WILFUL MURDER.4

Captain Turner Tells of Double

Look-out That Was Kept

for Submarines.

GOING SLOWLY WHEN HIT.

" T h i s appalling crime was contrary to international law and the conventions of allcivilised natio ns, and we therefo re charge

\ the officers of the sub mari ne and the German* Emperor and Government of Germany, under

whose orders they acted, wi t h the cr ime ofwi l fu l and wholesale murder."

_ These were the p l a i n words of the veTdictreturned yesterday at the inquest at Kinsaleupon five victims of the Lusit ania

L I N E R RUNNING SLOWLY.

Dramatic evidence was given at the inq uestby Captain Turner, the commander of the i l l -fated. Lusitania, which, he said, left New York at noon on May 1.

The Corone r: Yo u were aware that threatsha d been made that the ship would be torpedoed? Witness: We were.

"Was she armed?" "No , s ir ."" W h a t precautions did you- tak e!"" We had al l the boats swung when we came

within , th e danger zone between Fastnet and thetime of the accident."Di d you receive any message wi t h reference

to submarines being off the I r i s h coast ?Yes.What was the nature of the message 31 must

refer yon to the Admira l ty for an answer to that-question.

Although the Lusitania 's normal speed wastwenty-five knots, during war time they went attwenty-one, and at the time of the disaster theywere running slowly so as to arrive at LiverpoolBar two ot three hours before high water, sothat he co uld, go in without waiting for thep i l o t . .

" Was a lookout kept for submarines 2 "" Yes; a double lookout."" Di d you see any submarines? "" None whatever; not a sign of them."

NO CONVOY.

" Was any warship convoying you ? "" None whatever. I did not see one."The eaptain described how the ship was

struck, and.,the coroner asked : " I take it youremained o n the bridge ? "

Witness.: Yes ; sir; all the time. I went downwith , her about eighteen minutes after she wasstruck.

Early yesterday morning, says a Central Newsmessage f r om Queenstown, a start was madew i t h the removal o f the f i r s t coffins containingbodies of victims of the Lus itania, in preparat i o n for the funera l in the afternoon.

. IEhe coffins were brought from the town liallon all^ kinds of conveyances, d own to the mostprimitive bier ever seen.Xhiring the work of transference i n the after

noon the.route was lined by units fxem the Fusiliers and Connaught Bangers.A Requiem H i g h Mass was celebrated in t he

cathedral yesterday morning

BRINK CONTROL BOARD.

A Committee, on which lab our is to be represented, is to be appointed to inquire into thewhole question of intemperance amongst theworkers.

The. Committee was suggested by the labo urmembers i n the House of Commons last night,and Mr . Lloyd George, repl yin g on debate on.the Government's drink control proposals, saidhe would be happy to set up such an inquiry .

The Chancellor also announced that the B i l lembodying the Gov ernment plan to assumecontrol of the liquor trade in par ticular areas(Defence of the Realm (Amendme nt) No. 3B i l l ) , would be administered'by a central board.

This board would consist of representa tives o fthe War Office, Admiralty, Home Office and. ofthe workers and of the employers, and therewould,, in. addition, be local committees.

Wherever an area was declared , said theChancellor, the Government: w o u l d take overthe sole co ntro l of the sale of l iquor w i t h i n it sbounds.

Mr . Bonar Law said they might rely on thefairness of the tribu nate which the Chancellorhad chosen,

Mr . A rt h u r Henderson thanked the Chancellorfo r agreeing- to an inquiry , and the B i l l wasread: a second tim e.

T H R E A T OF MORE MASSACRES.

' W hat w i l l President Wilson do to avenge th e

American victi ms of the Lusita nia and to pro

tect the lives of Americans i n fu ture?

So far no indi cati on of his plans comes f rom

Washington . He is stated to have remained

alone in his study for hours.

Meanwhile Herr Demburg continues to boast

that Germany w i l l carry out further massacres

at sea. I t is declare d by hi s agents in New

York that the Transylvania, now on her way

to England, w i l l be torpedoed.President Wilson and his advisers feel that

the time for protest is past, says a Central NewsWashington telegram, and that the time foraction has arrived.

Th e course of action to be pursued by theUnited States w i l l be discussed by th e Cabinetto-day.

It is thought likely that the Administration wi l lsever diplomatic relations with Germany pendingan apology and complete reparation.

It is certain, however, that Congress wi l l not besummoned, which is equivalent to saying thatthere is as yet no thought of war.

Scores of Germans who have sought to defendthe murderers' deeds have been thrashed in thestreets.

