hope is expressed that a team will be formed under some arrangement that will permit 1t to keep even finan- cially. though it fail to prove a money maker
 Frank IT. Cordier said Monday that the c. A. c. was out of it entirely, as far as baseball teams are concerned, for 1910. The club is willing to let someone else have a fling at running a team; and arrangements can proba- bly be made for taking over such of their players and equipment as may be required.
 Unless Putnam organizes a team, there must be a change in the league circuit, some new town coming in to replace this city.

The chief shook his head.

Mr.. Grimm, land the moment he is
known to us everything becomes plain

Il expected a denial, but she was
quite frank about 1t. And ! had no in
tention whatever of placing her under
arrest. I knew someone was in the
adjoining room because of a slight
noise in there, and I knew she knew it.
She raised her voice a little, obviously
for tho benefit of whoever was there.
From that point everything ! said and
did was to compel that person, Who
ever it was, to show himself"
His chief nodded, understandingly.
Mr.. Grimm was silent for a little, then
went on:
"The last possibility in my mind at
that moment" he confessed, was that
the person in there was the man who
shot Senior Alvarez. Frankly ! had half
an idea that-that it might be the
prince in person" Suddenly his mood
changed: "And now our lady of nys-

A man came forward and kissed her
"a thin, little man of undetermined

cotton waste. His face was pale with
the pallor of one who knows little out
door life, his eyes deep-set and a-glitter
with some feverish inward fire. and the
thin lips were pressed together in a
sharp line. Behind him was a long
bench on which were scattered tools
Of various sorts, Enthusiastically shaped
chemical apparatus, two or three cleo
trio batteries todd sizes, and ranged
along one end OF it, in a row, were a
score or more metal spheroids, a shade
larger than a one-pound shell. From

Italian, "a single light will appear at
the apex of the capitol dome in Wash

Eyes, yes!" he exclaimed. The fever

"If there is a fog. of course o will

He was silent a moment, his hands
working n~ervously. Then, with an
effort: "And his ~highness?"

eyes grew misty, thoughtful for a mo-
ment, then cleared again. He is SAFE"

"By the way, what was in that sealed
packet that was taken from Senior AL
varez?' Campbell inquired c~uriously.
ut had something to do with some
railroad franchises responded Mr..
Grimm as he rose. 81 sealed it again
and returned it to the senior. Evidently
II was not what Signor Petrozjnni ex-
pected to fnd-in fact, he admitted 1T
wasn't what he was looking for"
For a little while the two men gazed
thoughtfully. each into the eyes of the
other, then Mr.. Grimm entered his pri-
yate office, where he sat for an hour
with his immaculate boots on his desk,
thinking. A world war-he had been
thrust forward by his government to
prevent it-subtle blue-gray eyes-his

At about the me he rose to go
out. Miss Thorne, closely yelled, left
the Venezuelan legation and walked
| rapidly down the street to a corner,
where, without a word, she entered a
waiting automobile. The wheels spun
and the car leaped forward. For a
mile or more it wound aimlessly in and
out, occasionally bisecting it's W
path: finally Miss Thorne leaned for
ward and touched the chauffeur on the
arm.
Now" she said.
The car Strengthened out into a street
of stately residences and scuttled along
until the placid bosom of the Potomac
came into view; beside that for a few
minutes, then over the bridge to the
Virginia side, in the dilapidated little
city of Alexandria. The car did not
slacken its speed, but wound in and
out through dingy streets, past tumble-
down negro huts, for half an hour be-
fore it came to a standstil in front of
an old brick mansion.
'This is number ninety-seven,' the
chauffeur announced.
Miss Thorne entered the house With
a key and was gone for ten minutes,
perhaps. She was r~eadjusting her veil
when she came out and stepped into
the car silently. Again it moved for
ward, on to the end of the dingy
street, and finally into the open coun-
try. Three. four five miles. perhaps,

small veranda had crumbled away
from age and neglect. A narrow path,
strewn with pine needles, led tortu-
ously up to the door. In the rear of
the house, rising from an old barn. a
thin pole with a. ~cup-like attachment
at the apex, thrust its point into the
open above the dense, odorous pines.
1t appeared to be a wireless mast. Miss

the long table and curiously lifted one
of the s%pheroids. 1t was a sinister
