the dark of the passage leading for ward. I....
 "Come here, Gunsaules," I said sternly. "Step lively, lad; there's noth- ing for you to fear. Senor Estada has been killed during the night, and we have just captured his murderer" explained. 'There Is reason to believe this act was part of conspiracy to seize the ship In connection with those fellows amidships. Does that passage lead to their quarters?" ...e
 Tt did once, senor, but now there is closed door of oak, studded with iron, not only locked, but barred on this side. There are but two keys one for the captain and the other for him who commands the buccaneers"
 I stood there moment, considering this information. The only way the mutineers could reach the cabin then would be from the deck, descending through the companion. So long as they remained unaware of the capture of Manuel there was little danger of their taking such action.
 "very we'll, steward" said. ''You go on about your work as though noth- ing had happened. If any word of this affair gets to the crew, or to those fel- lows forward, I'll hold you responsi- ble. You are not to leave this cabin without my permission, nor speak to anyone. LeVere."
 The mulatto faced me respectfully enough, and had feeling he would obey orders, largely because he dare not rebel. ... -s. ..
 "They will be wondering why you are not on deck. It will be better for you to take charge of the watch at once, and keep the men busy. Relieve Watkins at the wheel and send 'the man down to me. He can choose the fellows who will stick better than you could, and then can circulate among them without arousing suspicion"
 Watkins soon shuffled down the steps. He whipped off his cap and stood waiting. .- ....
 I put my hand on his shoulder. 'Tom," said soberly, "we are in the same boat, and understand each other. The chance has come for both of us, if we play the cards right. Listen while I tell you the situation, and what plan doing" ..-..
 I told it briefly, wasting no words, yet relating every fact. He listened eagerly, but without interruption un- til the end. t .-.@
 "What do you make of it?" I asked.
 About what you do, sir. knew there was something of the kind going on-some of the men forward are in on 1t. You've got the ring-leader."
 Manuel you mean. Who did he count on for help in the forecastle"
 "Cochose, and handful of others, niggers and Spaniards, mostly. They meant to pull the affair off either to- day or tonight. Your plan gives us

dozen ships, and with no fighting. It will be fortune for you and me-"
 His somber eyes lighted up, startled by this new idea, and he sprang to his feet.
 "You mean that, senorl We divide what is below and sail for Porto Grandef I hear you right? You not mean surrender? You stay pirateY
 laughed. my nerves tingling to the success of my ruse-he had taken the tempting bait like hungry fish.
 "Why, Of course. I am not such a fool as to throw away this chance. This Is our chance. LeVere. If we put the Namur into Porto Grande, with Sanchez on board and alive, and those hellhounds locked below, we'll get any thing we ask for. We'll be the cocks of the walk. If he shouldn't live through, why then we'll have a ship, and can run the game alone Either way, if we win, the prize is ours-and if we stick together we win" E
 My apparent enthusiasm caught the fellow. could read the working of his mind in his face. This new view of the situation promised wealth, power, the total defeat of Estevan; 1; everything he most desired.
 "You think Senor Sanchez liver"
 "What difference? If he lives he owes his life to us. If he dies the bark is in our hands, and the treasure. Once we have won we care nothing if he live or die. Are we together in this?'
 He thrust out lean yellow hand, and I gripped 1t.
 "Si, senor; I am with you"
 "You pledge your word, Francois?"
 "I pledge it, senor."
 "Good! And you have mine. Now to work-first Manuel Estevan, and then the men on deck" 5. ..'..

fair chance, sir. A dozen good men on deck might do the business"
 'But are there a dozen aboard to be trusted2"
 "Well, yes sir. I rather think there are. I'd say that in both watches there's maybe fourteen to be relied on."
 'In my watch there's Jones, Har- wood and Simms, either English or Welsh. They're all right. Then there's nigger named Sam: Schmitt, a Dutchman, with his partner, whose name don't know, and two Trenches, Ravel and Pierre. That makes eight, nine counting myself. Then in the starboard watch I'd pick out Jim Car ter and Joe Cole, two. Swedes, Carl- son and Ole Hallin, and another mig ger. Then there are a couple of Films who ought to be with us, but can't talk their lingo. That would give us sixteen out of thirty, and it's quite likely some of the others would take a hand with us, if they thought 1t was safe. I haven't any use though, sir, for Francois LeVere. There ain't a worse scamp aboard"
 'T know that" I admitted, "but he had to be used"
 "And what Is my part now?"
 '"This is my watch below, and 1t will be best for me to keep off the deck until all is prepared. You sound these men and get them together; wake up fh4 9n cta x1 oNoA feel sure are all right, and have them slip quietly on deck. Then we'll get these arms in the rack here, and be ready for business-the rest will be done in a hurry. I'll wait here for your report" .@.
 At the very best Watkins could scarcely perform the task assigned him in less than an hour. The success or failure of our effort depended en- tirely upon taking these fellows by complete surprise. If it came to an open fight our cause was hopeless, for that would mean fourteen or fifteen men unarmed, pitted against over a hundred thoroughly equipped and trained fighters. Only by confining them below, with hatcneS Dattened down, and a carronade trained upon them, would we be safe.
 I sat where could watch the stairs, and the entire forward part of the cabin. Gunsaules lowered the table, and began preparing the morning meal. Finally he announced break fast.
 Suppose you rap on the lady's door wonder, and ask if' she will join me. Say your message is from Senor Gates"
 She came at once and seated herself opposite me, and We spoke of the weather while Gunsaules served. He was still lowering about, but my anx- iety to have word with her alone caused me to send him to attend Cap

CHAPTER XIX.
Laying the Tran.


 Our first job was executed much more easily than I had anticipated. We caught Manuel sound asleep, and LeVere had sinewy hands at his throat before the fellow could grasp a weapon. The narrowness of. the state room prevented nay taking much part in the affair, but the mulatto needed no help, as he dragged the cursing Spaniard from his bunk to the deck and throttled him savagely. Indeed he would have killed the fellow had I not interfered and twisted his hands loose, leaving Estevan barely con- scious. A blanket ripped into strips served to bind him securely enough for the present, but I thought 1t best to lock the door, and keep the key in my own pocket. LeVeFe would have knifed him even as he lay there help less, but for my threat and insistence. Once back in the cabin my eyes dis tnguished the frightened face of the steward peering forth at us from out

an unasked question. Before she could frame this in words, the door to the companion opened, and Watkins de- scended the stairs. At sight of her he whipped of his cap.
 'You may speak freely" I said. "This Is the young lady I told you about, and of course she is with us. Only talk low"
 "Yes, sir" using a hoarse whisper, and fastening his gaze on me. 'Tt's all right, sir"
