The Unmasking.

silent wonder, touched with an
almost scjiorstitious fear. For

"Quite so! Yes. I see, Andrew."
Then he intrtKluced the vital subject:
"lias anybody been In this room, to

AVa in wright had by no means expect-e-!.

again."
"And no one else has been here ex
cept members of the family?"
"No. sir: no one except myself."
The very fact that in the final phrase
the butler had omitted the customary
"sir" caught WainwrJght's attention.
It was suspicion that suggested bis
rest question:
"Was the person who called left
alone in this room?"
Andrew met the issue with the enor
mous audacity that was characteristic
of him when it did not run counter to
his scheming. Now. according to his
plans, the hour for unmasking was
come. He spoke tranquilly:
"No. sir. He was not alone in this
room nt any time. I am quite sure,
sir." He paused to give emphasis to
his question. "Why. sir? Has any
thing teen taken?"
"No." Wainwright replied carelessly,
"nothing has been taken."
P.ut Andrew was not yet content
with the situation. He was. In fact,
minded to implicate himself mnr ex
plicitly, though not by a distinctly
overt act. no selected as his agent in
this the detective, who had been scru
tinizing the butler with professional
closeness.
"May I venture nn observation, sir?"
Andrew asked his employer. Then, as
Wainwright nodded cssent, "It's only
this, sir. that the next time Mr. Mar
shall sees me he will lie sure to know
me." With the saying he went softly
out of the room, while the detective
sat staring, agape with indignant sur
prise at the impertinence.
Wainwright spoke iu n low tone, yet
most emphatically:
"Marsha!!." he s-id. tbf nort time
your brother oliicers bortst of thir ac
quaintance with prominent men. you
may say that, face to face, you have
met the Master Mind.'
Marshall said not a word, only re
garded the speaker with amazement.
He threw n quick glance toward t!i
doorway through which Andrew had
disapjeared.
"You don't mean him?" he exclaim
d.
"Precisely."
In a second Marshall was on his
feet, his eyes snapping with eagerness,
all energy and alertness.
"It's the chance of my life!" he ex
claimed gleefully.
"What do yon intend to do?"
Tbe detective grinned triumphantly
"What do I intend to do?" he repeat
ed. "Why. I intend to slip the brace
lets on him inside of two minutes."
, "Permit nie to ask. on whnt charge?"
TTi eagerness droou-.d viiblx
"On w hat "charge ':" lie- quoted hclp
essly. "Why" He hailed, at a loss.
"Yes; on what charge?" Wainwright
snapped. "Oh. come, man!" he exhort
ed. "Just sit dov.u aud think it over
a bit- As a matter of fact, we're Ltli
less against this fellow. If you have
anything else to suggest"
The detective threw up hi hands 3n
a gesiure eloquent of despair. His
voice was ungry:
"I dont know."
Wainwright walked slowly up the
stairs and along the upprr hr.U to tbe
door of his wife's boudoir, where he
knocked gently. He entered in re
sponse to her call, "Come in." and
went to her where she was standing
expectant and took her hands. She
was dressed in a blue neglige that em
phasized the purity of her pearly skin
and enhanced the sapphire radiance cf
the eyes. Now she looked at her bus
band intently aa be approached her,
and it seemed to him that a faint
trace of anxiety lay beneath her sur
face greeting. He had need to put
forth tbe full strength of his will to
conceal tbe wretchedness of his
thoughts.
' "I'm sorry if I disturb yon, dear."
lie regarded her searchinsly. "You
are looking a little fagged."
"I have a right to be tired." Lucene
Bnswered brightly, "for I've been help
ingmother with her packing."
"Now, what does that mean?" the
husband Inquired, surprised. "Are your
estimable parents planning to leave
us?"
"Yes." the wife replied. "I didn't
knowHhat you badht heard the sad
news."
Wainwrighfs lips tightened. To
him. mindful of the symbolism of the
black card, this swiftly arranged
partial breaking up of his household
Doeaxed as a confirmation of the worst
fears.
"And Andrew T'
"Oh. yes; he goes with them, Of
course, since he was really only loan
ed to us."
Then he added, curiously: "It's all
a bit sudden, isn't it?"
"Yes." L,ucene said contentedly, -"it
all came up and was decided like
that." She snr.pped her fingers airily.
lie spoke very gravely:
"Lucene. I came t you to say some
thing of a certain important matter."
The wife drew her bauds from his,
and moved a little- away from him. de
jectedly. "Please. Cortland." she pleaded,
"can't you wait until tomorrow? I am
so tired."
"Lucene." be said very seriously, "I
have an enemy one iu particular, I
mean, n man who is powerful."
"An enemy you!"' she t ried, incredu
lously. To her, who worshiped him, the
bare Llea seemed preisterous. absurd
ly impossible.
"Yes. an enemy." Wainwright repeat
ed, with added energy "Didn't yott
know It?"
"No. I never guessed anything of
this," she said, now thoroughly fright
ened at the thought of peril for him.
"now should I know anything of it?
You never told nie!"
Wainwright answered frankly.
"I have toid you already, Lucene.
that I sometimes feared lest you had
some anxiety you kept secret from me.
You explained the cause of your dis
tress to mi Yet I thought there was
a remote possibility that you might be
able to tell me some thing more."
The wife watched her husband as
he thus spoke with an astonishment
into which blended reproach.
"What is it yon wish to know?" she
said, with a trace of bitterness In her
tone. "I know nothing of any enemy,
but I am ready to tell you whatever
I do know."
Wainwright shook his head.
"Since you know nothing of my ene
my." he said, "it would be vain to
bother you with questions. You can
not help me." He turned and went
toward the door, but baited as his wife
called to him.
"Hut you haven't told me," she ex
claimed. "Who is your enemy?" she
asked tremulously. She sprang up and