The New York Herald appeared in m our n ingyesterday. At the top of each page were thewords: " I n memoriam. The American men,women and chi ldren lost oh board theLusitan ia." On the edito rial page were thewords, several times repeated an d prin ted incapitals : " What is President Wilson going todo about it ? What a pi ty Roosevelt is not President of the United States to-day! "

Count von Bernstorff, the German Ambassador, called at the Department of State i nWashington yesterday, says the Central News,an d expressed Germany's deep Tegret at the lossof America n lives by the torpedoing of theLusitania. -

At both the Stock Exchange and the Balt icmembers of German, Aust rian or Turkish o r i g i nwere excluded yesterday and formally forbiddento enter these places of business.

On Saturday a special meeting was heldamong representat ive membe rs of the StockExchange, and as a result about 150 German-born members received a note requesting themnot to enter the " House " in futur e.

Despite this request, a number of members ofalien o r i g i n arriv ed at the Stock Exchange asusual yesterday. They found awaiting them atthe doors a determined guard of Br i t i s h StockExchange members, who to ld them that if theyhad not sufficient sense to keep away theywould be forcibly ejected.

ITlie Kaiser's air Huns are doing their best torival the sea Huns.

IThat German blood lust has in no way beensated by the stupendous crim e of the Lusi -tania, was shown yesterday when a Zeppelinappe ared over the Thame s and dropp ed JOObombs on Southendjust thirty-e ight milesf r o m London.

IJombs were dropped on Southend, Westcliffan d Leigh, one woman being ki l led in herbed and several persons injured.

'A fatuous official German state ment, is sued last i

night , ran :!' One- of our a irshi ps d ropped some bombs onth e fortified place of Southend, at the estuaryof-the Thames."

Southend, as the Germans wel l know, is apleasure resort. I a every ai r ra id they havetaken good care to avoid fortified places. Toattack such centres would require pluckj so,of course, they exhibi t their m i l i t a r y prowessby bravely "bombing''.s easide towns and in l a n d village s. Thu s the Huna take revenge onthe " hated English ."

Damage estimated at about 10,000 was caused;foy the bombardment. Pour houses and a 't imber-yard were burne d out and six. otherbuildings were struc k. The night sky wasi l l umina te d by the l u r i d .glow of th e con- .flagratioas. ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^

Many persons clearly saw a Zeppelin, " a huge,silver-coloured, crg.rTshi*ped balloon," hoveringfor a quarter of an hour oyer the town, which-itmethodically pelted ^ with explosive bombs.

Hundreds- of civilians lent a hand at the workof fighting the flames.

Nowhere was there any sign of panic.Many mothers brought out their children, bo

that they should see the barbarous work of theGermans.

Not a few of the youngsters 3eemed rather toenioy their novel and exciting experience.

The hoot ing of a war-siren, -which had previously been .arranged by the authorities, acted as a

- warning of the enemy aircraft.The loud whirring of the airship's motor, the

red glare of the sky, the sounds of the hurryingof -the populace, quickly made a scene tha t was :unforgettable1 1

Were the airships makin g for London ?"That was the thou ght uppermost in mostpeople's minds.

T i e airship was -seen at Pitsea, ten milesnearer to London than Southend. She was firedat. and, i t is believed, hit. Fitsea is tweaty-sis 'miles f rom London.

Bu t the Zep peli n, it is stated, got even nearerthan that. Officials at Romford-Railway Stat i o n , only a dozen miles f r o m London, reportedthat they saw the airship f ly ing on the south ofth e line, and tha t she was i n difficulties eitherf rom, wind or damage.

When the Komford men saw her the Zeppelinhad turn ed and was retur ning towards Chelmsford .

Thames forts are also reported to have drivenoff the airship w i t h their fire.

BOMBS BACK AND FRONT.Mr . A. E. Araott , of Marine-parade, Leigh-

bn-Sea, said : " I went to bed fa i r ly early lastnight , and was in a sound sleep whe n at about2.55 I was awakened by the .noi se o f a terrificexplosion, my bedroom being l i gh t e d tip so thatI could see every object in it quite dis t inct ly .

" Jumping out of bed, 1 rushed; to the windowand found that an incendia ry bomb t a d droppedin the middle of the road outaide my house, adistance oi a "few yards.

" About ten seconds after the first explosion Iheard another. Tin3 was in a garden at theback of my house, akou t sixty yards away.

OUTLINED IN LIGHT.'* Hurrying into the street, I found two special

'constables already on file scene, while people wererushing out of their houses i n a half-dressed condition.

