! Percy to Goliath to Constantine! It
sounded like a base ball broadcast.
Happy" Chance, the manager, was
former pugilist. He shook hands with
great joviality.
"Mr. Bsackwood, isn't it?" he ques-
toned. II thought I recognized you
when you came in. The place is yours,
Mr. Blackwood! What can I do for
you'?' -.
Take me to Rollie Colbath," said
Blackwood,. smiling. 1--WE got o wom-
an on my hands who won't be satisfied
until tell her he's all right.
The manager appeared surprised.
"Colbath?" he echoed blankly.
"one of your men insisted he was
lying down. Too much liquor, think" "
"I understand. But that was some
time ago. He has already left the
| club, I believe. He was In my room
for about half an hour, and then he
went away. He understood the young
woman had gone home"
The situation was becoming mo-
mentarily complicated. Blackwood
frowned and shook his head.
'"It doesn't seem possible" he OBJ
iected. "The young woman has never
left the premises. Are you quite sure,
Chance?"
"Tn find out for you quick enough, ~
the manager said. Just come with
me, Mr.. Blackwood. II there's been Q
mixup I don't know anything about
It,"
Frowning portentously, he led the
way across the crowded night club and
through q door at the back OF the
establishment. In a wide passage
thus revealed, bevy Of attractive girls
all but undressed-were gathering
for the next floor show. and . dappeI
young man In shirt sleeves was prac-
ticing a difficult piece of tap dancing
Chance pushed through the conges-
ton without greeting and opened an
other door on the far side of the pass
age.
Come in, Mr. Blackwood," be In
vited. But he's gone. you see. He
was over there on the couch and had
one of the boys bring him lot Of oof-
fee. There wasn't much wrong with
him" He pushed button in the wall
and waited until bus boy had put his
head in at the door. Il want ShuleI
to come here at once" he ordered.
Blackwood looked around the room
finding nothing to arouse his suspi-
cion. It was simply q small office
with q desk, 8 table, two chairs, and
the couch that had been pointed out
to him. The impress of Colbaths head
was still visible on the rumpled silk
cushion.
Il Lie down there myself, sometimes,
when I get tired of running this
dump" said Happy" Chance, a tribe
YEARLY. That bunch of girls out
there is more trouble than q whole
stable of horses"
He showed box of expensive cigars

certain relish. At the same moment

Gray replied.
Blackwood tossed OF half tunbler-
full Of his liquor and rose to his feet.
"Sit here quietly for a while with Miss
Gray, Philip" he said to Constantine.
the novelist. I'm going to look
around"
He strode directly to the door near
which Goliath had last been seen in
conversation with the manager. 1t
was an entrance to the common bar.
On the far side Of the bar room was
another door leading obviously to the
street.
"Confound It'll" said Riley Black
wood.
The whole episode of Goliath and
Anne Gray was a troubling one. 1t
seemed likely enough, in the circum-
stances, that the mysterious Goliath
had left the premises. But why desert
Anne Gray?
Or was Anne Gray playing part?
They had arrived at the theater late
and left early now Goliath was
gone!
Blackwood strolled the length Of the
crowded bar room and back again,
stopping to light cigarette at the
cigar counter. He had descended upon
the night club in high spirits, pre-
pared to believe the worst about the
two Of them, and he was still pre-
pared to believe it II it could be made
to make sense.
The difficulty was Anne Gray, who
was either very skillful liar or the
simplest Of truth-tellers.
He strolled back into the dining
room and grabbed at passing waiter
"Where can I find the manager" he
asked.
Mr.. Chance? He was here a min
ute ago, sir. There he Is, now-oyer
near the entrance. He's talking to the
party that has just come in. Yes, sir
Thank you, sir!"
Another gorilla, reflected Black
wood, noting the thick chest and long
arms Of the stocky tough who was the
manager Of the cafe. The place was
crawling with them.
The patrons of the club were dane
ing to the strains OF the California
orchestra. The lights were dim and
colored. Blackwood passed the table
at which he had left Anne Gray and
Constantine and saw that they had
vanished. The girls handkerchief was
on the table beside her compact, and
he knew that they were dancing.
For q moment he was annoyed. II
seemed unfair that they should be en-
Toying themselves while he was rum
ming down q murderer. Then he
laughed and continued to the entrance
He was shocked, however, by the
casual ease with which the young
woman adjusted her disappointments.

"The rest do, but not you. You

Why, for years I've worked over that
idea. It's part of me. I'd dry up

bit his lip.

with tears. Why did she feel his dis

Hadn't she known all along how

around her.

Queens, to show cause today
why he should not be instructed

He explained that this last re-

as an Endorsement of the Presi,

Of William j. Lemke, third party

manent occupation" of French
factories as a means Of forever
preventing lockoHtS or undisputed
possession of plants by their own
ers loomed today following Pre-.
mier Leon Blum's failure to settle
the strike of $4,000 textile work,
ers at Lille.
Workers in Marseilles metal in
dustries, it was learned, promised
authorities they would evacuate
the factories provided they were
permitted permanently to main
tain picketS inside the walls on
nights and Sundays.
The offer was rejected, but, with
the strikes spreading, that form
of employe control was seen the
likely outcome of the govern
ment's action in taking sides with
the workers by delivering an ulti-
matum to employers to begin
negotiations by today,
$4,000 Walk Out
Bringing the total of strikers
in Marseilles to $4,000 in SO fac
tories, employees in eight addi-
tional plants there went on strike
today, and the factories were occu-
pied by 1000 idle men and women.
While the red flag was again
hoisted over the Lille textile fac
tories today, the general con-
federation of French employers
protested against Blum's ultima
tum, with a resolution saying:
1--WE object theoretically to
continuation Of the plant Occu-
patiOnS, which go on in spite Of
their illegal character, and which
are recognized by the courts and
public authorities"
The fact that the resolution was
issued just in advance of the con-
ference at Matignon this afternoon
between the Premier and repre-
sentativeS of the employers and
employees indicated there was little
chance Of a compromise.
24-HOur Deadline
Blum warned the employers that
they have "a hours only in which
to agree to arbitration, to accept
a Is per cent wage increase. and
recognize elections Of workers
delegates.
The situation, it was admitted
by Roger Salengro, minister of the
interior and mayor of Lille, is in
creasingly dangerous. Salengro
said:
1--WE can fOreSee an extension
of the conflict which would bring
about q most serious situation"
Extension of the strikes to
Paris, where Communist leaders
announced that this time they
were determined to operate the
factories for their own profit, was
feared.
