"No,” Frank anawered. "I shall re

Frank settled all the bills at the ho

handed him a letter.
"This Is queer, sir,” he said, and
pushed the letter qver to Frank, Who
glanced nt the envelope and saw that
It bore the New York postmark and
was addressed to "Reginald Brace-
bridge, Grand Hotel, Boston.”
Full of astonishment, Frank looked
up ut the clerk Inquiringly.
"Better open It,” said he.
Frank did so at once, and with trem
bling Angers, and this Is the astounding
thing he read:

CHAPTER LXXXVI.
More Mystery.
By thin time Franh had had a surfeit
of surprises. They hud become monot
onous. But thl, letter knocked hit
menial balance for the moment quite
out of gear. *
Who on earth was Buxanne, and who
cite could Blbl be but Reginald, to
whom She letter was addreased? What
did It all mean? Wasn’t It enough to
turn any man's brain? He looked up
and saw that the clerk was bursting
with curiosity and got a grip upon him
self nt once.
"It la nothing of any consequence,"
he said, thrusting the precious missive
Into his pocket. "And, oh, here Is a
cab. Don't forget to Bend on that tele
gram should It arrive."
"It shall be uttended to, Mr. Brace-
bridge."
"Well, then, good day.”
"flood day, sir; a pleasant Journey."
Within half an hour FranJt was on
hla wiy to New York. He had selected
a smoking car. and ne sole traveling
companions had two aermnns who
smoked long-stemmtil china pipes and
conversed In a language of which he
had but a very i>erfunctory knowledge.
He could not bring himself to believe
that the baroness had had a hand In
the commission nf this ghastly crlms.
Yel. upon thinking the matter over In
cold blood, whnt would have been
easier than for her to have, arranged
through the medium of a confederate,
the mysterious Buxanne, for Instance,
to have tho telegram forwarded at a
certain predetermined hour for the sole
purpose of foisting that Infernal Sar
atoga trunk, with He ghastly oceupnnt,
upon some unsuspecting fellow trav
eler?
Her seeming agitation upon reading
the telegram might readily'have been
assumed, and In view, of her mysterious
disappearance from Boston nothing
seemed more probable. Whither had
she fled, and did no. the very fart of
her (light of Iteelf Indicate a guilty
knowledge of what was In that ac
cursed trunk? ,
This led to another reneetton. 8u-
sanne’s letter, clearly Intended for no
other eyes than Reginald’s, pointed
unmistakably to his having an absolute
knowledge of the baroness' movements.
Then, too. why was he called "Blbl" by
the writer, whose every word was sug
gestive of there being something more
then mere friendly fenlngs between the
pair?
Deep Reflectione.
Was It credible that Reginald had
sought to hoodwink him by writing
that letter so full of apparent contri
tion? It was a hateful thought. But,
after all. what was one to believe?
Were It true it were equally possible
that In a fit of repentance he had re
frained from posting It; and If so,- but
for hlx sudden death Frank might never
have seep It at all.
This was a new reflection and opened
up fresh conjectures of a very startling
nature. Suddenly Suxanne's letter be
came Intelligible. She was undoubtedly
a'contederate and go-between, to whom.
In the furtherance of hie purpose, Regi
nald had made certain amorous ad-
vances.
A crime had been committed of which
both were cognisant. Had he any
hand In Its commission? Above all,
who was thc'evlctlm? Could Detective
LoftiX theory hove been right after
all? It was a sickening thought that
hl», after all. may have been the su
perior wtxdcm, and that the beautiful
womop, whose Image was always In
FrnnPs mind, had lied In saying that
the man at Saratoga was her husband.
Oood heavens! Could that be the solu
tion of the mystery? Had the two
inen met by some mischance nnd wns
his cousin a murderer? Here at last
was food for very serious nnd somber
reflection, and the more he turned the
awful thought over In his mind the
stronger the conviction grew that he
wns on the right track at last.
Frank's nerves had been so complete
ly shattered by the awful events of the
preceding days that he gave himself up
to the most morbid reflections. In the
face of all his Instincts, all his reason,
he was ready to believe the beautiful
baroness, his distinct kinswoman, an
accessory to the murder.
Frank soon began to draw a mental
picture of the tragedy. Cue more rash
attempt by Reginald to visit the baron
ess possibly—nay, probably, with her
consent. A surprise on the part of the
husband, high words, a scuffle—mur
der. Suzanne a witness; the baroness
(hating her husband, If ahe could be
believed) an acceasory to the crime.
The baroness, who had carried out
her part of the heinous business with
consummate skill, wns doubtless now

Could he believe his eyes?
It was Dr. Carl Mueller.
CHAPTER LXXXVII.
Renewed Hope.
Mueller alive, Mueller within his
reach, triumph In sight, his lovely
baroness—Frank already called her
his. mentally—Innocent. .
All this went like an electric flail?
through, his mind as he grasped his
baggage and sprang out upon the plat
form determined to follow the three
men. But to his dismay they had dis
appeared. This was not so very star
tling. for the train had been a very
crowded one and on the platform now
all was hustle and confusion.
"Perhaps they have all gohe out to
the street." Frank said to himself, and
quickly bent his steps In that direction.

