THIRD INSTALLMENT
CHAPTER III.

The death of Helel's father dis closed at once the serious weakness of his monetary affairs. He had de- Veloped his valuable railroad proper ties without capital of his own ade- Quate to finance them. He was the nominal head of great transportation projects; he had been, in truth, the brain and energy of these, but the ac- tual control belonged to eastern bank CTS who had supplied the funds to put them through. And with General Holmes death his daughter was brought face to face with this fact.
 In the library of her home the attor- neys for the estate were already gath cred to discuss it's affairs. Amos Rhinelander, her fathers faithful friend-indeed, the sole friend among the generals many associates that now manifested the slightest interest in the fate of his unfortunate daughter was present that morning. With him, however, as if to offset the benefit Of his presence, was his already criminal. lg NOulIi OAu4oCu nSpACMs 0S1Sl uC-
 Helen, who had been summoned to the library. walked down from her room to join the little company.
 To Seagrue, who. in apprehension, had absented himself since the night of the tragedy, she never had looked so pleasing as she now did.
 Much was in Seagrue's mind and something of it all reflected itself in his face. A score of times his un- principled recklessness had led him close to criminal lengths; now, it had carried him from a simple suggestion of theft, unscrupulously assented to, to robbery and to murder-the murder of General Holmes himself by Capelle's hired tools. He was as yet too new ir his path of crime to feel indifferent to the fearful consequences.
 Where he stood unobserved by the others, he took out of a wallet drawn from his pocket a cuff cut from a shirt and reread a scrawl written on it by Spike. his convict accomplice, advis- ing him that the stolen survey was hidden under the south end of Little San Pablo bridge
 With some trivial excuse for absent ing himself, Seagrue left the house,

 Capelle, who had arrived on Sea grue's peremptory summons, at the ap- pointed place, some distance from the jail, awaited Seagrue there with a grin: Some expedition you've em- parked on!"
 Seagrue was in no mood for joking. "One you showed me into. he retort- cd surlily. He curtly told his confed- crate what had occurred. Then he drew from his overcoat pocket Spikes handful of dough, showed it to Ca belle and explained what it was. Have a key made tonight from this impres- sion; meet me here tomorrow with it."
 The following afternoon Seagrue was again at the jail-this time. os- tensibly, to visit Hyde. Passing Spikes cell, dust coat hanging some what ostentatiously from his arm, Sea grue paused to greet him. In doing this to took occasion to lay his fin gers on one of the bars of the cell door; as he said good morning the new key dropped from his hand inside the barred door. Spikes foot at once GOV cred it. Moving on, Seagrue let fail from his arm one of the two dust coats which he was in reality carrying. Spike, dropping like cat on his knee, whipped the fallen garment swiftly in between the bars, and while Seagrue and the taller remained with Hyde. Spike made a rapid change Of clothing
 Slipping into the dust coat he found in one of the pockets a cap and pair of goggles thoughtfully slowed. And watching his chance for the corridor to be empty, he cautiously unlocked his cell door. peered out and swung

Arthur Gaylord, Superintendent C.
 R. & T. R. R.:
 Dear Gayi The bearer, Miss Helen Holmes, wants work. Anything you can do will be appreciated. R."
 Though her resolution had heen taken. it seemed to require aii ot Helen's courage to make the actual start on the path she had chosen. She reached the superintendent office at Beaman next day, after wandering all over the yards to find it, almost fright. ened out of her undertaking.
 Gaylord, the superintendent, me; her with a consideration that dis pelled her fears. In few words he spoke feelingly of her father. and after asking what she would like to try, gave her a note to the agent at Sig, nal station, assigning her for cleri cal work due to the cutoff construc tion, already under way there.
 George Storm, the freight engineer had not seen Helen since the funeral of her father-which he had lain of to attend-nor had he heard of her He was east-bound at Beaman one morning, comparing orders with his conductor. when he saw Helen in her severely plain black about to board the local passenger train which was to take her to Signal to begin work.
 The engineer hastened to her She met his utter astonishment-when she had told him what she was doing and why-without embarrassment or con. fusion, only laughing a little at his concern.
 But when, questioning her further Storm learned of the cutoff opera tions, now begun-nOt alone by the Tidewater people. but as well by their rivals-the Colorado & Coast line his suspicious were aroused and he disclosed them to Helen without re serve. That Colorado & Coast crowd are running our people a hot race on the cutoff construction They know something about that original survey-they must-or they would never start in so far"
 Helen smiled incredulously. ''l think that could hardly be, Mir Storm You know the men building now

 The Coast & Colorado line back CTS showed all of their aggressive ness in their new undertaking. Head quarters for their cut-off work were set up not stones throw from Sig nal station where Helen had gone to work. Nor was energy the only mani festation of their spirit. The keen rivalry of the endeavcr to reach tho Superstition range with a line first extended even to tho construction crews. and as the work progressed the foremen would hesitate at nothing to delay or embarrass their opponents in the race.

 In Helen's home two days practi- cally completed the rapid tragedy Of her changed circumstances. Her maid, whom she told she could no longer keep, had gone in tears-and the coan- try seat as well as the town house had been given over with furnishings to creditors. Vans stood backed up in the front driveways and the library itself. scene of her -cruelest misfor- tunes. was being dismantled by nov ing men on the morning that Rhine lander pet her there for the last time to discuss her future.
 You are stubborn he insisted, taking her hand tenderly. ''I like in dependence-anybody does. 1t is gritty; it is American and it's all right in it's place. But under such cir cumstances as these you should come with me, as l want you to, to my home. You will be a welcome daughter to my wife and to me. You know we are unhappily childless. Your father would have wished this; ny wife has asked it of you as l do now. Why persist in refusing us?

 Rhinelander felt he could say no more. They discussed other things for a time and sine then conhded to him her plans for making start Nothing in all the rapid events of the fortnight had seemed to him more ,ragicaI than this resolve that his old friends daughter had so resoluteiy taken.

 The agent had gone over to the camp. and it was this message that caught Helen at Signal. alone in the office. She picked up the receiver as the telephone bell rang, listened to the excited operator and wrote his hurried words down on a pad:
 Runaway powder cars on fire. En- gineer Storm on them. Ditch at first spur"
 She dropped her pencil as she fn- ished, breathless with shock. Then pulling her wits together she cast about for help. She was quite alone.
