S, VAN DINE. . 3 The Narrator THIS HAS HAPPENED Vance eliminates Miss St. Clair as a suspect and he inter- venes with Markham against arresting Leacock, when some of Pfyfe's statements strengthen the case against the captain. It is brought out that Pfyfe had forg-4 Alvin Benson’s name to a check. Vance makes an appoint- ment for Markham with Paula Banning. NOW BEGIN THE STORY eoee CHAPTER XXXVIII “Funny,” murmured Vance, “I thought of that myself. . . . That's why I ‘phoned Pfyfe last night that he could return to Long Island.” “You ‘phoned him—!” “Awf'lly sorry and all that,” Vance apologized. “But you'd gone to bed, Sleep was knitting up your ravell'd sleave of care; and I couldn't bring myself to disturb you. ... Pfyfe was so grateful, ‘too. Most touchin’. Said his wife also would be grateful. He was pathetically consid’rate about Mrs. Pfyfe. But fear he'll need all his velvety fore! Powers to explair. his ab- sence, , “In what other quarters have you involved me during my absence?” asked Markham acrimoniously. “That's all,” replied Vance, rising and strolling to the window. He_ stood looking out, smoking thoughtfully. When he turned back to the room, his bantering air had gone. He sat down facing Mark- ham. “The Major has pr: ted to 1-” he said, “that he knows more about this affair than he has told. You naturally can’t push the point, in view of his hon’rable at- titude in the matter. “And yet, he’s willing for you to find out what he knows, as long as he dovsn’t tell you himself,—that was unquestionably the stand he took last night, Now, I believe there's a way you can find out with- out calling upon him to go against his principle. ... You recall Miss Hoffman’s story of the eavesdrop- ping; and you also recall that he told you he heard a conversation which, in the light of Benson’s mur- der, became significant. “It's quite prob’ble, therefore, that the Major’s knowledge has to do with something connected with the business of the firm, or at least with one of the firm’s clients.” Vance slowly lit another cigaret. “My suggestion is thi: all up the Major, and ask permission to Firearms expert ically admit- send « man to take a peep at his ledger accounts and his piabane and sales books. “Tell him you want to find out about the transactions of one of his clients. intimate that Miss St. Clair—or Pfyfe, if you like. I have a strange mediumistic feeling that, in this way. you'll get on the track of the person he’s shielding. And I’m also assailed by the premoni- tion that he'll welcome your inter- est in his ledger.” The plan did not appeal to Mark- ham as feasible ox fraught with pos- sibilities; and it was evident he dis- liked r.aking such a request of Ma- jor Benso~ But so determined was Vance, so 2arnestly did he argue his point, that in the end Markham acquiesced. a “He was quite willing to let me scnd a man,” said Markham, hang- ing up the receiver. “Ir fact, he seen.ed e ver to give me every as- sistance.” “I though: he’d take’kindly to the suggestion.” said Vance, “Y’ see, if you discover for yourself whom he cus; y, it relieves him of the havin’ ta‘tled.” Markham rang for Swacker. “Call up Stitt and tell him I want to see him here before noon—that I have an immediate job for him.” “Stitt,” Markham explained to Vance, “is the head of a firm of pul lic acco over in the PAGE appointment you: made for me,” he complained to Vance. Then: “Come, Stitt, I'll take you down with us in the jucges’ private elevator.” “If you don’t mind,” .interposed Vance, “Mr. Stitt and I will forego the honor, nd mingle with the com- moners in the public lift. We'll meet you downstairs.” Taking thc accountant by the arm, he led him out through the main waiting-room, It was 10 minutes, however, before he jained us. We took the he gots Ay Seventy- second street and w: up West End avenue to Mrs. Paula Banning’s address. She lived in a small apart- ment-house beg around the corner in Seventy-first street. As we stood before the door, wait- ing for cn answer to our ring, @ strong odor of Chinese incense drift- ed out to us. “Ah! That facilitates matters,” said Vance, sniffing. “Ladies who burn joss-sticks are invariably sen- timental.” Mrs. Banning was a tall, slightly adipose woman of indeterminate age, with straw-colored hair an. a pink- and-white complexion. Her face in repose possessed @ youthful and vacuous innocence; but the expre.sion was only superficial. Her eyes, a very light blue, were hard; and a slight puffiness her cheek-bones and beneath her chin attested to years of idle and indulgent living. She was not unattractive, how- as- fice} ever, in a vivid, flamboyant way; and her manner, when she ushered us into her over-furnished ar 1 rococo living-room, was one of easy-going good-f Nowship. When we were seated and Mark- ham had apologized for our intru- sion, Vance at once assumed the role of interviewer. Durine his opening explanatory remarks he appraised the woman carefully, as if seeking to determine the best means of approaching her for the informetion he wan’ After a few minutes of verbal re- connoitering he asked Permission to smoke, and offered Mrs. Banning one of his cigarets, which she ac- cepted, Then he smiled at her in a spirit of appreciative geniality, and relaxed comfortably in his chair. He conveyed the impression that he was fully prepared to sympa- die with anything she might tell © im. “Mr. Pfyfe strove very hard to keep you entirely out of this affair,” said Vance; “and we fully bad re ciate his delicacy in so doing. But certain circumst’nces connected with Mr. Benson’s death have inadver- tently 3 .wvolved de in the case; and you can best help us and yourself— and particularly Mr. Pfyfe—by tell- ing us what we want to know, and trusting to our discretion and un- derstanding.” He had emphasized Pfyfe’s name, giving it a significant intonation; and the woman had glanced down uneasily. Her apprehension was apparent, and when she looked up into Vance’s eyes, she was asking herself: How much does he know? as plainly as if she had spoken the words audibly. “I can’t imagine what you want me to tell you,” she said, with an effort at astonishment. “You know that Andy was not in New York that night.” (Her designating of the elegant and superior Pfyfe as “Andy” sounded almost like lese-majeste.) “He didn’t arrive in the city until nearly 9 the next morning.” “Didn't you réad in the news- papers about the gray Cadillac that was parked in front of Benson’s house?” Vance, in putting the ques- tion, imitated her own astonishment. She smiled confidently. “That was Andy’s car. He took the 8 o'clock train to New York the next morning. He said it was lucky that he did, seeing that a ma- chine just like his had been at Mr. Benson’s the night before.” She had spoken with the sincerity of complete assurance. It was" evi- dent that Pfyfe had lied to her on | this point. Vance did not disabuse her; in fact, ke gave her to understand that he accepted her explanation, and consequently dismissed the idea Pfyfe’s presence in New York on the night of the murder. “I had in mind a connection of a somewhat diff’rent nature when I mentioned you and Mr. Pfyfe as having been drawn into the case. I refer-ed to a personal relationship between you and Mr. Benson.” (To Be Continued The term “hair's breadth,” now used to denote an almost infinitesi- mal space, was at one an actual measure. It was the width of sixteen hairs laid side by side.
