He goes there and Puds that Arima. teacher of jiu-jitsu is on the third floor. He calls on Alia, clairvoyant, on the fourth floor. CHAPTER IX. Continued. "I've come up the stairs when his loor was open." "Does he seem to be pretty busy with bis teachings?" "Evenings, he is. And some come in the afternoon. I always know, because they thud on the floor so when they wrestle." "And mornings?" "lie generally seems to be away mornings." "I fancy he's what you'd call a noisy neighbor," said Orme. ' Oh, I don't mind. There's more or less noise up here sometimes." She smiled frankly. . "Spirits can make a lot of noise. I've known them to throw tables over and drag chairs all around ; the room." "Well" Orme was not Interested In spirits "be sure you don't let any body In here until I tome back." Again she nodded. Then she went Into the reception hall and he heard her push the bolt of the door. She did not return, but her steps seemed to move into one of the other rooms. Orme went to the window, pushed It up, and climbed out on the fire escape. He was glad to see that the wall across the court was windowless. He might be observed from the buildings that backed up from the next street, but they apparently belonged to a large storage loft or factory. There were no Idle folk at the windows. The window of the room below was open. This was In one sense an ad vantage and Orme blessed the Japa nese nthletes for their Insistence on fresh air; but on tho other hand, it made quietness essential. Slowly he let himself through the opening in the platform and moved a few steps down tho ladder. Then he crouched and peered through the dingy lace curtains that were swaying in the .breeze. 'itic interior was dim, but Orme suc ceeded in distinguishing the furniture. There were straw mats on the floor and several chairs stood about. At the opposite Ride of tho room was a closed loor. From his knowledge of Madam Alia's apartment, Orme knew that this door opened Into the hall of the build ing, and the square ground glass, with its reversed letters of the athlete's name, told him that it was used as the rhlef entrance. Madam Alia preferred lier clients to enter into another room. In the farther corner of the Interior Orme taw a largo square table. It was covered with a red print cloth, which "hung over the edge, nearly to the floor. If he could reach that table and con ceal himself beneath it, his position -would be better. And now he suddenly remembered that the outline of his head would be visible against the outer light to anyone within. The room seemed to be empty, but at that Instant ho heard a door open. He drew his head up. Some one was moving about the room. The steps went here and there Chairs were shifted, to Judge from the .sound. Hut evidently there was only one person, for Orme could hear no voices. He decided that Arima was preparing for visitors. Again he beard a door open and -close. Had Arima gone out. or had ome other person entered?- Orme -waited a moment, listening; no sound cam from within. He lowered his liead and peered. The room was empty. Arima might return at any moment, but the chance had to be taken Quickly, silently. Orme descended to he platform, slid over the silt and tip toed over to the table. Another In tant and he was under the cover. CHAPTER X. "Find the American." As Orme let tho table cover fall back to its normal position and turned to get himself into a comfortable atti tude his hand touched something soft and yielding. For a moment he was startled, but the sound of a throaty purr and tho realization that bis hand was resting. on fur soon told him that his companion In hiding was a cat. He wondered whether tho Japanese liked pets. From what little he knew of Japanese character it did not seem to him consistent that they should care for animals. Yet here was a peaceful tabby. In order to accommodate himself to his close quarters, Orme had to double his legs back, resting on his thigh and supporting tho upper part of his body with one hand. The cat settled down against his knee. The light filtered redly through the table cover. To his satisfaction he found a small hole, evidently a burn made by some careless smoker. Through this aperture he could look cut. His range of vision included the greater part of the room, excepting the side on which the table stood. He could see the window and several chairs, as well as the door Into tho adjoining room, but the door into the hall was out of view, at his right. While he was looking about, a man came from the next room. Doubtless it was Arima; at least Orme recognized the Japanese who had overcome him in the porter's oflico at the Pcre Mar quette the night before. He stepped into the room with a little smile on his brown face. Seating himself In a chair, he fixed his heels in the rungs and clasped his hands about his knees. He was waiting. Hie black eyc3 rested on the table. To Orme they seemed to be boring through the cover that concealed him, and he hardly dared to