The rooms are vio- ‘ently disordered. The medical examiner gives it as his opinion that the murder was committed | about 11:30 the night preceding. CHAPTER V “I guess that’s all, Doc,” Heath decided. “I'll get the body to the mortuary right away. Let’s have | the post-mortem as soon as you can,” “You'll get a report in the morn- ing.” And despite his apparent eagerness to be off, Doctor Dore- mus stepped into the bedroom and shook hands with Heath and Mark- ham and Inspector Moran before he hurried out. Heath followed him to the door, and I heard him direct the officer outside to telephone the department of public welfare to send an ambu- lance at once for the girl's body. “Such detachment!” Vance said to Markham. “Here are you stewing most Ccistressingly over the passing of one damsel fair and frail, and that blithe medicus i: worrying only over a sluggish liver brought on by early rising.” “What has he to be upset over?” complained Markham. “The news- papers are not riding him with spurs.... And by the way, what was the point of your questions about the torn dress?” Vance lazily inspected the tip of his cigaret. “Consider,” he said. ‘The lady was evidently taken by surprise; for, had there been a struggle be- forehand, she ...uld not have been strangled from behind while sitting down. Theiefore, her gown an@ corsage were undoubtedly intact at the time she was seized. But— despite the conclusion of your dash- ing Paracelsus—the damage to her toilet was not of a nature that could have been self-inflicted in her struggle for air. If she had felt the cons’ ion of the gown across her breast} she would have snatched the bodice itself Ly putting her fingers inside the band. But, if you noticed, her bodice was intact; the only thing that had been torn was the deep lace flounce on the outside; and it had been torn, or rather ripped, by a strong later: pull: -rhereas, in the circumstances, any wrench on her part would have been downward or outward.” Inspector Moran was listening in- tently, but Heath seemed restless and impatient; apparently he re- garded the torn gown as irrelevant to the simple main issue. “Moreover,” Vance went on, “there is che corsage. If she herself had torn it off while being strangled, it would doubtless have fallen to the floo.; fot, remember, she of- fered considerable resistance. Her body was twisted sidewise; her knee was drawn up, and one slip- per_had been kicked off. : “Now, no bunch of silken posies is going to remain in a lady’s lap ‘during such a commotion, Even when Izdies sit stitl, their gloves and hand-bags and handkerchiefs and programs and serviettes are “orever sliding off of their laps on to the floor, don’t y’ know.” “But if your argument’s correct,” protested Markham, “then the tear- ing of the lace and the snatching off of the corsage could have been done only after she 1s dead. And I can’t see any object in such sense- less_vandalism.” “Neither can I,” sighed Vance. “It’s all devilish queer.” Heath looked at him sharply. “That’s the second time you've said that. But there’s nothing what, you'd call queer about this mess. It is a_straight-away case.” He spoke with an overtone of insist- ence, like a man arguing against his own insecurity of opinion. “The dress mizht’ve been torn almost any time.” he went on stubbornly. “And the flower might've, got caught in the lace of her skirt so it couldn’t roll off.” “And how would you explain the erview Addition.

But there’s a reason for most of the other things having been disturbed—like the drawers and pigeonholes and closets and vases. * They all indicate a search; they're consistent with a raid for foot. But that eae now, d’ ye see, doesn’t fit into the picture. It’s @ false note. It was standing on the opposite end of the table to where the’ murder was’ committed, at least five feet away; and it couldn't possibly have been knotk- ed over in the struggle. . . . No, it won't do. It’s got no business being upset, any 1.ore than that pretty mirror over the gate-legged table has any business being broken. That’s why it’s queer.” “What about those chairs and the little table?” asked Heath, pointing to two small gilded chairs which had been overturned, and a fragile tip-table that lay on its side near the piano. “Oh, they fit into the ensemble,” returned Vance. “They're all light vieces of furniture which could eas- ily have been knocked over or thrown aside, by the hasty gentle- man who rifled these rooms.” “The lamp might have been knocked over in the same way,” argued Heath. 4 Vance shook his head. “Not ten- able, Sergeant. It has a_ solid bronze base, and isn’t at all top- heavy; and being set well back on the table, it wasn’t in any one’s way. . . . That lamp was upset deliberately.” The sergeant was silent for a while. sed pated had taught him not to underestimate Vance’s ob- servations; and, I must confess, as I _loo'ed at the lamp lying on its side on the end of the library- table, well removed from any of the other disordered objects in the room, Vance’s argument scemed to stess considerablc force. I tried ard to fit it into a hasty recon- struction of the crime, but was ut- terly unable to do so. “Anything else that don’t seem to fit into the picture?” Heath at length asked. A Vance pointed with his cigaret toward the clothes-closet in the liv- ing-room. This closet was alongside of the foyer, in the corner near the Boule cabinet, directly opposite to the end of the davenport. “You might let your mind dally a moment with the condition of that clothes-press,” suggested Vance, carelessly. “You will note that, though the door’s ajar, the contents have not been touched. And it’s about the only area in the apart- ment that hasn’t been disturbed.” Heath walked over and looked in- to the closet. “Well, anyway. I'll admit that’s queer,” he finally conceded. Vance had followed him indolent- ly, and stood gazing over his shoul- ler, “And my word!” he exclaimed suddenly, “The key’s on the in- side of the lock. Fancy that, now! One can’t lock a closet door with the key on the inside—can one, sergeant?” “The key may not mean any- thing,” Heath observed hopefully. “Maybe the door was never locked. Anyhow, we'll find out about that pretty soon. I’m holding the maid outside, and I’m going to have her on the carpet as soon as the cap- tain finishes his job here.” He turned to Dubois, who, hav- ing completed his search for finger- prints in the bedroom, was now in- specting the piano. “Any luck yet?” The captain shook his head. “Gloves,” he answered succinctly. “Same here,” sunnlemented Bel- lamy grufflv, on his knees before the escritoire. Vance, with a sardonic smile, turned and walked to the window, where he stood looking out and smoking placidly, as if his entire interest in the case had evaporated. At this moment the door from the main hall opened, and a shért, thin lie man, ign Arne hair ane a scraggly gray beard, stepped in- side and stood blinking against the vivid sunlight. “Good morning, Professor.” Heath greeted the newcomer. “Glad to NY SAYS: jimmy,” | like = a, I've something nifty, 6:30 to 7:30 Bait Veen. sien vaer ee [ KFYR Radio ||bovis” Hare) aet’ Moron goes ife'Be Continued) | Programa 7:30 to ae ma Weether, ee errann neni.
