ton and refrain from business, for
this Monday at least.
New YORK. is facing the first Monday
shutdown of industry as optimistically
as possible. Firms throughout the city
have planned to devote this time, in SO
far AS is possible. to work for which
they otherwise would have to pay extra.
Many business houses are utilizing
the vacation forced upon them by DR..
Garfield in taking stock job that
would have to be done later, anyway.
Many factories are taking this oppor
tunity tor the repair of machinery ne
elected in the recent rush Of business.
Other houses are utilizing the layoff to
do their spring cleaning early.
The loss in wages to workers will be
large. it still appears, but it is never
theless considerably lower than earlier
estimates predicted. Miss Nellie
Schwartz, of the Consumers League,
after an investigation yesterday. said
that the average wage loss would be
less than so per cent.
Some firms have determined to re-
main open on Mondays, even without
coal. The United Cigar Stores Com
pany announced that its stores would
continue business on the legal hol
days" in cold shops.
Other concerns. the majority of
whose workers are paid on time ba-
sis, have made plans to .lengthen hours
during the other five working days, so
that their employees may have the op-
portunity to make up the deficit in their
wages.
Three thousand exemption claims
reached the fuel administration yester-
day. OF these 1875 were granted. New
York is taking its medicine, and viola
tions of the closing order were few.
Only fifty complaints were received
during the day. Nine of these were in
Manhattan, and these were all due to
misinterpre.ation of the order.

CHAPTER VIII.
On the Mountain Road.

The low gray car which carried the
chancellor was on its way through the
mountains. 1t moved deliberately, for
two reasons. First. the chancellor was
afraid of motors. He had horseman's
hatred and fear of machines. Second
he was not of mind to rouse King
Karl from q nights sleep, even to bring
the hand of the Princess Hedwig. His
Intention was to put up at some Inn
in villhge not far from the lodge and
to rea3h Karl by messenger early In
the morning, before the hunters left
for the day.
Then, all being prepared duly and in
order, Mettllch himself would arrive,
and things would go forward with
dignity and dispatch.
The valley of the Ar deepened. The
cliff rose above them, wall broken
here and there by the offtake of mar.
row ravines, filed with forest trees.
There was pause while the chains
on the rear wheels were supplemented
by others in front, for there must be
no danger of a skid. And another
pause, where the road slanted peril.

and caution dictated that the chancel.

SO of dangerous curve afoot.
1t required diplomacy to get him out
But it was finally done, and his heavy
figure, draped in its military cape,
went on ahead, outlined by the lamps
of the car behind him.
He was well around the curve, and
the cliff was broken by wedge of
timber, when a curiously shaped OBJ.
ject projected itself over the edge OF
the bank, and rolling down, lay almost
ut his feet. The lamps brought it into
sharp relief-a man, gagged and tied,
and rolled, cigar shaped, in an auto.
mobile robe.
The chancellor turned, and called to
his men. Then he bent over the bun.
die. The others ran up, and cut the
bonds. What with cold and long In.
action, and his recent drop over the
bank, the man could not speak. One
of the secret service men had flask,
and held it to his lips. An amazing
situation, indeed, increased by the dis.
covery that under the robe he wore
only his undergarments, with sol.
dier's tunic wrapped around his Shout
ders. They carried him into the car
where he lay with head lOlling back,
and his swollen tongue prOtruding.
Half dead he was, with cold and long
anxiety. The brandy cleared his mind
long before he could speak, and he
saw by the uniforms that he was in
the hands of the enemy. He turned
sulkily silent then, convinced that he
had escaped one death but to meet an.
other. Twenty-four hours now he had
faced eternity, and he was ready.
He preferred, however, to die fully
clothed, and when, in response to his
pointing up the bank and to his in
articulate mouthings, one of the secret
police examined the bit of woodland
with his pocket flash, he found pair
of trousers where Milky had left them,
neatly folded and hung over the branch |
