"Oh, very WE'LL" he said with as
sumed Indifference.
Hotchkiss just then escaped from
Richey's grasp and crossed the room.

asked eagerly,

some contempt at mine.

Harrington about five years ago. She
was good girl, and | thought a lot
of her. But her father opposed the
marriage-he'd never liked me, and he
refused to make any sort of settle

would be money, and it was bad day
when | found out I'd made mistake.
My sister was wild with disappoint-

sister and L.
1 was watching Alison. Her hands
were tightly clasped in her lap, and
she was staring out of the window at
the cheerless roof below. She had
set her lips little, but that was all.
You understand, of course, that I'm
not defending myself" went on the
sullen voice. The day came when
old Harrington put us both out of the
house at the point of revolver, and
| threatened-I suppose you know
that, tool threatened to kill him.
My sister and | had hard times
after that. We lived on the contin-

young lady there, the granddaughter
of a steel manufacturer and an heir

with new title, but we had row,
and | came home. / went out TO the
Heaton boys ranch in Wyoming, and
met Bronson there. He lent me mon
ey, and I've been dong his dirty work
ever since"
Sullivan got up then and walked
slowly forward and back as he talked,
his eyes on the faded pattern of the
Office rug.
IF you want to live in hell" he
said savagely, put yourself in anoth-
er mans power. Bronson got. into

his berth, and the night before the
wreck, just as | was boarding the
train, | got a telegram
Hotchkiss stepped forward once
more Importantly.

Sullivan looked at the little man
with sulky blue eyes.
1T was something like that, any
how. But ii was nasty business,
and it made matters worse that he
didn't care that telegram which
must pass through a half dozen hands

You scoundrel," / burst forth,
thrusting past Alison Vests chair.
"You-you Internal cur"
One of the detectives got up and
stood between us.
You must remember, Mr.. Blakeley,
that you are forcing this story from
this man. These details are unpleas-
ant, but important. You were going
TO marry this young lady," he said,
turning to Sullivan, although you al
ready had wife living?"
1T was my sisters plan, and ! was
in bad way for money. If | could
marry, secretly, a wealthy girl and go
TO Europe it was unlikely that Ida

of it,
so it was more than shock to see
my wife on the train, and to realize

Hotchkiss was leaning forward now,
his eyes narrowed, his thin lips drawn
to a line.

he asked.
Sullivan stopped in surprise

NO. II would do no good, and she
was in a bad way without that to

Your sister was killed. think
The shorter detective took a small
package from his pocket and held ii
in his hand, swapping the rubber band
which held it.
Yes, she was killed." Sullivan said
soberly What | say now can do her

He stopped to push back the heavy
hair which dropped over his fore
head. and went on more connectedly

arming the man and then marched
all three OF them to the county Jail
Jesus Lopez is the man who at

encia and Iniconte GalOs. Lopez has
been charged with assault with
deadly weapon while a misdemeanor
