Diplomatic Circles Curious to Know
Whether He Is Secret Peace
Emissary

Washington, Feb. 7-Plans which
President Wilson may have looking
to the eventual termination OF the
European war were the subject OF
much speculation among foreign dip
lomats today as a result OF the arriv'
al In London Of Col. Il. NJ. House,
intimate friend OF the President, on
a tour of the capitals of Europe.
At the White House 1t was stated
that Mr.. House was not authorized
to carry on any negotiations for
peace while in Europe, though the
President naturally expected to learn
much of interest about the diplomat
lc situation there when Colonel
House returned in the spring.
Colonel House bears a letter say
ing he is the personal and unofficial
representative OF President Wilson
so that Americans In charge of va

CHAPTER II.


I'm voyage.
The great liner Anne of Austria lay
In her slip at the dock, her giant
pulses just throbbing now and then
Everywhere men and women were
hurrying to and fro in the customary
orderly confusion OF the last few mo-
ments before the departure of an
ocean steamer.
Calmly Kitty Gray passed on her
way to the boats office and asked for
her mail and her keys.
AS she turned, she almost stumbled
against man who had just hurried
aboard-a dark man, thickset, foreign
in appearance. She had the strange
conviction that she had seen him be-
fore
Then she turned to settle herself
down in her quarters. So far as she
knew, she had not an acquaintance
on the boat.
Now, oddly enough, she recalled the
face OF the stranger, the dark-visaged
foreigner whom she had met at the
ships office. Surely 1t must have been
the same man who had handed her
her package when she dropped 1t In
the little antique shop! Why should
he be on board this boat? Why should
he recognize her, remember her-for
he had! Trust woman to know that
he had-he did. Yes, he had known
her. Again cold feeling of appre-
hension clutched at Kitty Gray's stout
little heart.
She rose and tried to fling off her
depression by means of visit to the
dining saloon. But for some reason
she felt she would be more comfort
able-or safe-in her own room.
Here she lay down upon the single
berth, which was directly beneath the
portfolio.
why-woke with her eyes staring,
passing in her instant from sleep to
waking.
A face was looking in upon her! A
man had been looking at her, or try
ing to look at her, as she lay asleep.
Kitty GrayS instinct spoke 10 ner
some message-she could not tell
what Swiftly she caught the chamois
bag from her bosom, and, emptying its
main treasures into her hand, placed
them in that other treasure house OF
woman-her stocking. Again feeling
the drowsiness invoked by the fresh
salt air, at length she lay down once
more upon the little couch and re-
signed herself more comfortably to
slumber
But again she woke-this time it
was with a scream of terror. She
had felt the touch of hand. Some
thing had tugged at her neck.
She raised her hand. The cham
ois bag was gone-it was the jerk
of the broken silk cord that had

awakened her! And there was the
hand that had done it, strong. dark
hand, fuIl-veined, hairy. 1t still
clutched the bag-it still was visible
at the portfolio. A ribbon end had en-
tangled itself for just an instant in the
portfolio fastening-an instant long
enough for Kitty to see what had been
the hand that had committed this rob-
berry.
But who was the robber himself?
Quick as thought Kitty sprang to the
door, ran down the deck. out the next
deck door. The band was giving its
first saloon concert, and the decks
we're sparsely tenanted, 1t seemed. Far
off towards the bow a man was pass
ing-what man she could not say. He
seemed neither to hurry nor to linger.
She could not make out who II was,
dared not hang upon him her own sus-
picion.
She turned to the captain now and
made report of what had happened
not once but twice; but even as she
went she smiled grim!y to herself. The

fair enough to look upon. for suddenly,
as he passed. he stared at her direct

smiled.

The rug in the hall was turned over
at one corner-was it by accident?
The pictures all hung on the walls,
yet several were askew. and-the lit

asked whimsically.

chamois bag was worthless-it had
held only a kerchief, a bit of powder
pun, perhaps little silver-nothing
more. Her real treasures-she knew
where they were now.
The captain was outraged at what
he learned when at length she gained
admittance to his cabin. With marine
precision, he acted at once. From
that time on all through the voyage, a
boat detective stood at each end Of the
passageway which led to Kitty's state
room.
No trace Of any other robbery could
be found. nor any clue by which the
intruder could be identified.
