A Sterner Job "As soon as it‘s dark," the Chief said, when Dollimore reported by ‘phone, "raid the place. You still have some of the Yard men at the club?" "Yes. They‘re waiting for me." "Take no risks, Get men from other stations and surround the place. And lct me know the moment you have any news. Butâ€"be carefull Cardew is probably armed." The local inspector entered the office as he was ‘phoning, and the necessary arrangements were rapidly made. Men were to come from two adjoining stations, and with those waiting for him at Mossford, Dollimore judged that he had sufficient. THURBSDAY, APRIL 4TH ‘"‘That‘s very kind of you, sir," Dolliâ€" more said with a smile which, fortunâ€" ately, the telephone could not carry to the Chief. The constable whose beat contained the tiny village of Frithsden St. Mary was sent for, but although he proved to be a very pleasant fellow, he was not particularly helpful. "It lies back a bit from the road, sir. I never been in it. There‘s a chap living there name of Furness. Retired tradesman, I ‘eard. Married. Seems very respectable. They sometimes takes paying guests like, I‘ve heard." "Has he any now?" "You mean toâ€"day?" "Yes â€" yes," Dollimore said impaâ€" tiently. "That I can‘t say." But the consta@able could and did mark the exact spot which "the bungalow occupied on the large scale map in the inspector‘s office. "It‘s in a threeâ€"sided garden at the junction of those two roads," he said. "There‘s a gate at the corner into the garden." "Any cther gates?" "No, sir. It‘s a corner cut off a field, as you might say. There‘s a fence and a bit of a hedge scparating the garden from the field." ‘"Thanks!" Dollimore turned to the local inâ€" spector: "Can you fix the ‘phone with the local exchange?" The inspector nodded: "You want it definitely ‘out of order‘?" "Please, when I give you the word. T‘ll go ahead with the men who are here already.

When he judged that Pertwee and his men had reached the fence, Dollimore \gave the signal, and he and the men with him left the shelter of the spinney opposite the bungalow and crossed the road to the gate. They were all exâ€" perienced men, and made no sound as they followed Dollimore along the grass by the side of the curved drive that led | to the bungalow. \ _ It was almost dark, and when they came to the bend in the drive the bunâ€" galow was indistinct against its backâ€" | ground of trees. the others. I‘m not sure how many will be there, or whether they‘ll put up a fight." It was growing dark when Dollimore, with one of.the plainâ€"clothes men from the Yard, strolled past the bungalow. They had left the car in a quiet turnâ€" ing a quarter of a mile away. The bungalow itself was hidden from the road, but it could be seen from the field. There was one light in the back of the building." "All seems quiet," the plainâ€"clothes man said. They turned and walked back. "The danger is that they will proâ€" bably be armed. We aren‘t," Dollimore said: "but we shall have to risk it, Let us get back to the others." In all Dollimore had eight men with him when the second car nosed its way silently into the lane which had been chosen as a rendezvous. He explained his plans to them in detail, and made quite certain that they were underâ€" stood. A light appeared in a room at the left of the building. "Wait," whispered Dollimore. Inside the room they could see the man who switched on the iight, He was a stranger to 'fhem all, and preâ€" sumably the caretaker whom the conâ€" stable had mentioned. * They watched him put a white cloth on a table and turn to the sideboard. "HMe‘s laying for several people," one of the men whispered a minute or so later. "Come on," said Dollimore. "Bunch on the doorway and take your cue from me. If he turns ugly we‘ll rush him.", Their rukberâ€"soled shoes made little noise as they crossed the gravel path to the door of the bungalow. Dollimore pulled an oldâ€"fashioned handle that was suspended at the side of the door.. As they stood in silence they heard the bell‘ in the interior of the bungalow. Almost at once they distinguished steps in the hall. The dsor was opened by the man‘ they had seen in the diningâ€"room. _ As he did so Dollimore stepped inside. "I‘m Inspector Dollimore of Scotland Yard," he said. ‘"These men are also police officers. Is Silas Rolliter here?" "No." the man said sullenly. A woman with her sleeves rolled up came out from the back of the bungaâ€" low. She stood watching them, a look of fear on her face. "Search the place," Dolilmore said. "You got a warrant?" the man deâ€" manded. "This is my house. TI‘ve never heard of the name you said." "No?" said Dollimore. "You will be well advised to be silent and to stay just where you are. I‘ve nothing against you at the moment and if you‘re wise I shan‘t have." Two of the men made a hurried search of the bungalow, and as they rejoined Dollimore with the news that, beyond the man and woman, there was no one in the house, Inspector Pertwee came from the back of the bungalow. Dollimore glanced at him:; "Nothing," Good grades go handâ€" in â€"hand with g00od health.

