 Meanwhile. the alleged gunman with his sympathizers, had followed the intrepid youth from 1skooda, and explained the case to the officer. The amateur sleuth however. insisted that the young man. who by the way Is a blond and bears as much resemblance to the published photos of 'Gyp the Blood as one of the Bull Moosers does to Taftan, was the sought for New York gunman and pleaded with the officer to share the reward with him. Officer Taylor examined the victim and decided that the only resene blance was that both were men. He then took the inebriated Iskoodan into custody, but as friends of the Holmes pupil said they would see him safely out of the city limits he was released.
