"Cassidy! Cassidy"
Cassidy came rushing in with the
other detectives.
"Why, what's it all mean, chief?" he
questioned.
"They've got Griggs!' Burke answer

voice as he spoke from his kneeling
posture beside the body, to which he
had hurried after the summons to his
aids. "I'll break you for this, Cas-
sidy," he declared 6ercely. "Why
didn't you get here on the run when
you heard the shot?''
"But there wasn't any shot. I tell
you. chief, there hasn't been a sound.'
Burke rose to his feet His heavy
face was set in its sternest mold.
"You could drive hearse through
the hole they made in him." said Cas-
sidy. Burke wheeled on Mary and

Dick took the revolver from his peck

At this discriminating crisis for the

"Whats all this?" he exclaimed.

"What do you expect?" Burke In

fact, the things simple enough, young
man. Either you killed Griggs or she
did"

a careless gesture toward the corpse of

He was interrupted by the swift
swinging open Of the hallway door.
Burke stood just within the library, a
revolver pointed menacingly.
Hands up. all Of you!" The inspec-
tors voice fairly roared the command.
The belligerent expression of his face
vanished abruptly as his eyes fell on
Dick standing by the couch and Mary
reclining there in limp helplessness.
"What are you doing in this house
ut this time Of night?" Dick demanded
IL recognize you, Inspector Burke
But you must understand that there
are limits even to what you can do
1t seems to me, sir, that you exceed
your authority by such an intrusion as
this"
Burke waved his revolver toward
Mary.
"What's she doing here?" he asked.
''You forget yourself, inspector. This
is my wife. She has the right to be
with me-her husband!'
"Where's your father?' he questioned
roughly.
In bed. naturally" was the answer.
II ask you again, What are you doing
here at this time Of night?'

rected.

AS he spoke the white beam Of the
flashing searchlight from the tower
fell between the undrawn draperies of
the octagonal window. The light star
tied the inspector again. as it had done
once before that same night. His gaze
followed it instinctively. So within the
second he saw the still form lying

CHAPTER XIV.
Within the Tolls.

"HE going of Carson left the
room deathly still. Dick turn
ed to Mary and took her hand
in his. His arm swept about
her in protecting embrace-just in
time Or she would have fallen.
A whisper came from her quivering
lips. Her face was close to his, else
he could not have caught the uncertain
murmuring. The muscles of her face
twitched. She rested supinely against
him as If .bereft Of any strength of
body or of soul. Yet, in the intensity
of her utterance, the feeble whisper
struck like Shrek Of horror
I-l-never saw any one killed be-
fore!''
Before he could utter the soothing
words that rose to his lips, Dick was
interrupted by slight sound at the
door. Instantly he was all alert to
meet the exigencies of the situation
He stood by the couch. bending for
ward little as If in posture of init
mate fondness. He heard the noise
again presently, now SO near that he
made sure Of being overheard. so at

On the instant, aware that further
subterfuge could be of no avail, Griggs
staggered defiance.
"And what If it is true?" he drawled
with resumption Of his aristocratic
manner. He plucked the police whis
tie from his waistcoat pocket and
raised 1t to his lips.
He moved too slowly. Carson had
pulled the pistol from his pocket, had
pressed the trigger. There came no
squirt of flame. There was no sound
save perhaps faint clicking noise

and to avoid a war which otherwise
will be inevitable
This was the charge of Senator
Fall as he laid before the Senate and
the country the details of siXty-four
cases of killings, assaults and OUT
rages on American citizens and Other
foreigners, with the particulars Of
which he was familiar.
The word pictures he drew of these
acts of barbarity and his dignitied.
but severe, arraignment of the aj-
ministration, held the closest atten-
ton of every senator.
II warn this Senate" said Senator
Fall. "that Germany will not be so
ouiescent should German subject
be killed as was Great Britain. The
tone of the German press with its in
spired editorials should be read with
profit. There is danger of conflict
with this country, with which the
United States should always be az
peace.
"We owe duty to ourselves to
avoid the imminent danger of con-
1ict with some other country grow
ing oft of the conditions in Mckee
and our policy in dealing with that
country. We owe duty to the Mexi-
can people themselves, and we owe a
duty to humanity that we cannot es-
cape. i realize fully the consequences
that might arise from taking the
necessary steps to discharge these du-
ties. To defer action is to aggravata
the conditions and invite NOR seri-
Gus consequences.
Senator Fall fairly staggered the
Senate with mass of distressing dc
tails of murder, torture and outrages
en- women and mistreatment of chill
dren.
"We have fiddled while Mexico
burned; we have seen our citizens
murdered and outraged and hun
dreds of millions of dollars of their
property destroyed" he declared.
AS the senator read from his list
CT atrocities, which, he said. were well
known to the state department., he
made running comments, showin =
that the state department, under IT,.
present administration had dom
nothing beyond making protests tha;
were never followed up.
"The case of Joshua Stevens, kill
near Colonia while defending his
daughters from attack" he said