"An‘ you‘ll hear more about it before I‘m through with you. I gotter do what you tell me now, but I do it under protest." "Let‘s have a look at the table in the diningâ€"room." Dollimore suggested to Pertwee. "They‘re expectin g four people judgâ€" ing by the 3 c# in y table," one of the men put "Who is the meal for?" Dollimore asked the caretaker. ‘"Me and my wife," the man said; "and my son and his pal if they come." "They‘re coming down here â€" and they‘re coming soon," Dollimore said.. "Rather elaborate for people like these," Pertwee pointed out. "We‘ll get them at the gate. If it‘s shut they‘ll have to pull up and one of them get out. And it‘s quite dark now." Pertwee nodded. "Let‘s get the men out there." In the darkness Dollimore explained the situation to the men. "Make no mistake â€" they‘re danâ€" gerous and probably armed. The car will turn in here, and the man who is not driving will probably get out on this side. The moment he does, you two chaps will rush him and grab his arms. I expect only two peopleâ€"in spite of the table being laid for four. As you grab him T‘ll hop into the car. You others will come up at the side and open the driver‘s door." "What about the lights of the car?" Pertwee asked. "If they come from London they‘ll come from the main road. Here they are!" Ambushed The sound of a car reached them and instinctively the men darted into the shelter of the hedge. But the car went straight on. It was driven by a woman and obviously was not the one they wanted. "I don‘t know how long they will be, but any minute now, I fancy. If they‘re coming this way, the best shelter is between those bushes just beyond the gate. They mustn‘t see uSs, or they l probably drive on." _ a â€"â€"‘Mind if we smoke, sir constables asked, "I‘m going to."

"That sounds like it." said Dollimore. "Rememberâ€"grab the arms of the man who gets out to open the doorâ€"and hold on to him." The car flashed round a corner of the road; its headlights stabbed the darkâ€" ness. It slackened speed as it approachâ€" ed and gently nosed its way into the little drive. heard They heard the door OL the carl OpCll and the sound of a step on the gravel. There was a rush, a stream of oaths, a wild struggle. Dollimore materialized from the darkness on the other side, wrenched open the door of the car and said: "Hands up!" Two other men closed in and grabbing the man at the wheel, hauled him from the car. He seemed too dazed to resist and the nandcuffs were snappeud on. "Watth him!" Dollimore cried to Pertwee and dashed round the back of the car to help the men who were struggling with the man who had alighted. He was a man of great strength, and as Dollimore came up had wrenched an arm free. Dollimore waited; it was inâ€" tensely dark save from the glare of the headlights. He dare not hit in case he got the wrong man, but the swaying mass lurched suddenly out into the light. It was ‘Cardew. He was striving desperately to get to his hip pocket and his revolver. Dollimore had no comâ€" punction. He hit him on the point of the jaw in a way he had learned orlgâ€" inally at a far more ancient educational establishment than the Metropolitan Police College. He went down heavily, and when, a minute alter, he stirred, discovered that he was handcuffed. "Good evening Mr more said, turning prisoner. ‘"Don‘t talk nonsense. I arrest you for complicity in the murder of Mrs. Lewin. Other charges will doubtless be preferred, and it is my dutyâ€"â€"" "I know the rest," said Rolliter.

