Conhery gathered up the clothing, "the glasses, the watch and purse, and Slald them on the seat across the aisle.

He counted over the gold and banknotes In the purse and entered the amount upon his list. "Xou know about what he had with him?" he asked. !' "Very closely. That is correct. .MnfMny js missing," Avery answered. The conductor opened the watch. i"The crystal is missing." ' Avery nodded. "Yes; It always Stbat is, it was missing yesterday." Connery looked up at him, as ( though slightly puzzled by the manner . of the reply; then, having finished his llst, he rejoined the surgeon. . Sinclair was still bending over the 0 naked torso. It had been a strong, healthy body; Sinclair guessed Its age at fifty. As a, boy, the man might p have been an athlete a college track j. runner or oarsman and he had kept ' himself In condition through middle age. There was no mark or bruise iupon the body, except that on the '' right aide and Just below the ribs 1 there now showed a scar about an Inch and a half long and of peculiar crescent shape. It was evidently a surgical gear and had completely healed. r,, Sinclair scrutinized this carefully it 01 and then looked up to Avery. "lie was operated on recently?" "About two years ago." Tor wfiatT It was some operation on the gall bladder." "Performed by Kuno Garrt?" Avery hesitated. "I believe so." He watched Sinclair more closely aa he continued his examination. Con nery touched the surgeon on. the arm. "What must be done. Doctor? And where and when do you want to do II r Sinclair, however, It appeared, had not yet finished his examination. ll U "WU1 you pull down the window cur- tains?" he directed. 1 ', As Connery, reaching across the body, complied, the surgeon took a WWTS e 8" ' "H W" Perated 0n Recently'' )id f matchbox from his pocket, and glanc ing about at the three others as though to select from thorn tin; one iletfone most likely to he nn eflMcnt aid, .J jj he handed It to Eatnn. "Will you help me, please?

UfcJ and the surgeon dropped the eyelid ( - ( and exposed the other pupil. (Is "What's that for?"

