CHAPTER IIL VISITOR WITH A PISTOL The man came slowly into the room as he spoke, and the captain saw that he was holding a heavy automatic pistol in his right ‘hand, with its muzzle trained upon his chest. There was a suggestion of feline steaith in his movements; as he advanced slowly towards the other side of the table. He was shabbily dressed in a dustâ€"coloured linen suit, and wore a cheap "panama" hat. His age might have been anything between 35 nd 40.

"Just because we ‘had a little runâ€"in with you in the old days,Cap," he comâ€" plained, "you‘ve got it into your head |that we want to get tough with you. Well, that‘s all wrons. We‘re out for peace and friendly feelings all round, ‘aren‘t we, boys?" The captain looked at them both with the same impassive, face, and then turned to their leader. ‘"Well?" he said. "What‘s it all about? What have you come here for, and what‘s the idea of making free with my house?" â€" "Why, it‘s a little surprise jparty." the other toid him calmly. "Lefty, here, saw you in Antilla a week ago, and he passed the good news on. So we thought we‘d come out and say howdy. I must say though, you don‘t look like you‘re glad to see us. You aren‘t as hospit- able as we‘d "hnoped!" "Glad to. see â€"you!" the captain echoed with a short, barking laugh. "I never was partial to rattlesnakes." The short, swarthy man moved a pace forward with a growl, but Stemer checked him with a gesture. "Dou‘t get ‘sore, Trenchy!" he don‘t mean anything by that, do you, Cap?

The captain: remained standing, eyeing Steiner with the same impassive though watchful expression on his face. ‘The amiable Left took up a position on the verandah «where he could watch all that went on inside t-h_e "Sure we are!" Lefty agreed jocularly from the verandah: and the scowling Frenchy laughed shortly. "That being so," Steiner went on, "let bygones .be byzones. I know we didn‘t always see eye to eye when we were working the coast together, but that‘s all over now. In a racket like that, you‘re bound to bump up against trouble now and again. It‘s busineses competition, butâ€"" "Business competition, my jboot!" the captain interrupted, with sudden harsh impatience. "It was plainâ€" dirty piracy! You rats weren‘t content with legitimate profits! You had to start hiâ€"jackingâ€"and even there you couldn‘t put up a straight fight for it." thin lips tightened, but when ‘he spoke his voice was asesoft as ever. "HMard words, Cap," he said. ‘"But you made out, didn‘t you? We got the sticky end of that dealâ€"not yeu!" "Maybe: but I lost two of the best hands: I ever had through it!" the captain retorted. "Murdered by treachery! I tell you, the best thing I ever did was when I fixed it for the Coastguards to pull you scum in! I ought to have you up for keeps while I was about it, but it did me good to know that you were all booked for a stretch in the pen!" "That‘s all right, Cap:" he said smoothly. thougr his black eyes were hard and menacing. ‘"We could take itâ€"and we did. And since we came out of the pen, things haven‘t been SO0 good either. Frenchy, here, is holding down a job as greaser on a Sugar boat; Lefty is trying to make a living as A oneâ€"man transport corporation; and slinging hash in a lowâ€"down eating joint. That‘s the kind of luck we‘ve hadâ€"till now." Fvenchy half rose with a throated snarl, but Steiner waved him back to his seat again. 46, connecting at North The captain eyed him. in silence, sensing the meaning behind the last two words. He had intended to â€"play dor time in the hope that the two negroes from the sloop would turn up with his baggage and cause a diversion, but unâ€" fortunately he had allowed his temper to get the better of him, and thus lost the opportunity for temporizing. Outâ€" numbered as he was, however, he was still not without hope of being able to turn the tables on them if he was given half a chance. N C mt Nt .. ‘"Datis de â€" Frenchy â€" growled, giving the captain A series of pats over the body. "He don‘t tote a rod." _ _ should he?" Steiner asiked lazily, and he reached out with his left ‘hand and flipped open the wallet. \ In the back compartment were a ‘number of bills in Cuban currency, and he jerked them out, and then explored ‘ the other pockets. These yielded nothâ€" ing more than A few papers and a ‘letter in a sealed envelope, and he | examined them carelessly, commenting ‘ on them as he did so. "Yesâ€"till now," Steiner repeated slowly. "But now, I guess, things are loog(ing up a bit. Just what can you afford to give a few old sideâ€"kickers who‘ve met with misfortunes?" The captain nodded grimly. : "A holdâ€"up, eh?" he said. ‘"Well, vour bad luck is still holding. You‘ll get nothing from me. You‘re too late, Steiner. I‘ve just sdunk what I had in a sugar estate hereâ€"and if you can take that away with you, you‘re welâ€" come to it." ' "We‘re not out for a million dollars, Cap. When folks are down to our level we‘re glad of anything, and what looks like chickenâ€"feed to you is real money to us. So let‘s have.a look at your wallet to start with." "Come and get it!" the captain told him. "I‘m not laying myself. out to help you this tripâ€"and if 1 can say afterwards that you took it from me, it‘ll add a few more years to the stretch you‘re going to get fur this." "That‘s O. K. with us," Steiner agreed pleasantly. And then, to the scowling Frenth: "Frisk him big boyâ€"and ‘do it propserly!" , The man rose, and coming round the table, approached the captain from wehind. With a quick jerk he pulled his jacket down over his biceps, partly imprisoning his arms, and then proâ€" ceeded to go through his pockets methodically. His victim stood perâ€" fectly still under the menace of the gciin muzzle pointed straight at his chest, and in ‘the course of something under a minute the search had ibeen completed, and his possessions lay in a heap on the table before him. They did not amount to very much, consisting of his watch and wallet, a bunch Oof keys, a little loose change, a necketâ€"knife, and a flat leather cigarâ€" EC W cAz as |â€" "Say, dat‘s only about five hundred l each when it‘s split t‘ree ways!" | Frenchy grumbled. \_ _ <"that‘s all." Steiner agreed. ‘But this payingâ€"in check inmnterests me. It seems you paid this lot in cash, Cap? | Where‘d you been keeping it before?" |\ ~The captain looked at him grimly but made no reply. ; "Nothing very thrilling here," he reâ€" marked. "Here‘s a lawyer‘s receipt for five thousand pesi>s in payment for the estate known as Las Palmas. Well, you weren‘t lying about that, Aanyway. Another lawyer‘s receipt, for services performed. What‘s this? A letter to Miss Diana Saiter, of Westfield, Sussex, England. She‘ll be a relaitve, eh? Well, we don‘t aim to look into your private cecrrespondence. And a bank receipt. Now this is more interesting." Ho glanced at the slip of paper and then looked up at the captain. "So you paid in something over nine thousand pesos that day Lefty saw you in Antilla? We ought to have met up with you a litte soonerâ€"before you paid so much of it out again! Still there ought to be aA useful balance." "Dat ain‘t no use if it‘s still in de bank!" Frenchy put in impatiently. "How much dough‘s in dat wad, boss? Dat‘s what I wanna know." "All right! All right! Steiner told him with lazy good humour. He picked Uuip the ‘notes and flicked them over casually. "Here‘s a thousand, and here‘s one, two, three, four nundreds. And 2 fifty. Not a lot, but enough to make the trip worth while for us" % "In an old sock maybe?" Steiner went on slowly. "It looksa like we haven‘t combed out this joint as well as we should, boys, and I‘m wondering whether we couldn‘t persuade the Cap. to come through with a bit more." "How come?" Frenchy demanded in a puzzled voice. "I don‘t get you." "Well, if he can dig up nine thousâ€" and in cash for a bank deposit, maybe there‘s some more around the premâ€" ises."
