from the Washington Limited to reach
the street and spring into a taxi.

They arrived at the Plaza in less
than ten minutes. Mr.. Fischer tipped
the driver lavishly, suffered the hall
porter to take his bag, returned his
greeting mechanically, and walked

He held up the strips with shaking

to the lift, and entered his rooms.

Van Teyl went out to the telephone.
Fischer slipped his champagne and
crumbled up, his bread. his eyes fixed
a little dreapily on the gray river.
He was already conscious of the glow
of the wine in his veins. The sensa-
ton was half pleasurable, In a sense
distasteful to him. He resented this
artificial humanity. He had the feel
ing of a man who has stopped to be
doped by Quack doctor. And he was
a little afraid.
His young companion returned tri-

She moved uneasily in her chair.
Almost unconsciously the man himself
seemed somehow associated with hia'

more tolerant place In her thoughtsy
Perhaps there was some measure OF
greatness about him after all. The
strain of waiting for the papers be-
came almost intolerable. At last the
