Would increase Po1icernen's Power

One other point that should be men
toned 10 that whatever member of
the police farce is in charge of traffic
should not have his power limited by
orders from any police captain, and
it would be better If he were made
an inspector.
The choice of the proper man to
regulate traffic is most, important
for. to do Justice to the work. he must
not only have experience, hut, 1what
is of still more Importance, he must
have the kind of mind to enable him
to visualize traffic. and he must be
let alone as to details and given full
power and no duties but traffic man
agement.E
Traffic management is a speciality
and almost an exact science. and has
become far the most Important, duty
Of a police department..

 "A small boat, senor-a dory, make it."
 "Cut the rope and send 1t adrift. Now come along with me-"
 The darker loom of the sloop van ished slowly, as tile slight current sweeping about tho end of the wharf drifted the released boat to, which clung outward into the bay. There was scarcely ripple to the sea, and vet I felt that the boat Was steadily :. drifting out into deep water. l was still strangely weak, barely able to re- tain my grasp. Finally I mustered every ounce of remaining energy in one supreme effort and succeeded in dragging my body up out of water over the boats stern, sinking helpless ly forward into the bottom.

My other injuries were merely bruises to add to my dis comfortable result of blows dealt me by Sanchez and Cochose, aggravated by the bearlike hug of the giant ne gro. Indeed, I awoke to the discov- cry that I was far from being 6 dead man; and, inspired by this knowledge, the various incidents of the night flashed swiftly back into my mind.
 No gleam of light appeared in any direction; no sound echoed across the dark waste of water.

ms wounus, the glanu negro, thor oughly aroused, exerted his mighty muscles, and, despite my utmost effort at resistance, thrust me back against the stern rail, where the weight of his body pinned me helplessly. With a roar of rage he drove his huge fist into my face, but happily was too close to give much force to the blow. My own hands, gripping the neckband of his coarse shirt, twisted it tight about the great throat until, in desperation, panting for breath, the huge brute actually lifted me in his arms and hurled me backward headlOng over the rail. l struck something as fell, yet rebounding from this splashed into the deep water and went down so nearly unconscious as to make not even the slightest struggle. And yet came up once more to the surface, arising by sheer chance directly be- heath the small dory-which my body must have struck as I fell-towing by a painter astern of the sloop, and for tunately retained sense enough to cling desperately to this first thing my hands touched, and thus remained con- cealed.
 The dory caught in some current, f1oated at the very extremity of its slender towline, and in consequence the sloop appeared little more than mere smudge, when my eyes endeav- ored to discover it's outlines. Evi- dently the bloody work lad been com pleted, for now all was silent on board. Then came the voice of EStada in gruff inquiry:
 "So you are hiding here, Cochose? What are you looking for in the sea?"
 "What? Why that Id English man. Mon Dieu! He fought me like a mad rat.''
 "The Englighman, you say? He was here then? It was he you battled with? What became of the fellow?"
 "He went down there, senor. The dog stabbed me three times. It was either he or I to go."
 "You mean you threw him over board"
 "Ay, with his ribs crushed in, and not d breath left in his Id body. He's never come up evcn--Tve watched and there has not been so much ;iI q ripple where he sank"

All was black, hopeless; with head buried in my hands I sat on a thwart, dazed. Before me, pleading, expres- sive of agonized despair, arose the sweet face of Dorothy Fairfax. No doubt by this time all was over-the dead body of Sanchez discovered, the projected attack on the house carried out, the two old men left behind, ei- ther dead or severely wounded, and the girl borne off helpless prisoner. Ay, but this knew; there was only one place to which the villains might flee with their booty-the Namur of Rot terdam. Only on those decks and we'll at sea would they be safe or able to enjoy their spells.

San chez had turned slightly and stood with his face toward the bay l ven tured cautious step forward and stood on the open sand, scarcely a yard to his rear. Some vague sense of my presence must have influenced the man. for he swung suddenly apout, uttering stifled cry of startled sur prise, as we met face to face. For all instant we were locked so closely within each others desperate grip, his head bent beneath my arm, with my fingers clutching at his throat to block any call for help, that he possessed no knowledge Of his assailant's identity. But the man was like a tiger. The surprise of attack was to my advan- tage, yet almost before I realized what was being done he had rallied, broken my first hold, and his eyes were glar- ing straight into mine. Then he knew me, his free hand instantly grasping at his knife. Even as he jerked if forth 1 crushed his wrist within my fingers, forcing his forearm back. There was no Outcry, no noise, except that of our heavy breathing and tram bling feet.
