The Katser Wilhelm der Grosse, of the North German Lloyd Jine, sailed to-day, carrying in an armor-plate compart- ment $7,000,000 in fold, drawn yesterday fromthe As- say Office. This item fromthe even- ing papers was read last Tuesday by several mill- ion peox le. But the fate of the gold-laden liner after hertwin smokestacks sank in haze beyond the skyline off Sandy Hook will not be known until cable reports that the Katser has toi ohed at Ply- month to land the London consignment of the treas- ure. The following story is therefore purely imnagi- nary, though it is not so improbable a situation as many may be led at first Blunce to believe. 0 LAPTELS. rovse sally from Aman calling Moegeman: are following rmed the veasel. te shaved down and transterred to the the conspirators will blow the Kaleer Wilh F Grosse to pieces.

They are nervous enough as {t Is; and even such an im- pomsible hoax as yours might ‘scare them.” “It might," admitted Schoeffel, I Gon't mean that it shall.” "T thought not,” said the captain, a look of rellef crossing his handsome face, “and now, if you are quite finished, may I remind you that I must dress for din- nerT’ “But I haven't quite finished,” object- e4 Schoeffel, gently, in the tone where- with one might correct a fretful child, “and I beg you will be natural and drop that very bad attempt to seem indiffer- ent. For, really, you are very much scared, you know. In fact you are plan- ning to get me to rise and put aw y this flask, so that you can overpov r me and have me put in irons. Am I rit right?" ava flush red‘ened Hoegemann's bronzed cheek. "J thought so, Well, as the flash seems to annoy you I wil put It away," He allpped the bottle carelessly into the elde pocket of his reefer and leaned forward over the table, his slender hands olasped in front of him, The next instant Capt, Hoegemann, revolver levelled, was standing over him. * ‘Move @ muscle and I'll blow. your brains out!" thundered the captain. Schoeffel laughed happily up into the furlous face. “I expected some auch merry burst of melodrama,” he aald. “Do you suppose for one instant that [ was mot prepared for {t?
