strode into the room. He switched on
the light and went directly to the
couch, Alan followed him.
"He's-deadf"

first as to the. answer to his question.

asked. "There iised to be wheelsman

He turned to Constance. you're

Alan followed them to the door and
closed 1t after them. He spread the
blankets over Luke. Luke's coats,
which Alan had removed, lay upon a
chair, and he looked them over for
marks Of Identification. A side pocket
produced an old briar; there was moth
Ing else. Then Alan walked restless
ly about, awaiting Spearman. Spear
man, he believed. knew this man
modified denial until he was certain
that the man was dead; and then he
had answered so as not to commit
himself, pending learning from Con-
stance what Luke had told.
But Luke had said nothing about
Spearman. 1t had been Corvet, and
COrvet alone. Of whom Luke had
spoken; 1t was Corvet whom he had
accused; it was Corvet who had given
him money. Was 1t conceivable, then,
that there had been two such events in
Corvet's life? That one of these
events concerned the Miwaka and
Spearman and some one-some one
with a bullet hole above the eye
who had "got" Corvet; and that the
other event had concerned Luke and
something else? 1t was not conceiva.
BILE, Alan was sure; 1t was all one
thing. If Carvet had to do with the
Miwaba, then Luke had had to do with
1t too. And Spearman? But II Spear
man had been involved in that guilty
thing, had not Luke known 1t? Then
why had not Luke mentioned Spear
man? Or had Spearman not been real
ly involved? Had it been, perhaps
only evidence Of knowledge of what
Corvet had done that Spearman had
tried to discover and destroy?
Alan went to the door and opened

steps again. Spearman waited only

BEVERIDGE WANTS
CAPITAL SET FREE
Links Prosperity With Repub-
lican Congress in Opening
Ohio Campaign.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Oct. 3.-Albert J..
Beveridge, Indiana's Republican Senato-
rial nominee. opened the campaign OF
his party in Ohio with a speech to-day.
Mr. Beveridge spoke at the request
of President Harding and in his opening
remarks he declared that the President $
Administration has made progress "un-
equaled and unapproached during the
same time by that of any other existing
Government" He added that 'until
prosperity is fully restored Republican
Congress is as indispensable as a Re-
publican President.
Mr.. Beverldge suggested that to
bring about an era Of prosperity capital
must be allowed to flow as freely as
possible into the channels of productive
industry and that transportation must
be made as ample. speedy and lnexpen-
slve as possible and it must be continu-
Gus and uninterrupted"
The sound principle OF Government
regulation Of nationwide business ac-
tivties." said Mr.. Beveridge, lis that
exploitation of the people shall be pre-
vented, but during the Wilson regime
this sound principle Of Government
regulation was extended TO the point Of
Governmental interference with the most
minute details of transportation and
trade. of production and exchange.
Working on the theory that most busi-
ness men are scoundrels at heart, with
no idea Of serving the public, but intent
only on robbing the public, the Wilson
regime enacted restrictive laws, estab-
lished meddling bureaus and did every
thing that anybody could think of to
burden business and hamper commerce.
"A Republican President and Con-
gress have made some necessary altera-
tons in this antl-business and prosperity
paralyzing Wilsonian national tax sys-
tenn and still further steps In the same
direction will be taken until business Is
50 relieved that industry and trade can
once more go forward freely and at full
vigor"
AS means OF relieving the transporta-
tion situation Mr.. Beveridge declared
that the national agreements" made
by William G.. McAdoo with the railway
labor unions should be abolished and
that the Railroad Labor Board should
also be discontinued.
American transportation must be
freed from the iron band OF artificial
and arbitrary Governmental direction
and placed once more under the control
of economic law" he added.
