I i Ten Years' Trial! I By den. CHARLES KINQ Cn, ilium, I from Virrt l'W, an oincer, nut ecii tue ituvcriier could nut muku lilm a sergeant. Tun lu gave lite awIiitiu'iit of sergeants and corftorul to tin- coinuiandlni; oKicer of the coriiiiaiiy aUme, ami wUllo Govern or X. would Dot vmiu tlie wishes o; so many citizens and voters by Kraut ' lng Langdon a commission neither would lie Interpose against tha wlsuc of scores nt others hf demanding, aa urged by The Sun and tha strikers. "the resignation of tha insolent oflicer who bad dared to thwart tha wishes of community." The Banner rejoiced and applauded. The Examiner was si lent. The Seattle might need that com lauy any moment, and every man with luob law lu view and every cltlxen pledged to law and order knew tuatant ly what It meant that the rifles had failed to fill tha vacancies. The lieu tenant commanding wouid figure aa head of the company, but Ita Instruc tion, ita discipline, the work of prepn - ration and finally ita command lu the event of a fight would all devolve upon It gritty first aergeant, Eric Langdon. Two evenings later Cresswell, with anxious eye, looked up at the window of the second story rocm over his of fices en Thayer afreet, the main thor oughfare of ISrentwnod. It was after 10, but all darkness there, and Langdon's iiivarlnhlc rule was to re turn at once from drill and go early to lied. for. winter or summer, be was an early riser. The clerk and assistant who formerly occupied those humble quo rt era had married, moved west to the hills and thrown out bis own shin gle, and I-nngdou thankfully bad mov ed In. The street was still alive with ficople. but the light In the rlflca' ar mory, two blocks away, had been ex tlngulshed before the stroke of 10 at the city hall. In his hand Cresswell held a crumpled half sheet of noto pa per that had reached him through tha mall. It contained only the words; "Your man laughs at warning and de fies the people. If he hasn't left thla town by midnight, he'll never get a chance again." Iiy midnight, and It was now after 10! Only that morning In reminding Langdon that the chief of police had not only issued permission, but advised him, to go armed Cresswell bad asked him If more warnings had reached him, and the new first sergeant took from his breast pocket little note. It waa a woman's hand that penned thla note. "For God'a sako don't disregard this. Von do not know what minute may be yonr last If you Insist on stay ri- - They knoefcal on hammered for two minutes vMhnut response. lng here. These men are desperate." Creaawell bad read It with compressed lips and advised its being given at once to the police. Far and wide the edict of the employees had gone forth. If assurance that the old wagea wonld be restored from and after Not. 1 fail ed to reach them by noon Oct. 2S every mnn would quit work, and ,no man would be allowed to attempt it More thnn once Cresswell had noticed strange, unprepossessing faces among tho loiterers along the block. More than once men had called on one pre text or other at the office and were furtively Interested in the survey of the premises, but the police well knew the barroom blackguards who had threatened vengeance on Langdon for Ms Interference In behalf of the sol dier they were beating to a Jelly, and in person at least tbey dare not act. "It isn't among the slums alone yon have enemies, Langdon," said Cress well. "Tbe bitterest foes a man has to guard against are those who have done him injury, and the men I'm after are those who put tip that safe robbery and gained your discharge. Ob, for an hour of Channlng!" Hut that was vrfln. Channlng, he who commanded the respect and confidence of the yards and shops of the Big Horn, was sauntering discontentedly in the Riviera, doing aa bis doctors bade, utterly homesick, ut terly unable to appreciate or under stand what be saw and only wishing himself back in tbe cnb of a Baldwin, whirling "the limited" over the prairie ) miles an hour. Channlng knew ev ery mother's son In the Brentwood yards by name. The new Incumbent knew not one of them. Channlng argued, Burleigh bullied, and clash wna Inevitable. Tbe management of Inith roads had announced in unefjulvo. cnble terms that they would not yield to tho demands of the men. The may or of Brentwood wa sorely frighten