In the end, leave the issue with

That night Poole slept well for the
first time since he had received those
fateful kilograms. His terror of his
enemy had abated; a week or so had
passed. and surely he had no further
cause for dread. If indeed Haynes
were pursuing his enemies, it was i'm
probable that he would seek him out:
perhaps he would be caught at his first
attempt, if such there should be, and
why should Haynes seek out the lesser
conspirators, when the leaders re-

guess that the spy Ricardo. the
man who had shot Haynes, had

presence with Poole in that remote

Eleanor nodded briskly.
And you were holding out for some

Eleanor nodded and laughed.

WIND PREVENTS
RUNNING Of !.
N. BOAT SUNDAY
Golden Fleece Taking Place Of Trans.
fer Marquand, Makes No Trips
to Birds Point.

D1cause of the velocity of the
wind yesterday, the Iron Mountain
train on the Missouri division due
to leave here at 10 p. m, and the
train due TO arrive at O'Clock,
were annulled. ~BTysWsl
The steamer Golden Fleece which
is running in the place of the Henry
MarQuand could not safely venture
out into the river to make the ferry
to Birds Point. The boat had a
large list of passengers but it was
thought unwise to attempt the trip
on account Of the heavy wind. II
was thought that the wind would
die down and the trip could be
made later; the velocity continued
ana the trip was finally abandoned.
Some of the passengers went out on
the Illinois division of the Mountain
TO Thehes and then down the main
line. All mail and express went
out over this line. The train due
here at Z o'clock was stepped at
Charleston and the passengers spent
the night there.
It was hoped to have the trains
running on schedule time this morn
ing.
