Bradshaw, 'ff.c- man stepped
elevator wearing a Chesire cat look
of complacency and satisfaction.
He would have a sad awakening
when he asked the news stand chap
about that package.
Dan hurried down the street
aware that he must quickly get rid
of this burden. It was worth—thirty
thousand, probably, and it was too
hot to carry around. Thirty thou-

shaw, alais Caterby, had
that package from the news stand by
the magic name Sweeney, and had
sent it to some hiding place by a con-
federate.
Dan felt genuinely sorry for Soup
Catterby. It was his fault that he had
been murdered by the revengeful
Quillen jumping at conclusions. Al-
though the dead man had participat-
ed in a murder an hour or so ago; he
was a rat.
I am very sorry, Mrs. McDonald,”
Dan reported ver the telephone. “I
have some very bad news and I don’t
know how to tell you. Brace your-
self, Mrs. McDonald It’s very bad in-
deed.
“If you want it straight out then,
something has happened to your
husband. I thought perhaps the po-
lice had been there? Something very
seriou£ I’m sorry, Mrs. McDonald,
but your Tiusband was murdered anj
hour or so ago.” I
He waited. Several gasps came to
his ears and a wailing “Oh dear, Oh
dear.” She went through her act, |aut

A sympathetic cloud crossed his
face at thought of Miss Jennings, the

get a heavy blow, news of her em-
ployer’s murder. It would mean the
office closed and her joo gone.

Neither Quillen nor Bradshaw was
in the lobby. Colwell turned back

became aware that people hurried Graber’s““ office-Yes,

over the heads of his neighbors two
uniformed men who rose and stood
aside for the squadmen.
“Soup Caterby,” one growled.
“Somebody jammed a knife right

"What the hell—Catterby?”
“How come Soup went out from a
knife? Who did it?’’
One of the policemen shrugged.
“Where's the quack? I told Sarg. to
shoot over one of them doctors. Not
that he could do much; Soup was
plenty dead when we found him.
Straining to see better, Colwell
did at last attain a partial view.

cab during a traffic tieup. Corner of
Broadway and Alton.
“What’s that? No, but I’d know
them. Later, one killed the other
with his own knife. Both desperate
characters.” Dan’s eyes roved to the
corners. That jarred her too. “I
thought there might be some ittle
thing, unimportant, of course, which
you might not care to have get out?”
