. No doubt t,e Grand ?aw at once that
t would be Impossible for him to main
tain his Incoftnlfo, he made a virtue
of necessity, and salil:
"What! are ynu runnlns away, too?"
"Only for a day or so," I said.
"That Is Jiif't my case. I want a little
chniiRe, ar.d really there Is nothing to
be pained dancing attendance on the
compter. Never was there such a col
ltction of dumb doss."
If I had still doubted that Le Grand
fr.ad obtained some valuable Informa
tion, I cculd have doubted no longer.
Nothing else wculd have justified this
"turning of his back upon the con
press whilst It was Kill In the middle
of Its sittings. I determined . to stick
close, to him In 'the hn'pe that I might
pain some defining Information. How
ever, during our long Journey he was
very reticent, 'and it was not urotll we
were actually aboard the steamer
vchk'h was to convey us to Dover that
lie allowed his habitual boa-s'tfulness to
'cveisome his caution in even the small
er t degree. Then, judging himself, no
doubt, to be beyond the reach of any
"I Just GIvo Von the Hint What It Is
Worth."
s. possible dangert he Idrew from, his
pocket the blue official envelope whicn
I 'had one before caught sight of,
and said with a triumphant smile:
"This is one of my surprise pack
ages." "Indeed," I paid, "and what la the
value Inside?"
'Perhaps a crown," he answered
(rrandlloquertly.
' Then he returned It 'to his pocket, but
not before I had noticed two things
rhout It. The first tha't It was fastened;
the second that there was no writing
upon It. t,
I had now to devise some plan to get
possession of this envelope, and It was
'not long before I hit upon one.
' I left Le Grand and went Into an
other cabin. Here I opened my valise
nnd took out ia precisely similar enve
lope. Tjien I Tolded a sheet of foolscap
paper and placing itt Inside fastened the
envelope. I now had a dummy package
mat to Be distinguished externally from
the one In HLe Oiand's pocket.
AlUhlswas simple enough. The dlffl
cufty was how to effect the exchange
but I h'ad my own scheme.
The custom house officers were as
.usual, on board, and I went up to the
chief 'of them, and told him In confi
dence that there was a passenger on
board whom it might be well for them
ito e'arch for 'd'.gars or tdbacco. "Of
course," I 'added, "I dm not wish to be
, mixed up with the business. I just give
iyou the ihint for what It Is wort'h. You
eantft mistake 'the passenger in ques
tion, he Is-- o immense, and I can hardly
brieve it', alt all 'his bulk Is genuine."
The Oifkitol was much obliged to me
forVth'.. hint, and it was arranged be
tween us that the search ehould not
tulte place till just as we were reaching
Xjover, and that I should them place
r.iyself close to the suspected passenger

in order to avoid the possibility of a
mlfitake.
All came off as we had arranged. As
the steamer was on the point of enter
ing the harbor, I went up to Le Grand
to fetch my valise, which I had prev
iously placed beside hini. Tlimi the
revenue otlicers came up and asked him
If Ihe had anyt'hlng to declare.
"Nothing," said Le Grand Impa
tiently. "Please to open your packages."
These were duly examined, but noth
ing cemtnaband was discovered.
"And now, sir," said t'he chief official,
"I must trouble you to turn out your
pockets."
"What!" exclaimed Le Grand, swell- I
lng with Indignation.
"liut lit Is unheard of. Do you know
who I am?"
"Tlvat doesn'it matter, sir; we have
the right ito starch any passenger."
"You wJil 'hear more of this," said Le
Grand.
liut he had to gubmi't, and he laild a
motlt-y collection of articles on the
table. AmonRfit them was a blue enve
lope. This was my opportunity. I felt
very nervous, buit In reality the risk
of detection was slight, as every one's
eyes were riveted on Le Grand. In
fine I nvadH the exchange without diffi
culty. Then I quietly withdrew and
went on deck. Ihe gangrflank had al
ready beeniMared In position. As I was
crossing it. Le Grar.-.l, foaming with Im
pellent anger, camp up behind me.