"Looking toward Ganvey Island, I saw. andheard i n quic k succession three more explosions,and^then one of the special constables pointed outa^Zeppelin, which resembled an elongated pencil,high up in the sky.

When th is vessel waa. over Canvey Isl and,which seemed to be i n a blaze ofl ight , I saw herturn, and she came back over my house again.

" New l.ondon-road was ful l of cyclists going offin the dire ction of Southend, and the neighbourhood seemed ful l of half-dressed people."X he Zeppel in showed no lights u n t i l she

passed over Southen d. The n she appeared to beoutl ined with l ight , but thi s may have been thereflection of flames beneath upon her envelope."

BRITISH WOUNDED SHOT

BY PRINCE'S ORDER.

German Deserters Report That 40 Men Were

Burned Aliye in HangarMedals for Fiends.

Appall ing details of the systematic shooting

of B r i t i s h prisoners and a report that for ty :

B r i t i s h soldiers were burn ed alive in a ha ngarare contained in a dispatch, issued last night ,.

which has been received by Sir E. Grey f r o m th e

B r i t i s h Minister at The Hague.

These terrible revelations are contained i n de

clarat ions .made before the B r i t i s h Vice-Consul

at Rotterdam by Mr . J. M a r t i n , editor of the

Rotterdamsch Nieuwsblad,and by Mr. N. J.

va n Ditmar, Press correspondent, of Rotterdam. :Mr. Mar t in states that on .March 16 a deserter

of the German A r m y , RichaTd Lorenz, nativeof Brauns chwei g, and of the 208th Regim ent,appeared at his office and made the fo l lowingstatement :

He began by calling the Bavarian soldiers pigs,and abused them for Vilbng- unarmed men withtheir hand? up arid anxious to surrender, and alsoof shooting British_ prisoners of war. -

He stated that the Bavarian regiments, underPrince Ruprecht, had received formal orders tomake no Bri t i sh prisoners, and that those soldierswho made them were severely punished.

He heard from fellow-soldiers how, once, aboutforty British prisoners were -burned alive i n ahangar and that the men wlio committed this-atrocity received a medal for it . '

Lorenz stated that this order was only directedagainst Bri t i sh soldiers, and existed exclusively

. in the Bavarian Army.

SHOT FIVE PRISONERS.

On March 18 another German deserter calledon me, says Mr . M a r t i n . He was FriedrichKuller, born at Lndwichshaven {Bavaria).,twenty-two years old, appertaining to the 22ndRegiment, 5th Company, 3rd Machine-gun Sect i o n on the 2nd Bavarian A r m y Corps.

This man struck me as being essentially as tupid creature, and it was impossible that hewould have sufficient intelli gence to invent thefo l lowing t h r i l l i n g story.

Bri t i sh prisoners were not sent to Germany, butkilled. He stated that he himself had shot fiveBri t i sh prisone rs a few days before he deserted.

On my question as to whether the Bavarian,soldiers shot these unarmed on their own in itiative or under ordeTs, he stated that they werebrought up to be shot by a section, under the command of an officer.

BRITISH WOUNDED EXECUTED.

On March 19 another deserter came to see me 'August Kahlm ann , born at Karthaus {nearDantzig), twenty-five years old, and appertainin g to the 35th Regiment Infantry, 5th Company,7th D i v i s i o n .

His statement was practically identical. Hestated that Bri t i sh prisoners were brought to thequarters with their hands bound behind theirbacks and with bandaged eyes, and that they were.not told they were to be shot.

They were executed under the supervision of the'.commanding officer. I asked M m if -there were

any wounded amongst them and he answered thatnearly all were wounded.

The Story of an Ambitious Marriage.

By MURIEL NELSON,

N e w R e a d e r s B e g i n H e r e .

C H A R A C T E R S I N T H E S T O R Y .

MARJORIE PRESCOTT. A beaut iful, but verynatural and charming gi r l .

MRS. PRESCOTT. Her mother, whose chiefambit ion has been that her daughter sho uldmake a b r i l l i a n t marriage.

RUPERT KERNEY. A straightforward, unassumin g young barrister, who is directly connectedw i t h th e peerage.

A C H A R MIN G girl in white is standing on thebalcony of a priva te hotel i n Bayswater, enjoy

ing the fragrance of the nigh t. There is somethingoddly suggestive of' captivity about tne gracetmwhite figure. Then she goes indoors. _

In the bril l iant l ight of the room it is easy tosee why people's eyes often look at Map one res -cott. Her beauty makes her stand out anywhereThe girl herself was free and unaffected, and lookedit , but Mrs. Prescott had long ago made up her mmdthat Marjorie should make a great match.

