Careful to miss no item, the detective examined tin hand of a crushed felt i>?o and :? gray cap, both >ize l\si, seeking a clue as to where they were b. night i lie aiso searched for hairs from Dennis' head that might cling to them. Similarly, he scrutini/n! !;i: safety razor shaving kit. which wa.-. unmarked. The fugitive had three inexpensive but sporty suits. 1 he misfcellaneous contents of the pock ets included a small revolver, loose change, a handkerchief, a ring of skeleton keys, and a Ha le. "Say, Decker,*, look at this belt ' What do you make of that.-1" sai.i Kankin suddenly. A'bruptly, after his excited excla mation, he broke off and extended, the article in his hands. As he wa repacking it into the suitcase, In happened to study it more closely. It was a finely grained, strong belt of shining brown leather. Smooth and wide, the usual holes were punched at one end: at the other, a heavy brass buckle still glittered brightly, after years of storage and neglect. Rankin's eyes shone, as though at an unexpected inspiration, caus ing Becker to take it with a bewil dered frown. He turned it over. "Well, what about it, Rankin?" he returned. "It's an exceptionally fine piece of leath er, I'll admit; but it's just a belt as far as I can see." "I wonder," the other's voice rang with enthusiasm. "That's just it; it's too good and strong for an or dinary civilian belt. It looks to me very much like a russet belt ? a fair leather belt is the slang for it in the service." "Service?" Becker repeated, obvL ously startled by the suggestion. -?"You mean this is an army belt?" "Either that or a marine belt, lieutenant. Rankin directed his ex planation more t0 Mr. Lewis than to the officer. "No doubt you've noticed service men in the winter particularly soldiers and marines ? wearing heavy khaki overcoats; they put these russet belts around them on the outside. They're something like the Sam Browne belts officers wear about their uniforms." The lieutenant inspected it care fully. "Hut there's nothing on it to indicate that it's part of service equipment," he objected. *'I ahvay supposed the stuff was marked ? either stamped with the name o.~ the corps, or the initials of the arim or navy punched en." "You'll generally find the name of I he depot that issued it," Rankin .igreed. "Hut it's usually placed on .t small loose leather strip, inside; 1 He turned it over. "Well, what about it, Itenkin?" that connects the buckie with tlic loop f? >r tin- end of the belt, to keep it from flapping. And that's eisilv removed. If Dv'infs didn t want the fact 1.11 nv 11 that he had been :n th ? service, be could slip o'l that strip. 1 enlisted during tl.?- w;ir. and from my training camp dsvs I recall that much about my uniform." The lawyer also examined it "It's very likely this is a service belt.' lie then agreed, "only yon mustn't iunip to conclusions. It is possib'e tins didn't come from a post. but from ..n army and fiavv store: I under i Maud iiu y c.oi be purchased 'Here ipjilc easily." i\.! an instant tiiis idea took Ran kin aback; then his conhclence in iiis theory reasserted ii-vlf. " That's a chance 1 11 have to lake." he replied, "But one thing >? cei tain," he added with enthusiasm and excitement. "If Dennis was ever in eitlur military branch, we 11 be making genuine pr.ig?vs>,. 1 hey maintain a complete record oi .their men.' ;*ud we should get valuajie ia lormatiori about him." * * * Despite the optimism lie expressed b'?ut the clue fr- m 1'red Dennis' suitcase. Tommy Rankin fully re -iii/ed the sleiukrinss of the thread n which lie depended. Nevertheless, having progressed as far as possible in nis investiga tions at I'V.'t Wayne, he looked hopefully toward hi- next step. In deed, he had no other avenue of ap proach. In uncovering Dennis as a likely suspect, as; the murderer of Barbara Keith, he' had been favored. The detective r?i;m'it the Man hattan Limited. New York bound: hai necessitated a change at Dar n-burg, for the mo.st direct route io Washington, in the nation's capital he knew were lodged the records of all enli-ted men, as fa: 'Jack as the American Kevolution. Lager and alert, lie nevertheless re tired. and for the second liight in ?succession, slept aboard a train. Sr i:'!.' .'s lie could nr< diet, th.e pursuit ->t Fred Dennis had just b-guu; through six years and in inan> places, because oi I he precarious lit< iic led, he must trail the wauderir, of the culprit. There was no judg ing how long the chase would take him or how far afield. In the morning the detective dis embarked i t the Union Station in I Washing!-:!. Offhand, lie could not be certain exactly which bureau housed the information he sought. Rankin de cided lirst to cover t lie possibility of Dcnni$ having been a marine, and instructed a taxi to drive him to the Navy Building. \\ ithin, his ofl'eial card speedilv gained him the intelligence, at the information desk, that the rocord of enlisted men were in the charg ? of the adjutant-inspector's oflire. Once he proved his bona- fides. Rankin anticipated no difficulty in gaining access to the records lie re quired. Mr. Roche, a blond, dapper young man in a wing collar, was, however, impressed with h;s own importance. Behind his cold politeness the de tective sensed suspicion and antag onism. Rankin did not mention the murder, giving Mr. Roche to under stand that he hunted Dennis as the 1 ringleader of a robber organisation. It was not until the latter realized the magnitude of his quarry's activi i;cs and, mure hi!* had been out m liiau six 'years, 1 1 . . . t 1 affability.
