WHO'S WHO AND WHAT'S HAPPENED CAPTAIN HKNNINO, United intelligence ofNcer, briiiMH news tu Washington of a proposed invasion of the I'nited States by Van llas sek, military dictator of Mexico. Hciming was known In Mexico as Hronililz, who uus held abroad and wlKmn passport Hcntiing used. In Mexico he had met the Austrtun, Kincko, and ,H.ullun Colonel liog glo of the air force. Army and navy departments are u beehive of activity, with (J KNi: HAL IIACI'K, chief of ttatf of the army and COLONKL KLAGWim chief of military inttilliKeuce. Heports of air raids come from New Orleans and (ialveston. CHAPTKR IX Incendiary homos rained down. brliiKlitK an Irresistible beat that ate its way Into- all combustible parts of barrucks. General Urill turned back into bis headquarters, sat down at his desk stricken by his utter helplessness, but main taining bis seU'COiitiol. Ills staff, their bloodless faces drawn and lined, worked cooly, outwardly oblivious to the danger. Information kept x-onihiK In, re ports that had to be uppralsed un til the whole picture of attack and disaster had ,hcen assembled and appraised as tho basis for what over action was to he -a ken. The wooden hangars at Kelly field were In flames. Randolph Held was being hammered. San Antonio was In a mad panic which had got out of all police control. People were flooding the streets, rushing about In a mad frenzy In their efforts to escape the city, (toads were choked with passenger vehicles. A heavy bomb struck Kan Fer nando cathedral near the city hall. Another fell on West Woodlawn avenue and killed n score of peo ple. A bomb had dropped in Hruck- enridgo park nnd killed an estimat ed thirty people who had taken re fuge thore. But the Van Jlassek bombers were confining their mujo' fury to Fort Sam Houston and the flying fields, which told General Itilll that the attack presaged a crossing of the Mo Grande by mobile troops during the night or at daybreak. From ?ew Orleans and Galves ton came reports of raids that were in progress. Hundreds were kilted In the streets. No other details. Shortly after midnight the vio lence suddenly ceased, the bombers and their accompanying attack ships hailed off to the south. Col onel leun called In again from Lar edo. The head or a motorized col umn had halted at Nuevo Iurcdo Just south of the Itlo Grande. Ills intelligence patrols had (verified this with their own eyes. I "All right, gentlemen," 'llrfU fob J nis Hiatt. tiet the second divi sion together as quickly as pos sible and start them moving south toward the Nueces river! Tell Gen eral Mole of the second I'll meet him at Kirk In three hours with his orders for the defense of San Antonio. Get General Hague on the long-distance again while I re port. We're going to do our best In a desperate situation, and 1 needn't tell you what we're up against! I'll be ready for your re commendations In an hour, gentle men." In the war department at Wash ington the evening had passed on In feverish sttilT preparation for fu ture -trouble, but vfth small belief that the first thunderbolt of Van Ilassek's attack would fall before midnight. Kveu FhtgMil, gifted chief of military intelligence, bad muffed the ball, interpreting the evening rumors from Fort Sam llopsttm as symptoms of a slowly brewing mischief tluit intent not fester Into violence for days or weeks. (Mi getting clear of the staff ses sions In General Hague's ortiee shortly after eight o'clock, Flagwlll put his shoulder to the wheel of what now had become a major re sponsibility of his own section. He assembled his sub-chiefs and an nounced his decision. "Gentlemen, the president has authorl.ed a spy roundup with the iiloves off. I needn't tell you that in past months we haven't even scratched the surface. M btt't enough, now, to get secret-smitcO-ers. We've got to .get at their sys tem 'of sabotage and propaganda. In fact we've got to uproot the wTiole spy system In the I'nited States or heaven help our indus trial mobilization If we're in tor i real war! You know your leads, now get into action. With gloves off, and nobody to be spared who looks to us like a foreign agent. Any questions?" !u grave silence the small group of officers ruse. They )i,new tymt not even an order of battlo had greater significance nor more vi tal Importance. A secret army of termites, entrenched by years of organized stejilth In arsenals and factories, was more dangerous than a dozen attacking divisions. liy means of an organization .that reached Into every agency of Inves tigation and Ihw enforcement throughout the United States, our G-2 would launch attack on or ganized espionage v.i once. "Very well, gentlemen, that's all," Flag will said when he read from their faces that his section chiefs had no question to ask. He added, swinging his level eyes to Helming, "you will wait, Captain, for special Instructions." Beuning stood In front of the llagwill desk until the swinging doors closed behind the others. Tho colonel spoke at once. In your report on vun Hassek s