And at the next halt he sends a wire to a friend, GUICHARD, at Marseilles. Towards the end of the jJourney the narrowâ€"eyed person whom Brocklebank nicknames YELLOW DOG, appears at the entrance of Brocklebank‘s compartâ€" ment and asks if he may smoke: a cigar, since his own compartment is a nonâ€"smoked. â€" Brocklebank agrees and Â¥Yellow Dog brings a companion whom The task is to meet Harrison‘s niece, PAMELA at Marseilles, where she is arâ€" riving from the Negar East, and to conâ€" duct her to London, where Harrison will be awaiting her at the Felton Hotel. Harrison explains that his niece will have in her possession something of great value which certain individuals are intensely anxious to get. In this connection Harrison explains that he is engaged in what he calls a "private war" with certain money interest. He shows Brockiebank a photograph of a middleâ€"aged man with a grey moustache and narrow eyes, and w#4:ins ‘Bmckle- bank against him. When the story opens, Brocklebank 18 on his way from Paris to Marseilles by train. When he goes to the Testaurant car for dinner, he sees in a far corner a man closely resembling the photoâ€" graph which Harrison showed in New York. You may start this thrilling story here and now without missing much of what has gone before. Just read the synopsis given herewith and then go on with the story. Harrison takes Brocklebank to his apartment, where he shows a desire to do something to reward the young man. Discovering that Brocklebank is a deâ€" pendable person of excellent educaticn, who speaks French fluently, he asks him if he would care to undertake an errand to Europe, for which he is preâ€" pared to pay 2,000 dollars. Brocklebank who is in American getting business exâ€" perience, but has lost his job, is atâ€" tracted by the offer.

Leave it to me, Bill." "Or the 2listâ€"tomorrow or the day after.. You know all about the shipping in the port, Raoul. Do you know her?" ‘"Yes, perfectly. An Italian. Trades to the Levant.

"But we have him! Do you know where he is?"â€"‘"in there!" He pointed to the wall. "What!" cried Brocklebank "Next doorâ€"at Ricard‘s Too near, I admit. But leave him to me, Bill." "I‘m not afraid of him Raoul; but I want him kept away from that ship. I rather relied on youâ€"" When Ackerton has finished his cigar and left the compartment, Yellow Dog takes the earliest opportunity of asking Brocklebank what his game is. In reply, Brocklebank, still speaking in French, produces his pistol. â€" Uitimately the man makes off to another part of the train. ' the train. At Marscilles Brocklebank is met by Guichard. an old friend. Although the conversation so far has been in French Ackerton suspects Brocâ€" klebank of being English, but Brockleâ€" bank skilfully maintains the fiction that he is French, and that he does not understand English. Even so, Ackerton is not convinced, and tells Yellow Dog he believes the man. to be English and named Brocklebank. THUR ACKERTON, an old friend of his father. During the next day he reported to time at all and with all my speed and thoroughness, do the job so gently, that the sheerest fabric is unharmed. You can have me for a small down payment. Find out about my work and how easy I am to own." "T‘wo of ‘em! Raoul, you‘re standing in with me. What shall it beâ€"force or gulle?" "What do you say?" 1 "I mean, shouldâ€"we hustle or try to outwit them? Is it possible to get at the ship before she docks?" "Ah!â€"outside? Difficult. "Nonsense, Raoul," said Brocklebank. "I had not thought of a car. And how could you? But did your fellows /see who was in it?" "Not a slim, dark manâ€"like you, but ugly," But at six o‘clock Yellow Dog set out for a walk. He turned off to the Bouâ€" levard de iParis, and thence to the great Avenue. At seven o‘clock he stopped at a corner facing the oncoming traffi¢, and waited there for half an hour. At half past seven a large saloon car comâ€" ing from the North drew up. Before the watchers could cross the road Yellow Dog was in the car and it was moving on. Before they could capture a taxi it had disappeared. "They say an elderly manâ€"no deâ€" tails. Just a monsieur." "My dear friend, I have failed you!! Guichard moaned. Brocklebankâ€"that bhe Camillo Cavour was leaving Cenoa at ten o‘clock in the evening and would reach the docks beâ€" tween eleven and midnight on the 21st; that Yellow Dog had lain in bed late, breakfasted at half past eleven, walked round the Old Port and up the Caneâ€" biere, called at a gunmaker‘s shop and bought a revolver, spent an hour sitting at a cafe at the corner of the Boulevard Garibaldi, returned to La Joliette, dined at Ricard‘s ... Next day the watch on Yellow Dog continued. Guichard regretted that the dirty type was so light a sleeper that Ricard had not been able to appropriate his revolver. Still, that did not matter much, since Yellow Dog, wherever he chanced to be at nine o‘clock that night would be quietly but firmly removed to another place. All went well with the vigil till evenâ€" ing. . "Noâ€"they speak ‘of an old gentleâ€" 'noc.weoould' |...