On her way to her room a young man namedCharlie Exton stops her and asks to be allowed topresent his friend, Rupert Kerney. . Kerney is a well-knit young fellow, with a clean-cut, clean-shaven, m obi le face. Directly he greetsher he recognises her as a girl he had met campingout with other girls the preyious summer, andwhose charming image he had never forgotten.

The girl is equally delighted to see him.It is obvious that Kerney is badly h it. Jixton

seeing how serious Kerney is, promises that ne "willdo what he can for him. f

Rupert Kerney is really old Lord Cressingham snephew and heir, and Ext oil's quick brain seizes atthe opportun ity" to do himself a b it of; good

Mrs. Prescott tells Exton that if he can help her6

ambitions to materialise and bring about a matchhe wi l l not be forgotten.

This is not difficult, a? Kerney is very much in

love indeed . The youn g people see a tremendouslot of each other.

# * * # . *

Finally, Rupert Kerney declares.hi3 love to -Marjorie. . He pleads passionately. " Sweetheart," heavers, " I will-do my best to make you happy."

Marjorie -consents. "Rupert," she says, " I havenever cared for any man but you."

The wedding is hastened. After the ceremony thebride and bridegroom go back to the hotel with the

:guests. Mrs. Prescott is proudly happy; her dearestAmbitions are realised.' Passing through a room she glances idly at ;asociety paper. She gets a terri ble shock, for in i t lis

:

the announcement of Lord Cressin^ham's marriageTo Lexie Moreen, of the H i la r i ty Theatre 1

Mrs. Prescott, in her bitter disappointment, pract i c a l ly tells Kerney that Marjorie married him forbis prospects.

Al l Kerney's world tumbles about him . He isdazed io r' the time being. Then he says, heavily,

: " I "will "not come back un t i l I . can keep my.wife in;

the style she expects." and walks out of the room.Marjorie. who really loves her husband, is broken

hearted. She announces her intention of going after,him.

Kerney goes straight to hia rooms, and accepts a- big law case in Scotland. He is just leavin g when

a letter comes. It is from a girl named Leonore, forwhom he had had a sentimental affection yearsbefore. She says she is now free, and .asks him tocome to her. He leaves the letter and goes out. .

Marjorie follows him _ to his room3 and, seesthis letter. She is terribly upset, and, returning

- home tells her mother that she can no longer be. a

^ burden to her, and, as she seems to be_ of no use toanybody, nhe will try to do .something i n the world.In searching for work she meets Philip Redmayne,

a middl*-aged man, whom she had known since achild. He proposes marriage to her, but finding thisimpossible he offers to be her friend and arrangesthat she shall have a position in a manicure establishment.

In the meantime Rupert has returned to his rooms.Leonore calls on him. but finding that he is married she etorrns out after tearing Marjorie's photograph across.

At the manicurist's one day Marjori hears awoman talking about her husband. " He realiseswhat a horri ble mistake his marriage was," thewoman adds.

L A D Y C R E S S I N G H A M !

TITARJORIE sat pale and r i g i d for a moment.The room seemed to swim roun d her. T hen

she bent lo w over her client' s hands to hide thet rembling of her lips: and the sudden gush oftears that rose to her eyes.

Was it true, then, that Ru pert looked on theirmarriage as a horribl e mistake ? But, of course,he must. How else could i t appear to him whenhe imagined that she had marrie d hi m only, fo rhis money ?

I n a flash she realise d who had been speaking.There was only one person who could use thosewordsRupert. This woman, whom she could

no t see, whose careless, drawling voice hadstabbed her to the heartmust he Leonore. Atlast she was to see who it was that h ad robbe dher of a hus band .

He r client left . The rooms were rapidlyemptying, for it was the luncheon hour. Presently the woman she was wait ing for rose f r o mher chair and came towards her.

She was t a l l and elegant, dressed entirely inblack, which set off to perfecti on her d u l l ,creamy complexi on. She had masses of burnished chestnut ha ir swept off her ,b row andears and queer amber eyes.

Marjorie caught her breath, but looked herr i v a l f u l l i n the face as she passed. I t seemedto her that there was a sneering lookof t r i u m p hi n the glance she thr ew towards her. Bu t thatmust be fancy. This woman could not knowthat she was Rupert Kerney's wife.

