The Eleven of Diamonds
j By BAYNARD A KENDRICK
. CHAPTER XV
Stan settled himself . into the
swivel chair at Keefe's desk. Eve
.seated herself at the right. 1 Tolli-
ver took a deep leather chair and
sprawled out his legs,; regarding
Stan with .-open; animosity. Stan
studied the handsome arrogant boy
(for a moment and made a decision.
(Young Farraday liked excitement,
"but he was no killer. As for Eve
lie turned to the girl; his blue eyes
twinkling reassuringly into her
Wide brown ones.
"You're in the hands of the law,
all right," he said with his disarm
ing grin. "But I'm working for your
father, Bruce Farraday." .
j Eve made a quick gesture of hand
to breast "Why?"
"Because I've inadvertently built
tip a false reputation of being a de-tec-ka-tive
when actually I like to
eat and fish.' You haven't seen your
father since you returned from Fort
Myers, have you?" :
"No." Eve was nervously toying
with a small gold clasp-pin which
held her white cloak together across
her breast. It represented a slender,
graceful, animal with two long
hems curving in toward each other
at the tops. Stan leaned back and
closed his eyes. Somewhere, many
years before, he had seen a similar
pin. . "We were tired from the
drive," the girl was saying, ."and
there was a light in Commander
Dawson's apartment when we
passed. We stopped in for a high
ball and finished up here." ,
"Did you know a man named Ed
ward Fowler?" Stan opened his
eyes. His mind was still occupied
with that gold pin. " '
i Tolliver sat up in the chair.
"TJad'a crazy. There's nothing the
natter with Ed Fowler " - -
"He's dead. Murdered, Tolliver,
said the police found your torn up
check in. his room at the Amboy
Hotel" -:v v
i "Oh, no!" The words were wrung
in an anguished cry from Eve. "It's
impossible why just last night "
t "He was stabbed last night at
the Sunset. That's why your father
has brought me into this." Stan
rpoke gently, astounded at the effect
f his words on Eve Farraday. She
had almost collapsed at the news of
Fowler's death. Certainly the death
t a casual friend could never re
. dace a well poised debutante to such
- sumbness and despair. ..
f Tolliver had left his chair and
was pacing back and forth in front
of the desk three steps and turn
three steps and turn.
i "I never heard such foolishness,"
lie said wildly without pausing in
bis stride. "That check was a joke
I just a joke and now this
comes n ; :"J
- "Why don't you let me la on the
joke?" Stan interrupted. :;
"It's simple enough. Eve can tell
you it's simple enough. Fowler and
I always played for high stakes
but we settled at a fraction of our
losses a tenth of a cent on the dol
lar. We got to shooting crap in the
Commander's apartment one night.
Fowler had a run of luck and ap
parently won that amount from me.
I wrote him the check to make it
look real to make the others think
1 was a big shot. That's the truth,
isn't it Eve? Tell him that's the
truth." He stopped his pacing and
looked appealingly at his sister.
Eve stood up slowly, and faced
him defiantly. "No," she said firm
ly, "that isn't the truth. Even you
don't know the truth, Tolly. But I'm
going to tell it now. I can't protect
yeu from your own foolishness any
longer;" She pointed to the chair
Tolliver had quitted. "Sit down
there. I'm going on the deck with

ments will be made to the various

Wool in Uosfoti
BOSTOX. Oct. 7. (AP) (USDA)
Fine western brown wools were quite ac
tive and prices were strong on the Boston
wool market today. It1 was becoming very
difficult to ; buy good French combing
longtbs fine territory wools in original
bags at 65 cents, scoured basis. Such
wools were bringing 66 to 67 cents,
scoured basis, quite j readily and aome
houses were asking 1 68 to 70 cents,
scoured basis. Twelve-month Texas wools
were bringing 67 cents, scoured basis,
end holders in Bortnn were asking around
70 cents, scoured basis. '
Tolliver obeyed her with the do
cility of a frightened child. She
turned and went outside with Stan
following. In the darkness of the
small railed enclosure, .she took
Stan's arm and drew. him to the side
overlooking the water. ' ; i
"Edward Fowler tore up . that
check because I asked him to," she
said without preamble. "He loved
me. I asked him under condition
Tolliver would (never gamble
again " t y.
"Did you love him?" S
She hesitated. "I don'rchink so
probably because I knew so little
about him. I might have learned to
love him, though. He was a wonder
ful man " . , I .
"He gave' you the clasp you're
wearing?" I
A heavy brass belaying-pin hur
tled through the darkness, thrown
with Murderous accuracy. It grazed
against Stan's head. Without a
sound he turned a, somersault over
the low railing,; and dropped gro
tesquely two stories down into the
black waters of Biscayne Bay. Eve
Farraday watched the white clothed
body- disappear below the surface
before she slipped . unconscious to
the deck - i .
Millie LaFrarice lay rigid in the
bed, listening to the brush of a palm
against the screen of the porch.
Since eight o'clock in the evening a
man had been strolling back and
forth across the j street. Twenty
times she had gone on the porch to
look. The man was always there.
At midnight another man had taken
his place. . . I
She covered her eyes with a
shapely arm to shut out the light
of a street bulb on the corner. The
moving palm cast shadows on the
bedroom wall, driving her close to
hysterics with their faltering undu
lations. ' Millie was not timorous.
She had lived too long close to vio
lence and sudden ; death. ; But she
knew that Zorrio and Eckhardt were
both supreme egoists, claiming any
woman for life. Miles Standish Rice
had not underestimated her danger
wfth Caprilli in Miami. ;
Stealthily she turned in bed and
thrust one white hand tinder her
pillow1. The squeak of a loose board
under pressure had warned her
someone was in, the sitting room.
Her groping fingers closed around
the butt of her pearl-handled auto
matic and began to slide it out an
inch at a time. I . "
"Hold it, Millie! It's Benl" The
beam of a pencil flash, directed into
the palm of one hand, briefly illumi
nated his face in the doorway. '
"You damned idiot I might have
shot you." She still held onto the
gUrt. ' - -.Jfc.1 :...-:-"
He came closer and sat on the
foot of the bed. "The house is being
watched. I'm parked three blocks
north. I came between the houses
and in the back way." -
"To tell me that?"
"I'm onto something big, Millie. It
will fix us for life." , ' ;
"You're always on to something
big. IH tell you something bigger.
The coppers are on to you. They
may fix you for life. One of them
paid me a call this afternoon a
private dick called Rice. He's smart,
Ben. You better watch him." ;
He was too smart He got him
self rubbed out on the Four Leaf
Clover tonight Somebody tossed a
crowbar; at him and tumbled him
over the rail. When they fished him
out the chimes were ringing."