ed. The goemor had been requested to order troops to tbe scene and over awe the would be strikers and very properly refused. For it Is our good American pulley In dealing with ene mies or Insurgents, white, red or brown, mobs. Indians or Tagalogs, nev t er to show fight nntll practically forc ed Into It. The railway companies in anticipation of the atrlke bad gathered some hundnnls of workmen across tbe Missouri ready to be rushed by special train to Brentwood, but neither the po lice, posses nor militia bad been mobi lized. l'ondeiing anxiously over the situa tion, Cresswell was walking slowly homeward tip Tbayer street. lie bsd been talking wltb the mayor and cer tain city fathers at the Brentwood and now wished to see I-angdon, bnt Lang-, don evidently wsso't borne, and tbe town cluck bad struck tbe quarter. Tbe office door waa closed and doubtless lucked, and Cresswell's keys were In Lis workaday pockets at tbe bouse. Confident of meeting Ijiugdon, be strolled on toward tbe armory and be rame suddenly aware of the division superlnu-advnt of tbe Big Horn talk ing wltb two of tbe boys. Cresswell didn't like that official, but for reasons f bis own preferred to make much of him. lie stopped and beld ont bis band. "Oh, good evening, Mr. r ah Colo ael Cresswell,' stammered tbe railway man in some confusion. "1 didn't see you. I'm glad to see you. Can you tell me where I can find Mr. Langdon I've knocked and hammered at the of fice, and these gentlemen say that be rwent straight borne balf an boar ago." "It is true," said one of the young enldlers. "1 saw blin go In there Just tiefore 10 o'clock." "Odd!" aald Cresawell. "Suppose we walk over, Mr. Superintendent" Tbey did, and tbey knocked and hammered for two mlnutea without response, and then Cresawell bethought him of the rear door. "You wish to see him personally?" queried be of the official,. with doubt In his tone. "Yes. The road sent ine an Impor tant message. I may as'well yIl you confidentially, of course. They want him to go to that meeting that's In full blast at this minute. They think the men will listen to him." "I see," said Cresswell, with sarcastic emphasis. "Having kicked him out in to the cold for another man'a crime, they want him to help them out'of an other scrape. You must feel gratified at being the bearer of such a message. However, come on. We'll try the back."- ' . An alley parallel with Tbayer street divided tbe block, and Cresswell's of fice buildings covered about bait the lot Wood, coal and ice were delivered by way of that alley, which accounted for (he worn path to tha open cellar- way, bnt not for the footprints in the snow on the steps lending up to the back door. Cresswell tried the knob, and the door waa fast .But wtio left tbe cellar steps uncovered? "Have you a gun?" he asked, and the superintend ent faltered, "Yes." Gripping his own revolver, a faith' fn friend of Kentucky days, Cresswell cautiously descended the steps and felt his way through the dampness and dark. He bad noimatrh, and lighting would only reveal him to prowlers If there were any. He knew the prem ises thoronghly and quickly reached tbe lower hall and the stairway to the ground floor above him. It waa dark as Erebus, and be. breathing heavily, felt bis way up the creaking flight un til within reach of tbe top. Then something fell with stunning force and danced before his eyes, and be went crashing back the way be came, bound lng, rolling and sliding till he brought up senseless and bleeding atthe foot of the stairs. the back way Herts went Just to Oblige tbe xulunel: "didn't like to of fend hliu M w- f :t I was be noticed that Ike nilmiei iiuii ivs drinking a little, and im li itn-H. as was well AUowu. tin Im ihim t-lon una apt to be t bit sllciaiiirlitl and to fake ofuse CHAPTER XIII. Noon of Oct 28 struck on the deep toned bell of the city ball, Brentwood's pride, and sharp at the sound every band In tbe railway surahs, sheds and yards followed suit and went out So did tbe fires In tbe furnaces In the course of the night, for no man suc ceeded in getting In to replenish them. So did not tbe trains, freight or paasen ger, on cither Big Horn or Seattle, for tho rails were a latbnr of soap, the boll- era a reck of foam. Tbe casualty list in the motive power showed 23 en' ginea "killed," and