Who's got it?''
THE Chinese woman who was living
in Hammond's house,
A spot of color came for an instant
upon Leslie's cheekbones.
Does she want an awful lot for it?"
Il imagine that she has a very
shrewd idea of its value. l doubt If
ii would be possible to get hold of 1t
except for a very large sum-
Are you going to let me be
hanged?"
There was a little break in her
moving. He had lived in the East
a long time and his sense OF pro-
fessional honor was perhaps not quite
so acute as it had been 20 years be-
fore. He was prepared to do a thing
of which at home the possibility
would never have\ occurred TO him.
But he was an honest man and be.
cause he had made up his mind to
do something which he knew was
unjustifiable he felt duly resentful
against Leslie. She did not know
what she was asking him.
DO you think it's so simple as all
that to secure possession of an un-
welcome piece. OF evidence? It's no
different from suborning a witness
You have no right to make any such

on in the same quiet tones.
But this letter has thrown an en-
tirely different complexion on the case.

sent you in court. take your story

he was astonished to see in Leslie's s
eyes the flicker of a smile.
You re not going to deny that Ham
mond came to your house at your
urgent, and I may even say hysterical,
invitation?"
Mrs. Crosbie hesitated for a moment
and she seemed to consider.
They can prove that the letter was
taken to his bungalow by one of the
houseboys. He rode over on his
bicycle"
You mustn't expect other people to
be stupider than you. The letter will

Mrs. Crosbie gave a shrill cry. She
sprang TO her feet, white and trem-
bling, and her eyes were aghast with
terror.
You don't think they'd hang me?"

jury to bring in a verdict of guilty.,
The charge is murder 1t would be

But what can they prove?" she
gasped.
Il don't know what they can prove.
You know. I don't want to know.
But If their suspicious are aroused
II they begin to make inquiries, If the
natives are questioned-what is 1t that
can be discovered?"
She crumpled up suddenly. She
fell on the floor before he could catch
her. She had tainted. He looked
round the room for water. but there
was none there, and he did not want
to be disturbed. He stretched her out
on the floor and, kneeling beside her,
waited for her TO recover. When she
opened her eyes he was Disconnected
by the terrible fear that he saw in
them.
Keep quite STILL" he said. You'll
be better in a moment"
You won't let them hang me-" she
whispered
She began to cry. Historically, while
IN undertones he sought to quiet her.
For goodness sake pull yourself to-
gether," he said.
Give me a minute"
Her courage was amazing He
could see the effort she made to re-
gain her self-control and soon she
was once more calm
Let me get up now"
He gave her his hand and helped
her to her feet. He took her arm and
led her to the chair. She sat down
wearily.
Don't talk to me for a minute or
two" she said.
Very we'll"
When at last she spoke 1t was to
say something which he did not ex-
pect. She gave a little sigh

URGE WIDENING OF BLACK ROCK BRIDGE City Officials Also Want
 Structure Made Safer
 and Stronger

A conference between Mayor An gelo M. Paonessa, City Engineer Jo. seph D. Williams, Frank L. Conlon, chairman of the board of public works and g representative of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad Co.,, was held in the may prs office this morning at 10 o'clock relative to the widening and rein- forcing the Black Rock bridge on West Main street
 This is a movement that has for a long time been thought necessary because of the increased amount of traffic which passes over the West Main street route making the wid- ening of the bridge desirable. Every few days, the heavy usage by auto mobiles tends to tear up the plank ing and make the span dangerous.
 No decision on the question was reached at this mornings session.
