CHAPTER vIII-contInued.

Shelby visioned all this in his mem ory, questioning his chance Of ever successfully invading such spot with out arousing suspicion. It was plain ly proven by their testimony that Macklin was taking his captive to this spot for safe hiding. He and his In- dian accessories had ridden on, anx- fous to reach this security with as Ift- tie delay as possible. But would Shell by dare to follow? To be sure, except to the Kid, he was unknown, which might make him welcome. Yet the danger of detection was great.
 Apparently, there was no other feasible way in which he could hope to serve Olga. He weighed this. with no conscious thought of himself, cold Iy and deliberately counting the chances, and decided to make the at- tempt.
 Convinced as to his duty, and urged to it by the personal interest he felt in the girl. Shelby cast all hesitancy aside. He would make the attempt: {: fortune had surely favored him thus far, and might again. He went back to where the buckskin waited, mount ed the animal, quiet enough by this time, rode down to the edge of the stream. and sat silently in the saddle while the beast drank. It was a dark, clear night, the stars overhead like lamps in the sky, the air cool and fresh. He turned the pony up the val ley, making no effort to hurry the anil nal, desirOus only at present of keep ing well in the rear of the two horse men ahead. He knew the course they Rould take. must take. up the valley of the Dragoon as far as the great bend. and then across the plateau un- til they reached the Cottonwood. He would simply follow cautiously until daylight, then search for the trail to make sure and endeavor, from some elevation, to pick them up with his field glasses.
 The grass in the valley was thick, but not long. It presented no obstacle to travel, but the horses hoofs made no noise.

Mounted Police Send
Escort to BulIoO1ists
Three Lies11ennnts Are Expect
ed TO Reach Rail,cay Station
by Saturday or SUNDAY

COCHRANE, Ont, Jan. 8. Cana
dian mounted police stationed at
Haileybury announced tonight that a
trained messenger would be sent to
escort the three American naval bal
loonists now making their way, via dog
sled, to an Ontario raihead, after be-
ing missing for nearly three weeks.
The officers, who found refuge at
Moose Factory, on James Bay, after
being lost in the Canadian woods for
four days, are believed to be headed
for either Mattice or Cochrane, on the
Canadian National Transcontinental
Railway.
Barring unfavorable weather condi-
tions, the three men. who are accom-
panied by experienced guides, should
reach the railhead Saturday or Sunday
Their progress is necessarily slow be-
cause of the frozen and snow-swept
trails and the cold weather, which
now registers 80 degrees below zero
in that region.
With the exception OF the message,
which they sent by Indian runners to
Mat.ice, from where it was telegraph ed
to the Rockaway On. W naval air sta
tion, no details Of their flight or res
cue are known here. 1t is assumed,
however, that after abandoning the
balloon and heading for civilization
they came upon trappers. who direct
ed them to the Hudson Bay trading
post at Moose Factory, where they
found shelter.

Hylan's Speech Provides Defense
For Joy Ride i'm One-Man Trolley

Matthew Oechlemann, an airbrake
Inspector on the municipal trolley line
IN Staten Island, who is of literal
turn of mind, believed until last night
that "one-man" trolley car was what
its name implied and that when Mayor
Hylan said in a speech that the Staten
island cars were not the city's but the
peoples, the Mayor knew what he was
talking about.
Matthew's faith was sadly shaken
when detective put his hand OF his
shoulder when he reported for work at
o'clock last night at the car barn in
Concord and informed him that he was
under arrest on a charge Of malicious
mischief. He furnished 81 900 bail at
the Stapleton police court and retired
to his home at 52S Richmond Road
Concord, to mediate upon the
vagaries of nomenclature and rhetoric.
The charge against Matthew was
made by Charles T. Perry, a master
mechanic in the employ Of the DEPART
ment of Plant and Structures, which
has charge of the municipal trolley
line. Perry accused him of taking a
car from the barn at Concord without
permission at 3 o'clock New Years
New-York tribune., 1921-01-04

morning and setting out alone in it
for Port Richmond fifteen miles away.
Perry accused him further OF driv-
ing the car at q reckless pace anC
Crashing into municipal car of the
Silver Lake line four miles from the
barn, damaging both cars to the extent
of more than $500 and placing fifteen
passengers in the Silver Lake car ir
peril of their lives.
Matthew was highly indignant He
was steady-going workingman, he
said. To be sure, he had taken the car
out and hadn't asked any one for per-
mission to 90 SO. Why should he ?
Hadn't he been present at che formal
opening of the city trolley line and
heard Mayor Hylan himself declare in
rotund tones that the cars were not
the city's, but the peoples?
And wasn't he, steady going Matthew
Oechlemann. one of the people, the
prisoner demanded in tones almost as
oratorical as those of the speech-mak-
ing Mayor himself. Malicious mis-
chief, indeed. Why, ever since he
went to work for the city when the
trolley line was opened early in De-
cember he had been taking out a car
every night and riding down to Port
Richmond to get bite TO cat.
"A bite to eat!" echoed the astound-
ed Perry. "why. Port Richmond is q
good fifteen miles from the car BARN"

but there's an awful good restaurant

Tariff Bill Called
U p To-day; Penrose
Seeks TO Bury 1t
Effort ao Keep Measure in
Committee l. Predicted:
Senator Is Brought TO
Chamber i'll Wheel CI,ai1

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-The Ford
ney emergency tariff bill will be taken
up tomorrow by the Senate Finance
Committee at a meeting called by Sem
ator Pcnrose, its chairman, on his re-
turn to-day to the Capitol after an ab-
sence Of more than a year.
The Pennsylvania Senator was ret
icent, but gave every indication Of a
desire to bury in committee the Ford
ney bill, which has passed the House.
Other Senate leaders predicted Senator
Penrose would exert his influence, gen
orally admitted TO be great, to keep the
measure from being returned to the
Senate at this session.
Senator Penrose showed the effects
Of bis long illness, although he ap-
parently felt fit to launch into the ex-
acting duties OF the committee. He ar
rived at the doors of the .enate Cham
Der in wheel chair, but walked to his
seat, although his step was unsteady
and his feet 4 Of height was slightly
stopped. Once seated, he did not rise
10 respond to the greetings OF Senators
as they gathered around him.
There We're other indications aside
from the call of the committee meet
ing that Senator Penrose was actually
back in the harness and expected to be
in frequent attendance at Senate ses-
sions. Carpenters constructed run
ways over rough spots in the subway
connecting the Senate Office building
and the Capitol to make passage OF
his wheel chair more easy.
During his first day at the Capi.
tol the Senator also introduced several
bills and held conferences with half a
dozen Senators. One of the bills pro
posed by Mr.. Penrose would set aside
Armistice Day as national holiday
and another would direct the bringing
back from the battle fields of France
OF the body Of an unidentified soldier
for burial with proper ceremonies in
Arlington National Cemetery
The nature of the conferences held
with other Senators was not disclosed
but it was understood they developed
proposed legislative action. Some Of
the House leaders plan to call on Sen
ator Penrose in the next few days to
discuss with him features OF the Ford
ney tariff bill and other questions Of
tariff and reyenue revision.
