EXClTEMFJfV AT THE I nAST W0I1K.
THE Durant gun works was In a
fever of excltennt. Ever since
the forging of" the Summers
gun events of mortnnce had
happened in such close snccewslon that
about tbe works generally was the
feeling of stunned amazement. Tbe
office force and even the bands when
they met would look nt each other
fearfully. What would happen next?
No one could tell. But all were sure
something dreadful mlgbt be expected.
First bad come the tight In tbe fur
nace room, when Sommers was nearly
killed: then the discharge of Sniitj.
but with tbe rumor that he bad gone
to work In another plant controlled by
Mr. Durant: oeit bad followed a ter
rible explosion of the Sommers gun.
and now was the shipwreck, tbe won
derful rescue through J be bravery ol
Sommers and Frances Durant. finally
to culminate in a rigid Investigation to
be held In tbe Duraut work. So no
wonder tbe ibouxands connected dt
rectly and Indirectly with tbe Durum
works were In a fever of excitement.

As soon as the Mongolian reached
New York the survivors of the lrve.-
had landed. Pinckney tin tried to Pitts
burg on the first train, but Sommer
stayed over a few honrs to make the
trip with Fram-es and her mother
Mr. Durant bad met them there, and
ail came on together. The steel man
was not given to many words. Som

They had wrung each other's hand

iJeorge Durant nodded In agreenient.
"I'll give him ever chance, my
dear." h said. "Olve blm a chance,
that's all anr man can ask."'
Now the day tf Sommers' chance
was at hand, for Mr. Durant bad put
bis books a.f tbe entire force of tbe
works In charge of Bradley to ferre
out the truth.
PInckney, with a few honrs start
hurried in the :orks as fast as pn
Me. He wanted to meet Marsh before
the Investigation lecna. lie must
know what Marsh bad told Bradley.
Their stories mu-t sgree. But tbe first
blurted question brought another aur
prise to the chief consplratnr.
"I taten'f seen any secret service
man. There hasn't been any around
here." protested Marsh.
Pimkney shook bl head Impatient
ly.
"Don't fo,,!h. Marsh. Too saw
blm and talked to blm. He questioned
yoa here nearly a month ago. Ills
name waa Bradley."
Marb. thoroughly frightened at the
Idea of secret service men working on
a case, could only redouble bla pro-
teat.
"I haven't seen him, I haven't talked
to anybody I didn't know In a month."
PInckney gave a relieved algb.
"Then be bluffed me." he said. 'But
now listen. This Investigation la com
ing off today. We're all right. If yon
keep your bead for half an hour yon
can't go wrong. And we begin work
on government contract for tbe
Bblnectrom tomorrow."

Don't let blm frighten you. He'll try
to. but keep your nerve. If he nsfcs

Marsh, naturally nervous, was now
trembling wltb fear, j :? ;
"You know of those killed and
wounded. Mr. PInckney, We both de
serve state's prison for It."
PInckney grabbed the little mnn by
the shoulder to shake some courage
Into blm. ' -

be cried angrily. "I feel as bad abonf
the accident aa you do. but we can't
think of that now. It's state's prison
or a fortune for you. Marsh. Now
keep your nerve. How did we know
the gun was going to explode? I never
thought It would stand the test at the
proving ground. Come on In the office,
and I'll glv you a drink to brace
you." s . (v .'' " :
They were still In the Inner room
when Brad' -v. cool and debonair, as
usual, strolled Into tbe outer oflk e.
"How are you?" be said genially to
Maxle O'Brien, the pretty stenogra
pher, pegging away In one corner at
her machine. "I was looking for Mr.
PInckney."
"ne'a In tbe Inner office with Mr.
Marsh." responded the girl.
Bradley nodded.
"Sure. n sent for Marsh as soon as
he cn me. did n't her ;
"Yes." replied the girl curiously.
"How did 'hi know thatr
Bradley smiled.
"Mind reader." he sngtrested. then
added, wltr a serious explanation. "I
have an ccragfnient with him. so I
thought they'd lie walling for me."
"Shall I tell him you are berer
asked tbe stenographer.
Bradley made a hasty objection.
"Oh. no; don't bother. I'll wait till
they get through. I was Just going to
see fbem on a little bnslnes almut the
Kblnestrom gun. And that reminds me.
Give me Mr. Rblnestrom's address,

"Why. I've never cent blm any let