heudquarters at Mexico City. Hen 11 ing, you mentioned that Colonel Ilravot left on some mysterious mission, ostensibly to Furope. I think you said your Austrian friend also disappeared the last day -you were in Mexico. ' "Yes, sir," Kenning affirmed. "You'd better have a look-see muong the hot spots in Washing ton. It's entirely possible you'll see someone you know. A break of that kind might lead us any where." llenniug took a taxleab to the Army and Navy club where he ef fected some slight chunges of appearance. At the Mayflower ,he purchased newspapers and scanned them while surveying Ihe evening's vis itors in the cocktail lounge. The American ultimatum, si ill unanswered, was featured by all the papers, hut there was little ten sion or alarm evidenced in press reports and editorials. From the Mayflower. Penning went to the Willard, thence through several cafes on Connecti cut avenue and finally took a cab out to the Shoruham. At the Shoreham his Kiv.e was making a first round of the tables skirting the dance floor when It centered with a start upon a fa miliar face. The man, dressed. n dinner clothes, aat alone, his oyes gleaming with some Inner excite ment as he puffed at. a cigar. Den ning moved up for a closer view and found prompt ceriflcation. Un doubtedly here was the Austrian captain, Flucke, of the ,Vun Hassek staff. Penning walked casually up' tq (he Finckn table and sat down lie side the Van Hassek spy. ' "Hello, Flucke," he said. Fiucke started, his right hand jerked toward his pocket, then he relaxed wllh a nervous laugh as he recognized his unexpected visitor from the Palaclo N'aclonal. "My, Mromlltz, but you startled me!" ho gasped. "I didn't know you were within a thousand miles of Washington." Penning said In a matter-of-fact way: "I'lew up yesterday, Fiucke. Hoped I might be lucky enough to run into you tonight. How are things here?" Fiucke leaned across the t able and lowered his voice. His eyes gleamed with excitement. "A if 1 Colonel Itravot send you to work with us tonight?" he whis pered. Penning pretended annoyance and warned, "Not quite so free with names, Flucke." He added with a bantering smile.

Are you in on thut one, ilromlitz?" "I'm not saying anything," Ben nine answered, with a quizzical smile thut suggested full under stundiiiB uf the Austrian's cryptic words. ' Uenultig'a eyes hud, been, wan dpi Ins about the room and he thought, there was something va guely familiar in the thin man with the shiny bald head who sat pome ilistance away. The man's' face was averted across from him sat a riashy young v.oinan and a squar ish younger man with a pugnacious face. As the orchestra struck up. (lie thin man got up to dance, af rnrillng Kenning a full view of his hcaklKh face. "You knew, of course," Hemline said casually to Flncke. "that the old hiiuk, Colonel Jioggln, Is here in Washington?" Flncke shook a waggish finger and accused, "I thought you wurn ed ine we musn't be so free In men tinning names." "Correct, but please note that 1 lowered my voice. Of course, if we're going- to be so technical as all that, I'lncke, perhaps we'd bet- ler luentiiy ourselves to each oth er officially. Go ahead." its the best cover-un I've ever' heard." Kincko replied with en thusiasm. "You can say anything you want so long us you mention just those two things. Tout's vast ly better than having a regular for mula for Identification which the enemy might pick up on ypu." "Fine enough, but let's hear you iilontify yourself. Flncke." "Once I knew a man named Pala clo Qualrcs who owned a fine pair of silver sabers," the Austrian con fided. Helming hurriedly searched i through Flncke's remark and" de cided that the key words, by which Van Hassek agents Identified them selves to one another must be "palaclo quatres" and "silver saiiors." He said: "How. do voir like this one, Flncke? There's an old shop known aa the Palaclo Quatres that lias for sale some Interesting anti ques in the form of silver sabers." 'Just as good as. mine, maybe butler," Flncke approved. Ilogglo had finished his dunce. Helming observed that the Italian 'its t-eiiing reauy in leave me Shoreham. Ho made a hurried es timate. Tho instant arrest of these two men would only .net the Hecret service two more spies w.ho would spill nothing. Only by boldlng I hem under close observation could th? ramifications of their mischief in Washington be traced down, lie decided that Hoggio was bigger game and not to his feet. "Whore'II I find you later, Flncke?" he demanded. Flncke stared at his watch and its dial seemed to bring u nerv ous quiver to his fingers. Ills eyes lighted up again in that strange excitement of his. "I'll be about for only a weok or so, Ilionilllz." he answered. "If this place, closes, we can find each other at meal-times at one of ihe good places on Connecticut ave nue. Hut after tonight we must lie very careful." Ilogglo hud got but of tho dining-room and W'us passing into the street with his two companions by the time Helming reached the lob by.