"Did you ever , hear of such Inso
lence?" he said. "I fhall have the mat
ter brought forward, in parliament."
I let h.'m pass when he got on ahore,
and then nvado my way, not to the
Lord Warden, but 'to a much smaller
hdtel where I knew I should be unmo
lested by enemies or frlt'nds. Here I
opened t'he packet. True enough. It
contained the di'af.t-treaty in French
with 'the 'thirteenth clause obtrusively
marked with ml Ink.
"So 'the prince was right in his sus
rlrl'atin," I mid to myself. "But how
on e'arthidld Le Gi'and manage to got
hold of it?"
I knew thlait, though I had secured the
draft, which might be useful for the de
tection of the traitor, whoever he might
be, Le Grand was much too sagacious
to allow WmscHf to be dependent on any
document. I did not doubt that he had
learnt off the principal clauses by heart,
and Mia.t we should. In spite of his loss,
s?e the provisions of the treaty in next
day's Dial. So I sent t'he following
'telegram to the prince: .
"I have recovered the missing parcel,
but am pretty sure that most of its
contents have beon forwarded to Lon
don." -IV.
I stayed In Dover only until the next
boat left for Calais. Then I retraced
my route and in due course found my
self again in the capital where the con
gress was sitting. iMy first visit was.
of course, to the prince. I found him
greatly agitated.
"How good of you," he said, taking
both my hands In his. 'Ho put yourself
to all this trouble on my account. And
o you have really recovered the docu
ment. I will not ask you how you man
aged It. In whatever way it was done,
.It was a righteous act, for Le Grand
could have obtained it only by fraud of
some kind. But the modus operandi is
utterly beyond me. As I said before,
Le GTand must be the devil."
I drew out the envelope and handed
Mm the paper on which the draft-treaty
was written.
"Peilhaps." I said, "this will help you
detect -the traitor."
The prince took the paper, and ran
'his prac ticed eye over the several para
graphs. "It Is, as-1 feared." he said at last,
with omet'hlng very like a groan.
"Sernie of It Is, no doubt, mere clever
guess-work, but much Is evidently am
plified fro significant hints given by
some one who Is familiar wl'Wi our pro
ceedings. And the thirteenth clause
the most Important of all Is almost
word for word as we finally agreed that
It thould stand. This makes It certain
that we 'have been betrayed. And If It
once gets Into the papers, as you think
It will, there will be euch an outcry
that we shall have to modify It. It Is a
terrible blow, especially for me, as It
will be impossible for me now to secure
anything like silch favorable terms for
my sovereign. No misfortune so great
'has ever befallen me In the whole course
of my official! career. And all through
that unscrupulous Le Grand."
. Sympathising with the prince, I did
my best to soothe and comfort him,
but his chagrin was too profound for
my efforts to have much success.
Then I tried to turn 'his attention to
the document as a possible means of
identifying tlie traitor. I
"Do you know the handwriting?" I
asked. j
"Mot In the least; It seenjs to me to
be a disguised hand." 1
"So I thought. And therl Is nothing
about Vhs document to suohest to you
any one in' particular as tmV writer?"
"Nothing!" V
We had a little further conversation,
and then I left him. taking theripeu
ment wtth me.

the trade say it is by far the most
rate It waa a good opportunity of put
ting his boasted science to the test.
When I brought the subject before
him. he smiled' a little sarcastically.
"So the scoffer has come to pray," he
said.
Then he carefully scrutinized the
writing, at first, with the naked eye.
and afterward with a pocket-lense. At
last he said:
"Now I think I have mastered it.
Pray ask me any questions you like.
1 will not undertake to answer them
all. but If I do not know, I will eay so
frankly."
"Very well, then. First. Is this hand
writing natural or disguised?"
"Undoubtedly disguised."
"Second. Is it a man's hand, or a. wo
man's?" "A man's."
"Third Is the writer educated, or un
educated?" "Highly educated."
