TEE PORT OF
MISSING MEN

COPYRIGHT. 1907. BY THE B
The rain wos soaking Armltnge thor
oughly, but Hs persistent beat covered
iny alisht noises made by bis own
movements, and be ' was now Intent
upon the little room and Its occupants.
Qe observed tlie care with which tbe
Van kept close to bis coat, and be pon
lered, tbe matter as be bung upon tbe
, balcony.' If. Chauvenet was on bis way
to America It was possible tbat be
would carry with blm tbe Important
paper whose loss bad caused so much
anxiety to tbe Austrian minister. If
so, where was it during bis stay In
Geneva?
The old man's death Is only tbe first
step. We require a succession of
deaths."
"We require three, to be explicit, not
mora or less. We should be fortunate
If tbe remaining two could be accom
plished as easily as Stroebel's."
"He was a beast Be is well dead."
."Tbat depends on the way you look
at.lt They seem really to be mourn
ing tbe old beggar at Vienna. It la the
way of a people. . They like to be ruled
by a savage band. The people, aa you
have heard me say before, are fools."
The last speaker was a young man
whom Armitage had never seen before.
Be was a decided blond, with close
trimmed - straw colored beard and
lightly curling hair. Opposite him,
and facing the door, sat CbauTenet
On the table between them were de
canters and liqueur glasses.
,T: am going to America at once."
said Chauvenet holding his filled glass
toward a brass lamp of an old type
that hung from the celling. .
"It Is probably just as well," said
the other. "There's work to do there.
We must not forget our more legiti
mate business in the midst of these
pleasant aide issues."
The field is easy. After our delight
ful continental capitals, where, as you
know, one 1s never quite sure of one
self, it is pleasant to breath tho demo
cratic airs of Washington." remarked
Chauvenet
"Particularly so, my dear friend,
when one is blessed with your delight
ful social gifts. I envy you your ca
pacity for making others happy."
There was a keen irony hi the fel
low's tongue, and the edge of it evi
dently touched Chauvenet, who scowl
ed and bent forward, with hta fingers
n the table.
-."Enough of that. If you please."
"As you will, carino, but you will
pardon me for offering my condolences
en the regrettable departure of la belle
Americaine. If you had not been so
Intent on matters of state you would
undoubtedly have found her here. As
It is, you are now obliged to see her
on her native soil. A month m Wash
ington may do much for you. She is
beautiful and reasonably rich. Her
brother, the tall captain, is said to be
the best horseman in the American
army.
"Humph! He is an ass," ejaculated
Chauvenet .
A servant now appeared bearing a
fresh bottle of cordial. He was distin
guished by a small head upon a tall
and powerful body and bore little re
semblance to a house servant While
he brushed the cigar ashes from the
table the men continued their talk
without heeding him.
Chauvenet and his friend had spoken
from the first in French, but in ad
dressing some directions to the servant,
the blond, who assumed the role of
host, employed a Servian dialect
"I think we were saying that the
mortality list in certain directions will
have to be stimulated a trifle before
we can do our young friend Francis
any good. Ton have business in Amer
ica,' carino. That' paper we filched
from old Stroebel strengthens our hold
on Francis, but there is still that ques
tion as to Karl and Frederick Augus
tus. Our dear Francis is not satisfied.
Be Wishes to be quite sure that his
dear father and brother are dead. We
must reassure him, dearest Jules."
"Don't be a fool, Durand. You never
eem to understand that tbe United
States of America is a trifle larger
than a barnyard. And I don't believe
those fellows are over there. They're
probably lying in wait here somewhere
ready to take advantage of any oppor
tunitythat is, if they are alive. A
man can hardly fall to be impressed
v 1th the fact that so few lives stand
between him and"
"The heights the heights!" And tho
young man, whom Chauvenet called
Durand, lifted his tiny glass airily.
"Tea,- the heights," replied Chauve
net a Uttle dreamily.
"But that declaration that docu
ment! ; Ton have never honored me
with a glimpse, but you have it put
safely away, I dare say."
"There is no place but one that I
dare risk. It is always within easy
coach, my dear friend." '
"Tou will do well to destroy that doc
ument It is much better out of tbe
way."
"Your deficiencies in the matter of
wisdom are unfortunate. That paper
constitutes our chief asset my dear
associate. So long as we have it we
are able to keep dear Francis in order.
Therefore we shall hold fast to it, re
membering that we risked much in re
moving it from the lamented Stroebel's
"Do you say 'risked much?' My val
ned neck, that is all 7 ssld the other.