breathe, but the Asiatic appeared to observe noth ing unusual. Orme wondered at the unfathomable Intelligence of those eyes. He had often said of the Chinese and Japanese that he did not trust them for the reason that a Caucasian could never tell what they were think ing about. The racial difference In thought processes he found disconcert ing. bell rang. Arima, went to the door, out of view, and opened it. Orme could hear persons mounting the stairs, and presently tho voice of Arima said. "Come In," and the visitors entered the room. Pausing near the door for a moment, they exchanged a few whispered sen tences. Then one of them walked over toward the window. Ormo repressed an exclamation, for the figure that came into view was the figure of Porl tol dapper, assertive. He was dressed as on the night be fore, and his precious high hat was hugged close to his shoulder. His eyes roved with anexaggerated assumption of Important cunning. Presently he threw over his shoulder a rapid sentence in a foreign tongue. It sounded like Spanish, and Orme in ferred that it was a dialect of Portu guese. The answer came from an oily tongue; the voice was Alcatrante's. What were the South Americans do ing here? It was only a few hours since the Japanese, had sot on- Alca trante, yet hero he was in a strong hold of tho enemy and expected! Had the astute diplomat fallen into a trap? Arima was standing, not far from Porltol. h.s faoo was expressionless: Looking from Alcatranl'? to Porltol and back again, he said in English: "The iuo.V honorable gentleman will soon be here." "That Is right," Bald Alcatrante suavely. "Mention no names." Arima nodded slightly. The silence grew Intense. Orme wn? relieved when it was broken by an other ring of the bell and Arima slipped to tho door. 'Alcatrante moved over beside Toritol and whispered a few words, scarcely moving his lips. His face looked yellow by daylight, and the eyes behind the gold, specta cles were heavy-lidded and almost c'osed. Orme inferred that the night had been sleepless for Alcatrante. These observations were interrupted by the entrance of the newcomer. He paused at the threshold, evidently to salute, for Porltol and Alcatrante bowed low. Then quick steps crossed the f.oor and Into view came a nervoiu but assured-looking little figure a Japanese, but undoubtedly a man of great dignity. His manner of sharp authority would be hard to dispute, for it was supported by a personality that seemed to be stronger than Alca trante's. Who ho was Orme could not guess, but that he was somebody of Importance it was easy to see. The stranger bowed again and ad dressed himself to Alcatrante. The conversation waa carried on In French. "It Is well that yon communicated with me, sir," he saia, "we were work ing at cross-purposes when, in reality, our Interests were identical." Alcatrante bowed. i came to thit conclusion late last night," he said. "I do not deny that It would have pleased me to carry the affair through by my self" "Yet, your position would then have . on hit - It Now Remained to Find Something to Take the Tlace of the Abstracted Documents. been stronger." The Japanese smiled I faintly. "Hut," continued Alcatrante, with a slight' grimace, "the activity of your men made that Impossible. I have no lieutenants- such as yours." He shot an ugly gleam at Poritol,-whose sud den assumption of fearsome humility was in strange contrast to his usual self-assurance. "As we hold the documents" the Japanese spoke with great distinctness "you will necessarily admit our ad vantage. That means, you will un derstand, a smaller commission on the next contract." Alcatrante twisted his face Into the semblance of a smile. "Not too small, or we cannot undertake the work," he said. "No, not too small," the stranger agreed calmly, "but smaller than the last. You must not forget that there are others who would gladly do the same work." "Yea, but at best they cannot get the terms we get." "Possibly. That is a matter still to be determined. Meantime we have as sumed that our interests in this docu ment are identical. Let us test it." "One word first," said Alcatrante. "I take It that, if our interests are sympathetic with yours, we may count on your protection?" "Most assuredly." "Then?" "Then we shall see. My fairness is clear In that I give you a sight of the document with myself. I might have denied all knowledge of it." Alcatrante smiled as if to say: "I already knew so much that you could not risk that." The stranger turned to Arima and said something- In Japanese. Arima replied, and the stranger explained to Alcatrante: "I asked about my man Maku. The American struck him on the head last night and injured him. But he Is recovering. He Is trouble some that American. Ormo started. His head bumped against the table. "What's that?" exclaimed Poritol. advancing. "There's something under that table!" lie stooped to lift the cover. One chance flashed into Orme's mind. Quickly he seized the cat. which was still