Then in a few days letters began to

Mairum Aluminium company opened

He had in his possession the pro-

But the woman, from whom he had
kept the sordid story Of his past, did
not cry when she learned what had
happened. She did not even weep
when she stood before Judge Marshall
Brown recently and begged for her
husband. The rings which she had
once worn were stripped from her
slender fingers. Her savings, too, had
gone to pay back what her husband

Brown explained it would have been
possible to parole him, but behind the

CHAPTER TX

A quick clean-up! This, in poIice
and newspaper parlance, is the phrase
which describes rapid action, quick
solution of a case, and landing the
prisoner in cell. In the four-word
terseness OF the sentence is the high
est praise, the greatest encomium
that can be given a police officer.
Captain McMann had made one of the
quickest clean-ups in the history of
New York crime. Eight hours after

was in CELL
The police captain was the last wit
ness called. He tolo of the all-night

again yesterday. I had an idea some
one might have gotten the waiter
drunk and have stolen the recommen-

warmly. But this guy talked! He
told us about doing the job and not

problemist he would have seen real

trace of it in his tone as he asked the
next question: Have you learned the

Not yet, but we'll get it before

Before the captain had left the
stand, the reporters had disappeared
in search of telephones and members
of the coroner's jury crowded for
ward to shake the hand of the police
captain and congratulate him. Why
coroner's jury should do such a
thing is one of the higher mysteries;
but it is characteristic OF all 1urymen
to congratulate some one. Prisoner

In fact, there seemed a bit of pride in
his manner as he glanced down at the
long table with its rows of newspaper
men; as though each new twist to the
case was of his own devising. There
came a glow of professional pride as
he realized that this case would spread
his name all over the country. He
handed the note to the jurymen, and
they read it one by one, nodding wise
