John ] Nyhoff, former commissioner
of public works in Gary, mentioned by
T B. Dean in connection with bribery
charges. and who Prosecutor Charles
B. Greenwald says there is warrant
out for his arrest, gave an interview
with a TINES reporter this morning in
which he emphatically denies the graft
charges. Nyhoff was found at Eighth
avenue and Adams street where he
was experimenting some workmen on
a sand job. He said:
II don't see the reason why this war
rant should not be served if it has been
issued. I wanted to go to Chicago. but
/ have been staying around here.
With reference to the bribery
charges I have this to say: Dean fire.

told him IN presence of witnesses that !
would never vote for his heating fran
chise while I was the board, as
was in the coal business, and his heat
ing proposition would hurt my business.
Dean then proposed in the presence of
witnesses that he buy the business. He
fixed $4,000 as the value of the good
will and l placed the assets at $4,000.

hadn't turned the corner till he maced
me for $50" And according to Dean
there was dainty little dictagraph IN
der the seat of the machine all the
time.
The night before the trap was sprung
in which Dean says Mayor Knots was
caught, Dean had a long talk with
Sheriff Grant at Crown Point and in
the course Of that talk Dean said II
don't want that geek to nail that $4,000,
so we can't get it back

why one deputy sheriff read the war

money from the desk.

some of the hungry ones thought he

every bin was marked, the numbers

CHAPTER Xl.
YnINfY VALENTINE 4.

YIMMY VALENTINE entered his
private office from the room
where the new vault had been
erected. He saw Rose Lane
standing close to his desk. where Bob
by was presiding with all the dignity
that went with his age. The girls
eyes met his. but only for an instant.
Valentine lowered his gaze to the floor,
his thoughts whirllng rapidly through
his brain.
True. at one time he had had serious
thought concerning the beautiful
young woman who had saved him
from Sing Sing, from Warden Handler
and the warden's favorite pastime of
solitaire.
But of late he had come TO realize
that he would be doing her lastin .
wrong, a vital injustice to permit him
self to make any serious advances to-
ward her. She had been attracted by
him. She was now even more inter
ested In him. He was observing
enough to learn this. As for his own
emotions toward her? He loved her.
That no one would deny who saw him
In her company. He could not con-
ceal it. Even the infantile Bobby had
guessed what he had endeavored to
make his secret Yet he had realized
plainly the uncertainty of his position.
At any moment the unexpected might
happen, or, rather, the expected might
happen. and some one would possibly
uncover and reveal phases of his past
that he would be unable to explain.
Such had been the guiding thought Of
Jimmy Valentine in his social inter.
course with the bankers daughter
during his tenure as assistant cashier
in the bank in Springfield, and uC% he
saw more clearly than ever th. wis.
dom Of his course. DOyle-Doyle, the
relentless tracker Of en-had threat
ened to get" him, and Doyle was al.
ways an element TO be reckoned with.
Although Doyle's threat had been
made years before, Valentine had
never underestimated the detectives
ability nor his tenacity of purpose.
While he. Valentine had taken nrecan-

The assistant cashier dropped his
chin into his palm and stared vacant
ly at the opposite wall.
Doyle" he muttered - George
Doyle. He said he'd get me If it took
ten years-a lifetime. Well. perhaps
he can; then, again. perhaps he can
not. At any rate, he can probably ruin
my career, my hopes, my standing here.
where ! have friends who believe in
me-"
Valentine leaned hack meditatively
in his chair The fatal telegram drop
ped unheeded TO the floor. His mouth
set determinedly. A new fire blazed
in his eyes, the fire that had consumed
him and had spurred him on when in
the days and nights of the past be had
ventured forth on a desperate enter
prise.
He would give George Doyle a race.
that he would. He would match his
wit against that of the skilled sleuth.
He already had laid the basis for what
now must be his course of procedure,
and he believed that II would with.
stand even the cunning and force of
George Doyle. At any rate, he could
try.
Valentine leaned forward and press.
ed button. A clerk entered. The as.
sistant cashier hesitated moment,
then spoke quickly.
"Tell the watchman TO come here"
he directed
The clerk nodded and went out in
search of Red Flanagan-yes, Red,
none other than the one time accom-.
plice of Jimmy Valentine, whom the
latter, true to his word, had taken
with him in his attempt to "gO it
straight"
Flanagan must be told OF the COM
ing Of Doyle, who was his sworn enc
my also. In addition, Red would have
to assist the assistant cashier, now
known as Mr.. Randall. In the maneu-
yer which the latter was about to ex-
ecute.
Then there was Avery-old Bill
Avery. From the day that Valentine
had sent him away from the hotel in
Albany Avery had been making heroic
efforts to live ION the square,"
The three years that had elapsed
since No. 1889 had advanced Avery,

ate type. the price of a railroad ticket,

tion in him. Today he was married
had growing business and had per
formed for Valentine a service that
was to render the vengeful efforts of
GeOrge Doyle much more difficult and
somewhat less effective than the de-
tective would relish should he ever
learn the truth.
Avery had been in communication
with Valentine on various occasions in
a secret manner So carefully conceal
ed. in fact, had been his moves that
not even Red Flanagan had obtained
the slightest knowledge of them.
True. Red was aware that Valentine
had received various puzzllng com
munications from one mfr. Cronin.
but how was Red to know that Mr.
Cronin was Bill Avery unless the as
sistant cashier was pleased so to In
form him. which he was not?
At first Valentine had had the belle

They must have expected it in Cleve-
land, for Colonel Garner in 'phoning the
results of the third game yesterday in
to our representative, said there were
n 1t enough people on hand to lick the
empire IN. B. This is merely slang
expression of the Colonels and doesn't
mean that Mr.. Mclaughlin deserved
amy chastsement whatever.) AS to the
game, it evidently seemed to the eS-
tcemed citizens of Cleveland that the
soldiers have about everything needed
in the game including the habit, kind
of "gamomaniacs" as 1t were. Up to
the sixth inning Prof. Douglas and Mr..
Rose, the competing manufacturers of
corkscrews, foughti 1T out between them.
Then the soldier boys fetched up few
pieces of ordinance and the students in
dulged in many mistakes, which gave us
the third and last game, making it three
straight. # appears from the figures
that Cleveland lost rather than Johnson
City won. The students got five hits,
the soldiers four, but errors did the rest.
Accorsini, Weldon, Shaw and McDan-
iels got those four hits. Weldon got
real comical in the latter part of the
game, when he came to the bat he be-