sleeping against his knee, and pushed it under the table cover. It walked out into the rcom, mewing plaintively. "A cat," said Porltol, drawing back. Arima explained in English: "It be longs to lady upstairs. Comes down fire escape. Shoo! Shoo!" He clapped his hands and the animal bounded to' the window-sill and disappeared up the Iron steps. "And now," began the stranger, "shall we examine the documents?" "One moment," 6ald Alcatrante. "I should first like a clear understanding with you some words in private." He moved to a corner, and there the stranger Joined him. They talked in an undertone for several minutes, Al catrante gesturing volubly, the stran ger nodding now and then, and inter jecting a few brief words. What was going on was mere than ever a mystery to- Orme. The stranger's reference to "the next coo tract" strengthened the surmise that the documents in the envelope wero connected with a South American trade concession. Alcatrante had plainly conc'.udcd that his interests and those of the Japanese were Identi cal. Ho must have communicated with the strange Japanese the first thing in th morning.' That would ac count for his falluro to call at the Pere Marquette at ten o'clock. Learning that the bill had been taken from Orme, and that the coveted documents were In the possession of the Japanese, hu had no object In keeping his ap pointment. As for Poriiol. he had be come a figure of minor Importance. Hut Orme did not let these questions long engage him, for he had made o discovery. Where hli head bumped against the table, the board above him solid, as he had supposed. rattled strangely. At the moment he , could not Investigate, tut a icon at the ci. '. ilWitti.t r.. had satisfied the suspicions of Poritol, and Alcatrante and the stranger had retired to their corner, he twisted his head back and examined, tho . wood above him. The table had a drawer. From the room outside this drawer was con cealed by the cloth cover, and Orme had not suspected Its existence. Now, the table was cheaply made. The drawer was shallow and narrow, and it was held in position, under the table, by an open framework of wood. When It was pushed in, it was stopped at the right place by two cleats; there was no solid strip to prevent its being pushed In too far. Orme put his hand to the back of the drawer. There was a space between it and the table-top. Cautiously he pushed his hand through the opening. His fingers touched a flat object a pad of paper, or the tnougnt made nis neart beat a large, thick envelope. Could Arima have used the drawer as a hiding place? Slowly he got tho edge of the object between his first and second fingers and drew it a little way toward the back of the drawer. A moment later be had it under his eyes. Yes, it was a long envelope of heavy linen, and there were bulky papers within. The gummed flap was toward him. He was interested to note that, important though the documents seemed to be, the envelope was not sealed with wax. lie remembered what the girl had said: her father's name was written on the address side. He had only to turn it over to learn who she was. In the circumstances such an act might be justified. Hut she had not wished him to know and he would even now re spect her' wish and keep hi3 own prom ise to her first. His first thought was to slip the en velope into bis pocket, but It occurred to hlrn In time that, If it did Indeed contain the documents concerning which Alcatrante and the stranger were disputing, it would be sought and missed long before he could escape from the room. So, taking a iencil from his pocket, he inserted it under the corner of the flap and slowly worked the flap free. The strength of the linen prevented any tearing. He removed the contents of tho en velope two folded sheets of parch ment paper, held together by an clastic bnnd and thrust them Into the Inside pocket of his coat. All this was done swiftly and noiselessly. It now remained to And something to take the place of the abstracted docu ments. In his pocket were some print ed prospectuses of the mine which he had come to Chicago to investigate. In shape and thickness they were not dissimilar to the documents which he had taken. He slipped tne prospectuses into the envelope and, wetting his finger, rubbed It along the gummed surface of the flap. Enough glue re mained to make the flap adhere, after a little pressure. The Job was by no means perfect, but It was not likely to be detected. At that moment Alcatrante raised his voice and said, stilf in French: "You are sure, then, that this will not delay the game, but end it?" "Quito sure," said the Japanese. "Unless tho documents are signed be fore midnight tonight nothing can be done for some time. We have the Germans fixed. They will do what they have thus far agTred to do, but if any technical hitch arises, such as a failure to sign within the time limit. they will decline to renew negotla tlons. That was all we could get from them, but It Is enough now." "And for