" Handsome, isn 't she S " said Miss Chester'svoice at her elbow.

" Yes, very."- Who is she ? ""She was the wife of ol d Hastin gs, the tobacco

mill iona ire . He died a mont h ago, but sheseems to take he r sorrow l i g h t l y . "

(Translatio n, dramatic and all other right s secured.)

Miss Chester gave a sarcastic l i t t l e laugh. " Iremember when she married hi m, " she eontinued. " Like everyone else, Leonore Denneythought he had one foot in the grave. But hkept her wait ing eight yearsand I believe hele d her a l ife of it I She threw over anotherman to marry himher cousin, I believeandnow, they say, she is determined to many him."

" She's very fascinating," said Ma i jorie slowly.

" Not at all the style I adm ire, " said MissChester decidedly. ""St i l l , she's piquant andinte nsely moder n. Me n go crazy over her, so Idare, say she w i l l manage to bring down herb i r d . "

An d Miss Chester, who prided herself on herintimate knowledge of the private affairs of ha l f London, departed to her lunch.

Bu t Marjorie had no appetite for lun ch. Shesank dow n int o an easy-chair and sat staringstrai ght before her, her head suppo rted on hertwo hands an d th inking hard:

Leonore Hasting s was a dangerous r iva l ,more dangerous even than she had at first expected. She was fascinat ingthere was nodou bt about that . Men went crazy about her,Miss Chester had said. Yes, she coul d w el l believe it . W i t h her copper-coloured hair *ndcurious amber eyes, she was provocativethatwas the word.

Oh, the whole story was clear enough to hernow. Rupert had been in love w i t h this womanfor years. He had been heartbroken when shehad thro wn hi m over. But seeing her marrie dand out of reach, he had begun t o forget her.

I f only he had been allowed to forget!Then she had come int o his l i fe. (In spite

of the pain at her heart, Marjorie continuedto reconst ruct the story.) He had take n apassing fancy to her, and her mother had flungher at his head. He had drifted into marriagew i t h hei I She dug her nails into her p almsas she repeated th is to herself.

St i l l , even so, they might have been happy ifth e past had remained buried . They had bothbeen happyshe was sure of thatduring thosefew weeks of their courtship. But Leonore hadreappeared, and stirred his memory. She hadcast her old spell over him once again. Sheha d made him forget that he was married. . . .

Marjorie's anger flamed out against Rup ert.Wh y had he come into her l ife only to wreck it,she asked herself passionately . Why had he notleft her her lighthearted girlhood instead ofdragging her into th is welter of emotions ?

She jumped up and paced up and down theroom, her face working w i t h emotion. Oh, itwas cruel the way he had l e f t he r without givingher another chance to explain . . . After all , hehad married her of his own free w i l l . I t wasunpardonable to leave her at the bid ding ofanother woman. Never, never, would she forgive him tha t !

Then suddenly her anger died away. Whatever Rupert had done, whatever he might do,she knew she would love, hi m always.

He r overwrought nerves gave way. Shecovered her face w i t h her hands and burst intoa passionate flood of tears.

" Why , whatever is the matter? "Marjorie raised her head sharply and made a

violent effort to rega in her composure. A g i r lof about her own age was standin g regard inghe r w i t h astoni shment . She was dark andsmall, fashionably and a l i t t l e oddly dressed,w i t h high l i g h t topp ed hoots and an exaggeratedmuslin ruff about her neck. There was someth ing vaguely famihaT, Marjorie thought, abouther face.

" I ' m awful ly sorry," said the neweomeT w i t hunaffected sympathy. "I s there?anything I cando for you ? "

" I ' m af raid not, thank yo u." Marjorie smiledand hastily wiped away the traces of her tears." It was idiotic of me to break down l i ke that.I thought I was quite alone."

" I suppose it's a man," said the other gi r l ." I t always is. But , my dear, you're much toopretty to be crying your eyes out over any man."There was such genuin e concern i n the ton ethat Marjoiie could not resent the other'scuriosity.

" I t ' s only nerves," -she said, patting back aloose strand of hair into its place.

" Nerves I " cried the other incredulously."Howeve r, of course, if you don't want to t e l lme. it's none of my business! I came back formy parasol. I left i t behind."

She crossed the room and returned w i t h th eparasol, " I wish yo u would come and lunchw i t h me one day," she said. " I'v e often seenyo u here, and I ' m sure we should be friends."

W i t h an im pulsi ve movement she took Mar-jorie's hands in her own and kissed h er.

