step approaching him, growing
more and more distinct as it
came closer! He felt a strange
presence moving near him! An
arm was stretched out! A hand
fell on his shoulder! That hand
clutched his flesh with an irres-

spoken by a voice which, beyond
mistake, was the human and liy-
ing voice of Arsene Lupin!

HOLLAND MAY
KICK KAISER
INTO GERMANY
Believed Former Emperor May
Become Center of Reaction
When Revolution Quiets

London, Nov. 19.-The rumor that
William Hohenzollern will return to
Germany has caused stir here. The
fear has been that the kaiser sooner Or
later would become the center of re-
action in Germany when the present
revolutionary storm has blown over. On
the other hand the fact of the former
ruler placing himself or being placed
in the hands of the new rulers of Ger
many would be welcomed in other
quarters. f}.
These rulers, the Morning Telegraph
contends, would be able to execute JUS
tice upon him. There is everywhere
agreement that the ex-emepror's pres
ence in Holland is intollerable and
that he must be placed in a position
where he will be powerless to do fur
ther mischief. There are demands at
The Hague that he be deported. LIS
