Was there any reason for that?” “Yes. I had sald nothing about that before Mrs. Colton. There had been some trouble between the young husband and wife in the first place.

To such a degree had the once wealthy Pennington ‘Tyler, broker, fallen, O'Connor was waiting impatiently for us downstairs, He quickly con- ducted us up to a modest room, Nota word was spoken until wo arrived at the door. Several men were gathered in the hallway, talking earnestly, qa@ they fell away silently as we ap- proached. Wo entered the room, which was rely furnished, but neat, On the bM@ lay an emaciated, gibbering figure which with an effort 1 could identify 48 that of Pennington Tyler, who had visited the morgue i wearch of tho body of his niece. He seemed to have fallen away overnight. “He's quieter now,” said the doctor, who was bending over him we en- tered. Then, in answer to Kennedy's inquiry, be added: “Some of the men in the hotel found him wandering In Washington Square early this morn- ing, @pperently on the point of ex- haustion from lack of sleep. They had to use everything short of force Craig Kennedy at His Best—Begin it To-Day to get him here, and it was with the Sreatest diffoulty that they could get him undressed and in bed, I wish some of you could have been here to Maten to his mutteringa. He seems to be wuffering from a most curious blending of hallucinations. There he Is at it again, only not quite so badly, Listen.” The figure on the bed was appar- ently living over again the days when he had been a broker. Ho was dis- ouseing various etocks incoherently, referring to them by their nicknames, For the most part, ee near as I could make out, they were stocks that had been traded in on the ourb in the days of the last boom before the public was educated to their worthlessness. Ho wae giving orders for faboulous amounts, and selling with equal rash- ness. Never a word did he say, even in Dis wanderings, about any person. Kennedy moved closer to catch what the old man was muttering. But with an almost uncanny intuition that he was being watched and Hat ened to, the half-conscious man reso- lutely closed his ips. In @ moment, bowev. he began again. This time the phantamgagoria Mitting before his disordered brain took @ new and startling turn, He had evidently traversed in ais mind in gilence the intervenf¥g period when he had been losing not only his own but Lotta Cameron's money, and had come down to the terrible reality of the present. “They shall ney: erted, half rising.

Craig shook his head with « decisive nod that conveyed not only a nega- tive, but @ broad hint discouraging conversation, Tyler had pressed both his hands to the back of hia head, as if it were splitting, A cold perspiration was standing out on bis face, “No!” he cried. “They shall never catch me!" catch me!" he Yo--never, never Cees fh HANDICAPPED & By Jackson Gregory The Story of a Tenderfoot Who Made Good Begins in The Evening World Oct. 30 6 nnlannnananannnananannnennmnnannnnnannannenannannannnnnnnanannns ‘iit be Would have been wagged ROOD PR ALAA RRR AL By Arthur B. Reeve | It waa perhaps half an hour later that we left the sick roo: “A ead case, Konnedy,” commented O'Connor as we paused to quis him in an angle of the lobby downstairs; “but not, I believe, as far as he te concerned, a criminal ease, That ts, I mean that my firat impression was wrong and yours was right, He had nothing to do with the death of Lotta Cameron, thoitgh both of them may be in the grip of somé superior orim!- nal.” “But what have you found?” asked Kennedy eagerty. “As nearly as I can discover from my man who trailed him yesterday, he came directly back here, But tn some way he must have given him the slip in the middle of the night, wandered off alone aomewhere and at last he got back to Washington Square, where be was picked up this moralng. You have seen the rest.’ Briefly the report that O'Connor had recelved on Pennington Tyler told of how his fortune, once tolera- bly largo, had gradually been die- sipated, not by fast living, but by reckless speculation, His wife had left him; he had quarreled with nearly all his family, and had become estranged from all his old-time friends. More than once Tyler had heard to say that he was being driven out of his mind, that his enemies were conducting @ malicious psychic attack on him, that some one who had once been a cloae friend had be- come one of his bitterest enemies. An adverse power asemed to opprens and drive him “The same death thought," broke in Kennedy as O'Connor reached this point In bis narrative "You," agreed that been unimaginative oMcer, “the same idea that was in the Cameron letter, I don't know What to make of such foolishness. One thing I do know, though, as I say: Tyler used to be a very wealthy man, and has lost everything of his own and @ good deal belonging to others, That was enough to unsettle bis mind." “Does tt account for unsettling Lotta Cameron's mind?" I asked hastily “She lost everything, too, didn't she?" answered O'Connor by asking another question, Kennedy was silent, venturing no opinion as yet. “Hig partner,” pursued the first deputy, “or, rather, his former parte ner, broke with him tn time, and ts still well Known as a@ successful Jealor; but there can be no doubt f! ; - . . .

O'Connor ex- cused himself for other police duties after making us promise to keep in touch with him. “Did you notice anything peoullar about Tyler’s hallucinations, ax the doctor called them?" asked Kennedy when we were walking dowo the atremt after O'Connor bad left us. “The fear?” I asked tentatively. “Exactly,” he pursued, ae if to bim- self. “The fear, the same fear that seome to pursue every one ocnnected with this uncanny case.
