servants telephone below srairs. Part of that guarded conversation was car ried on by Wrench, the new footman. and much of it had to do with the very situation so disturbing the aged million aire in the room above. For it was Le- gar explaining that masked stranger ct the last moment had snatched the girl from their hands and had apparent ly carried her of to some hiding place of his own. This was followed by the command to deliver still another mes sage to EnOch Golden, with the final warning that every wire leading into the Golden house must be cut as soon as possible.
 The new footman- in obedience to these orders, quietly traced out the telephone circuits to the basement and there severed the wires with a pair of scissors purloined for the purpose from Mile. Celestine's workbag. Then. watching his chance, he carefully penned a note, wording it as Legar had duly instructed him to do. Then he returned to the neighborhood of the library door. with his ferretlike alert ness masked under his customary i'm mobility of face.
 It was not until his restless master discovered the telephone wires to be dead, and went storming through the house to determine the reason for this fca1 q hoA N-vOnOh his chance had come. Slipping into the deserted library on the pretext of adjusting the rugs. he stepped before the rosewood table. hesitated a mo- nent, and then lifted the heavily chased lid of Golden's cigar case and dropped the note inside. A moment later he had left the room, unobserved and unsuspected.
 It did not take many minutes of waiting to confirm the wisdom of Wrench's movement. For Enoch Gold en, striding restlessly hack into his library, sank with sigh of weariness into the armchair beside the rosewood table For a moment or two he stared abstractedly and unhappily about him. Then, with still another sigh. he reached out and lifted the heavily chased lid of silver. His fingers, in- stead of coming in contact with per {ecto corrected in gold. rustled against Q sheet of paper. Automatically he picked it up and unfolded it.
 A Written on that mysterious sheet he found the following:

SIXTH EPISODE
THE SPOTTED WARNING

Enoch Golden had never formed the habit of taking others into his conf dence. And when events came into his life which seemed to leave him more and more dependent on his i'm mediate associates he betrayed an oc- casional tendency to focus his neb- ulous resentment against that situa- ton on the exasperatingly imperturb- able figure of David Manley.
 Young man." he said, fixing his sec retary with a steely eye, q came to this decision twenty long years ago, and nothing is going to change it. That woman was sent from my home, and she win never enter it again"
 Manley, looking down at the note still held in his hand. thought of the troubled and tear-stained face of the girl who had so recently clung to his arm and asked him to plead her cause. And the memory of Margery Golden brought fresh courage to him.
 But this woman who was once your own wife is only asking for a glimpse of her own daughter again. Surely that is asking little enough!"
 And I repeat that I won't allow it. I have savec zny daughter from the dangers that woman's wrong surround ed her with. have saved her from"
 Have you?" interrupted Manley. de- liberately meeting tho older mans stare
 Any retort the older man was about to utter remained unspoken, for at that moment a soft-treading footman entered the room and crossed to the desk with a salver of mail in his hand. Manley. looking up. eyed that servant resentfully, and with touch of sus- picion. This intruder, he promptly surmised, was a new figure in the household retinue.
 Be so good as to knock when you enter this room,' was the young secre- tary's sharp command.
 Very good, sir" answered the new footman, scarcely raising his eyes.
 "Hhi" Golden scoffed, looking up from the letter which he had just opened. Since you're so ready to ask favors. here's another friend to ask them for. Here's the captain of the circle you're so ready to champion! But instead of asking favors you see, be demands themi"
 He tossed the folded sheet angrfly across the desk top. Manley took it up and read it.
 "Your happiness hangs on one small scrap of paper. That paper is the portion of the Windward island chart

and hand it to the man in the black ulster who will be waiting there. No trickery can succeed. And this is your last chancel JULES LEGAR."
 Silently the beaten man stared down at this strange missive. Slowly as he did so. the last of his once iron will melted away.
 He rose heavily from his chair and crossed to the vault From this vault he took the map, the time-yellowed square of manilla about which so many of the sorrows and troubles of all his life seemed to revolve Then. calling for his hat and coat and ordering a car, he tremblingly made ready for his midnight visit of equalization to the Central Tower building.
 While these events were taking place, however, there was one member of the Golden household who remained far from inactive When David Man Icy so abruptly left tranquil bunga low at Cedarton and so stealthily pushed his way through the shrubbery surrounding that bungalow, it was be- cause he had made the sudden dis coyery that Legar himself was in the neishborhOod Nor was it hard for him tO guess the reason for that mas ter-criminaIs invasion of those seques- tered grounds.

She remembered, as the masked man at her side helped her in through an ivory-white door, turning dazedly to him and asking who he was. And she remembered the smile that showed just beneath the fringe Of the yellow domino as he shook his head and the sense of deprivation that swept through her as she found her self once more alone. Then from the same door through which the Laugh ing Mask had stepped, she remen- bered, she had seen quiet-eyed wom- an come out, . quieteyed woman who had crept up to her, with tears well ing from her eyes and smile of pity ing tenderness about her lips.

And ag she stared up into that mOtEerly faoe, bent 50 close over her own. she had said, with a gasp Of bewilderment, "Are you-you the Laughing Mask?'

All his thoughts. as he climbed franticaily up through the broken tower window, were revolving about the problem as to whether or not he was too late.

GOLD COMING FAST
INTO UNITED STATES
Influx May BE Doubled Before Move
mcnt Ceases. Worlds Record
Made.

Special to The World
CHICAGO, July 2S.-The movement
OF gold to the United States in the last
Is months makes new record, not
only for this country, but for any
other, excepting that England may
have received from her own South
African mines approximately as large
an amount Of fresh gold in the SINH
lar period. That represents however,
no more than a movement from her
own mines to her own banks, whereas
the present movement reflects the
mastery of the United States for time
being over world trade and none
tary conditions.
Since January /, 1915, somewhat
moro than $500, 100000 in gold has
been sent to the United States and
the influx of the yellow metal con-
tinues. There are predictions that the
United States will receive much more
before the movement ends Although
some financial authorities profess
themselves to be 4 little concerned
lest too little of this gold is used for
commercial or trade purposes, or else
lest there be gold initiation, neverthc-
less that does not seem to be the
opinion Of the federal reserve board at
Washington.
