"Why. no; not exactly. 1t was the

The major made no reply to this,

CHAPTER XIV
The Oead.llne

We found the three disappointed
afternoon callers. already on hand when
we reached the headquarters. The
boss said, Good evening, gentlemen"
as pleasant as a basket of chips, and
invited the waiting bunch into the
private Office, swapping on the lights
as he opened the door.
No introductions were needed. One
Of the pair Hatch had brought with
him was a lawyer named Marrow.
whose home town was Sedgwick; a
sharp-nosed, ferret-eyed man who fig
ured as one Of the many ''local coun-
sels'' for Red Tower. The other DIED.
mon, was political place-hunter who
had once been sheriff Of Arrowhead
county.
"You've kept US cooling our heels
ein your waiting-room for just about
the last time, Mr.. Norcross |" was the
spiteful way In which Hatch opened
fire. "We've come to talk straight
business with you this trip, and 1t will
be more to your interest than ours
II you'll send your clerk away"
While they had been dragging up
their chairs and sitting down, had
heard Fred May lock up his typewriter
and 60. and had been listening anxi-
ously for some noise that would tell
me TarbeN was on deck. thought
I heard the door Of the outer Office
open again just as Hatch spoke and
It comf0rted me a whole lot.
The boss didn't pay any attention
to Hatch's suggestion about sending
me away; acted as II he hadn't heard
1t. Opening his desk he took a box of
cigars from drawer and passed 1t.
With this concession to the small hos
pitalities the boss swung his chair to
face the trio.
my time Is yours, gentlemen" he
said; and Hatch Jumped in like a man
fairly spelling for fight.
"For six months. Norcross, you've
been moving pretty wide swath out
here In the tall hills. You've been.
posing as little tin god before the
people Of this state, and all the while
you've been knitting and slugging and
black-jacking private capital and pri-
vate business wherever and whenever

While they were doing It the boss
stood aside with Mr.. Van Britt. and
heard what was said. Mr.. Van Britt
began 1t BY saying. I'VE don't need
any detectives this time. You are on
your way to Strathcona to put crimp

enough to tell others. and the word

then: How did you happen to be
here on that engine, Upton?"
I've been ahead Of you all the way

reply. Il thought 1t might be safer

The boss turned on him like a flash.

Mr.. Van Britt gritted his teeth q
little. but he told the truth.
Eyes; q friend Of ours tipped me

course, but just In general way"
The break was repaired and the
men were taking the tools back to
the engine. AZ we turned to follow
them, Mr.. Norcross said: "Just one
more question. Upton. Did your wire
come from the capitaIf"
But at this Mr.. Van Britt seemed
TO forget that he was talking to his
general manager.
.It's none of your id business

and that ended 1t.
Notwithstanding the slow run and
the near-disaster on Slide mountain
we had our meeting with the Strath'
coma mine owners the following morn.

trim served its purpose, anyway. The
boss met the miners good bit more
than halfway, and gave them their
relief-and the Hatch-owned smelter

traffic department would make an ore
tariff to the Independent snelter on
the other side Of the range low enough
to protect the producers.
It was nearly three O'Clock in the
afternoon before we got away for the
return to Portal City.

MENARD LINE EXTENSION

Members of the Bozeman chamber
of commerce held a conference with
officials of the Milwaukee railroad
Tuesday afternoon at which time the
matter Of construction of the Men
ard extension line was discussed.
The matter was gone over very
thoroughly at this conference, and
the necessity of the line was agreed
to by every one present. 1t was stat
ed by the officials that at this time
it is impossible for them to consider
this extension, or in fact, any raj
road construction. They agreed, how
ever that they would give the Men
ard line first consideration over any
other construction which may be
started later on. When conditions
arrive whereby the Milwaukee car
take up again the building of ex-
tensions and other improvement, il
lis their intention to do this work al
the earliest possible moment.

ish Friday evening when the umpire
stopped it in the Elks half Of the
ninth owing to the darkness. The
score was IA to when the last in

Elk's, and this was the official score
given out.
Excitement ran high during every
inning of this game, there being ex-
ira interest in it as the deciding one
Of the season for the title = and
friends of each team were there in
great number. 1t was the largest
crowd that witnessed a game this
season. The roofing was at times
deafening and the cheers from the
sidelines kept the players on their
toes at every moment.
There was some fine baseball dis
played as well as some mighty poor
playing, at times, while all through
the playing was such as to give every
patron all the thrills desired. AS one
of the. rooters stated, big league
