The trainmaster was show Ing himself at his loyal best.
 That brings us down to Angels and the present, Mac. How do we stand here?'
 That's what I'd give all my old shoes to know" said McCloskey, his homely face emphasizing his perplex- tty. "They say the shopmen are against us, and if that's so we're out numbered here six to one. I can't find out anything for certain. GridIey is still away, and Dawson hasn't got back, and nobody else knows anything about the shop force."
 "You. say Dawson isn't in? He did not have more than five or six hours work on that wreck. What is the mat ter?"
 "He had bit of bad luck. He got the main line cleared early this morn ing, but in shifting his train and the 'cripples' on the abandoned spur a culvert broke and let the big crane off. He has been all day getting it on again, but he'll be in before dark-so Goodloe says.''
 "And how about Benson?' queried Lidgerwood.
 Hes on 203. I caught him on the other side of Crosswater and took the liberty of signing your name to a wire calling him in."
 ''That was right. With this private car party on our hands we may need every man we can depend upon. l wish Gridley. were here He could han dle the shop outfit. I'm rather surpris- ed that he should be away. He must have known that the volcano was about ready to spout"
 "Gridleys law to himself" said the trainmaster. Sometimes I think he's all right, and at other times I catch myself wondering if he wouldn't tread on me like I was cockroach if hap pened to be in his way.''

 ''This is prejudice, Mac,' and you mustn't give it room. Gridley's all right. We mustn't forget that his de partment thus far is the only one that hasn't given us trouble and doesn't seem likely to give us trouble. I wish could say as much for the force here in the Crows Nest.''

 <tAnd that one is?
 The trainmaster jerked his head to ward the outer office. "It's the man out there, or who was out there when I came through-the one you and l haven't been agreeing on."

 "Not entirely" said the superintend ent, with anger rising. 'The mails will be carried and perishable freight will continue moving. Get every mar you can enlist on our side and buy up all the guns you can find and serve them out; we'll prepare to fight with whatever weapons the other side may force us to use. Does President Brew ster know anything about this?"
 T guess not. They had all gone to bed in the Nadia when the grievance committee came up."
 ''That's good; he needn't know 1t He is going over to the Copperette and we must arrange to get him and his party out of town at once. That will eliminate the women. See to en gazing the buckboards for them and call me when the presidents party is ready to leave"
 "Was this passenger wreck another of the assisted ones?"
 'It was. Two men broke a rail joint on Little Butte side cutting TOT my special and caught the delayed ! passenger instead. Flemister was one of the two"
 And the other?" said McCloskey.
 Lidgerwood hid not name the other.
 We'll get the other man in good time, and if there is any law in this desert we'll hang both of them. Have you unloaded it all?"
 "All but one little item. and maybe you'll rest better if I don't tell you that right now"
 Give 1t a name," said Lidgerwood crisply.
 .'Bart Rufford has broken jail, and he is here in Angels.
 McCloskey was watching his chiefs face, and he was sorry to see the sud- den pallor make it colorless. But the superintendent's voice was quite steady when he said:
 Find Judson and tell him to look out for himself. Rufford won't for give the episode of the s wrench. That's all I'm going to bed"

 "I've heard there was bad blood be tween him and Hallock. It was about that building and loan business, wasn't it?"
 "Shucks, nol That was only a drop in the bucket" said Judson, surprised out of his attitude of rank and file deference. "Hallock was the original owner of the Wire Silver. Didn't you know that?
 "No."
 "He was, and Flemister beat him out of it, lock, stock and barrel-just simply reached out and took it. Then when he had done that he reached out and took Hallock's wife-just to make it a clean sweep was the way he bragged about it''
 Heavens and earthv' calculated the listener. Then some of the hidden things began to define themselves in the light of this astounding revela-

Truly, Flemistel had many crimes to answer for. But the revelation made Hallock's attitude all the more mysterious. It was un accountable save upon one hypothesis that Flemister was able to so play upon the mans weaknesses as to make him mere tool in his hands But Judson was going on to eluci date.
 First off, we all thought Halloch would kill Flemister. Rankin was nev CT much of bragger or much of a talker, but he let out few hints and, accordin' to Red Desert rulin's Flemister wasn't much better than g dead man right then. But it blew over some way, and now

 Weary to the point of mental stagna tion, Lidgerwood still had residence enough left to rise to the new grapple "Is the strike authorized by the Ia Dor union leaders?'' he asked.