other ships," said AIca trante, "the commission 6hall be fire hundred thousand." "Five hundred thousand. Seven hun dred and fifty wan too much." "Five hundred thousand in gold." "In gold." ' Orme slipped the envelope back Into the drawer and put hia eye to the hole In the cover. Ilia position was now .rore critical, for to open the drawer nd gt the envelope Arima would iave to lift the table cover. RAY WAILTER-JP The stranger turned to Arlma. "Give ! us the envelope," he aald. Arima approached the table. Orme crowded back against the wall at far aa he could, knowing that the chances of escaping discovery were strongly against him. Dut he was caved by the very eagerness of tho others. They all crowded about Arima, as he lifted the cover, opened the drawer and took out the envelope. So close did they stand that Orme was out of their angle of vision. The table cover fell again, and he was safe. He resumed bis position at the peep-hole. The stranger stepped to the middle of the room, the others gathering around him. With a quick jerk he ore the envelope open, and taking orJ the papers, ran his eye over them rapidly. He uttered an exclamation. What Is it?" said Alcatrante. The South American's hand was shaking, and perspiration stood out on his fore head. The Japanese snarled. "Tricked! They've fooled us. VTiat honorable burglar of yours got the wrong en velope." Alcatrante snatched the napers. " 'Prospectus,' " he read, 'of the Last Dare Mining Company.' Dut I do not understand." The Japanese glared at him angrily. "If you had kept out of this business," he snapped, "and let Maku attend to it, everything would have been right. Now your burglars have spoiled it." He snatched back the harmless pros pectuses and tore them In two, throw ing the fragments to the floor and grinding them under his heel. Arima spoke. "Pardon, honorable sir, Maku say the right envelope was taken from the safe. Maku know. "Ha! Then It was you who were tricked outwitted. That American reached the tree before you last evening and substituted these papers. Go back to Japan, Arima. I don't need you." Arlma bowed submissively. As for the stranger, bis rage gave way to despair. "What shall I say to the emperor?" he muttered. "What shall I say to the emperor?" Then his feelings came again under control; he looked calmly at Alca trante. "Well." he said, "what would you suggest?' Alcatrante's face was a puzzle. Every shade of doubt, disappointment, anger, suspicion and shrewd deduction passed over it. He was putting into play that marvelous power of concentration on subtle Issues that had enabled him to play so brilliantly the role of interna tional under-dog., At last he smiled and spoke. "Find the American," he said. Suddenly there was a knock at the door. Arima looked at his master, who nodded Indifferently and said: "Yes, see who it is. It can do no harm now." , .. Orme heard the door open. What startled him 'first was the action of Poritol, who stepped back to the wall, his jaw dropping, his face a picture of embarrassment and fright. Alcatrante and the stranger showed amazement. For a moment they stood thus in silence, and then from the door came a clear voice: "What? You here, Mr. Alcatrante? And the Japanese minister?" Orme almost sprang from his hiding place. The voice was the voice of the girl! CHAPTER XI. The Way Out. The sound of the girl's voice brought the men in the room to life. Her words were shaded to a tone of fear less scorn which must have bitten deep, for Alcatrante and the Japanese minister looked like schoolboys caught in wrong-doing. The South American gnawed at his lip; the Japanese looked at the floor, and Orme now realized that the manner which had seemed 60 indicative of a masterful personality was the manner which springs from power the manner tnat is built upon the assurance of a tremendous back ing. The tension was broken by Porltol. The little man's dismay suddenly gave way to an eager and voluble excite ment, and he rushed across the room, exclaiming: "Oh, my dear miss " "No names." commanded Alcatrante, harshly, turning to his subordinate. "My dear young lady." continued Porltol breathlessly. "I am the victim of your misunderstanding. You will permit me to explain." She answered with an even, cutting edge In her voice: "You cannot ox plain, Mr. Poritol." 'Hut " he began, blind to her mean Ing. "I do not care to hear you," she said; and Poritol slunk back to hit former position. From his face It was clear that he had no desire except to get away. Meantime Alcatrante aroused him self. 