NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER ELEVEN c Continued) “Too well known, ’ said Legry. The underlings in a gang like that can appear more or less openly. Jackson is too hot. He's probably got a snugger hieeout that we don't know about. He can be there and his gang, or part of it. can be here in Dover seeing the sights and burning up their money . . . while Jackson lays his plans for anew job. One of these days they 11 quietly vanish ... and a week latet we’il read about, a bank robbery down in Texas or over in Pennsylvania somewhere. tt n a r inHERE was another silence. Then I Hagan asked, “Say, did you noticethat long light-haired guy that was with ’em—l mean, did you notice him especially?” “I took a good look but it didn't tell me anything. Why?” “Well. I looked, too; and it seems to me that he comes pretty close to siding a description wc got for one of the men that stuck up the Acme Box Co.'s pay roll that day last week.” Larry looked up with new interest in his eyes; but all he said was Well, you know what those descriptions are like—you could pinch most anybody on ’em.” “Well, I know,” said Hagan. “It’s not, only that. Far as that goes, he fits it; ‘Six feet one or two. lighthaired, tanned complexion, broad

shoulders —’ but that isn't all. . . . D'you know about that stickup?" Larry shook his head. “Just an ordinary stickup,” said Hagan, with the air of one to whom robbery is no novelty. “Friday evening in pay day at the Acme plant, and every Friday afternoon the ' cashier gets his flivver and drives over to the 105th street branch of 1 the Dover Trust Cos. and gets the : dough—it runs to about S2OOO. Don't ask me why they didn't have an express company deliver it with an armored truck. They just didn't. “Anyhow, last Friday a touring ; ca. crowds this cashier's flivver over to the curb as he's on his way j back to the plant. It's broad daylight, but it happens on one of the : those deserted streets back of the freight yards there and there's nobody to see. A young fellow gets out of the car. sticks a gun in the cashier’s face and takes the money. Then he gets back in the touring ; car and his buddy, at the wheel, gives her the gas, and that's all there is to it. a a u “'IT7ELL. what I happened to ’ ’ think of is this: The cashier gives us this description, which as you say, don't help much. But he says that the with the gun ! sort of looked like a cowboy. Funny, ain't it? Looked like a cowboy. That's just how he put it. Said he ! used to live in Wyoming, and this robber somehow seemed like he >ught to be r-n a cow-pony just in from the ranges. “I didn’t think much of it, at the ; time. But since we Avere in the Golden Feather the other night I've been thinking; that long drink of water at that table there —didn't he ' have a sort of cowboy air about him?” Larry pursed his lips thoughtfully. “I don't know but what he did, ! now you mention it,” he said. “He i did seem sort of —Western, come to think of it. Think your cashier could identify him?” ‘ Well, in that case, let's get this cashier and drop around there tonight.” Hagan nodded slowly. “Os course,” he said slowly, “we probably won’t be able to hang any-

thing on him. There's onlv one witness, you see—just the cashier. And unless his identification should happen to be awful strong—” “Listen.” said larrv suddenly, “I don't care whether you can hang anything on this chap or not. But if you can get enough of an identification to warrant you in bringing a formal charge against him. you can take nim down to head quarters and get his fingerprints. Then I can send them in tc Washington and we can see if he has a record—and if he's a member of Jackson's mob.” He touched the detective's sleeve. “Do that.” he said. “Have somebody pick him up tonight—he's preth' certain to be there at the Golden Feather, judging by past ! performances, and if he isn't there tonight he'll be there tomorrow night. Look. Mike ... if this is part of the Red Jackson gang hanging around in Dover, they're hanging around for some reason. Something is being planned. Now is my chance to get on the trail of it. Ail I ask is that you can just get a charge placed against this fellow. Twenty-four hours after I get his prints I can tell you if he's in the Jackson mob or not. See?” Hagan stood up. “I'll go back to the detective bureau now and detail a couple men to go out there with me tonight and bring him in.” he said. “And I’ll have someone else get that cashier down to have a squint at him.” a ts npHE unexpected angles to police work in a big city are numerout. Hagan did as he had promised that afternoon. To put the order through he got authority from the deputy inspector temporarily in charge of the bureau. The order was read at afternoon roll call. It passed through the hands of three clerks. And half an hour after it was issued, a man slipped quietly out of the detective bureau, went to a drug store across the street, entered a telephone booth and called a number. He spoke into the instrument in a low voice, his lips close to the mouthpiece. “Hello—Frosty? This is Tommy.

Listen. I got a tip for you. Pass ! the word to Oklahoma, will you? . . . Oklahoma —you know, the tallsure. him. . . . Listen; tell Oklahoma ! that he's gonna be fingered for the Acme pay roll job. . . . Acme, you lug—A-C-M-E—get it? Okay. At the club. Tonight. Tell Al.” Then he hung up the receiver and unobtrusively went back to the detective bureau. And after a while, as Art Lanning walked from his office to the kitchen of the Golden Feather, one of the waiters drew him aside. “I gotta tip they're going to put the finger on that sandy-haired guv i Ircnt Oklahoma here tonight for the Acme pay roll stickup,” he said quietly. Lanning looked at him, nodded, and went back to his office. There he took his telephone and dialed a number. "Hello—Eve? This's Lanning. Listen. Tell Sandy to stay away tonight. I just got the word they’re getting ready to hang a pay roll rapj on him. . . . Yeah, the Acme job. . . . They're supposed to be here tonight to pick him up. . . . No. that's all I know.” Evelyn Brady strolled into the I living room of her apartment. Lewis was at his ease in a big arm chair, smoking a cigar and listening to the play-by-play description of a ball game coming over the radio. Sandy was stretched out on the davenport. his muscular body relaxed, panther-like, his shirt open at the throat, a detective story in his tanned fist. "Sandy,” said Evelyn. “Lanning called. He got a buzz from somebody downtown. Somebody’s going to be looking for you at the Golden Feather tonight.” Sandy looked at her inquiringly. “What for?” “Some pay roll stickup. Acme, or something like that.” Lewis peered at him over the end of his cigar. Sandy went, back to his book. “Well, what about it?” asked the j girl. Sandy lowered the book. “Keep your shirt on,” he said. “I'll j just stay away, that's all." “Going to stay in town?” “Sure. I got an assignment here.” 1 She laughed. “Yes. I know. A i

blond assignment. She's kind of cute, too, Sandy." “Yeah. She's cute all right. She's going to be useful, too.” (To Bo Continued!. Sets Friends Night Friends night is to be observed by Indianapolis chapter No. 393. O. E. S., Tuesday night at the temple. 1522 W. Morris-st.
