1t Is q common thing in this country
to see whole families growing up with

DRAWING the Net.


The zone of danger" as the Bulle-
tin named it. was Immediately the
scene of swarming activities. Besides
the expedition Immediately despatched
by the interests backing the investi-
cation, several enterprising newspa-
pers saw a fine chance for big scoop,
and sent out much-heralded parties of
their own. The activities Of these
were well reported, you may be sure.
Public interest was at once focused
reassuringly on the chances of finding
the annoying malefactor today or to-
morrow; there no longer existed a
doubt that he would be found. The
weight OF dread was lifted, and in the
reaction people made light of the in
conveniences and fun Of the menacing
messages that now came in by the
dozen.

he did nothing whatever. Jack War

Confusion Worse COMPOUNDED.


The absolute failure OF Eldridge's
hypothesis Immediately threw public
confidence into a profound reaction.
Certainty gave place to- complete dis
trust. Rumor gained ground. The
exodus increased. Where formerly only
those who could do so without great
sacrifice or inconvenience had left
town. now people were beginning to
cut loose at any cost. Men resigned
their positions in order to get their
families away; others began to ar
range their affairs as best they might,
as though for long vacation. AS yet
panic had not appeared openly in the
light of day. but she lurked in the
shadows of mems hearts.
The railroads and steamboats, were
crowded beyond their capacity. Extra
trains followed one another as close
together as the block signals would
allow them to run. Humanity packed
the cars. 1t was like continual series
Of football days. In three OF item 1t
was estimated that two hundred thou
sand people had left Manhattan. 1t
would have been physically impossible
for the transportation lines to have
carried thousand more. They had
reached their capacity; the spigot was
wide open.
Percy barrow showed Jack the head
lines to this effect.
Cheerful thought" he suggested.
Suppose the whole four million should
want to get out at the same time!"
An hour and half after the bulletin
announcing the failure of the search
had been posted, Eldridge rushed into
the wireless Office. The plague Of
darkness had lifted after fifteen min.
utes' duration.
Call Monsieur X" he gasped to the
day operator. In fifteen minutes, by
rapid substitutions Of batteries to
weaken or strengthen the sending cur
rent, he had predetermined his previ-
Gus data. Apparently. without the
shadow of doubt, Monsieur X was
within the circle.
HE may be at sea-" suggested the
operator.
But Eldridge shook his head. The
circle of the sea had been well pa
trolled, and for days.
Begin all over again." drawled
barrow. II told you that you were
on the wrong track"
Eldridge glanced at him.

said he tartly.

his slow and exasperating smiles.
Perhaps not. But you'd better get
to thinking. You won't be able always
to take things easy. You may have to
hustle before long,"

JAPAN MAKES
FORMAL PROTEST
Ambassador Tells Pres. Wilson
Entente Is jeopardized by
CALIFORNIA; Stand.

WASHINGTON, April 15.-ATnaeS
with a formal demand from Japan
that the United States government
take further steps to prevent the
passage by the California Legislature
of any bill detrimental to the inter-
ests of Japan, Count Chinda. the
Japanese ambassador. called on Pres
ident Wilson after the cabinet meet
ing today.
The Japanese representative told
the chief executive that Toxic regard
ed the alien land bill. now under con-
sideration in California, as direct
slap at Japan, and intimated that it
would be dangerous to the diplomatic
entente of the two countries to per-
NIT the bill to become a law.
Cautiously, the President pointed
out to the ambassador that the con-
stitution of the United States forbids
the Federal government to NEEDLE in
State legislation. The President
promised that everything would be
done by himself and the State de-
partment to prevent the passage of
any law which might be considered
as antagonistic to Japanese interests
or transgressing any existing treaty.