'My friend here" he indicated the Japanese "and myself are here on business which concerns our two na tions. Your appearance, I presume. Is due to a desire to engage the profes sional services of Mr. Arlma. Or per haps you were trying to find the for tune teller upstairs." He barely re prensed his sneer. The girl did not .answer. She re mained by the door,, and but for the attitudes of the others Orme would not have known but that rbo had gone. As It was, he could read In their bearing the disconcerting eZects of ber contin ued disdain. The Japanese spoke. "Will you en ter, miss, or tsh&U we direct you on your way? Arima will come out and talk with you, if you t o wish." Still no answer. To Orme, In bis hiding, there was comethins uncanny In her failure to respond. Dut bo could picture her Truth, calm in the pres ence of subterfuge. "Will you tot state your desire T Again the Japanese. He vras tailing now, with tho false ,oUtcness ol bis race. And then she epoke: "That envelope on the floor was stolen from my fntb er's home. It bears ay lather's name." Before Alcatrante could ctoo bim. little Porltol, with tome vague bope of mating amends, bad snatched op tbt torn envelope and taken it to her. He returned to the range of Ormc'a vlston with an air of virtuous Importance, "The contents," raid thw rlrl "where are the papers T Alcatrante and the Japanese looted at each other. It was as if they tald, "In view of ccr failure vre might a well mate a clean breast of Dut Alcatrante wa too cumins to take the Initiative in confeetlcn. He Itft that to the Japanese, rrho rjvok tsbt-jl-tatlngly. "The only papers In the envelope were these." He picked np the torn prospectuses from the floor and held them extended In hia hand. "Our sur prise is as great as yours." "Do you expect me to believe that?" "Whether you believe it or not. my dear young lady, it Is true," There was a moment of silence, then the Japanese continued: Ve bave rea son to think that the envelope was for a time last night In the possetslon of an American, and that he substituted these circulars for whatever the ea velope may have held." Orme 'a Impulse to declare himself was almost Irresistible. A mrn whose Instincts were less cautions would have thrown the table over and ranged him self beside the girl. Orme was not fearful, but he knew that the chances of a successful outcome would be les sened by exposure. Even if he and the girl got safely from the room, there would be a pursuit, and tne risk of losing the papers would be great. As for the girl, she clearly was in no danger. These men would not harra her. Dut would the assertion of the Japa nese lead her to doubt Orme? Would she believe that he had actually re covered the papers the night before and kept them for his own purposes? He remembered that he bad given ber only the scantiest account of bis ad venture at the tree, for be bad wished to spare her the details of an incident that meant her disappointment as well as his own. She might now readily at tribute his reticence to a Retire to conceal something. And then came her -oice. Her first words brought a glow to Orme'i heart: "I know that you are mistaken. No American has those papers." Orme breathed his relief. Then she added the dubious word "Unless " So she did doubt him after all. Well, he could not blame her. The scene In tho rcom the frankness of the Japa nese, which could only be attributed to discomfiture; the empty envelope; the torn prospectuses on the floor, all these conditions pointed to the truth of the explanation she had heard. On the other hand, there was his ap pearance on the lake, an hour or more alter the episode on the campus. Might it not occur to her that, had he a'ready secured tho papers, he would ha Ye had no object in the further pursuit of the Japanese? Dut, perhaps she would think that he was 3ccking Arima to sell the papers back to him; or that. In spite of his appearance of surprise, he had been a witness of her abduc tion and had gone out on the water to save her. There wcro ro many things she might think! Indeed, that dubious word "unless" might even signify. "unless he has ecctred the papers since I last saw him.' Jut no; she would gather frcrn thj cltuation in which she found her enemies that the envelope had not teen out of their pos session since it was taken from the tree. Orme shut his lips hard. Her doubt of him wuld have to be en dured, even though It shattered hia pleasant dream of her complete and sympathetic understanding. Alcatrante, meantime, was studying the girl with curioua eyes. Hia look was both perplexed and admiring. (TO BK CONTIN'UKIM Accompaniments of dating.

The largest item of e& pense in 1910 was for treatment fa sanatoria and hospitals, $11,376,50(1 be ing expended for that purpose, or more than double the amount for 1999. The anti-tuberculosis association spent $760,500, and the tuberculosfas dispensaries $889,000. The special mu nicipal and state expenditures aggre gated 1,750,000. The statement declares that th most significant fact in the survey of the year's work is the Increase in tb percentage of public money spent While in 1909 G3.5 per cent, of th total expenditure was from federal, state, municipal or county funds, 63. per cent, came from public appropria tions in 1910. The actual amount ot public money spent in tuberculosis work this past year was $9,267,900. or more than double the amount from, this game source In 1909.