"Better get particulars from them and ask them to stop in the bungalow for the time being. I‘m off to London. There‘s someone there I want to see, apart‘ from the Chief. I‘d better ‘phone him, by the way." "There‘s a ‘phone in the bungalow," Inspector Pertwee said with a grin. "I‘m sure Mr. Rolliter won‘t mind your using it." A minute later Dollimore was, with a certain feeling of satisfaction, deâ€" manding: "Whitehall 1212." | Interrogation at the Yard "Where are we going, may I ask?" The solicitor seated in the back of the police car broke a long silence with his question. "To Scotland Yard," roplied more. "So far you have not formally preâ€" ferred a charge against me," the soliâ€" citor went on. ‘"‘‘This arrest is wholly illegal." "What is the charge? I am naturally curious." "I can give you several, but if you don‘t mind T‘d rather not discuss the matter." "You are presumably acting under instructions?" "If you say so." "How did you find out about the bungalow?" Rolliter persisted. "A little bird whispered." ‘"Someone must have given it away," Rolliter said almost to himself, in an ugly tone. "Pernandez?" Was it Fernandez?" "You will doubtless know in due course." Rolliter relapsed into a silence which remained unbroken until they were passing through the outer suburbs when he said, as if he were thinking aloud: "It may be ‘better to tell the truth." ‘*The thought may have occurred to other people," Dollimore pointed out. "So! The rat has squealed! I thought he would." "Rats do squeal," Dollimore said, "It‘s one of their habits." At Scotland Yard the prisoners were taken to different rooms and Dollimore was asked to report at once to the Assistant ‘Commissioner. "‘Good work, Dollimore," the Chief Greeted him. "Sit down. So far we‘ve no evidence at all against them as far as the murder is concerned." He had plunged at once into the middle of the affair. "But a very strong presumptive case sir," Dollimore replied. ‘"Yes. Strong enough to justify arrests. We have evidence that Rolâ€" liter was endeavouring to obtain money by false pretences, that he forged Leâ€" win‘s name on a receipt after he was dead. We found that among his papers at his office this evening. In any case, Cardew is wanted by the American police for murder and we have definite evidence that Pachmann and Fernandez kidnapped Miss Stenningâ€"the evidence of the lady herself."

I didn‘t mean that you had actually struck the blow which killed herâ€"that is a matter of no particular importance. But you were there, and you knew that Rolliter and Flash Cardew were there, and you knew why they were there. Why did you kidnap Miss Stenning?" the question was asked so quietly that Fernandez was taken by surprise. "I am saying nothing," he burst out. "Very good. You have already been warned, of course.

While mock trials are by no means new, they are nearly alâ€" ways specially interesting and amusing. The one on Monday night should have particular attraction in view of the fact that so many experts are expected to figure in the affair. The event has been prepared by Inspector Art Olson of the Timmins police force, ang such prominâ€" ent local lawyers as W. O. Langdon, A. Wetmore, Charles Yates and others will take part. The meeting will start at 815 p.m. on Monday and a specially interesting evening is expected. Several Prominent Lawyers to Take Part. Magistrate‘s Clerk: ‘"‘Why haven‘t you paid this fine?" Man. "When I had the money to pay, my wife wanted a new hat." Clerk: "And you gave her the money for the new hat?" Man: "Yes, I thought you would be more lenient than she would be if I refused." "I had no hand in the murder! Flash Cardew did it. I was downstairs in the danceâ€"room and my office the whole evening. . Mr. Dollimore knows it." "I know you said you were there," Dollimore put in. *"You could get from your office without coming through the danceâ€"room and without my seeing you at all;" "How do you know who did it if you were not there?" the Chief asked. "Rolliter and Cardew were in my Oofâ€" They went upstairs. I didn‘t see them afterwards. The next I heard was that Miss Stenning had found the body. They came down that night to do it. The son was dead in Paris." "In his original report Ducros menâ€" tioned that Fernandez was downstairs for the whole material time," the Chief pointed out to Dollimore. "If you think it advisable you can, of course make a statement, Fernandez. By the way. we‘ve got the will, the one you tried to frighten Miss Stenning into giving to you. Here it is." He tock a document from his desk as he was speaking. "I think I rwiu make a statement said Fernandez quietly. "Very good. It is as you wish. The others probably will whether you do so or not." The Chief placed a pad in front of.i him and handed him a pen.