Habitues of the Rat looked in, saw the conference, retired. "Let‘s get outside," said Brocklebank. "This wants thinking about." The three went silently through the square to the quay. Staring at the silâ€" houette of the ship to which Jacquot pointed, Brocklebank found himself in two minds again. The simple wayâ€"the police. Harrison‘s wayâ€"silence and secrecy. But Harrison‘s vision was imperfect. He had foreseen the possibility that Brocklebank might have to safeguard his Pamela against one crookâ€"but not against two.

"Whyâ€"what do you say, Jacquot?" What he said brought deep lines to Brocklebank‘s face as he stood listenâ€" ing to their quick exchanges. Harriâ€" son‘s foes had an O. C. Intelligence who knew more than Guichard and knew it earlier. For instance, down at the Quai de la Joiuette, everyone had been quite certain that the Camilo Cavour would lie at her usual berth. But Jacquot had discovered ten minutes ago that she was to take up a mooring in the basin for the night and would not communicate with the shore till daylight. And Yelâ€" That meant that Brocklebank could get touch with the ship only by boat, and then surreptitiously. But Yellow Dog had a boat inâ€"waiting, in hiding ing to do? . indeedâ€"and that a fast one. "No, Monsieur Raculâ€"into the Joâ€" liette basin.

Red blouse folded the paper and dropped it on the bench. "When I left you, Monsieur Raoul, I went along to the Quai du Port, just in time to see the dirty pig going out under the transporterâ€"bridge, and fo recognize Leduc‘s boat." "But," cried Guichard, "it was dark." "QOuai, ouailâ€"but there was ‘a lorry waiting for the bridge with lights that showed his ugly visage plain as day." "He‘s gone out to see?" ‘"Holy Blue?" Guichard threw up his arms. "Bill, I haveâ€"what do you say?â€" I have damwell let you down? How do you know it, Jacquot? What hapâ€" pened?". > "He‘s at the telephone," Brocklebank answered. "Back at once." "Good." The man shuffied to a chair and picked up "Le Soleil.‘" Brockleâ€" bank returned to his reflections. Noâ€" thing for it but to match his wits against the Yellow Dog‘s Guichard came back the most crestfallen youth in France. "Monsieur Raoulâ€"‘‘ Guichard shot round at the sound of gruff voice. _ "Whatâ€"Jacquot! You have news?" "I hadâ€"but you‘ve got it. That sacre typeâ€"it was he took out the boat from treasure intact, whatever it was, happy chance would have to smile on him again, since he was hardly a match for two conspirators with a motor car. He could call on the police, get them to put a guard on wharf and ship. But there was Harrison‘s strict injunction against publicity . . . Even Yellow Dog was playing the game of private war according to the rules, or Brocklebank and his two revolvers might have been in the custody of the Marseilles police long ago. BILL HAS DOUBTS Brocklebank, left alone in the empty danceâ€"room, felt two thousand dollars weighing heavily on his mind. Harriâ€" son‘s private war might easily be too hot for him. Harrison‘s enemies were cleverer and better informed than Harâ€" rison believed. If he was to get Miss A grizzled, redâ€"bloused man pushed open the door and looked in. § "Balut!" said he, in a deep bass growl "I look for Monsieur Raoul." ‘"No boat, Bill. Leduc‘s was taken out "What‘s the matter? No boat?" cried "It you‘re game." * "I telephone immediately. Wait here. Furthermore in ongé of the front page sections of the same issue we find the following declaration : "The outstanding reason for the sucâ€" cess of the Workers‘ Coâ€"operative liss in its adherence to the Rochdale prinâ€" ciples, on which basis one vote is alâ€" lowed each shareholder regardless of the number of shares each holds, and the surplus saving divided according to the purchases of the individual cusâ€" tomer." Now this is perfectly satisfactory as far as it goes, but what does the hisâ€" tory of the above coâ€"operative show to substantiate these statements? Slightly over five years ago there occurred a split within the ranks of members of the said Coâ€"op. for the simple reason that despite the allegation of the Coâ€" op. adhering to Rochdale principles, the control of the society was in the hands group previous to Coâ€"op. meetings. The party control of the Cqâ€"op. was so efâ€" fective that even employees were comâ€" pelled to transfer a part of their monthly wages to the coffers of the Owing to these implications a greater part of the pioneer members, mentioned sbo‘ve, rose in opposition to this policy of converting the Coâ€"op. into an auxilâ€" lary of the party.
