INVESTIGATE
DYNAMITING
OF The TIMES

Los Angeles, May 24.-Promptly at
10 o'clock Conners was brought be-
fore the grand jury and his examina-
tion by Deputy District Attorney Hor-
ton renewed. j. NJ. Parks, the other
suspect, was not brought before the
jury, as it was believed that the en-
tire morning session would be con-
sumed in the examination of Con-
ners. All other witnesses in the case
were excused until 1870 this after
noon.
George H. Gunrey, local secretary
of the iron workers, branded as false
the report that Conners and Parks
were on the payroll of the local un-
ion. His books, he said, were open to
inspection, and that they showed
neither Conners nor Parks had drawn
money from the local as a result of
the present strike. He said they
were not connected with the local un-
ion in any way but admitted they
might belong to one of the Eastern
unions.

CHAPTER xIlI.-Continued.

They passed long series of doors,
the glass panels of which were in
scribed, "The Wallingham Company
Private" with index fingers pointing
the direction of the main entrance.
This was the Chicago branch Of the
great New York corporation, and
Thomas Wallingham, ST., had placed
his son in charge of it two years
before. The business was the manu-
facture of refrigerators One side of
the reception room which Orme en-
tered hulriedly, Alcatrante still be-
side him, was given over to large
specimen refrigerator chamber, built
In with glistening white tiles. The
massive doc Z; three feet thick was
wide open, showing the spotless inner
chamber. In the outer wall was Their
mometer dial fully foot in diameter.
Once inside the reception room
Orme stopped and looked again at AL
catrante There was menace in the
look, but the South American did not
finch. Indeed, the glance which met
his own seemed to Orme to be dis
armingly good natured. Its essence
was a humorous recognition that the
situation had a ridiculous side.
But Orme, knowing that much was
at stake. did not for an instant trust
his unwelcome companion. Alca'

Prisoners in the Dark.

Prisoners in the Dark.
Orme's hand still held her skirt.
Girl" he whispered.
Yes. Are you hurt?"
Her voice came to him softly with
all its solicitude and sympathy. She
knelt, to help him if need be, her
warm, supple hand rested gently on
his forehead. He could have remained
for a long time as he was, content with
her touch, but his good sense told him
that their safety demanded action.
Not hurt at ALL" he said, and as
she withdrew her hand, he arose. al
catrante caught me off guard" he ex-
planned.
Yes, saw him. There wasn't time
to warn you"
He has been dogging me for an

"He is never to be trusted"
But you-how did you happen to be

In the hope OF tndlng you.

81 called up the Pere Marquette
about five minutes ago, and the clerk
said that you had just been talking to
him on the wire, but that he didn't
know where you were. Then | remem-
bered that you knew the Wallinghams,

explained Orme.
Yes, the girl at the inquiry desk

leave for the night, and l slipped into
this chamber to wait for you"
And here we are" Orme laughed
papers and all. But wish it weren't

Orme hunted his pockets for a
match. He found just one.

to her, then get Alcatrante from the
room.
In casual way he folded his arms.
He could now put his hand into his In
side coat pocket and the motion would
hardly be noticed.
For a moment he stood as though
waiting for some one to appear at the
inquiry window. Though Alcatrante
was watching him closely, Orme con-
tinued to act as if he were the only
person in the room.
And now the dial of the big Their
mometer in the outer wall of the re-
frigerator appeared to catch his eye,
and he strolled over to it. This placed
him almost in the open doorway. APP
parently his eyes were on the dial, but
in reality he was glancing sidewise into
the chamber of the refrigerator. He
glimpsed moving figure in there
heard faint rustling Trusting his
hand into the inside of his coat, he was
about to take out the precious papers
to pass them in to her.
Then he received a violent push
from behind He plunged forward,
tripped with one foot on the sill of the
refrigerator doorway, and went in
headlong, sprawling on the tiled floor.
His clutching hand caught the fold of
woman's skirt. Then, though he re-
NAMED conscious, everything suddenly
turned black.
Bewildered las he was, several sec
onds passed before he realized that the
massive door had been closed-that he
and the girl were prisoners.

trante would cling to him ike an
Old Man of the Sea, awaiting the OPP
portunity to get the better of him.
Every wife would be employed; but
publicity was no part of the game
Orme began really to believe that.
To shake off Alcatrante, perhaps
there was no better way than to lure
him to some deserted place and over
power him. But would not Alcatrante
be likely to have anticipated such
move? And would he not resort to
desperate measures of his own before
Orme could put his own plans into
practise? Bixby might help.
Orme walked over to the inquiry
window. 81 want to see Mr. Bixby,"
he said, offering his. card.
The young woman behind the win
dow took the card, but at the same
time she said: "Mr. Bixby left few
minutes ago. He won't be back to-
day. Shall keep the card for him.?
1T doesn't matter, thank you" he
said, turning away. Luck was against
him. Besides Bixby no one in the Of
flee knew him.
Alcatrante smiled genially. Since
Mr.. Bixby is absent" he remarked,
shall we leave the notification of the
notes until tomorrow"
What are you talking about?" ex-
claimed Orme.
"Why--" Alcatrante's face was the
picture of astonishment-"the Walling-
ham company notes, of course. The
notes you wish to sell me-" His voice
was raised so that the girl behind the
window could not help hearing.
Rot" said Orme.
WHAT" A note of indignation crept
into Alcatrante's voice. Are you
evading? Perhaps you thought l would
not insist on the verification." An
other clerk, man, had joined the girl
behind the window. Alcatrante sud
denly addressed him. This Mr.. Orme
told me that he needed to raise money
and would transfer to me cheap some
notes signed by your company. met
him at the hotel. He said that If
would come here with him, he would
show the notes and have them veri-
fed. l don't understand"
The clerk left the window, and,
opening a door, came into the recep-
ton room. What are the notes you
have?" he asked.
81 have none" replied Orme, in dis
gust. 81 have never pretended to have
any. This man is crazy, think" He
pointed to Alcatrante. He has fol
lowed me here unlimited for reasons of
his own l asked for Mr.. Bixby, whom
| know. l would have asked for Mr..
Wallingham, my personal friend, but
that had already learned of his being
at Arradale"
There's funny business here some
where" exclaimed Alcatrante, with
great earnestness. do you mean to
say that you did not introduce your
self to me in the lobby Of the Framing
ton and ask me to buy the notes|
Orme did not answer
With a conservative eye the clerk
looked at the two. He was not one to
involve himself in a dubious affair
81 can't settle this matter for you,
gentlemen" he said.
With a slight bow, Orme went into
the hall. 1t dawned upon him why AL
catrante had invented so remarkable
a story Without question, the min
lister had feared that Orme would en-
list aid in the office, or that at least he
would manage to deposit the coveted
papers in safety while he found other
means to get rid of his shadow. Hence
the sudden effort to discredit Orme.
