A narrow street in wretched ten
ement quarter, hand organ lying on
the ground, a frightened chattering
money beside it, and the apparent
owner of the instrument, fierce-vis-
aged and brutal, hammering shrink
ing young girl about sixteen with his
fists.
Instantly a casual passer-by, a
well-dressed young man, became an
active participator in the scene. He
was athletic as well as handsome.
One spring, then a reaching out of
forceful hand and he had wrenched
the girl free from the grasp of her
inhuman prosecutor. That sinewy
arm shot out once again. With a
shrieking imprecation in Italian the
girls assailant went dashing back
across the organ, the monkey spring
ing to one side with a curdling squeal
of fright

She was poorly attired, of stunted
growth, typical suggestion of
padrone's slave. She glided forward
to seize the hand of Alan Pearce.
Keep him here till l can get far
away, never to returnw she gasped,
and pressed her lips in token of deep
fervent gratitude on his hand and was
away like a sprite. Pearce waited
till she had disappeared, a square dis
tant. Then he cast a look of con-
tempt upon the wretched tyrant, who
covered like beaten dog, and went
on his way.
He told Annette Ryther, his fiancee,
of the incident that evening. In her
gentle, pitying way she wondered
what would become of the poor
young street beggar. Then, amid
bright plans for the future the theme
drifted out of their minds.

SAY STEAMSHIP OUTSIDE
AWAITED THE 0DENWALD
Onlookers Tell Of Vessel Near San
Juan Harbor, Collector Rich
ardson Reports.

First full Official account of the at
tempt OF the German steamship Oden-
valid to slip out Of the harbor at San
Juan, Porto Rico, without clearance
papers a week ago Sunday has been
received from Collector Of Customs
Richardson. He was one Of the cetnral
figures in the drama that led to the
seizure of the Odenwald by United
States marshal for alleged violation
Of American neutrality. His official re-
port was received at the State Depart
ment and Is expected to be turned over
to the Department Of Justice for use
in Its prospective suit to confiscate the
vessel.
The Odenwald had taken on coal and
provisions just before starting out OF
the harbor. but Collector Richardson
says she had no unusual quantities
aboard, nor were there any arms or
ammunition.
Some officials think, however, that the
report supports the belief that the dash
to sea was carefully planned and timed
just at the right moment to meet an
other steamship waiting in the ohing.

ports, but Richardson declares that
he personally saw clouds of smoke out
side the harbor as the Odenwald got
under way, and he incloses state

It has been said that this ship was
The German converted cruiser kron-
prinz Wilhelm, and that the Odenwald
made her attempt to get away to carry
her coal and provisions.
The report said investigation after a
fve-inch shell from MORO Castle had
stopped the Odenwald showed that fve
rowboats had been anchored along the
channel. indicating a prearranged plan
to point the way out of the harbor for
the German skipper.
Attorney General Gregory has SAID
that he expects to develop first the civll
case seeking confiscation Of the Oden-
wald before deciding whether to bring
criminal proceedings against the cap