advanced a little toward him. then
paused to look at him with fear dilated
eyes. "What is the danger that threat
ens yon?"
Yainw right spoke very softly.
"I mustn't tell you now, dearest," he
said. "Later on, 1 will."
"Now now !" she begged.
The husband, however. ierslsted in
hi3 refusal.
In the library he spoke to the wait
ing detective in a voice cautiously re-
stnine-3. but with sharpness: t
"Marshall, tbe Master Mind will
strike tonight."
In reply to tin astonished inquiries
of tbe detective he explained the man
ncr In which he had arrived at this
conclusion as to the plans of bis
enemy.
"This man. Andrew," Marshall ven
tured. "Is the Master Mind, as you be
lieve and I, too. for the matter of
that. Now. he lms jirMitir'id to leave
here tomorrow, along with his real
employers as they pretend to I e. Mr.
and Mrs. Blount, and their son. Walter
It seems likely to me that there's some
close relation here between this Master
Mind and the Blonnts. He's not the
man to 1h really a servant to folks
like that, eh? And so there's your
wife, their daughter. They all seem
to be mixed up together in this thing."
Wainwright turned away with a
brief ;ood night.
"But surely," Marshall . exclaimed,
greatly astonished, "you're not going to
bed!"
"Why not?" he questioned, with en
tire sincerity.
'But, good Lord!" Marshall ejacu:
lated. "You must take precautions.
You yourself know this man is danger
ousdeadly !".
Wainwright shrugged his shoulders.
"I can't very- well hide from the fel
low In my own house." he objected.
"I'm j;oing to arrest him at once."
was the gruff announcement.
A"ain Wainwright shook his head.
"We can do nothing whatever until
he shows his band. Good night."
Marshall was still staling at the
doorway through which the master of
the house had disappeared when be
was startled by the sudden coming of
Andrew.
"Well, what do yon want?" Marshall
demanded,

KAGKENZEN SLOWLY ADVANCES
Invaders Cress Narew and Russians

sitions Quiet Settles Down Along
the Western Front.
WAR SUMMARY
The German and Austrian farces,
whose objective is the capture of
Warsaw, and, if possible, of a large
Fart of Grand Cuke Nicholas's army,
are declared by Berlin and Vienna
to be continuing their successes
throughout the Polish region.
The Russians at all points are keep
ing up strong rear guarC actiors
against the Teutons and are harass
ing them at every step.
On the western front comparative
calm prevails in Belgium and
France, wbi!e along the Austro-ltal-
ian lines the san . kind of fighting
that has Deen in progress for weeks
continues.
I-ondon, Aug. . After having tried
for three weeks to force the Russians
to evacuate Warsaw and the Polish
salient by encircling movements from
the north and pressure from the west,
the Austro Germans have commecced
attacks on the fortresses of the cap
ital and those of Loniza and Ostro
lenka to the northeast and lvangorod
to the southeast.
Berlin claims that the Russians
have been driven Lack to the ad
vanced defenses of Lomza; that the
Narew has been crossed near Ostro-
lenka; that driven out of their Blonie
positions the Russians have fallen
hack into the outer lines of Warsaw,
which the Bavarians are attacking,
and that the Auotrians have captured
the western part of the fortress or
lvangorod.
Thus, what should prove a decisive
battle for the Folish capital has begun
in earnest.
I" the meantime Field Marshal von
Mnr-VeriTien is slowly advancing from
the southeast between the Vistula and
I the Bug in an effort to cut off the Rus
sian armies, which apparently are

