’ 0& ELEVEN OF DIAMONDS" BAYNARD H. KE N D RICK __

SYNOPSIS Edward Fowler, a wealthy gambler, is murdered at the Sunset Bridge Club in Miami. His body, with a knife in the back, is found in the poker room Fowler had played bridge that evening with Millie La France, a seductive blond; Ben Eckhardt and Dave Button, but quit the game when Millie accused him of throwing it. He paid the owner, Toby Munroe, for his and Millie's losses and ostensibly left, only to be found dead 1 in an adjoining room early the next 1 morning A mysterious prowler 1 discovered the body, following which the police received an anonymous phone call infotming them of the crime. Two weeks previous, Fowler had searched the hotel suite of the Durlyn Bessingers. Bessinger claimed to be a wealthy grain merchant but Fowler believed this only a blind as letters found in a trunk relating to bia grain business were evidently written by Bessinger to himself. The Bessingers were at the club the night Fowler died. Bruce Farraday, the millionaire, enlists the services of private detective, Miles Standish Rice, to help clear up the murder because his son, Tolliver, is involved. The boy's torn check to i Fowler for the sum of ten thousand i dollars was found in the latter’s room. Farraday, Sr M tells Leßoy and Stan that his party, consisting of his daughter Eve, Tolliver, and Mrs. Staunton (a friend) had left the club about 1 A.M. (two hours , after Fowler left) and gone to the Alligator Inn with a Commander Eric Dawson, whom he had just met, and the Bessingers. Glen Neal, : the society reporter, was also in the party. CHAPTER VIII •'Neal’s car is in the garage, Stan,” Leßoy said. “He took a taxi to the club last night.” “What about the Commander? Did you check on him?” “He has a car, but he lives not ten minutes walk from the Sunset. ■Ce often walks back and forth according to Toby.” “We dropped him at his apartment on the way home last night, Mr. Rice. We left the Alligator Inn about three. The others were still Stan was about to apply a match to a fresh cigarette. He let it burn close to his fingers before he asked: “What others?" “The blonde and the two men who were playing at the third table. They must have followed us from the Sunset to the Alligator Inn. They came*into the Inn not five minutes after we did. They were there when we left, as I said." Stan turned to the Captain. “Did you know that, Vince?” “Sure," said Leßoy. “A ten person alibi for everyone who was at the club—except Toby and his spick servant. Juan. It makes it just ducky. I’ll eat my shirt—” “You better soak it in orange juice,” Stan advised. “You're going to say that none of that crowd could have given the works to the big-hearted gambler, who tore up ten grand checks. I’m not so sure, Vince, not so sure—and damn it all, you’re not so sure yourself!" • • • A bridge club, in the morning, is a place shrouded in dead hopes. The air carries pungent oily odors, lingering heavily from consumed cigars and cigarettes, mixing offensively with the fumy dregs of alcohol and coffee left from the nigh. Added to the odors is the strange feeling that absent players are still present. A spectral tenantry occupies the »acant tables, softly sloughing invisible cards from invisible decks, holding ghostly post-mertems on long dead hands.