Livingstone 5 company or upon the completely powerless and poor; the unconscious man in the berth could belong only to the first class of (Jam's clientele. The sur geon's gaze again searched the fea tures in the berth; then It shifted to the men gathered about him lu the aisle. "Who did you say this was?" he de manded of Avery. "I said his name was Nathan Dome," Avery evaded. "No, no!" Sinciuir Jerked out im patiently. "Isn't this " Ho hesi tated, and finished lu n voice suddenly lowered: "Isn't this Basil Santolne?" Avery, If he sllll wished to do so, found It Impossible to deny. ''Basil Santolne!" Connery breathed. To the conductor alone, among the four men standing by the berth, the mime seemed to have come with the shnrp shock of a surprise; with It had come an added sense of responsibility and horror over what had happened to tlie passenger who had been con fided to his care, which made him whiten as he once more repeated the name to himself and stured down at the man in the berth. Conductor Connery knew Busy San tolne only In the way that Santolne was known to great numbers of other people that is, by name but not by sight. Basil Santolne at twenty-two had been graduated from Harvard, though blind. His connections the family was of well-to-do southern stock his possession of enough money for his own support, mado It possible for him to live Idly If he wished ; hut Santolne had not chosen to make his blindness an excuse for doing this. He bad at once settled himself to his chosen profession, which was law. He had not found it easy to get a start In this, and he had succeeded only after great effort In getting a place with a small and unimportant firm. Within a short time, well within two years, men had begun to recognize that In this struggling law firm there was a powerful, clear, compelling mind. Santolne, a youth living in darkness, unable to see the men with whom he talked or the documents and books which must be read to him, was be ginning to put the stamp of his per sonality on the firm's affairs. A year later his name appeared with others of the firm; at twenty-eight his was the leading name. He had begun to specialize long before that time. In corporation law; he married shortly after this. At thirty the firm name represented to those who knew Its particulars only one personality, the personality of Santolne; and at thirty five though his Indifference to money was proverbial he was many times a millionaire. But except among the small and powerful group of men who hnd learned to consult him, Santolne himself at that time was utterly un known. Consulted continually by men con cerned In great projects, Immersed day and night In vast affairs, capable of living completely as he wished he had been, at the age of forty-six, great but not famous, powerful but not pub licly known. At that time an event had occurred which had forced the blind man out unwillingly from his obscurity. This event had been the murder of the great western financier, Matthew I.atron. There had been nothing in this affair which had In any way shadowed dishonor upon Santolne. So much ns In his role of a mind without personality Santolne ever fought, he had fought ogalnst I.otron; but his light had been not against the man but against methods. There hnd come then n time of uncertainty and un rest ; public consciousness was , In the process of awakening to the knowledge that strange things, ap proaching close to the likeness rtf what men call crime,. had been being, done under the unacssmlRg name of business. Scandal financial scnndrl breathed more strongly against I.a tron than perhaps against any of the other western men. He had been among their biggest; he had his ene mies, of whom Impersonally Santolne might have been counted one, and1 he had his friends, both In high places; he was a world figure. Then, all of a sudden, the man had been struck down killed, because of some private quarrel, men whispered, by an obnrure and till then unheard-of man. The trembling wires and cables, which should hove carried to the wait ing world the expected news of I.a tron's conviction, carried Instead the news of Latron's death; and disorder followed. The first public concern had been, of course, for the stocks nnd bonds of the great I.ntron properties; and I.ntron'a bigness had rcemed only further, evidenced by the stanrhness with which the Lotron bonks, the La Iron railroads and mines and public utilities stood firm even against the shock of their builder's death. As sured of this, public Interest bad shift ed to the trial, conviction and sen tence of Latron's murderer; and It was during this trlnl that Samtotne'f nirtne had become more p1ihllrl known, Knt that the bllsdi'mon. aim suspected of any "knowltflRovmuVb Ljcts of i?y aompIIfy-Jn. the n'rljne; ttie.oJnrdi lad hfen ttecaQje 'of t pureljr'wf irate nSm'ter. but lit iho.es ger questlonlt dnto La'tron's clrcuin ... . stances and surroundings previous to the crime, Santolne was summoned Into court as a witness. The blind man, led Into the court, sitting sightless In the witness chair, revealing himself by his spoken, and even more by his withheld, replies as one of the unknown gulders of the destiny of the Continent and as coun selor to the most jxiwerful himself till then hardly heard of but plainly one of the nation's "uncrowned rulers" had caught the public sense. The fate of the murderer, the crime, even Latron himself, lost emponirlly their Interest In the public curiosity over the personality of Santolne. It had been reported for some days that Santolne had come to Seattle di rectly after Warden's death ; but when this was admitted, his associ ates had alwuys been careful to add that Santolne, having been a close personal friend of tialiriel Warden, had come purely In a personal capac ity, and the Impression was given that Santolne had returned quietly soinn days before. The mere prolonging of his stay in the West was more than suggestive that affairs among thn powerful were truly In such state as Warden had proclaimed; this attack upon Santolne, so similar to that which had slain Warden, and deliv ered witldn eleven days of Warden's death, must be of the gravest signifi cance. Connery stood overwhelmed for the moment with this fuller recognition of the seriousness of the disaster which hud come upon this man In trusted to his charge; then he turned to the' surgeon. "Can you do anything for him here, Doctor?" he asked. The surgeon glanced down the car. "That stateroom is It occupied?" "It's occupied by his daughter." "We'll take him in there, then." Tlie four men lifted the inert figure of Basil Suntoine, carried it into the drawing room and laid it on Its back upon the bed. "I have my Instruments," Sinclair snld. "I'll get them; but before I de cide to do anything, I ought to see his daughter. Since she Is here, Iter consent Is necessary before any opera tion on him." "Miss Santolne Is In tlie observation enr," Avery said. "I'll get her." The tone was In some way false Eaton could not tell exactly how. Avery started down the aisle. "One moment, please, Mr, Avery!" said the conductor. "I'll ask you not to tell Miss Santolne before any other passenger that there has been an attack upon her father. Walt un til you get her Inside the door of this car." "You yourself said nothing, then, that can hnve made her suspect It?" Eaton asked. Connery shook his head ; tho con ductor, In doubt nnd anxiety over ex actly what action the situation called for unable, too, to communicate any hint of It to his superiors to the west because of the wires being down clearly had resolved to keep tho at tack upon Santolne secret for some time. "I said nothing definite even to the trainmen," he replied; "nnd I want you gentlemen to promise me before you leave this car that you will say nothing until I give you leave." His eyes shifted from the face of one to another, until he bad nssnrcd himself that nil agreed. As Avery left the car, Eaton found n sent In one of the end sections near the draw ing room. He did not know whether to ask to leave the ear, or whether he ought to remnln; and he would have gone except for recollection of Har riet Santolne. Then the curtain' at the end of tlie enr was pushed further aside, nnd sho came In. She was very pale, but quite con trolled, as Eaton knew sho would be. mm "Can You Do Anything for Him Here, Doctor?" Ho Asked. She looked nt Eaton, but did not speak os she passed ; she went di rectly to tho door of the drawing room, opened It and went In, followed by Avery. The door closed, nnd for a moment Knton could hear voices In side the room Harriet Santolne's, Sinclair's. Country's. The conductor then came to (he dour of tlie drawing room and sent the porter for water and clean linen; Eaton heard the rip of linen being torn, and the car be come filled with the smell of anti septics. Donald Avery came out of the draw ing room and dropped Into thj seat across from Eaton. He seemed dee; ly thoughtful so deeply, Indeed, as to be almost unaware of Enton's pres ence. And Eaton, observing him.' sguln hM the senve that Avery's ab sorption .was oAniilofoely ,,ln conse. quenccs to himself of whstwas go(jyt rH behind the "cior-;l Intw Hnsll Santolne's iVrth o rnsttmied lst- urg wirid ffef lhiafortaWKnf f ))i (Id.