"Ton and Winkelried are without grat
itude." "Tea will do well," said Chauvenet
to keep an eye open In Vienna for the
unknown. If you bear murmurs in
Hungary one of thee flue days!
Nothing has happened for some time;
.therefore much tasy Serpen.
He glanced at his wr.tch. '
"I have work In rails before sailing
O B M E R R I L L COMPANY
for New York. Shall we dlscuse the
matter of those Terurian claims? Tbat
is business. These other affairs are
more In the nature of delightful diver
sions, my dear comrade."
They drew nearer tbe table, and Du
rand produced a box ot pnpers, over
which he bent with serious attention.
Armitage bnd heard practically all of
their dialogue and, what was of equal
interest, bad beeu able to study the
faces and leant the tones of voice of
the two conspirators. He was cramp
ed from bis position on tbe narrow bal
cony and wet and chilled by the rain,
which was now slowly abating. He
had learned much that he wished to
know and with an ease that astonished
him, and be was well content to with
draw with gratitude for bis good for
tune. ;
His legs were numb, and he clung
close to the railing of the little ladder
for support as he crept toward tbe
area. At tbe second story his foot
slipped on the wet iron, smooth from
long use, and be stumbled down sev
eral steps before he recovered himself.
He listened a moment heard nothing
but the tinkle of tbe rain In the spout
then continued his retreat.
As he stepped out upon the brick
courtyard he was seized from behind
by a pair of strong arms that clasped
him tight In a moment he was thrown
across the threshold of a door into
an nnlighted room, where his captor
promptly sat upon him and proceeded
to strike a light
ChapterV
A LOST CIGARETTE CABB.
HE man clinched Armi
tage about the body with
his legs while he struck a
match on a box he pro
duced from his pocket
The suddenness with
which he had been flung
into the kitchen bad knocked . the
breath out of Armitage, and the huge
thighs of his captor pinned his arms
tight The match spurted fire, and he
looked Into the face of the servant
whom he had seen In the room above.
His round head was covered with short
wirelike hair that grew low upon his
narrow forehead. Armitage noted, too,
the man's bull-like neck, small' sharp
eyes and bristling mustache. The fit
ful flash of the match disclosed the
rough furniture of a kitchen. The
brick flooring and his wet Inverness
lay cold at Armitage's back.
The fellow growled an execration in
Servian. Then with ponderous diffi
culty asked a question in German.
"Who are you and what do you want
here?"
Armitage shook his head and replied
in English:
"I do not undestand."
The man struck a series of matches
that he might scrutinize his captive's
face, then ran his hands over Armi
tage's pockets to make sure he had no
arms. The big fellow was clearly puz
zled to find that he had caught a gen
tleman in water soaked evening clothes
lurking in the area, and as the matter
was beyond his wits it only remained
for him to communicate with his mas
ter. This, however, was not so readily
accomplished. He had reasons of his
own for not calling out and there were
difficulties in the way of holding the '
prisoner and at tbe same time bring
ing down the men who had gone to the
most distant room in the house for ;
their own security. I
Several minutes passed during which
the burly Servian struck his matches
and took account of his prisoner, and j
meanwhile Armitage lay perfectly still, j
his arms fast numbing from the rough
clasp of the stalwart servant's legs. I
There was nothing to be gained by a ;
struggle in this position, and he knew j
that the Servian would not risk losing i
him In the effort to summon the odd
pair who were bent over their papers
at the top of the house. The Servian
was evidently a man of action.
"Get up," he commanded, still In
rough German, and he rose in the dark
and Jerked Armitage after hint. There :
was a moment of silence in which Ar- i
mitage shook and stretched himself, j
and then the Servian struck another i
match and held it close to a revolver :
which he held pointed at Armitage's j
head. j
"I will shoot" he said again in his I
halting German. j
"Undoubtedly you will!" and some
thing In the fellow's manner caused ;
Armitage to laugh. He had been ;
caught and he did not at once see any 1
safe issue out of his predicament, but i
his plight had its preposterous side and j
the ease with which he had been taken '
at the very outset of his quest tonched ;
his humor. Then he sobered instantly '!
and concentrated his wits npon the lm- !
mediate situation. J
The Servian backed away, with a
match upheld in one hand and the lev-1
eled revolver in the other, leaving Ar- 1
mitage In the middle of the kitchen. j
"I am going to light a lamp, and If j
you move I will kill you," admonished j
tbe fellow, and Armitage beard his :
feet scraping over the brick floor of tbe '
kitchen as he backed toward a table
that stood against . the wall near the
outer door. ,
Armitage stood perfectly still. The
neighborhood and the house itself were
quiet. The two men In the third story
room were probably engrossed with the
business at which Armitage had left
them, and his immediate affair was
with the Servian alone. The fellow
continued to mumble his threats, but
-4eZ
Xrmltage bad resolved to play tbe part
of an Englishman who understood no
German, and be addressed tbe man
sharply In English several tiroes to sig
nify tbat be did not understand.