The casual visitor Is apt to And himself listening for a whispered opening bid. There were equally dead hopes in Satsuma Park. The white stucco house, quartering the Sunset Bridge Club, occupied four of the thirtysix, fifty by a hundred and fifty foot, lota. It had been built for a show place ten years before, when Toby Munroe was sure that Satsuma Park would make him a millionaire. In 1936 the millions, to come from his sub-divided orange grove, looked far away. The lots, with the exception of those immediately surrounding the house, had gone native. The police car, carrying Miles Standish Rice and Captain Vincent Leßoy from their interview with Bruce Farraday, nearly missed the left turn from West Flagler Street into the subdivision. “It looks like jungle Stan remarked. "Jungle with ornate electric light posts bordering a trail. Do these street lights light?" “Sure." The Captain amiled. “When they have bulbs in them. This isn’t far out. Some of the boys subdivided ao far west during the boom they didn’t know whether their lots were in Miami or Tampa.” An officer on the front porch recognized Leßoy’s car and snapped to attention. A press car was parked in the driveway. To the left a man was packing away a Graflex camera. He waved to Leßoy as Stan and the Captain went inside. The door from the front porch opened directly into a combined hall and living-room. It was furnished with a settee, a small table containing magazines, two easy chairs, and four bridge tables reserved for small stake players. The former dining-room, through an arch toward the rear of the house, had been converted into an office. Beyond the office, to the right, was a room originally built for a kitchen. It was used, now, as a storeroom for cards and stationery. From the office came the soft click of a portable noiseless typewriter. Otherwise, the bouse was quiet Only the smells, and the presence of the officer on the porch, served as reminders of the grim game which had taken place the night before. Stan and 10-Roy wem on into the office. Toby Munroe was seated at a small mahogany desk, laboriously copying figures from a book to a piece of paper inserted in the machine. He shoved the typewriter to one side, and leaned back wearily in his chair when the two men entered. “Hello, Rice. You in this, too? I’ve had every cop in the country here now except J. Edgar Hoover. Make yourself at home. You’ll find my fingerprints on the typewriter keys. I forgot my gloves.” There was a note of desperation underlying Toby's greeting. Stan Rice, habitually sensitive to another’s troubles, had real sympathy in his short: “Tough break, Toby!" “Tough?” Toby squinted from one to the other through his fashionable rimless glasses. “It's going to close me up—that’s ail. I’ve spent five years, and every damn nickel I had trying to build up a decent club. I’m just beginning to get some of the social register coming here when somebody picks the place for a slaughter house.” “It’ll be forgotten by next season, Toby," said Leßoy. “There’s a month of this season still left. With no business I can’t take it. The papers won’t let them forget next year, either. If there’s one thing this club doesn't need it'e a reputation as a hangout for hatchetmen." He pushed back his chair, and came around from behind the desk with the quick fluid alacrity of a

ferret Stan had met him only twice before. He remembered that both times he bad been impressed with the flowing ease of Toby’s movements. He stored the fact away in his mind for use in the future if needed. “Do you want to look around downstairs?" The Captain asked Stan. . ~ “There’s not much use looking around any place——after you fellows get through with it.” Stan grinned. “I just want to get an idea of the layout on the second floor." He turned to Toby, who was waiting expectantly in the archway. “Do you mind?” “What difference does it make, if I do? Come on up. You won’t disturb anybody. The bathrooms are up there and you can take a look under the tubs. Maybe there’s another body." The stairs to the second floor were to the right of the front door. They went up straight, half-way, then turned abruptly about-face on a small landing. The upper half was completely walled in. invisible from the lower half, so that anyone descending could not be seen from the ground floor until they had made the turn on the landing. Toby, leading the way, stopped on the landing and stepped to one side. Juan Andres, the steward, was 1 coming down, carrying a metal waste basket, partly filled. “Just a minute.” Leßoy barred the way. “What’s in that basket? 1 said nothing was to be touched in here until I gave permission.” Juan's dark handsome fac* remained passive, but he darted a quick frightened look at Toby, and asked a question in Spanish. The proprietor spoke for him. “I told him to empty the ashtrays, and throw away the old scores. Your men have been over everything.” Stan glanced in the bas'..et. "Let it go. Vince. There’s nothing there 1 want to mess with.” The Captain shrugged, resignedly. He had known Stan Rice for years; watched him work as Investigator for the State’s Attorney; seen him plow doggedly through the tiresome details of private cases He had never learned what Stan wae going to do. nor exactly what Stan waritad to the yeiiow-haired six-footer was frantic because some trivial thing bad been thrown away. When the Captain took pains to preserve everything, the chances were Stan wanted to see none of it. Stan's method had irritated the Captain more than once. Vincent T-eßoy had reached his position in charge of the Homicide Squad by hard work, unfailing integrity, and a flair for observing every detail of every case. He was a brainy officer in a well organized police department which had to cope with more than its share of organized crime. Inconsistency made him uncomfortable, and Miles Standish Rice at work, was capricious as a ballet dancer with coms. Stan felt immediately that Leßoy was disgruntled about allowing the contents of the waste basket to pass unchallenged. “I told you, Vince, I just wanted to look around to get a clear picture of the set-up here," he explained, soothingly, as they continued up the | stairs. “If your department has I been over things. I'm certainly not going to waste my time going over them again. Fawcett’s the best fingerprint man I know—and Earle Ralphs can take pictures of a dead man’s interior. When I reach the stage of having to carry a camera, a tin of dusting powder, and a lens —l’ll start advertising: ‘M. S.
