NEW YORK, Beptember 30.—Eight Ppersons lost their lives in a fire which z:r)y today ‘swept through a five- ory apaftment house at 241 West 109th street, between Broadway and Amsterdam avenue. Nearly a score {more were injured, several seriously, | iand dozens of others were saved by firemen and volunteers who plunged through windows Into the flames which had shut off escape for the twenty-four families inside.

The dead: Wilbur Fenn, forty-five. and his son Wilbur, jr., sixteen; Wil- liam Hummell, sixteen; Albert Hum- mell, twelve; Harry Hoff, forty-five, and Irene and Flora Hoff, thought to be his daughters.

S 5 Dr. Bright and his associate expert from the Roosevelt Hospital pledged themselves definitely to the opinion that van Cortland’s death was the outcome of an irritant poison injected into the blood through two small punctures on the left side of the neck. They were quite un- able to classify the poison. shese X e “The post-morten may or may. not tell us,” said the expert. “Unfor- tunately we did not examine the subject until some seven or eight hours after death, when rigor mortis had set in, but there afe indications that a species of paralysis was induced.” Assuming that a state of almost com- plete coma had been created by a strong dose of choral hydrate before the poTSon was administered, the latter must have been exceedingly, indeed inconceivably, powerful if it brought about speedy death, as the actiomr of the heart and the arterial circulation would be much: retarded by the drug. In some respects both the appearance’ of the tiny wounds and the subsequent condition of the body reminded me of snakebite.” . “I thought of that” said Furneaux, “but dismissed it as_too far- fetched.

I'll see the coroner and make arrangements.” The doctors went out and the detectives followed, taking the key of the fatal room, ey =9 “By the way,” said Winter, aiter giving the butler certain m!}r‘uc- tions. particularly as to refusing all information to the press, and warning the other’sérvants to keep still tongues, though the presence of a police- man lent somie protection from prying visitors, “if that room was used as a dining room why is it known as the drawing room?” 1 “It is the largest room in the house, sir, so the dinigg room table‘ was’ taken there on club nights.” “How often did the club meet? “Once a month—every fourth Thursday. the last meeting.” < f “Because of the marriage?” . “Yes, sir.” : : 14 Probably Brown expected a question as to-the reason underlying the | club’s name, but the police knew the facts already. The Ace Club had attained a certain notoriety. Even the underworld of New York was jealous of a really notable idea! . “Charles, my lad, that doctor-man nearly surprised you into an admission by his snakebite suggestion,” said Winter when the two reached the street. “It's these queer coincidences.” grumbled the other. “Didn’t you give ‘serpe’ to Stuart as a password to the Milan Restaurant?” “Oh, blame me, of course, you rat!” But both men were destined tobe startléd by a much more remark- able coincidence before the day ended. - “By the way,” purred Furneaux, failing to accept-the proffered cue, “hadn’t we better hammer out a line as to that soldier?” “Shall we drop-him?” “I dunno. Let’s wait till after dinner.” . “He may become an active nuisance, and if he won't help with the girl he’s no good at all.”_ . “You never can tell. Great events hinge on the most trivial ones. I remember once seeing a brilliant red bird in the tree-lined main stteet of a Georgia townlet, and there was a moccasin snake curled up in.a nearby garden on the bank of the Savannah river. It may be that such sights affect the mentality of the inhabitants. Suppose the dour Scots in a gray Al;’zylesbire village habitually saw orange-colored parrots on the eaves, and Irish peasants found emerald<green vipers in their bogs, wouldn’t these things have changed the history of the world?” ' Winter, took off his straw hat; and fanned himself vigorously. “Gee!” he said, “those tints are too hot for a day like this.” But a long experience of the workings of Furneaux's mind, with its wild extravagances and fitful gleams of an almost phenomenal intui- tion, warned him that all this irresponsible chatter about snakes had stirred into activity some germ'of semmingly insane thought which would develop into a quite tangible and demonstrable theory. So they walked a whole block in silence. When Furneaux spoke again it was THRILLING MYSTERY STORY By LOUIS TRACY. Coprright, 1922. by Edward J. Clode.