Fi nally the door opened, and Harriet Santolne came out, paler than before, and now not quite so steady. Eaton rose as she approached (hem; and Avery leaped up, nil con cern end sympnihj for her Immedi ately she appeared, ne met her In the aisle and took her hand. "Was It successful, dear?" Avery asked. Sho shut her eyes heforo sho an swered, nnd stood holding to the back of a scat ; then she opened her eyes, saw Dillon and recognized lilm and sat down In the scat where Avery had been sitting, "Doctor Sinclair says we will know In four or live days," she replied to Avery Eaton. she turned then directly to "He thought there probably was a clot under tlie skull, and be operated to find It and relieve it. There was one, anil we have done nil iva iiitiv miK- ,-,!, it..,, tor Sinclair has appointed himself nurse; he says 1 can help him, but not Just yet. I thought you would like to know." "Thank you ; I did want to know," Eaton acknowledged, lie moved away from them, and sat down lu one of the seats further down the car. Soon lie left for his own cur, and ns tlie door was closing behind him, a sound came to his ears from tho car he Just had left a young girl sud denly crying In nhiimlou. Harriet Santolne, he understood, must have broken down for the moment, after the strain of tlie operation ; and Ea ton halted as though to turn buck, feeling the blood drive suddenly upon his heart. Then, recollecting that lie had no right to go to her, he went on. CHAPTER VII Suspicion Fastens on Eaton. iJaton found hl car better filled than it hnd been before, for the people shifted from the car behind had been scattered through the train. Keeping himself to his section, he watched the car nnd outside the windows for' signs of what Investigation Connery and Avery were making. Whoever had attacked Santolne must slill be upon tlie train, for no one coultl huve escaped through the snow. No one could now esenpe.

Eaton halted. The conductor con fronted him. "Your name, sir?" Connery asked. "Philip D. Eaton." Connery wrote down the answer. "Your address?" "I have no address. I was going to n hotel In Chicago which one I hndn't decided yet." "Where are you coming from?" "From Asia." "That's hardly an address, Mr. Ea ton !" "I can give you no address abroad. I bad no fixed ndtlrcss there. I was traveling most of the time. I arrived "Your Name, Sir?" Connery Aeked. In Seattle by tlo Aslntlc steamer ond' took thlH train." "Ah! you cntne on the Tambn Muni." Connery mnn note of this, as bo lm mfi'Io note of all tho otJier ques tions nnd answer. Then he snld somejhJnic to the Pullman conductor, who replied In the Snme low tone; what they said was not audi hie to Katon. "You con tell us nt least where your family Is, Mr. Eaton." Connery BUffffested. ; "I have no family. "Friends, then?" "I I hnve no friends. "Nowhere?" "Nowhere. Connery pondered for several mo ments.

Eaton told himself that there should be no danger to himself from tills In quiry, directed against no one, but including comprehensively everyone on the train. When tho conductors had left the car, he put his magazine away and went Into the men's com partment to smoke and calm his nerves. Ills return to Amcricii had passed tlie hounds of recklessness; und what a sit nation lie would now be lu if his actions brought even serious suspicions against him!

Eaton finished his cigar and went back to his seat In tlie car. As he glanced nt the seat where he had left his linked traveling bug, he saw that the bag was no longer there. It stood now between the two seats on the floor, and picking It up und looking at it, he found It un.'ns tened and with marks about the lock which told plainly that It hud been forced.
