Good day." said MI. Grimm.
The door opened and closed; he
was gone. Three minutes later he
stepped into a telephone booth at a
nearby corner and took down the re-
ceiver.
Hello, CENTRAL" he called, and
then: This is Mr.. Grimm of the Sc
cret Service. What number was Mr..
Howard talking to?"
Eleven dou%ble-nought six. Alexan-

Where is the connection? In whose

THE connection is five miles out
from Alexandria in a farmhouse on

crisp, business-like answer. 1.-THE name

Thank you." said Mr.. Grimm.
"Good-by."

the curb waiting for a car, when How

sion of deep chagrin on his face, came
bustling up.

CHAPTER xxV.-(Contlnued.)

1T Is only a request from the Sec
rotary Of war that l be permitted to
meet the inventor of the wireless per
cussion cap" Mr.. Grimm explained
carelessly. The negotiations have
reached a point where the Wal De-
partment must have one or two ques-
tons answered directly by the inven
tor. Simple enough, you see"
But it has been understood, and l
have personally impressed it upon the
secretary of al that such a meeting
Is impossible" objected Mr.. Howard.
"All negotiations have been conducted
through me-, and I have, as attorney
for the inventor, the right to answer
any question that may properly be an
swered. This now Is a request for a
personal interview with the inventor"
The necessity for such an inter
view has risen unexpectedly, because
of a pressing need of either closing
the deal or allowing it to drop" Mr..
Grimm stated. q may add that the
on this Interview
Mr.. Howard was leaning forward In
his chair with wrinkled brow intently
studying the calm face of the young
man. Innocent himself of all the in
trigue and international chicanery

an individual in these secret nego-
tiations, he saw in the statement, as
Mr.. Grimm intended that he should,

aroused; it might mean hundreds Of
thousands of dollars to him.
do o think the deal can be
made?' he asked at last.
II have no doubt there will be some
sort of a DEAL" replied Mr.. Grimm.
LAS l say, however, it is absolutely de-
pendent on an interview between the
Inventor and myself at once-this
afternoon"
Mr.. Howard thoughtfully drummed
On his desk for a little while. From
the first, save in so far as the patent
rights were concerned, he had seer no
reasons for the obligations of utter
secrecy which had been enforced upon
him. Perhaps, If he laid it before the
inventor in this new light, with the
deal practically closed, the interview
would be possible!
Il have no choice in the matter. Mr..
Grimm" he said at last. II shall have
to put 1t to my client, Of course. Can
you give me. say, half an hour, to
communicate with him?"
Certainly" and Mr.. Grimm rose
obligingly. Shall l wait outside here
or call again."
You may wait. If you don't mind"
said Mr.. Howard. I'll be able to let
you know in a few minutes, l hope"
Mr.. Grimm bowed and passed out,
At the end Of twenty-five minutes the
door of Mr.. Towards private Office
opened and he appeared. His face was

II can't do anything with him." he
declared savagely. HE says simply
that negotiations must be conducted