Millie raised herself on one elbow
to try and see his face in the dim
light of the room. "Easy Street is
a One way street Are you sure
you're driving the right way? If
you're not I'm getting out, Ben Eck
hardt There's a chair at the wrong
end. You can sit in it alone and fry."
"Why you I'll" He made
a move toward her.
"Keep on your end of the bed,
Ben. You're a small time gambler
and you're bucking an electric
wheel. You better tell me the story.
If your nose is clean I may help.
If it's not " Her perfect shoulders
lifted slightly.
He leaned back against the foot
of the bed, nonplussed at Millie's
tone. He could deal with her when
she raved, cursed, and cried, but her
assured calmness alarmed him.
"You'll never walk but on me," he
told her, sullenly.
"Zorrio still ' thinks that about
himself." . " . j -. ;.
, "Well you can't sneeze me into .
Alcatraz like you did him." i
"I'd kill you for that right now,.
Ben except I know you said it to
make me mad.. Think this over be-,
fore you' get big-mouthed again; .
Caprilli's in Miami. Late this after
noon I wrote a letter to friend.
It's to be mailed on to Caprilli if
anything happens to me. If it's ever
delivered a pardon from the Gover
nor won't save you. Now about you ;
and me. I'm tired of your strange j
ideas about beating tar out of a
dame to show her you love her and
the day I want to walk out 111
walk. If you try to stop me 111 get
word to Caprilli that you've been
pestering me. Now you better tell
roe why the coppers are on your '
trail for killing Fowler."
The pastiness of his face showed
startlingly against the moving',
shadows on the wall. "Honest, Mil
lie! You've gone nuts! I never'
knocked off a guy In my life but
I'm not going to drop a wad of
dough because I happen to know!
who did. I saw that dick get his!
tonight" ; I
"Who did it?" I ; i
"The same guy who gave it to i
Fowler last night" j i j
"You're lying, Ben." - i ; i
"I swear to you, Millie. We've got 1
a fortune in our mitts if you keep i
your headl" He was intent, plead
ing. "But it's better if you don't
know the whole works. They may
sweat the devil out of you at head-;
quarters tomorrow when this Rice
thing breaks' loose. You can't tell
something you don't know" - i .
"Neither can you." " " 1 :
"Where do you think this Came
from?" The pencil flash glowed on
a piece of folded paper thrust before-her
eyes. She read it without
relinquishing her bold on the auto
matic ' : . r -. 1 j -,. j ..

"Dave Button!" Millie inhaled
toftly. "I don't believe it" j;
"You're acting dumb, Millie. Do
you think Button would stick his
own initials on a note like that?" " ' '
"Why not? Fowler wouldn't have
gone in the poker room unless he
knew who the note was from."
"The man who wrote that note
killed Fowler "
"Yeah? And where did you get it
from a little boy on the corner?"
."I'm trying to tell you. That note
was in Fowler's pocket " .

That 'Figure
CHICAGO.. Oct. ; 7 -(cP)- Wheaj
ran up briskly 'i1 cents, a bashr
el late -today, iahd-' held most of
the gain. -
Helping the bulge was word
that the agricultural adjustment
administration is ' already " about
one third through with the plac
ing in foreign markets 100,000,
000 bushels of this country's
wheat surplus. It was announced
also that the United States flour
export subsidy rate other than
from the Pacific coast has been
increased 10 cents.
Relief Purchases Help
Notice of proposed purchases
of corn for government relief dis
tribution, had some stimulating
effect on the corn market.
At the close, Chicago wheat
futures were 1 cent to 1 U high
er compared with yesterday's fin
ish. Dec. 64-65, May 65-,
corn ' 4 to 1 cent up, Dec. 46
46, May 49-i4. Oats i-A
advanced, rye showing gain,
and provisions varying from 12
cents setback to 5 cents advance.
Adding to late upward momen
tum of wheat values statements
by R. O. Cromwell, a leading
crop authority, that rainfall In
the Pacific northwest has been
much below normal for weeks.
Eastern Washington rainfall, he
said, was only 35.2 of average
with heat and evaporation excessive.
