CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE “First of all,” said Cavanaugh after a moment’s silence, “I want an unconditional release and exoneration from the police. Then I want you to leave me alone. I'm not a stool pigeon and I’m not going to double-cross any of my friends.” Mulrooney wiped his forehead. “1 couldn’t do that. You’re an accessory in these cases, beyond doubt. I’m consulting with the District Attorney this afternoon about your charges. No, the best thing for you to do is to come clean on everything. You haven’t done that yet. Don’t you think I’m right, Miss Luneska?'’ “You can leave Miss Luneska out of it,” Cavanaugh said levelly. “This is between you and me, Mulrooney.” Mulrooney’s mouth grew sulky under the stubby moustache. “The trouble with you, Mr. Cavanaugh,” he said coldly, “is that you’re trying to carry water on both shoulders. You know the identity of those yeggs that blew that safe and killed Kruger.” “Maybe I do and maybe I don’t.” “Answer me one thing. Why don’t you tell us who they are?” Cavanaugh’s eyes narrowed a little. “Isn’t it possible, Mulrooney, that one of those men might have been a friend of mine? Maybe that man has done me a big favor sometime. And here’s another angle. There’s a killer loose and he’s after me. It’s my own personal job to check up on him. I can’t do those things as long as the police have a string on me. You ought to be smart enough to see that. I’m asking you to do the wise thing. Turn me loose!” Leni leaned forward a little. “There—isn’t that simple, Mr. Mulrooney?” she exclaimed. But Mulrooney had no intention •f being swept off his feet. He was, after all, a policeman and he entertained not the slightest idea of exonerating and liberating a promising prisoner in exchange so r an ephemeral promise. “Not on your life, Mr. Cavanaugh,” he said without taking his eigar from his mouth. “You’re in a bad jam and you know it. I’ve stretched a point even in bringing you out here to talk. I made a bargain w-ith you after Kruger was shot, but that’s all off now. You’re in a spot where you’re going to eome clean with everything — I mean everything—or you’re going to take it on the chin. I was willing to play ball with you after Kruger —but it’s another story now.” He had employed the tone which he used to intimidate prisoners. Lucky Cavanaugh had no intention, however, of being browbeaten. “Im going to make you just one more little proposition, Mulrooney,” he said—and his eyes tightened as he spoke. “First, I'm going to do you a favor. I’ve lost a lot of my luck, but I’ve got a hunch there’s a little of it left yet. I think 1 can get my hand on the fellow that killed Annette. I can’t promise but 1 think so. When 1 get him I’m going to turn him over to you. You’re going to have all the glory. That’s what I’m going to do for you. Now I’ll tell you what you’re going to do for me. You’re the only living soul outside of myself that knows the story of Miss Luneska’s past life. You’re going to keep your mouth shut forever on that subject If it ever comes to light—if a single word of it is ever made public—l’ll know who it came from. Did you ever have any threats

made against you, Mulrooney?” The detective’s eyes were hard and unblinking. “Plenty of times, Cavanaugh.” “Well, I’m not making any threats. I’m telling you something. Win or lose—whatever happens— I’m expecting you to keep your mouth shut about Miss Luneska. It’s plain, common, human decency. If you spill anything, it’s going to be a personal matter between the two of us. Just something between Mulrooney and Cavanaugh. I’ve never made that threat before to any living man and I hope I don’t have to carry it out.” Mulrooney got to his feet, his eyes glinting with cold fury. As Mulrooney rose, Cavanaugh, too, came to his feet. Leni came up as well, watching intently these two men who faced each other with such opposition in their stormy eyes. She would have thrown her arms around Cavanaugh except that it would have been silly and inadequate. Her heart was swelling with remorse, pity, alarm. But remorse was uppermost. It w’as all her fault. It was she who had been fatal to Cavanaugh. He had been free, gay, untrammeled, until he met her. It was the black shadow of her own life that fell like a pall upon him. In the beginning it had been no mor* than a casual flirtation for him. Now it was, practically, a matter of life and death. Had their paths never crossed it was a certainty Lucky Cavanaugh would still be the insouciant young man of the world, welcome almost everywhere, master of his life, liberty and destiny. Instead of his charming freedom he now faced a charge of murder—was now about to be dragged off to jail like a common felon.

Cancel Plane Trip Back To Washington i Fort Wayne. Ind. Aug. 22 -<l I • J—Two Washington youths injured In an auto accident near here were ' transferred to their horn 's by train . last night after plans for making j the trip by ambulance plane had been cancelled be a use of unfavpr- ) able flying weather. They are Benjamin Frank, 17, ami Arthur Stein. 18. Accompanying ! the boys both of whom were hoisted I into the drawing room coach on stretchers through the window, were Malcolm Levy, 17, who suffered minor injuries in the accident

Worse, in trying to defend her reputation, he had lost his head, had uttered words which amounted to an implied threat against the life of an officer of the law. Leni moved quickly between the two men, her arms stretched out sidewise as though to keep them apart. “Now, please, both of you!” she cried. “This is a conference—not a vendetta 1” Following the instinct of her heart, she leaned pliantly against Cavanaugh. “Don't mind what Lucky says about you, Mr. Mulrooney. I assure you—l promise you—l don’t care about myself. I’m through with pictures anyway—what does it matter whether my name is good or bad? Lucky is angry—he doesn’t realize what he is saying!” It was the futile effort of the peace maker and met with the usual result. Cavanaugh moved a strong arm and forced her ruthlessly out of the way. ' “What I said to you goes, Mulrooney !” he said in compressed words. “You keep her name out of this.” It was a command and it affected this arm of the law exactly as a slap in the face. Twenty autocratic years of police authority began to boil. He reached under his coat toward the hip pocket of his trousers. For a moment Cavanaugh thought he was going to pull « gun. But instead of a police automatic, Mulrooney produced two nickel-plated circlets connected by a short glistening chain. “Stick ’em out, wise guy!” blurted out the detective, white with rage. “I brought you here like a gentleman and you’re going back to the tank like a crook!” (To Be Copyright. 1932, by Robert Shannon Disiriimted by King Features Syndicate.
