sf Tho Safety-Pln Again.
Moncharmfn's last phrase 30 clearly
expressed the suspicion in which he
now held his partner that 1t was
bound to cause a stormy explanation.
at the end of which 1t was agreed that
Richard should yield to all Monchar-
minis wishes. with the object OF help
ing him to discover the miscreant
who was victimizing them.
This brings US to the interval after
the Garden Act, with the strange con-
duct observed by M. Remy and those
curious lapses from the dignity that
might be expected OF the managers.
1t was arranged between Richard and
Moncharmin, first, that Richard should
repeat the exact movements which he
had made on the night of the disap-
pearance Of the first twenty-thousand
francs; and. second, that Moncharmin
should not for an instant lose sight
Of Richards coat-tail pocket, into
which Name Giry was to slip the
twentythousand francs.
M. Richard went and placed him
self at the Identical spot where he
had stood when he bowed to the un-
der-secretary for fine arts. M Mon
charmin took up his position a few
steps behind him
Name Giry passed. rubbed up

Or. rather. she was conJured

tions received from Moncharmin a few
minutes earlier, Mercier took the
good lady to the acting-manager's
office and turned the key on her, thus
making 1t impossible for her to COM
municate with her ghost.
Meanwhile, NJ. Richard was bending
and bowling and scraping and walking
backward, just as II he had that high
and mighty minister. the under-secre-
tary for fine arts. before him. Only,
though. these marks of politeness
would have created no astonishment

steps behind him. NJ Moncharmin did
the same thing that he was doing, in
addition to pushing away M. Remy
and begging M. de La Borderie, the
ambassador and the manager OF the

Moncharmin, who had his own
IDEAS did not want Richard to come
to him presently, when the twenty
thousand francs were gone. and say:
Perhaps It was the ambassador
or the manager OF the Credit
central or Kenny"
The more SO as, at the time OF the
first scene, as Richard himself admit
ted, Richard had met nobody in that
part Of the theater after Name Giry
had brushed up against him.
Having begun by walking backward
in order to bow, Richard continued to
do 80 from prudence, until he reach

Il am sure of my servants

Moncharmin shrugged his shoulders
as though to say that he did not wish
to enter into details. and Richard be
gan to think that Moncharmin was
treating him in very insupportabls
fashion.
