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. "I thought
the colonel promised that you were
to go back to your artillery when

ish younger man with a pugnacious

(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

thusiasm. "You can say anything

just those two things. Tout's vast

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

decided that Hoggio was bigger

"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

other at meal-times at one of ihe

He directed his cabman to follow
