Carell tried to look stupefed. For =
for What?"
For attempting to abscond with forty
parcels of diamonds
At the beginning Carell had a wild inn
pulse to bolt. But it was futile thought.
They put him and his grips into car and
drove him to the Prefecture. There Carell
felt like an actor giving performance for
the members of the Diamond Dealers
Club. All those from whom he had
attempted to steal diamonds we're present
to identify their parcels. And among
them was the white-haired figure of AriS-
tide Roulade.
The old man shook his head. He was
the only one who spoke to George Carell.
you were foolish to do it, Monsieur
he said.
Carell sank Imply to chair. Il was
fool" he answered, when let you trap
me with questions about cognac!'
BXoulade seemed perplexed. What
has cognac to do with it? You were sup
posed to come to my Office at eleven this
morning. When you failed to come. tele-
phoned to ask if you had changed your
plans. Your concierge told me you had
taken cab to the airport. Enfn, every
body in the Club knows you have many
unpaid-for parcels. You could not be
permitted to run away"
CareH was stunned. What Aristide
Roulade was telling him was that he had
not been defeated by his ignorance about
cognac; he had been defeated by his
panic! -.
las for the cognac," the old man said,
II know nothing about cognac except that

Suddenly Carell shut his eyes in pain.

different years. There are many odd
facts ] could give you, monsieur, if you
care to visit my Office. We might talk
about the loss by evaporation = the
equivalent of $4,000 bottles day ="
But Carell was now in state of shock.
He hung up. Pacing the room, he pushed
rigid fingers through his hair. Now that
he remembered how nSiStently AriStide
Roulade had pressed his questions about
cOgnac, he was certain they had been
tests. By this time. no doubt, the police
of Antwerp had telephoned the police of
Cognac for detailed description of
George Carell. Perhaps they had already
learned that the real Carell had been
small and slight and bald, with a lame
left leg. :.
Within five minutes CareIl was back at
the telephone. Whether he was right or
wrong about having been tricked last
night, he could not afford to take chances.
He called the air lines.
ION Saturdays flight" he said, Il am
booked from Antwerp all the way to
BuenoS Aires. Would it be possible for
me to advance the date? Could = could
fly f0day?"
"Today's flight leaves at 1870, Mon
sieur. In just two hours"
Can you take me?''
LET me See." There was silence for
fully five minutes. Finally the voice came
back: Eyes, Monsieur. there is space. ="
Carell Snatched his grips out of
the closet He worked in panic The dia-
monds we're already concealed in the lin
ings; he packed his clothes faster than he
had ever packed in his life.
At eleven the green-aproned concierge
helped him load the bags into a taxi.
Carell gave the man generous tip. The
cab sped off, and he mopped sweat from
his forehead.
After he had checked in at the air
port he walked back and forth in front of
the gate 1t was five minutes past noon. He
was thinking. with great deal of bitter
ness, that if he had not brought Roulade
that bottle their talk might never have
dealt with cognac.
He was still pacing when someone
tapped his shoulder. Carell spun around.
Two of the four men he faced we're in
civilian clothes, two in police uniform.
One of them said, you will come with
us, Monsieur"

The Diamond Thief Was
Desperate. Now He Must Flee

gone so well, it was strange that George
Carell found it impossible to sleep. Most
of the night he paced the floor of his bed
room, worrying, nervous. Gould the old
man have been batting him with those
questions? And had he betrayed himself
with his ignorance?
He could not know, AS he walked the
floor in darkness, Carell was not even sure
he had shown ignorance. Possibly the
things he had said about cognac were all
close to the truth. niuSt find our, he told
himself, touch of desperation in the
thought.
Tie had long ago learned that
Edouard Denis ct Fills were the largest dis
tributorS of cognac in Antwerp. Immedi-
ately after breakfast he picked up the
telephone. His nerves we're taut and his
face was drawn. He reached Monsieur
Edouard Denis himself.
MY name is Van Bernhaus," he said.
II am writing an article on cognac. Iwon-
der if you would answer few questions"
One can Try, monsieur.
First, those raised bottoms in the
bottles = what is their purpoSe?''
VERY SIMPLE" Monsieur Denis said.
"A diStiller cannot use the same size
bottle in every country to which he ex-
ports. In the United States, for example,
there are certain standard bottles, the
quarter or the fifth of gallon. In South
American countries it is so many ounces.
European countries have other legal Stipu-
lations. So, by raising or lowering the
bottom Of bottle, the diStiller changes
the amount of its contents. And the same
distinctive bottle can be used everywhere,
as long as the bottom is adjusted to meet
the requirements of law"
Carell was jolted His eyes widened. If
AriStide Roulade had been setting trap,
what had he thought about the glib dis
miSSal Of this question on the grounds that
it required long technical answer? His
grip on the telephone became fierce. How
could he have allowed the old man to
make fool of him - and now, of all
times, when he stood on the very brink Of
his greatest success? .
''You have other queStions?" Monsieur
Denis asked.
"YeSv CareIl'S voice was strained

could he have stepped into SO many
traps?

said hoarsely. How is it that the = the