" Thank you. I should love to." Marjcriesmiled back at her, feeling unaccountablycheered by this display of friendliness. " Won' tyo u t e l l me your name?" she asked.

'' Of course, how s i l ly of me to forge t! I amLady Cressingham."

Then Marjorie remembered; it was LexieMoreen, of the H i l a r i t y Theatre, the g i r l wh ohad so upset her mother's plans.

R U P E R T S E E S M A R J O R I E .

RUPERT K ERN EY walked down the steps of

his club in Piccadill y and proceededleisurely i n the directi on of the Circus.

It was a lovely morning. The sun shonebrightly i n a deep blue sky. He should havebeen in ex cellent spirits, for .the ease wasshaping w el l . The. great. Hunte r, h is seniorcounsel, had complimented him on the s k i l lw i t h which he was.buildi ng up, step by step, afabric of evidence which the cleverest counselon the other side would find it difficult toexplain away.

B u t Ruper twas l o o k i n gt i red . H a r dwork and sleepless nights hadset their markon his face.The men atthe club hardly

recognised himas the easygoing Kerney ofa few weeksa g o . T h e yglanced at himw i t h scarcely.concealed cu r i osity on therare occasionson which hewas seen, forr u m o u r s of something unusual in his "marriage had got abroad. L i k emost rumours, these ha d l i t t l e relati on to thereal facts of the case.

At the corner of Dover-street Rupert pausedto l i g h t a cigarette. Sudden ly his atte ntio n wascaught by a g i r l just turn ing into the underground station. There was something familiarabout hersomething that made his heart givea leap and his pulses begin to beat w i ld ly .Was it, could it be Marjorie ? He realised moreclearly than ever how he had been hunger ingfor a sight of her all these days. Without stopping to th ink, he turned and walked swiftlytowards the station.

He caught the. fiutter of her skirt. Then thedoor of the l i f t was slammed i n his face.

Too late ! He r train would have started beforethe next l i f t left th e level.W i t h a muttered exclamation he made foT the

stairs and raced down that never-ending spiraltwo steps at a time . Was there no end to thoseinferna l stairs ?

He beard the t ra in draw up in the stationbelow. At last! He rushed across th e pla tformand, pushing back the gate that was already he-ginning to swing to, brushed past a protestingcondu ctor an d entered the car as it began tomove.

He peered into the next car. Yes, there shewasMarjorie herself, as beautiful and desirable as ever! Bu t was it his fancy, or was therereally a mournful droop at the corners of herbow-shaped m out h ?

Hi s heart smote him. Had he perhaps beentoo hasty in judging the g i r l ? Di d she, after all ,care for him a littleenou gh to make her grievefor hi s absence? I f she eared for him at all,what a. brut e she mus t th ink hi m to go awaywithout a word . . .

What he meant to do he did not know. Thesight of her had gone to his he.ad. He couldnot th ink. He only knew that he must not losesight of her. Perhaps he would speak to herask her whether i t was not all some horr iblemistake. But not in the t ra in , i n front of allthese people !

Th e t ra in drew up at Piccadilly, Rupert kept

hi s eyes f ixed on her to see if she meant toalight. But she sat s t i l l , staring straight infront of her. The people crowde d on to thet ra in . For a br ie f moment he lost sight of her.

Then sudden ly realisi ng tha t she was passingher station, Marjorie jumped up and made he rway out. Rup ert saw her as she reached thepla tform. W i t h an exclamation he was up,pushing his way through the straphangers i nthe compartment.

This time the conductor b arred his way." Too late, sir, you must wait for the next stat i o n , " he said. For the second time that mor nin g th e i r o n gates clanged in front of him,shutting him off f rom Marjorie.

Runer t ground his teeth and swore under h isbreath. But a tube t ra in is the surest ofprisons. There was nothin g for it hut a dashback f r o m Leicester-square.

He emerged f rom the station and lookedrou nd for a taxieab. The luck was s t i l l againsth i m , and there was none to be had. He sta rtedOff at a swinging pace back towards Piccadilly-circus. .

The West En d was crowded . There werewomen bent on shopping forays ta lk ing to gether i n animated groups of two and three.There were bevies of the atri cal girls, aloof an ddistant in their manner. There were clerksand shopgirls taking a midday stroll before ret u rn i n g to their work- I t was a hopeless taskto f ind a partic ular woman in all this thron g.Of what use was it eagerly to fo l low a whitedress when every second woman seemed to bein white 1

Rupert looked roun d hi m despairingly. Oncehe saw a figure far ahead that seemed to be
