CTS last night before dinner. Graing- CT told us he was not in the library between yesterday noon and nher Parados was found. He lied again. I've got him this time," and Sanluels shook the boot exultantly.
 T compliment monsieur" Flique said with a bow. But there is this Lum We-'
 'Lum We hated Parados," Sam uels interrupted. You know that. He and Grainger made that double ahbi up between them. Lum We stole and broke the phoenix and Grainger killed Parados. Lum We and Grainger are the birds we want. 1 I'll soon shake Grainger's motive out of him "Ah. his motive, my friend" At that instant shot rang out in the house behind us. For moment we stood rigid. Then Flique bounced onto the grass and in couple of jackrabbit leaps arrived at the kitchen door. Samues and I were behind him. We heard scream in the hall and we found Manning with her arms wound around Miss Jahries, who was staring into the library with the mortified expression of one who has stumbled onto d tomb.
 Grainger lay on his back on the hearth with hole in his back The fire, which he had just light ed, began to crackle.
 Grainger had died with look of astonishment shattering the dignity Of his expression. The match with which he had kindled the fire had burned down to his thumb and finger, which still held it.
 The order of burned powder vas distinctly noticeable.
 I'm wrong again, Flique," Sam uels said.
 It was as touching d confession oG human faIlibility as I ever heard.
 Mrs. Parados pushed in from the hall. Kirk, and Gridley, a county de- tective Ross had left behind, pressed rn through the patio window, which was wide open, and a low cry brought my eyes 10 the west Uin- dow. Caroline stood there, the win- dow open at her back.

AS Grainger shut the door behind him, Ross got up.
 We haven't made a great deal of headUay," he said. to Samuels You'd better give Granger your attention. Don't bully him, or he won't tell you anything"
 I'm not sure Lum We isn't our man. Samuels replied doggedly.
 Johns and l drifted outside.
 "A fine fellow. Granger Profess sor Johns observed. T shouldn't like 10 think he had anything 10 do with the murder of his master"
 He hadn't" l retorted with con- viction.
 Ross and the coroner left shortly and the newspaper reporters went with them. The inquest was to be the next afternoon. Parados' body was taken up to the bedroom he had occupied.
 Miss Jahries prepared lunch, which Manning presently announc- ed The meal was a wretched af- fair. and we were glad to escape from the table.
 l commandeered Caroline again and we spent the rest of the after noon on the slope.
 It was nearly o'clock, and quite dark when we returned to the house. After Caroline left me I wandered

 Shuddering, I went around to tile north side of the house. To my re- lief, I found Flque on the little ter race
 You come with q weariness," he chuckled. Has the little made moiselIe walked you too far"
 No I said candidly. T could walk all day with Caroline" ''Ah, it is Caroline already" and Fllque wagged 8 finger at me. That is good! But you come with a veari- ness. Why is thiso'
 That Gut gets on my nerves,' I exclaimed. Haven't you hit upon anything yet?" Monsieur S impatient. It will be first the little mysteries-and then the big mystery"
 "Precisement," Flique murmured. "As you say, that is settled"
 His casual air irritated me. Aren't you interested?" l demand ed.
 Monsieur" he said reprovingiy. T have q problem But what is this?" he continued, recovering his amiability.
 Samuels was hurrying toward us, carrying what appeared to be vad- ing boot. He presented the sole of the boot to Flique's inquiring eyes and illuminated 1t with an electric torch.
 Look at that" he said terseIy.
 A little patch of solidified crude oil adhered to the instep, and en- bedded in it were flores of a bluish material.
 Monsieur has the sharp eye, Flique murmured admiringly. And this enormous boot, it is whose" ?"
 "Grainger's." Samuels exclaimed. T found 1t in the garage. Jahries said that the stain was not on the library carpet early yesterday after noon It was there last night. These flores were pulled out of the carpet. | I've just talked to Jahries again. She said Grainger was wearing his Wad-

 It lay on its side at the end O! 1 the writing table nearest the fre- place, the receiver off the hook.

TARIFF BODY WILL.
 HAVE STERN TASK
New Commission Must Check All
 Revenue From Imports

Washington. Sept. 13. Chair man Henry P. Fletcher and other new members of the United States tariff commission will face a task probably uneaualled in the commits sion's history when they take office September 16.
 Stripped of verbal plumage, the commissions job consists of de- tcrmining how much revenue all articles imported in the last three years would Have yielded had the ad valorem rates of the new tariff act been effective, and what scale Of import duties would have yielded the same revenue shad they been assessed on tie American rather than the foreign valuation of those products.
 Congress called it an "evalua tion' project in ordering the inves- tigation and set July 1, 1923, as the date on which the commission vas to report. The purpose is to determine the feasibility of adopt ing domestic basis for ad valorem duties.
 The items involved run into hun dreds of thousands, on each of which the weighted average value of all the, days of all the years will have to be found before a list of comparative duties can be evolved.
 The fkent system of collecting ad valoreh duties has been as- sailed and defended on various theories, the chief complaining argument being that the foreign valuation seldom represents the real worth of an article after it reaches this country.
 The principal argument against domestic valuation is that it might stiIe competitive trade.
 Ad valorem duies now are as- sessed against the open market valuation of a product on the day it is shipped from the country in which it was produced, regardless of when it was purchased or whether the purchasing price was above or below the market value on the day it leaves the country.
 In addition to it's evaluation proj- ect, the commission has before it the task of determining the foreign and domestic cost of production on 35 articles listed by the senate, the object being to determine whether the present tariff rates on those commodities are adequate.
 The present commission has or dered the investigation but will let the new commission do the work.
 The new commission also will have to deal with the matter of Russian imports, and the new in- depreciation of the flexible clause likewise is expected to provide considerable work.

FORD SPURNS MAIL
 DURING PARIS STAY
Fellow Passengers Relate Views He Expressed On Boat

Paris, Sept. 13 (UP)-Henry Ford lived the life of a tourist yesterday He slept an hour later than usual. declined to look at an enormous morning mail containing hundreds of letters from antique dealers, and then started out to see the sights of Paris.
 While Ford maintained his att!- tude that reporters often make you say what you don't want to say" and kept away from news gather CTS as much as possible, his fellow passengers from New York on the Bremen gathered in Paris cafes and bars and talked about prohibition, as Henry Ford sees it.
 They exchanged bits of conversa- tion that they had with Ford on the ship. Ford told them that prohibi- tlon was successful experiment, they said. Extracts from his con- versation, as quoted by fellow pas sengers, ran as follows:
 We dried up Dearborn in 30 days"
 New York? We'll, New York isn't the United States"
 Detroit is getting worse every day, I mean for the bootleggers.
 How about England? In Eng land they're shutting down the drink steadily. Soon it will be all gone"
 The younger generation aboard the Bremen received a new ball room thrill when the ships band played a Mazurka sand Ford and Mrs. Ford were thet only passengers who danced it. Most of the others asked wonderingly what it was.

 As time goes on there will be ad- dtions to the list of streets on which through traffic has the right of way, Chief Hart said, but he made it plain that there will be no speedways set up by this arrange ment.
