childlike beseeching. but Raymer with

But at the word she was on her feet

declares that If necessary he will steal to
keep from starving. He holds up Andrew
Galbraith, president of the Bayou State
Security, in his private office and escapes
with 100000 in cash. BY original methods
ne escapes the hue and cry and goes
aboard the Belle Julie as a deckhand. He
unexpectedly confronts Charlotte Farm
ham of Wahaska, MINI, who had seen
MIN cash Galbraith's check in the bank.
Charlotte recognizes Griswold. but de-
cides to write to Galbraith rather than

1t he gathered that the young woman
was lately returned from some Flori-
da winter resort; that her father had
met her by appointment in st. Louis;
and that the two were going on to-
gether; perhaps to Wahaska, since
that was the place name oftenest on
the lips of the daughter.
1t was at this point that the apex Of
Philistine contentment was passed and
the reaction set In. He had been
spending strength and vitality reck-
lessly and the accounting was at hand.
The descent began when he took him
self sharply to task for the high-priced
supper. What right had he to order
costly food that ne could not eat when
the price Of this single meal would
feed family for a week?
After that. nothing that the obsequi-
GUS and attentive waiter could bring
proved tempting enough to recall the
vanished appetite. Never having
known what 1t was to be sick, Girls
void disregarded the warning, drank
a cup Of strong coffee and went out to
the lobby to get a cigar. leaving tis

carefully selected "perfecto" made Sim

RETIREMENT
PREDICTED
Friends Fear Illness
Will Compel His
Resignation
CONSCRIPTION BIG
CABINET ISSUE
Appointment of New
Premier Would Break
Deadlock
RD ED, L. KEEN.

(Stdn Correspondent United Press }
LONDON, Oct. 20.-That Premier
Asqpith's illness will prove so seri-
Gus as to compel his resignation,
ending a virtual deadlock in the
British cabinet, was the growing
belief in some quarters today.
Following the audience granted
by King George, Tue sday, to A.
Bonar Law, colonial minister in the
present coalition cabinet, who, as
a Conservative, certainly would be-
come premier if Asquith. a Liberal,
should retire. his majesty today re-
ceived Sir Edward Carson, who quit
as attorney general out Of dissatis-
faction with the Asquith ministrys
war policy.
These conferences were widely in
terpreted as indicating that n gen
eral cabinet shakeup is at least un-
der consideration.
Though there was no idea that
France was making any suggestions
concerning the British ministry, 1t
was believed also that the matter
may have been indirectly involved
at the cabinet committee meeting
Tuesday with War Minister Nil.
lerand, OF France. and French Min
lister Cambon at which II was taken
for granted the Allies military pol
Icy was discussed.
That Asquith was losing infiu-
ence was generally conceded, many
even OF his friends having openly
come over to the view that. though
capable administrator, the premier
is not the man for. such an emer
gency as the present one.
II was learned IN reliable au
thority today that Sir Edward Car.
sons resignation was his personal
protest against what he considers
the governments drifting, inactive,
undecided policy at the wars most
critical stage.
II is known that he had been
thinking of resignlne for month.
The interesting cabinet deadlock
more generally referred to as a
truce--is over the conscription
question.
The plan the pro-conscriptionists
finally agreed upon provided for
exemption Of all workers engaged
in munition making. general manu-
featuring, exporting, mining or rail-
roading and for districting the
country. compulsion being resorted
to only in districts falling TO furnish
their quotas Of voluntary enlist
ments.
They insisted however, that a bill
TO this effect be formulated imme-
diatoly to avoid loss OF time IL Lord
Derhy's plan for stimulating volun-
tarv enlistments fails
This the anti-conscriptionists re-
fused TO concede.