With no result, however, and It was
with a feeling of dlaguat for.hls want ol
alertness that l)e leaped Intn a cab and
ordered the man to drive him to the ho
tel where Reginald had stayed.
As he stepped up to the desk to or
der a room the tlerk recognized him
at once.
"Ah!" said he. “we rather expected
to see or hear from you, Mr. Brace-
bridge, with r regard to your cousln’i
baggage. -What a sad affair. We read
about If In the papers, and knew by
the name there could be no mistake.
There was his telogrqm, too, from Bos
ton, If you will remember."
“Oh. quite so," Frank replied. "I have
Just returned from Boston and the
body Is now on Its way. Yes, It Ja
very* sad affair, Indeed."
' "By the way," he said, "a gentle
man waa here making Inquiries about
him and yourself.”
"Mr. I.oftus?"
"That I* the name he gave.'
"Precisely. He accompanied me to
Boston. I parted with him there this
afternoon. He It by this time on his
way here. I have come, as you sug
gested, to get my cousin's baggage. Will
you kindly have It placed In my room?
I Intend to stay here' tonight."
The clerk was all clvjllty and at once
directions. A few
place. To this hateful convict
Frank arrived long before ho reached
New York.
However, by this time Frank had
begun to feel the detective spirit ripen
Ing fast within him. With or without,
preferably without, the aaalstnnco of
Detective I.oftus. he now meant to
clear up every doubtful point In the
terrlhle business. Reginald dead, he
had suddenly become a millionaire. He
would rid himself at once of business
anxieties by dropping practice outright
and then devote nil his energies to the
quest of the lovely woman who, from
the very flret, had exerted such a dead
ly Influence upon him. She might be
guilty, but find her he must and would.
Curiously enough, Just before reach
ing New York he had occasion to curse
his lmp< .
Hitherto he hnd not paid the slightest
attention to his fellow travelers, but
wns startled at last by hearing the
name Slavlnaky mentioned with great
emphasis, and repeated again and
again.
Then, by listening Intently, he wof
able to piece this word and that to
gether, and to vaguely gather that the
man under discussion had Just return
ed to New York after a mysterious ab
rencc, that he ran a great risk In com
ing to New York, and hla wife a still
greater one, If they should chance to
meet. .
Was It possible that fney were nl-
ludlng to the baroness, and Frank wax
ast thinking that he would give hlx
ead to be assured of that when they
entered the New York terminus.
Frank was gathering up hit smaller
luggage when the two men left the

toilet.
"Now," he said, "for dinner first, and
afterward to the baroness’ hotel. What
startling discovery shall I make there,
I wonder? Nothing can very much
surprise me now, at all events."
More Inquiries.
Frank dined at one of the Broadway
restaurants. Then, feeling strengthened
and reinforced, he girded his loins, feel
ing prepared for whntever might befall,
and proceeded straightway to the hotel
Seating himself in the reading room,
he rang for a waiter, to whom he gave
hla card, with the request that It might
be taken up to the manager, with whom
he dhstred a personal Interview.
Some minutes elnpaed before the
waiter returned. Would the gentleman
be good enough, was asked, to follow
him. Frank did so. and was shortly
ushered Into the presence of the great
man. A newspaper, Frank observed,
was open upon a table before him.
From this he looked up and quietly
motioned Frank to be seated.
"To whom do I owe the pleasure of
this visit, sir?" he asked.
Frank replied that It was In Conner-
tlon with the Baroness Slavlnaky, who,
It wns understood, had been a recent
guest at the hotel.
“As I surmised." he answered,
strange enough, when your card was
brought to me 1 was just rending a
curious paragraph In the paper here, In
which your name Is mentioned."
Frank at once begged to see the par
agraph In question, which he toutm to
be a much condensed report of the cor
oner's Inquiry In Cleveland. Handing
the paper bark, he said;
"This Is quite correct so far as It
goes. I am the person referred to. and
very unpleasant business It t* for
me. too.” 1
"And for us." said he, "the imputa
tion that a crime has been committed
this hotel—and that Is what It
amounts to—Is a very serious one.
Nothing of the kind has ever occurred
here before, and 1 can not bring my
self even now to believe that such a
thing has really happened. Will you
be good enough to give me *11 the de
tails of the case?"
With pleasure, sir," and Frank
straightway related to the uttermost
particular what hod happened In the
train and at Buffalo, together with the
unpleasant consequences that ensued
In Cleveland, adding that the evidence
of the police oftlccr. who had made
Inquiries at this very hotel, went to
corroborate his story In every respect,
so that suspicion no longer attached
to him.
The manager, who had listened with
very manifest Interest to the state
ment, nodded hla head vigorously at
this poln*

He made no mention ot crime, and I
dismissed the matter from my mind.

Frank gave a great start.
"Oh.;Indeed;" he said. "May I In
quire what eort of a man he was? You
can easily comprehend that this Is a
matter In which I am, In a sense, vital,
ly Interested.”
"Exactly," said he. "Well, he was
not a Frenchman, nor An Englishman,
as I knew by his accent which was
not German either. I should Imagine
him to be Russian or a Pole.”
"Clean shaven, or bearded?" Frank
osked.
“Bearded, very- foreign-looking.”

be permuted to ask, was the nature
