She had halted directly before

suit appeared to be a trifie tight for
her short, round figure. Her titan
hair had been curled until it had a
faded, frizzed look Yet, in spite
Of these details, she had a sort Of
prettiness. Once, Bannister was
sure, she had been very pretty.
Il want to talk to you" she told
him firmly, about this murder.
You're a detective, aren't you? Well,
I've got something to tell you'll"
"But-er. you see"

introduced herself Mrs Russell

What do you mean she de-
handed. saying you're not a de-
tective?"
Well, he had told her the truth.
And he was more than little
curious to hear what she had to
say. My name is Bannister," ne

Kings rooms. But I'm not with

Come in
TINE open door revealed an or
Il nately decorated living room.
In size it was almost identical with
the room BanniSter had examined
on the floor above but there was
no other similarity. An over
stuffed divan and chair upholstered
in mauve satin wore squares of
lace on their backs. The rest Of
the furniture appeared to Bannis-

cigarettes from a pocket, offered
them to Mrs Kennebec, but she
declined. He extracted one for him

FOREIGN LIQUOR
GREETED BY TRADE
President Must Cut Tariff to
Lower Prices, However, It
Is Said.
BY the Associated Press


NEW YORK, March 10.-President
Roosevelt's decision to open the
country temporarily to foreign liquor
in unlimited quantities brought ex-
pressions of general appreciation to-
day from the trade.
Its purpose of eliminating spurious
and bootlegged stuff from the market
probably will be accomplished, liquor
dealers said. but they expressed doubt
that the move would bring lower
prices. Only a downward revision of
the tariff will do that, they said.
I'm afraid the President is in
error If he believes a flood of i'm
ports will reduce prices sharply" said
Leo Leventritt Of International Wine
Cellars. "The trouble is tariffs.
They are the bootleggers' best friend.
Il buy in Scotland or England a
case of fine whisky for $40 or $11.

ing, and so forth, Is another dollar.
Then pay s16.93 duty and internal