Tbe Servian half turned toward bis
prisoner, tbe revolver In bis left band,
while with tb fingers of his right be
felt laboriously for a lamp that bad been
revealed by the fitful flashes of the
matches. It ia not an easy matter to
light a lamp when you have only one
hand to work with, particularly when
you are obliged to keep an eye on a
mysterious prisoner of whose character
you are ignorant, and It was several
mlnntes before tbe Job was done.
"You. will go to that .oroer," and
the Servian translated for bis prison
er's benefit with a gesture of the re
volver. "Anything to please you, worthy fel
low," replied Armitage, and be obeyed
with amiable alacrity. The man's ob
ject was jo get hlrn as far from the
Inner door as possible while he called
help from above, which was, of course,
the wise thing from bis point of view,
as Armitage recognized.
Armitage stood with his back against
a rack of pots. Tbe table was at his
left and beyond It the door opening
upon the court. A barred window wa$
at his right Opposite him was another
door that communicated with the In
terior of the house and disclosed the
lower steps of a rude stairway leading
upward. The Servian now closed and
locked the outer kitchen door - with
care.
Armltnge had lost his bat In the
area; his light walking stick lay in the
middle of the floor; his Inverness coat
hung wet and bedraggled about him;
his shirt was crumpled and soiled. But
his air of good humor and his tame ac
ceptance of capture seemed to Increase
the Servian's caution, and he backed
away toward the inner door with his
revolver still pointed at Armitage's
head.
He began calling lustily up the nar
row stairwell In Servian, changing In
a moment to German. He made a
ludicrous figure, ns he held his revolver
at arm's length, craning his neck Into
the passaga and howling until he wns
red In the face. He paused to listen,
then renewed his cries, while Armi
tage, with his back against the rack of
pots, studied tbe room and made his
plans.
"There Is a thief here! I have caught
a thief r yelled the Servian, now exas
perated by the silence above. Then, as
he relaxed a moment and turned to
make sure'that his revolver still cov
ered Armitage, there was a sudden
sound of steps above, and a . voice
bawled angrily down the stairway:
"Zmal, stop your noise and tell me
what's the trouble."
It was the voice of Durand speaking
In the Servian dialect and Zmal opened
his mouth to explain.
As the big fellow roared his reply
Armitage snatched from tbe rack a
heavy Iron boiling pot. swung It high
by the bail with both hands and let It
Armitage ran Ms hand through the
pocket.
fly with all his might at the Servian's
head, upturned in the earnestness of
his bawling. On the instant the re
volver roared loudly In the narrow
kitchen, and Armitage seized the brass
lamp and flung It from him upon the
hearth, where it fell with a great clat
ter without exploding.
It was instantly pitch dark. The
Servian had gone down like a felled ox,
and Armitage, at the threshold, leaped
over him into the hall past the rear
stairs, down which the men were stum
bling, cursing volubly as they came.
Armitage had assumed the existence
of a front stairway, and now that be
was launched upont an unexpected ad
venture he was In a humor to prolong
it for a moment even at further risk.
He crept along a dark passage to the
front door, found and turned the key
to provide himself with a ready exit,
then, as he heard the men from above
stumble over tbe prostrate Servian, he
bounded up the front stairway, gained
the second floor, then tbe third and
readily found by its light the room
that he had observed earlier from the
outside.
Below there was smothered confu
sion and the crackling of matches as
Durand and Chauvenet sought to grasp
the unexpected situation that confront
ed them. The big servant Armitage
knew, would hardly be able to clear
matters for them at once, and he hur
riedly turned over the packets of pa
pers that lay on the table. They were
claims of one kind and another against
several Smith and Central American
republics, chiefly for naval and mili
tary supplies, and he merely noted
their general character. They were, on
tbe face of It, certified accounts In the
usual manner of business. On the back
of each had been printed with a rubber
stamp the words: "Vienna, Paris,
Washington. Chauvenet et Durand."
Armitage snatched up the coat which
Chauvenet had so carefully placed on
the bark of bis chair, ran his hands
through the pockets, found them
empty, then gnthered the garment
tightly In his hands, laugfued a Uttle to
himself to feel the papers sewn Into
the lining and laughed again as he tore
the lining loose and drew forth a flat
linen envelope brilliant with three
seals of red wax.
