nnmc and the number Of this house rhnt proves. doesn't it. that this fei- low came to New York expressly to sec Mir vnntiner'
 Perhaps you think Mir. vantine Kill ed him." suggested Goldberger sarcas- tically.
 No" said Godfrey. He didn't have time"
 "Thants." said vantine driiy.
 "I suppose. then. you think it was Parks" snid Goldberger.
 Tt may quite possibly have been Parks" agreed Godfrey Gravely.
 "Nonsense!" broke in vantine impa. tiently.
 "Cf course it's nonsense" assented Goldberger. Its nonsense to say that he was killed by anybody. He killed himself"
 "I'll cable to Paris" said Simmonds. If he belongs there we'll soon ind out who he is"
 You'd better call an ambulance and have him taken to the morgue." went on Goldberger. Somebody may iden- tify him there. Therell be a crowd | tomorrow, for. of course. the papers | will be full of this affair."
 The Record at least will have a very full account" Godfrey assured him.
 And I'll call the inquest for the day after" Goldberger continued. "1'n send my physician down to make a post mortem right away. If there's my poison in this fellows stomach we'll find it"
 Godfrey did not speak. but I knew what was in his mind He was think ing that if such poison existed the yes. sel which had contained it had not yet been found The same thought no doubt occurred to Simmonds. for after ordering the policeman In the hall to call the ambulance he returned and began a careful search of the room. using his electric torch to illumine every shadowed corner Godfrey de- both were without result Then God frey made a minute inspection of the injured hand. while Goldberger looked on with i'll concealed impatience and finally Godfrey moved toward the door.
 "I think I'll be going" he said. But I'm interested in what your physician will And. Mir. Coroper. Will you be at home tonight. Lestkr?"
 "Yes. 1 expect to be-" answered. You're still nt the MarathonT ''Yes." said; "sult IA" Perhaps I'll drop around to see you" he said And a moment later we heard the door close behind him as Parks let him out
 "Godfrey's a good man." said Gold. berger. but he's too romantic Take this case Here's a man kills himself. and Godfrey wants us to believe that death resulted from a scratch on the hand. Why. there's no poison on earth would kill man as quick as that. for he must have dropped dead before he could get out o' the room to summon help. If it was prcssic acid he swal lowed it.
 How do you explain the iddre,s or the card Mir. Goldberger;" Sskcd. My theory is that this fellow really had some business with Mir. Vantine Probably he wanted to borrow some money or ask for help. and then while he was waiting he suddenly gave the thing up md killed himself. The ad dress has no bearing whatever that can see. on the question of suicide ! And I'll say this. Mir. Lester. If thls isn't suicide Here's the ambulance. The bearers entered with the stretch : CT, placed the body on 1t and carried \ 1t away. Goldberger paused to gathe up the articles be had taken from th, dead mans pockets.
 You gentlemen will have to giv' your testimony at the inquest" h. | said; ESQ will Parks and Rogers. l
