"SWELL" CREWE, tmem a wntUnvm. new a eroetc. JACK O JUDGMENT, he told him self was pleying his game better than he could piny It himself. The arrest bt PhlllopeHs had removed one of the men who might have been an Inconvenient witness against him. White was gene, Itaeul was gene. He had planned the dlsappearnnce of Selby, n most danger ous man, and Lellle Marsh, an even mere dangerous woman, nnd there re mained only Pinte and Crewe. When he had taken leave of his agent the colonel walked te Westminster and bearded a car which carried him along the Embankment te Blackfriars. He might have been followed, and probably was, but this possibility did net worry him. He walked across Iudgate Cir cus, up te St. Bride Strett te Hatten Garden, and turned lata the office of Mygieberf. Tlr. Myi rtleber. a Terr Maws and polite gentleman, received Mm and wabeced nlm Inte a prlrate ream. Tela shrewd Dutchman had no lllasletie aa te the colonel's probity, bat he had no Armpit either that the bla man could pay handsomely for ererrthln he "Tm clad renVa oema, eoleeel. b Hid. "I ham been expecting mm for a couple of days. We hare Just had a wonderful parcel of stones from Amsterdam, and I think some of them weald suit yen." He disappeared and came back with tray covered with the most beantl beantl fel diamonds that had ever left the cutter's hands. The colonel went ever them slowly, examining them and put ting a select number aside. They were mere easily negotiated and leaa traceable than English bank notes, and they were mere nt-at-able. A Ma balance in the books of the bank might be creditable bat took time te convert into cash. New nobody knew but himself the amount standing te his credit. He was net at the mercy of prying bank clerks or a manager who might be reached by the police. At a minute's notice, and without anybody's being the wiser, he could demand the contents of his safe-deposit box and walk from the bank premises without a soul being aware that he waa carrying the bulk et his fortune away. He took a cab and drove new te th bank premises. Fergusen, the manager received him. "Geed morning, colonel, " he said. " Iwas Just writing yen a note. Xou knew your account is getting very low." "Is that se?" said the colonel in surprise. "I thought you wouldn't realize the fact," aaid Fergusen, "but you've been drawing very heavily of late." "I'll put it right," said the colo nel. "It is net overdrawn?" he asked jocularly, and Fergusen smiled. "You've eighty thousand pounds In account B," he said. "I suppose you don't want te touch that?" "Unless you're anxious that I should get penal servitude for fradulently con verting the company's funds," said the colonel in the same strain, "Ne, I'll fix my account some time today. In the meantime" he produced a pock peck age from his hip pocket "I want this te go Inte my safe-deposit box." "Certainly," said Fergusen, and struck a bell. A clerk answered the call. "Take Colonel Boundary te the vaults. He wants te deposit something In his box," he said. "Or would you like me te de it, colonel?" "I'll de it myself," said the colonel. He followed the clerk down the spiral staircase te the well-lit vault, and with the key which the man handed him opened box twenty. It was divided into two compartments, that en the lett con sisting of a deep drawer, which he pulled out. It was hnlf filled with American paper currency, ns he knew currency neatly parceled and carefully packed by hU 'own hands. "I often wonder, Colonel Boundary," tald the Interested clerk, "why you don't use the bank safe. When a customer has bis own, you knew, we ere net responsible for any of his losses." "I knew that," said the colonel genially. "Still, one must take a risk." He placed the package en the top of the money, pushed back the drawer, locked the safe and handed the key te the young man. "I think the bank takes enough risks without asking them te accept any mere," he snid, "and, besides, I like te take a little risk myself sometimes." "Se I've heard," sold the clerk in nocently, and the colonel shot a ques tioning leek at the young man. He left the bank with the sense of having done his duty by himself, lie had net planned the route by which he was leaving the country, or the hour. Much was te happen before he shook the dust of England from his feet, and as he had arranged matters he would have plenty of time te think things ever before his departure. A great deal happened In the next few days te make him believe that the necessity for getting away was net very urgent. He met Stafferd King In the park one morning, and Stafferd had been unusually communicative and friendly. Then the whispering voices in the flat had temporarily ceased and Jack e Judgment had given blm no sign of existence. It was five days after he made his deposit in the bank that the first shock came te him. He found Snaklt waiting en returning from a matinee, and the little detective was se Important and mysterious that the colonel knew something had been dis covered, "Well," ha asked, closing the deer, "Bha la In oemmazdeattom wtk tka poUee,',' aaid BnaMtj "that a what It uM1m Marsh Is the lady. In om em om manlcaUen with the pence," aaid tha ether lmpreaalvab. "New Just tall m what yea mean," aid the colonel. "De you mean shVa cm TtflUnt terms with tha policeman en point duty at Piccadilly Ofrcaaf" "I mean, air." said Bnaklt with dig nity, "that she's in the habit of meeting Mr. Stafferd King, who la a well-known man at Scotland Yard." "He is well known hare, tee" In terrupted the colonel; "where does she meet nim?" "In all aorta of queer placea that's the suspicious part of it," said Bnaklt, who had Joyously entered thoroughly into the work which had been given te him, without realising Ita unlawful character. He had accepted the colonel's story that he waa the victim et police per secution without question, and as this was the first news of any Importance he had been able te bring te his employer, he was naturally Inclined te make the most of It. "He had met her twice, at 11 o'clock at night, at the bottom of St. James' Street, and walked up with her. very deeply engaged in conversation," eaid Snailt, consulting his note book. "He met her enctt at the feet nf the Rtns leading down from Waterloo Place, and iney were together ler an Heur. Thla morning," he went en speaking slowly, and evidently this was his tidbit, "this morning Mr. Stafferd King went te the Cunard office In Cockspur Street and booked cabin seventeen en the shelter deck of the Lapland for New Yerk." "In what name?" "In the name of Miss Isabel Tren ten." The colonel nodded. It was a name that Lellle had used before and the story rang true. "When does tne Lapland sauT" be asked, and again the detective con sulted his book. "Next Saturday." he said, "from Liverpool." "Very geed," said the colonel. Thank you. Snaklt: you've done very well. See If you can pick them up temgnt, or ne tueugnt a moment "no, don't shadow her tonight. I'll have a talk with her." The news disturbed bim. Lellle was getting ready te run away that was unimportant. But she was running away with the assistance of the police, who had booked her nassase. That meant that they had get as much out of her as sue nod te tell, and were helping her out of the country before the blew fell. That was net only im portant, but it was grave. Either the police were going te strike at once or An idea struck him and he telephoned te Pinte. Anether call get hira in touch with Crewe, and these three were in consultation when Selby came that afternoon. Te be continued tomorrow Cowrteht, UeClure Newepaper Bvndleate "Playing" Gelf -By J. P.
