Marque tie will be the name of the
new six cylinder motor car which
the Buick Motor Company is to in-
troduce into the lower priced field
early in the summer, according to
an announcement made yesterday
by E. T. Strong president and gen-
eral manager.
Built by Buick. the Marquette will
have the tremendous production and
sales facilities of that organization
at its command, a distinct advan-
tage to both the factory and the
purchaser. Twenty-five years experi-
ence in the building of fine motor
can has placed Buick in a position
to manufacture a car of unusual ap-
peal in the lower priced lield.
Thousands upon thousands of
craftsmen, schooled over a long pe-
riod of years in the art of quality
car manufacturing, have been as-
signed the task of producing the
Marquette-
In addition, the facilities of Gen-
eral Motors, including the Research
Laboratories and Proving Oround,
have been brought into play In plan-
ning the new six.
The great resources of the Fisher
Body Corp-, also have been utilised
in the development of bodies for the
new car.
The intricacies of automotive en-
gineering were given careful study
in developing its mechanical parts
at both the General Motors Re-
search Laboratories and in the Buick
Engineering division. The cars, in
various stages of progress, were put
through thousands and thousands
of miles of gruelling grinds at the
General Motors Proving Grounds In
order that a proven product should
be offered.
Distribution of the new Marquette
through the sales channels already
established by Buick makes It un-
necessary to pioneer In the matter
of delivering the new product to
purchasers.
With all of these phases of manu-
facture, sales and delivery already
firmly established, the Buick Motor
Company will be able to offer serv-
ice unparalleled In the Introduc-
tion of a new car to the motoring
public.

not cast, bat made of plates rivet-
ed together. An example la 8t.

Chapter 12
BLACKMAIL—“DILLON"
J TOOK up the mysterious note-
book. prepared for anything but
what I, was to find. The book look-
ed old. Only the first two pages
had been written on. At the top
of the first page a name was pen-
ned in the dashing handwriting of
Andrew Ogden. .
"Dillon!'’ I whispered, my eyes on
the name. “James Dillon!"
Beneath the name was a list of
entries.,' The upper entries, like the
name, were slightly faded; the lower
ones were black.
“There are 26 entries,” I said un-
steadily. Each one is for 15,000."
“And each one is dated the first
day of January of its respective
year." Henry added tonelessly. "The
last entry is dated the first of the
resent year.”
“Ogden has paid Dillon $5,003 a
year for 26 years," MaeNair drawl-
ed.
I disregarded MacNair s ugly Im-
plication.
"The assumption is that Ogden
paid Dillon $5,000 a year for 26
yean. Dillon killed the ‘Jerry’ who
wrote that note, and since Dillon
has been receiving payment up to
the ftnt or the present year, he
didn’t die as a result of the bullet
‘Jerry1 put into him. I again offer-
the theory that Dillon killed An-
drew Ogden."
“Why?” MacNalr asked.
"For the same reason that he
killed 'Jerry,' perhaps. Or possibly
Ogden refused to pay more black-
mail."
" ‘Possibly’ and ’perhaps,’ " Mac-
Nsir echoed raspingly. “If Ogden
refused to pay more blackmail Dil-
lon would expose him. not kill him.”
This was logical.
“You are fori^tting young Jer-
ry." Deacon reminded me. “You
and Stimson saw him tearing along
the walk last night. That fact has
got to be overcome before we can
assume Dillon or anyone else kill-
ed Ogden."
I retorted bitterly. “It wasn’t
Jerry we saw. It was someone else
Someone In his flannels.”
MacNalr gestured Impatiently
“Jerry Is the likeliest candidate ao
far. But leave Peebles to his sen-
timentalities for the moment. Dea-
con, and consider Dillon. The lat-
ter may or may not have killed Og-
den. but I venture to say he could
throw a good deal of light on the
affair. Who is Dillon? He has
been blackmailing Ogden for 26
years. But—Is ‘James Dillon' this
man’s right name? Blackmailers
usually submerge their own per-
sonalities."
“You mean that Jsmfs Dillon’
may be the ‘operating name’ of
some one known to us?” I asked.
“Exactly. Furrie. the woman In
black. Hubbard, Stimson, Nathan
Hyde. Perhaps Deacon here. Even
your estimable self.*
“Why not Luther MacNalr?" I
asked ironically.
“Certainly, tf you wish."
“At least you leave our our Jer-
ry"
"Hmn! you return to the bone of
contention. Yes, I eliminate young
Ofden ss a possible ‘James Dillon,
but Dot as the slayer of his father,
Dillon may have killed the un-
known Jerry’ and blackmailed Og-
den all these years; but it doesn’t
aL*o follow that he killed Ogden,
though he may know why Ogden
was killed."
“You accused me of theorizing
without facts." I said derisively,
i “but you are doing a good bit of it
yourself."
“No. I’m not theorizing; I’m
speculating. When I theorize I
base my theory on fact. You don’t.
In face of evidence to the contrary
you say Jerry Ogden couldn’t have
killed his father. ' You c*n your
assertion theory when It Is noth-
ing but speculation, for you have
no basis of fact. Again, you say
you believe Dillon killed Ogden and
call your belief s theory. But your
only basis of fact is your faith in
the boy. which isn’t a fact at all. Is
the difference dear?”
During this discussion I had beer,
arranging the poker chip* into
stacks of five. I had five
and one over.
“Hello,'’ I cried. “There are ex-
actly 26 poker chips here. Ogden
made 26 payments to Dillon Queer
isn’t it?" ’
MacNalr grinned. *T wonder If
there’s any connection between
the chips -and the payments. You
might ring for Hubbard.’’
I did so. MacNalr took a sheet of
letter paper and one of the poker
chips. Folding the chip Inside the
sheet, he placed both in an envel-
ope. which he sealed. Hu bard came
In just then.
“You rang, sir?” he inquired.
“Yes," MacNalr replied. “How
did M. Ogden get his mail?"
"The mail carrier leaves it In
the box twice a day, sir. I brought
It up to Mr. Ogden.”
“Come here, Hubbard."
The mao came to the edge of
the desk, ill at ease, and MacNalr
present him with the envelope in
which he had sealed the poker chip.
"Did you ever notice in Mr. Og-
den’s mall letters that felt like that
envelope?"
„ *Lub*rd *▼*> Ws fingers over It
Why, yes, sir. A number of time."
"Tell us about them."
“Well. sir. I began to notice them
three or four years after I came
here. I couldn’t help noticing them
because of the chip inside. It seems
to me they always arrived during the
first week in January "
"Splendid, Hubbard. And how
did you know poker chips were in
the envelopes?”
