ignorant Of emotion OF any kind.
The inspector moved slowly and eau
tiously. He had his part down to per

must not show signs of impatience.
He sat down at his desk and nodded
pleasantly and waved his hand in the
direction OF the vacant chair. Nc
Gloin accepted the Invitation and sat
down facing the courtyard.

spector in his most purring tones.

Il don't know anything about it,"
was the dogged reply.
The inspector arched his eyebrows
in surprise.
Don't know anything about it?" he
echoed.
No
You're New Yorker"
Yes"
Have you been out of the city
lately?"
The prisoner darted a quick look OF
suspicion at his questioner. Was this
a trick? He answered definatly:

for over n year. I don't have TO go
out OF the city
"Of course not" said the Inspector
soothingly.

he resumed after a pause.

NLE0 IN the hailway VI his
home. The bullet of n
3s.caliber revolver was discovered in
the mans heart.
He had been murdered.
The French wine merchant had
been doing a big holiday trade during
the week before his death. and he had
a large sum of money in his posses
sion. An examination of the prem
ises proved that the front door had
been jimmied. Hanier had been muir
dered for his money.
And that may was Inspector Byrnes.
Report after report had been made
and the murderer Of Louis Hanier
threatened to slip away beneath an
avalanche OF red tape. Inspector
Byrnes called for all the papers In the
case. and seated at his desk In Null
berry street he pondered over the
case as n skilled player would study
a problem in chess.
His conclusion was that the crime
had been committed by a professional
burglar. The first order was that
every pawnshop in the limits Of Man
haitian island should be visited to dis
cover whether 3S-caliber revolver
had been pledged at any time within
4s hours after the murder. Byrnes
argued that while n novice might con-
ceal the weapon a professional would
cold-bloodedly attempt to realize
some money out of 1t.
He was right.
A money lender was found who had
parted with several dollars in return
for the murderous weapon. The next
step was to bring the pawnbroker to
headquarters and have him look over
the thousands Of portraits in the
rogues' gallery for the purpose Of dis
covering the picture Of his erstwhile
customer. Page after page was turned
over and photograph after photograph
was exhibited, and 1t began to look as
II tho quest were to be fruitless. Just
at this point the pawnbroker suddenly
exclaimed:
There's the mani"
The picture he pointed out was that
Of Michael McGloin, a parsonage well
known to the police.
The third step In the plan was to
locate NcGloin. That was compara-
lively easy. He was found in the
haunts Of crime, and for many weary
weeks he was shadowed. Every move
he made was reported; every word he
uttered was recorded. 1t required in.
finite patience, but the espionage re-
suited in the discovery that on the
night Of the murder McGloin had been
out on a spree in the company Of three
of his pals. by name Thomas Moran,
Frederick Banfield and Robert Morri-
sey.
The tAse had now reached a stage
where caution was Of the utmost i'm
portat A single false move might
ruin everything. 1t would be easy
enough to arrest the men on suspi-
ciou. but would such a step serve the
cause Of Justice? Inspector Byrnes
evidently thought not, for he post
poned that act. Professionals. who
did not stop at murder, were adopts in
the making Of alibis, and the detective
did not propose to be fooled by such
. device.
He sent a woman to live with Nc
Gloin. and he supplied her literally
With money. Indeed, there were times
when the murderer wore the clothes
Of the inspector. With Byrnes the end
justified the means. McGloin did not
confess to the woman-he was not
the confessing kind. But she lived
with him for over a month. and dur
