The helpers had gathered around

quickly regarding the moving Of tn.

and his second man were much EN-

left wholly to the younger man, their
assistant, The young fellow finally
recalled two or three OF the long
shoremen who had assisted with the
work.
WAS there one who looked as
though he might he a native of Bor-
neo?" questioned Poe sharply.
"Yes, a black man has hung around
here for the past three or four days.
They call him Jack; he's a wharf-rat
from Borneo.. He was the one who
insisted on dropping his end Of the
tank right In front of the window, and
it was left there because 1t was late
and / was in hurry for my lunch and

""Good." cried Poe. Turning to the
member Of the firm. he requested that
gentleman to wait for him there until
midnight, and left at once, having
stopped to examine some rather indis-
tinct marks On the floor, leading from
the crocodile pond to tho small window
in the rear, from which the bars had
been torn. .
Then he hurried around to the mar
row Lodging at the back OF tho ware
house, and found, as he had expected,
that the shed next door cut of view
of the little window from any small
passing water-craft, and there were no
big vessels In motion that afternoon.
Having assured himself OF this, and
made note OF bloody print on the
side OF the wall below the window, Poe
hurried to the end OF nearby wharf,
and rented boat with a. man to row
him. Ho ordered the oarsman to take
him back to the rear OF the animal
warehouse. and then rev out slowly
past the end OF the docks. There he
had the boat held still while he ex-
arnined the bank on both the right and
left. Finding that one side offered
comparative safety from observation
on account OF being subject to less
traffic, and having smaller deserted

rowed In that direction.
He kept q sharp lookout along the
bank for rowboats or small craft OF
any sort. Several times he drew to.

the interior OF boat drawn up, m.

to answer to the object OF his search.
At length. past six o'clock. he came
to little dock where boats were rent
ed to the public. Here he landed, and
tipped the proprietor for permission to
examine the interior Of his skifIs. He
went over them carefully. and finished
with q pushed look, having found
nothing.
Suddenly he turned to the proprietor,
and asked In faultless German for IN

Tho man brought out some dirty
cloths. and Poe looked them over care
fully. missing nothing. Again his short,
thick eyebrows came together sharply.
and he shrugged his shoulders In dis.

one corner. and picked up q handful
OF neglected rags.
A throaty cry came from the old
man.
Leave those alone!" he beloved,
charging Poe.
But Poe had unwrapped ore, and
was holding 1t before the horrified old
eyes OF the waterman. 1t was bit oil
burlap. and 1t was heavy and stained
black with blood.

Poe. realizing the condition of affairs