"Can you tlx approximately the age of
the writer?"
"Only In the roughest way. He Is
cei.talnly not u child not even a youth
f jr the hand Is perfectly formed. And
he cannot be very old, for the writing
Is quite firm. But he might be any age
between, say, twenty-live and fifty or
even sixty."
I could think of only one more ques
tion. As yet Graham's science had
done hut little to help us.
"Is there any peculiarity about the
writing which enables you to give any
further information respecting the
wr'ter?"
"Ah," he said, "that Is a crucial ques
tion; the rest was mere child's play. I
answer it by saying that there Is some
thing very peculiar about the writing
which d ies enable me to give a piece
of Information about the writer. Only,
you will not believe me When I tell you
what it is."
"Tell me, nevertheless," I said.
"The writer is blind in one eye."
"How can you possibly know that?"
"Oh, It Is easy enough. If you only
take the trouble to observe. I know,
too, that it is the left eye of which he
Is blind and that the sight of the right
eye is not good."
"It Is very remarkable, if true."
"It is perfectly true. You can Judge
for yourself. (Did you ever see 'i's'
dotted as these are?"
"I do not know. What is there pe
culiar about them?"
"Perhaps you have never noticed how
perple generally dot them. No one, ex
cept, perhaps, a schoolboy over his
round hand, ever dots an 'I' at the time
he forms the letter; he alwiys waits at
least until he has reached the end of the
word. Well, now, a man Who has lost
the sl?ht of his left eye, and whose
sight is generally defective, bends over
his paper, and his nope gets in his way
when he wants to dot his 'I's.' The con
sequence is that It is all done hap
hazard. Now look at the dots of these
i's'; they are here, there and every-
"Wo Have the Right to Scaroh Any Pas
Sanger." where; sometimes but rarely before
the letter; more often behind It; some
times too high up; sometimes too low
down. You can see at once that it
is all done by faith and not by sight."
I looked more carefully at the wr't
lng; It wastndeed as Grerham had said.
I thought at once of Count Shrleval
Jleff. Kvery one knew that he was
blind1 of the left eye. He had acted as
secretary to the congress. If, as seemed
certain, It was one of the plenipoten
tiaries who had betrayed the secret,
Count 'Shrlevaljleff must be the man.
I hastened with my new piece of Infor
mation to the prince, but I had to wait
till the evening before I could see him,
as he had just gone back to the con
gress.
When we met, I told him what Ores
ham had said about the handwriting,
The prince was no great believer in
graphology, and said sok ,
"Still." I said, "Just consider the ac
tual position of. affairs. 'Some one itas
divulged the main provisions of t'he
treaty. That some one must be one of
the plenipotentiaries, for no one else
has had an opportunity of knowing
them. And If It Is one of them, the cul
bono question arises; Which of them
has the greatest Interest 'in upsetting
the thirteenth clause?" "
"Undoubtedly," raid the prince,
"Shrlevaljleff .is the man mcit Interest
ed In upsetting that claue. So much
must be 'patent to everybody. Still. I
say agiatn, tt Is Impossible that he can
have betrayed us. iHe may net be over
scrupulous, but. Ftlll, he would not vio
late the essential principles of diplo
macy." -
"But consider again," I said. "The
count Is the man to whom the cut bono
trt applies, and he Is also the man to
whom my friend's description applies.
A man between twnty-flve and sixty
that Is nothing: but lro a man blind of
the left eye that is 'really 'significant.
Is there any other of tne pienipotcn
t'.arles blind of the left eyer'
It Is very strange." saw ins p

nothing else but that unlucky thirteenth
clause."
Whilst we were thus dlscurslng the
affair, the post came, and from amongst
a pile of letters and papers, the prince
picked out the London Dial. His deli
cate. Jewelled hands trembled visibly
as he opened It. One glance was suffic
ient, and he passed it on to me with a
doleful expression.
"There It is." he said. "The most
Mcred of secrets published urbl et orbl,
and all my labor thrown away. It. Is
monstrous."
