 | concluded that Grady was trying to throw net about the territory In which the fugitive was probably con cealed. But my interest in that ma neuver was overshadowed for the time being by my anxiety for Sim monds picked up his right hand and looked at it. Then drew q deep breath of relief. for 1t was uniniured.
 Has any one sent for dOctorT I asked.
 "yes. sir" one of the bank attaches answered "We telephoned for one at once. Here he is now!' he added, as a little black bearded man entered, car. rying the inevitably identifying medi cine case.
 The newcomer glanced at the body, waved us back. fell on one knee. strip ped away the clothing from the breast | and applied his ear to the heart Lets have some water" he said. Hes had q taste or whiff of some thing that has stopped the heart ac- | tion."
 With n queer, creepy feeling over my scalp. remembered the little flask half full of blood red liquid which Crochard carried in his pocket.
 But he had not meant murder this time. 1 remembered that Godfrey had said he never killed an adversary. The doctor worked away briskly. and at the end o( few minutes Simmonds drew a long breath and sat erect Then his eyes opened. and he sat sway ing unsteadily and staring amazedly about him.
 ; Where nm I?' he gasped. Then his eyes encountered mine. "Lester!" he said. Where is he-PigotT
 Scarcely knowing what l did I grop-- ed my way to the telephone and asked for Godfrey's number. hoping against hope absurdly. and at last, to my in- tense surprise and relief. l heard his voice, not a very amiable voice.
 T tried to get you," explained. "as soon as Simmonds told me they were going to look at the cabinet. phoned the office. The city editor said he had sent you out into Westchester."

 Yes" l said breathlessly. yes"
 "Well. that man was Crochard. He got Pigot into his stateroom; gave him a whiff of the same stun he used on slmmonds, no doubt; put him out of the way under the berth. got into his clothes. made up his face. put on a wlg-and all that while we were kick ing our heels outside waiting for him. Crochard Is an artist in that line. and he was. no doubt. thoroughly familiar with Pigot's appearance. He took the papers of Pigot. set his bag outside the staterQom door and then came out calmly to meet his dear friends of the press You remember he said he would come todayY
 Yes"
 There's one consolation - it will break Grady"
 But Godfrey" I said. If you could have seen those diamonds-those beau. tiful diamonds-and to think he should be able to get away with them from right under our nosesr' Its pretty bad isn't it? But there's no nse crying over split milk. Lester" he added. fin another tone. "l want you to be in your office at noon tomOrrow-or. rather. today. I have got one more bomb to explode.
