"Well see about that," answered M. 3SaaI grimly. "M. Coquenll. you will probably nev er see me again, but you will hear frea me. Now blow your whistle." CeqBeuti was puzzled. If this was a Jtaif ft was tho maddest, most Incom yarehonstble bluff that a criminal ever Jnade. The detective paused to think. !Ebey had come down tbo Champs Ely ces and were nearlng the Itond point, tfee best guarded part of Paris, where ttt shrill summons of his police call weald be answered almost Instantly. There Is no hurry, I suppose," said "fee detective. "I'd like to ask a ques tion or two." Coquenll was studying his adversa ry. That beard? Could it bo false? Jld the hands, the arms? lie bad uratched these from the first, noting very movement particularly the left feand and the left arm, but bo bad de tected nothing significant "1 wonder If you havo anything against me personally?" Inquired M. "Oa tbo contrary," declared tho oth er, "we admlro yoa and wish you well." "Bat you threaten my dog?" lf necessary, yes." "And my mother?" "If aeceesary." The decisive moment bad come, for Jwt tben there shot around the corner trota the Avenue Montaigne a largo zed automobile, which crossed tbo Champs Klysecs slowly, turning into Afee Avenuo Gabrielle, and stopped nn Aer the chestnut trees. Like a Hash it ame Into the detective's mind that the same automobile had passed them oce beforo aomo streets back. On the frest Beat wero two men, strong look Jag fellows, accomplices, no doubt I ask because" began M. Paul with his Indifferent drawl; then, swift V drawing his whistle, ho sounded a tfanger call. The stranger sprang away, but Coquenll was oa him In a Iteaud. The bearded man, with a great heave of bis shoulders, broke tbo de tective's grip, then suddenly be attack ed, smiting for tbo neck with tho open sand held sideways in tho treacherous leaving blow that tho Japanese uso, Oeqaenll ducked forward, "jap struck Xth Ms right," thought M. Paul. At the same moment he fek ale adi yepary'a hand close on his throat and lor m knew the, deadly jltsu a few seconds more and then a crash lng, shattering pain drove through Co qucntl's lower heart region, and he sank weakly to the ground. Ills en emy had done an extraordinary thing had delivered a blow not provided for In jltsu tactics. In spite of the torsion torture be had swung his free arm uu der the detective's lifted guard, not in Yokohama style, but In the best man ner ot the old English prize ring, his .clinched fist falling full on the un guarded solar plexus nerves. And Co quenll dropped with this thought: "It was the left that spoke then." As he sank to the ground M. Paul tried to save himself, and. seising. til opponent by the leg. he lieid him des perately, but the spasms of pain over came him. and he felt the clutched le; slipping from his grasp. Then as con sciousness fndcJ he rallied In a last fierce effort, and he bit the man deeply under the knee. When Coqucnll came to himself he was lying on the ground nnd sevcra' policemen were bending over him. lie lifted his head weakly and looked about him. The stranger was gone: the automobile was gone. And sud-' denly it flashed through his mind thnt he had been outwitted from the first; that the man's purpose had not been nt all what It seemed to be; that a hand to hand conflict was precisely what the stranger had sought and planned for, because because In feverish haote Coquelln felt In his breast pocket for the" envelope with 'the precious leather fragments. It was not there. Then quickly he searched his other pockets. It was not there.
