Again he threw himself on his face,
witltlng patiently for other sounds.
The great Hat before him showed dim-
ly In Its yellow bareness, stretching
down to where the broutl expanse of

CHAPTER V.—Continued.
In his anxiety he was on the verge
rf rushing out and trusting to any
convenient pretext,, when a boy came '
hurrying past him, whittling as he
went and homeward bound. Here was
the spy's opportunity, and he ac- !
cepted It. He hailed the lad. and In
pigeon Kngllsh told him he waved to
get almard the vessel If ho could.
"Well, you can't do It." came the
resjxinse. "If you wanted to git on.
why didn't you run after lhe ship in- j
stead of stopping me?"
"Where she go?" queried Seigo.
"Oil, you want to know where s she's |
going now, do you. Mr. Chink. Well, a
fellow on the dock said she was going
to Guantanamo, and that means you I
couldn't go on her if you wanted to.
Then with a derisive laugh he took
up the strain of his melody at exactly
the same place Iip had left off when j
accosted, thrust his hands Into his
pockets and continued Ills way.
Seigo was elated. That accounted
for it. then! The United States was i
playing some crafty game, using its
Cuban naval station as a base; was
conducting some experiment o nit
fitting some strange expedition with
necessities that could not be obtained
In the big Island to the south. The
only perturbing thought was that the
navy, instend of being inactive, had
tome secret task on htNid which had
been taken away from home stations.
He decided he must return to Wash-
ington with this single straud of In-
formation and there endeavor to se
cure others. He watched the lights
of the ship grow dim, and then as
furtively as he had come returned to
the home of the laundryman.
The latter counted his pay and won-
dered why his guest departed for the
north on the early train of tha* morn-
ing. Selgo offered no explanations for
his erratic action, and as he traveled to
Washington he was In a gleeful mood.
In due time he arrived, and once more!
ensconced himself In his headquarters
hoping within a few days to gain more |
complete knowledge, lie was handi-
capped in his quest, however, because
he had no actual means of access to
government circles where such data
as he wished might best be obtained.
Hut again cccident favored him. and
again it was In the night when be

The hour was late when Meredith
brought htm word that several visi-
tors bad called upon the president,
and. not trusting to others a mission
so important, lie too!-- upon himself the
tasi: of spying upon the great white
building where the ruler of the coun-
try lived. From the darkness of his
alleyway he emerged into a broader
street, when an automobile wont
chugging past him. and then. Just as
it came beneath the rays of an arc
light, a face leaned to the window, an
arm was < xtended evidently for the
purpose of shaking the ash from a
cigar, and Seigo shrank back. In th"
shivering white rays he recognised as
one of the passengefa In the machine
supercilious and confident. To night
as he ran, he was teriifled, ashamed
and despnlrlng.
Information had c^me to him that
the blockade was complete, and In no
Instance was In- certain that any of
his reports had passed through the
lines. He rapidly reviewed the
chances, and decided that he must get
advised and alert, in a burst of Im-
potent rage lie shook his tisis at the
stars. His companion caught his arm.
"Listen!" he said. "You have but

checked him and continued:
"If you are careful you can get to
Chicago, where other friends of mine
will help you. Then you must try to
reach Canada as best you can."
Seigo hesitated a minute before do
elding; but It was obvious that ru. bet-
ter means was available. Together
the two men crept through alleyways
and back streets to lhe outskirts of
tl>e city, uixll they came to the hovel
where lived the truck farmer ou whom
they placed their hope. He, exper-
ienced in the ways of the Americans
through long residence in California
and standing in dread of Hit.- law, was
at first loath to undertake the pari
assigned to him . but the clink of gold
coin overcame Irts f«*sirs, and in tho
end Seigo sought sleep in the bottom
of a covered wagon while being driven
to the place where he was to assumo
a new role. He felt alone and deserted
when the gardener departed, leaving
him standing at an Intersection of rail-
way tracks waiting Impatient!) fur a
freight train on which he was to maku
his first excursion Into tratupdom.
It came at last, a heavy snorting lo-
comotive pulling a Iouk trailer of emp-
ties. It whistled shrilly for the cross-
ing, watched for a signal from the
lonely little tower, and came to a full
stop. Se. ;n, with his heart in his
mouth, clambered through the side
door of an empty car and was soon
traveling westward to the rhythmic
clank of wheels on rails. Fatigue at
last overcame him and he slowly
dropped Into a restless sleep in which
he was pursued by demons and con-
fronted by uuknown terrors. He was
aroused by a brakeman, who roughly
punched him in the ribs wiih the toe
of his boot and told h:in to "Hike
out!" He sat up and blinked his eyes
until again ordered to vacate, and
then came to his senses sufficiently to
make a plea for himself, w|.i<h was
unavallinf The hrakeman was ob-
durate and threatening, iiusil the spy
crawled stifitv out.
He sat wearily down on a pile r>f

dragged past, then reached out a
grimy hand, swung lightly onto the
steps of the caboose, and shook his
