SYNOPSIS.

John Calhoun becomes secretary of
state in ,Tyler's cabinet with the hxed de,
Oregon. Nicholas Trist, his secretary. Is
sent with a message to the Baroness Won
Ritz, spy and reputed mistress OF the
British minister, Pakenham. Trist en-
counters the baroness and assists her in
escaping from purSuers. She agrees to
see Calhoun, and as pledge that she
will tell him what he wants to know re-
garding the intentions of England toward
Mexico, she gives Trist slipper, the
mate of which has been lost; Trist is or,
dered to Montreal on state business, and
arranges to be married to Elizabeth
Churchill before departing. The baroness
says she will try to prevent the marriage.
A drunken congressman, who is assisting
Trist in mis- wedding arrangements blum
deringly sends the baroness slipper to
Elizabeth instead of the owner, and the
marriage is declared off. Nicholas finds
the baroness in Montreal, she having sue
ceeded, where he failed in discovering
England's intentions regarding Oregon.
She tells him the slipper he had con-
tained note from the Texas attache to
States did not annex Texas within 80 days
she would lose both Texas and Oregon.
Calhoun orders Trist to head a party
bound for Oregon. Calhoun excites the
jealousy of Sonora Yturrio, and thereby
secures the signature of the Texas at
tache to a treaty of annexation. Nicholas
arrives in Oregon. Later the baroness ar
rives on q British warship.. She tells
Nicholas that a note she placed in her
slipper caused the breaking off Of his
marriage, and that she intends to return
to Washington to repair the wrong.
Nicholas follows her. He learns on the
way that Polk has been elected and
Texas annexed, and that there is to be
war with Mexico. The baroness tells
Trist that in return for a compromise of
the Oregon boundary on the forty-ninth
degree, she has sold herself to Pakenham.
She tells him the story of her life.
Trist breaks Pakenham's key to the
baroness apartments. Pakenham calls
for his price, and the baroness refuses to
to apologize, holds him up in his true
light, and he declares that she is pure as
lily. The treaty is signed by Pallen-
ham. The baroness gives the treaty to
Calhoun and tells him she got it for
Nicholas.