and tbe western lines; wnue oenerai
von Buelow, in his wider encircling
movement through CourLind, has
reached Kupischki, on the Vilna-Petro-grad
railway.
Although the operations of Vcn
Mackenzen and Von Buelow appear
to offer the most dangerous threats
to the retiring Russian armies, the
Russian general staff is paying more
attention to Field Marshal von Ilin
denburg. 'who has been trying with
more or less success to force the Hue
of the Narew. Here the Russians are
oTering the most stubborn resistance,
and. according to an official dispatch
from Fctrograd. in two battles or
three days each succeeded in checking
the Germans and infiieting heavy loss
es on them. The Russians also admit
severe casualties.
When the dispatch was sent a third
battle was in progress. Berlin cla'ms
that in this battle the Germans have
been successful and have forced a
crossing of the Narew near, Ostro
lenka. On the whole the Russians, so far as
can be gathered from official repoits
are making an extremely orderly re

the thirty-two ?uns abandoned to the
west of lvangorod, the Germans make
ro cla-ms to the capture of heavy

Quiet has settled down u'ong the
western front, except in the Argonne
and the Vosges, where German at
tempts to recapture lost ground or
take new trenches have failed, accord

INSISTS FRYh
SINKING LEGAL
Germany Unyielding In Refusal fo
Admit Act Vioiaied Treaty.
OFFERS TO MAKE PAYMENT.
Stipulates, However, That It Sha'l Not
Be Viewed as Satisfaction For Vio
lation of American Rights Asks U
S. to Arbitrate at Hague.
v. asnington, Aug. 5. Germany is
unyielding in its refusal to concede
that the sinking of the American rail
ing ship Villiam P. Frye by the arx
iliary cruiser Prinz Eitel Friedr ch in
the south Atlantic last January v&s
a violation of American rights under
the Prussian-American treaty or in
ternational law.
In reply to the last representations
of the United States, the German fcr
e'gn office, in a note made publ:c here
by the state department, reiterates a
previous justification of Germany's
course, declares again its willingness
to pay for the ship and accepts a pro
posal first advanced by the TTnited
States that the amount of damages
be fixed by two experts, one to be se
lected by each country.
Such a sum the German government
pledges itself to ray promptly, with
the stipulation, however, that the pny.
ment shall not be viewed as a satis
faction for v'olation of American
rights. Should that method be unsat
isfactory, Germany invites the United
States to arbitration at The Ha cue.
It is practically certain that if the
United States allows the dispute to ko
to The Hague, it will insist that mean
while Germany refrarn from violation
of what the United States contends
are its rir.hts.
The entire dispute revolves abovt
article 13 of the Prussian-Amer'can
treaty. That article, the United States
contends, specifically protected the
William P. Frye from being sunk, al
though it did not protect a contraband
cargo.
Take Opposite View.
Germany takes prec!sely an oppo
site view, contending that the article
only obligated it to pay damages.
Furthermore, Germany replies that as
the Frye'8 cargo of wheat destined to
England was contraband, the ship was
liable to confiscation, and that as an
attempt to take the prize into a Ger
man port would have imperiled its
captor, the destruction of the Frye
"was according to general princ'ples
of international law."
"The right of sinking." say's the
German rote, "is rot mentioned in the
treaty, and is therefore neither x
pressly permitted nor expressly pro
hibited, so that on his point the party
stipulations must be supplemented by
the general rules of international law.
It is not disputed by tie American
government that according to the gen
eral principles of international lav
a belligerent is authorized in sinking
neutral vessels under almost any con
ditions for carrying contraband."
The note argues at length for the
German interpretation of the d'sputcd
treaty provision, contending that its
intent is to establish a resonable coin
promise between the military interest?
of the belligerents' contracting partj
and the commercial interests of the
neutral party.
"On tbe one hand," says the rote
"the belligerent party is to have tbe
right to prevent the transportation o!
war supplies to his adversaries, even
when carried on vessels of the neutra'
party; on tbe other hand, the ccra
roerce and navigation of the neutral
party is to be interfered with as little
as 7'ossible by the measures noceesarj
for such prevention and reasonable
compensation is to be paid for any
inconvenience or damage which may
nevertheless, ensue from the proceed
ings of the bell'gerent party."
That, in short, is Germany's argu
ment, based on its interpretation ot
the treaty, and to that the view of the
United States is squarely opposed.