the only wheels to revolve east or west wvre those trun dling the United States, mall, the oper atives, with calm sagaifty, offering no objection to the running of postal cars. yet firmly opposing everything else. Following the traditions of tbe Big Horn, the new general manager ap peared promptly on the scene, while he of the Seattle sniffed the battle from afar and staid there. Mr. Burleigh came to threaten and command, waa promptly hoisted aboard a hnggnge car and bidden to address the meeting from the rear plntform. which he es sayed to do, the car speed Qy gliding away with him to the accompaniment of much derision and many decided cat calls, not to mention a few k-funct quadrupeds and doubtful eggs. Mr. Burleigh was given a sample of the running qualities of the fast mail down the winding gorge of tbe tied Water and spent the night In blasphemy and bitterness of spirit at Gunnison. -Not even a farmer s huckbourd could he And to take blm back. He wired for the troinlouds of substitutes across tbe Big Muddy, and tbey were ditched ten miles from any town and had to build bonfires out of the wreck until that waa used up and then kept warm with few milea of anow fence that unac countably wcut up In flames. Tbe Se attle sent fit) rinkertons on a special, and thereby precipitated a sympathetic strike across tbe Missouri and the spe cial Into the shallows near the eastern shore well up to thp I'lnkertons' mid dle. When finally rescued, these ama teurs were roosting on car roofs, cold. wet and bedraggled, an object of char ity to the countryside. Then came the order for tir.ops, long withheld, and before It was Issued the Brentwood ri fles knew there would be no first ser geant to call the mil. Somewhere bout midnight of the 27th. dazed and bleeding. Colonel Cresswell had stag gered Into the street In frout of his of- flee, feebly calling for help. The po lice found a pool of blood at the foot of tbe cellar stairs and splashes all along from near the top. but not a sign of struggle elsewhere nnd not a trace of Eric Langdon. Along toward morning Cresswell managed to tell his story. nd then the police wont and routed out the division superintendent, who told a queer tale. When the doctors heard It tbey looked oddly at each oth er and agreed that It were best that Cresswell shouldn't hoar It until he was stronger. It might unduly excite hln now. Cresswell said be left tbe superintendent Mr. Bctrs, on guard at the cellar stairway In the back, yard, revolver In hand, and that be should have seen bis (Cresswell's) assailants when they osde tbelr escape at the rear, the only way they conld have gone. The superintendent said be had met Mr. Cresswell casnally on the street Inquired for Mr. Langdon and went wltb Cresswell to tbe otSce to find him. They knocked until they be lieved that Lan&don couldn't be there. and he (tbe superintendent) desired to search elsewhere, but Cresswell was somewhat persistent that Betts should wait while be went round and tried tatber easllji IVtts said be knew the colonel bad heen at the bar of the Brentwood tbut evening, and after waiting a few minutes Just to assure liliiK'elf I lie colonel was sufely within be Lurried away als.ut bis own busi ness. Had be beard no sound of fall er sv.tgjic? t.ce esbe-J. Not a sound of thst kind. He bad heard some one moving about In the hall and thought of course. It was the colonel. In fact sotto voce, lie added lie thought so still and that under the circumstances tbe tolonel might later hare mled his tooting and fallen headlong. It could not be conceived possible that Mr. Langdon would brutully assault bis friend and benefactor. Now, Cresswell had taken three or four nips of his favorite leverage that evening, but IJonlface swore he waa perfectly himsujf when he left the Brentwood. Tbut might lie, said the )hrewd and somewhat envious lawyer employed by the Big Horn as counsel, and yet might he lie "under alien Influ ences." One of two theories, said the railroad lawyer, could lie derived from the facts, and only two. Mr. Cresswell had fallen down stairs under the influ ence of one of two forces. Bourbon or a blow. If a blow, who gave It but Eric Langdon? No one else was known to have entered those doors that night In all the tense, pent up excitement at tending the Inevitable strike this