CHAPTER XIX Bannister was stunned. For the second time that day Karen Sire ’ had exhibited a wholly unaccountable contempt for him. He could r have forgiven the first rebuff; he had thrust himself upon her at a time when she was under great stress; she had not sought his ad--5 vice or ar.:istance. But this latest performance was a flagrant affront “Hod was right,” he muttered bitterly. “The girl doesn’t regard me f as an equal. I'm just an odd sort of fish to her—one to be hooked and thrown overboard after the catch. Tuh! I can’t buy a white chip in the game these people are playing. ! Maybe she had a throne in mind ) even while I was harping about the ‘ pelt of a snow leopard. But who- ' ever, or whatever this Prince was, I he’s dead now. What’s the next j move in the game?” He took an elel vator up. Toole had an automatic in his ■ hand when he opened the door to 1 admit his friend. “Expecting Jeff Whipple?” Dick I queried pleasantly. Toole dropped the gun into his I coat pocket. "Just makin’ sure,” he answered shortly. “That bird has bounced his last blackjack off my ' dome.” “We might as well fold up and | get out of here,” Bannister re- ' marked. “Karen’s got the stuff she I wants and has skipped, leaving Jeff I to hold the bag. Metaphorically, we’re in the same boat.” “Not exactly. The house has been instructed not to tell Jeff that she's gone. The little lady is presumed to be in her room right now. It won’t be long before Jeff finds out what was done to him. Maybe he’ll make a call on her.” “Suppose we shift to her room, Bannister suggested. “I’ll get Bully to bark a little and he’ll think it’s i the chow. We can put on the lights so they'll shine out on the loggia. He’ll notice all this when he comes up from the Rose Room and think that Karen is in the room." “Would you be willing to go into her rooms and stay there all night alone?” Toole asked. Bannister recoiled. “Not alone,” he said. “What if she returned and caught me crouching in there? ' What would she think?” j “That’s all fixed. You won’t be | disturbed by anybody, except possibly Jeff himself. Take the boots i along if you like.” “What will you be doing all this time?” “There's a squib in the papers sayin’ that I’m in Bellevue with injuries sustained in a taxi collision, as I’ve told you. Jeff may fall for this and he may not. He has underground sources of information just the same as I have. He may even know that I’m in this room. I'll stick right here and watch. If he enters Miss Sire’s room and mixes it with you, I’ll be on the job right away.” * “I don’t get your strategy yet,” grumbled Dick. “Karen has the only ; evidence that would be useful in holding Whipple and it’s clear that J she doesn’t wish it to become public.” “Well, you came into this game to help her, didn’t you?” Toole retorted, “She gave me to understand that she’d rather have Whipple holding the stuff than us. Can’t you see that she had me hipped for a fall?” Bannister could not see this and said so. “It you had let me kick Whippie down the hallway, I could have claimed that it was just a plain fight and both he and I would have been arrested. That would ; give you plenty of time to get this I stuff out of his room. Another thing, i you pinched him for the line-up and I he slugged you to get away. The simpler procedure would be to arrest I him again.” I “It would,” Toole admitted, “if i Miss Sire hadn’t forced me to change my plans.” He looked steadI ily into Bannister’s eyes. “Do we 1 part?” he asked.

"No!" Dick snapped. , Toole silently handed over a key e to the suite just vacated by Karen Sire. Bannister picked un his boots, j whispered to Bully, and together p they stepped out into the corridor, leaving Toole alone. Opening the “ door of the darkened apartment, Dick entered and switched on a j light, revealing a suite more richly

and daintily furnished than the one he had just quitted. The Dresden clock chimed a welcome to him; a pretty figurine, perched above it, swept a bow. Fragrance—just a suggestion of it to Bannister; he saw no flowers. But Karen Sire had been there. Bully looked up at him and whimpered. His master felt queer, almost ridiculous. He drew out a small pistol, examined it and thrust it back into his hip pocket. Its deadly accuracy was known to him; with that toy-like weapon he would have regarded himself as a bungler if he missed the eye of a chicken at ten paces. Bannister next kicked off his shoes. Walking to a window he looked down and far out into the park. Automobiles — thousands of them — whirred and gleamed through the darkness. But even in the midst of this he caught a note of the wild. One long drawn cry came to his ears; only a caged wolf, perhaps, yet—had the beast in the park zoo scented the presence of a kindred spirit? Would Jeff Whipple stir at the cry and creep out for the foray? The idea altered Dick's strategy—he turned off the lights. But hours were yet to pass before Jeff Whipple returned to his room. Bannister spent them in tortured inactivity. What if Karen did return? Floating into the room, she I would find him there in sox, trousers and shirt—perhaps with a toy I pistol in his hand. Bully had curled ■ up on the bathroom mat and gone I to sleep long before Dick heard a I sound at Whipple's door. Presently i a flood of light fell across the loggia , —the man was inside. I Five minutes more passed. Dick i thought he heard the rumbie of a ; muffled curse. Perhaps Jeff had opened his portfolio and found that ' he had been duped. Another rumi ble, followed bv an unmistakable thud. The big fellow no doubt had i thrown the bag to the floor. Bannister went to the window and

lifted it cautiously. New York is never still, but for one brief interval in every twenty-four hours, something like complete repose settles upon the city. It comes between the night club curfew and the morning milk trucks. That interval had arrived. The night had become moonless, starless and murky. Bannister be-

gan to feel at home. Many a time and at such an hour he had squatted in the darkness near a water hole, waiting for some wild beast to come within range of his gun. From far back in the park cages another long howl came to his ears. The light in Whipple’s room went out. Bannister stepped behind the heavy draperies and waited. Through a slit between the window casement and the satin folds he commanded a view of Jeff’s only possible approach from the outside and at the same time kept an eye on the door. He did not have long to wait —Jeff had chosen the window. Dick heard a faint scraping a* from the cautious raising of a sash. Soon a figure loomed through the murk, if that could be said of a nebulous thing of less seeming density than the surrounding darkness. It was a huge form, yet, in an enveloping robe and hood of pale gray, it wore the aspect of a phantom. W ithin a yard of Bannister the apparition stooped and lifted the window with a pressure so carefully exerted that it seemed to rise under some unseen force. Spectral and silent, it bent over until the hood was fairly within. Bannister drew the draperies about him and held his breath Slowly a gray leg was thrust across the sill; presently the entire figure was in the room. The watcher saw it move noiselessly across the carpet and pause at the bed. Suddenly a sword of light slashed the darkness; the gray invader was using a flashlamp. Thrusting the little revolver back into his pocket, Bannister leaped across the room like a puma, landing squarely upon the ghostly intruder’s back. Instantly the illusion was gone. He was at grips with a man muscled and thewed like a bull. (To Be Continued) OopwlfM. ms. Ohrn HLlhom, !Mrtr!but«d by King Featum ByndJeste. lue