Inci dent was discussed with bnted breath. Men who knew Cresswell and saw blm that night knew he was not so far gone in liquor as to fall down stairs and therefore believed the story of assault. Men who knew Langdon awore he waa Incapable of assaulting Cresswell. What could possibly be bis motive? Tbe safe stood securely locked. Iesk and drawers were Intact. There were no renxona why Langdon should go ex cept the threats, which be held in con tempt, and every reason w hy he should stay. The railway lawyer hinted at re newal of proceedings by Perrlgo's bank to recover certain mums with interest. The bank, however, being questioned, reluctantly testified that that Incident was closed, satisfactory settlement hav ing lieen made, and ho It bad In Lang do us liebnlf by the big hearted Ken tuck In n mil bis friend the mayor. No; nothing but threats against Langdon'a life could be heard of as a cause of Langdon's !:ki,i: msnce, nothing whatever until the second day of the strike, when two people appeared who said that If guaranteed protection they would tell something. The something proved to tie that an ojieii two horse wagon drove Into tile alley Just before 10 o'clock and drove out again about 10:40. when It bad two more uieu In It who were fiending over something in tbe bottom. These two Jumped out when it reached tbe street Tbey went one way. the wagen tbe other. Then uprose the solid men of Brentwood save the few whose souls were mort gaged to the Seattle or whose notes were falling due at Perrlgo's, and at a meeting beld Just after dark the first check was given to tbe wldespreadlng sympathy felt for tbe strikers through out the community. I'p to this mo ment they bad practically carried all before them. Property had been care fully guarded by the details from tbelr own number. People bad been treated with civility even if denied means of transportation. They were determined. they said, to do nothing to forfeit the good will of friends and fellow cltl zona. Their grievance . was Brent wood's and their oppressors the rival railways. Violence of any kind, said tho strike leaders, would be tolerated only as a last resort Yet here was ev. ldcnce that even before beginning the strike assault, abduction, possibly mur der, could be laid at the strikers' doors. Cresswell still lay in grievous plight, and Eric Langdon could not be found Then evidence began to accumulate. A two horse farm wagon, such aa de scribed, was seen by other citizens driving westward toward the open prairie. A farmer came In and said that such a wagon atopped at tbe ford close to his place about midnight His wife woke him. ssying there waa some thing wrong down at the barn the horses were stamping and snorting. He hurried thither and found every thing secure, but conld have sworn be saw a light dancing away from the barn In the direction of the ford as he Issued from the house. Curiosity there fore led hltn to Investigate, and surely enough be heard voices. Two men were talking In Ion. tones. One of tbelr horses had picked up a atone, and, so tightly was It wedged, they couldn't get It out He gathered that one of them bad been to the barn In hocs of finding a pick. Tbe farmer was on the point of balling them when tbe whistle of the night freight sounded away down the valley toward Brentwood, and he beard one of them say, "My God, there's No. 8 now, aud we can't flag her tbia side of the bridge!" then, apparently speaking to some one w ith in the wagon, continued: "Now, He still If yon value your life! Jump In, Jim, quick!" And wltb that the horses were lashed to a run, and they clatter ed away up the pike In the darkness. About ten minntea later be heard tbe freight rumbling along up tbe valley, and after It had almost got beyond bearing distance to the west there came tbe abort, quick aingle whistle, the signal for brakes. That must have been somewhere abont the long bridge at tbe big bend. That was something nnnsuaL and, coupled with what he heard the men say. It excited his suspi cion. Then when his copy of The Ban ner told him about Langdon's disap pearance he felt sure what It all meant aud therefore came la, to Brentwood to tell his tale. And it was this that brought confusion to Betts and the Brentwood strikers, for It wss now evi dent that Langdon had been spirited away.
