Ibe consulting Detective
A BTOIIY OP A VOCAL CLEW
BY SEACOAL
I Yes I am a detective
Tom Oakley leaning over the back of
n large stuffed chair In the club parlor
faced our little group with a cynical
smile playing over his lips One or two
of ub had BUBpectcd something of the
kind but all of us were astonished at
his frank admission He waited for
some comment but none of ub spoke
A consulting detective if you will
but nevertheless a detective he went
on I regret the necessity of the ad
mission not for the reason that I am
ashamed of my work but because my
usefulness is likely to be somewhat Im
paired by knowledge of It I presume
you have the prejudice against the
work that Ib common Deal with the
knowledge I have given you here In
the club as you see fit I Bhall not de
fend myself nor explain no matter how
much I may care for the loss of associ
ations However detectives are not
held in the disrepute they once were
iWhen the principle of setting a thief to
catch a thief was in application a de
tective was not the sort of person one
Invited to dinner That was the days
of Jonathan Wild and Vldocq After
all In those days It was the man him
self and not his work that was In dis
credit Now when plays are written
to glorify spies and detectives It will
hardly do to hold the latter In disre
pute However I have discovered an
especial aptitude
We all thought you were practicing
law remarked one of us
I faithfully tried to for three
years replied Tom and nearly starv
ed Clients were shy having failed to
perceive my great legal abilities Some
thing more than a year ago accident
discovered my detective abilities and
In the year following I made more of
an Income three times over than In the
three preceding years
Give us the accident Tom de
manded Harwood
You know Weltwerter the brewer
added Tom Well something more
than a year ago an employee sought me
to bring a suit for damages against
him for Injuries received at the brew
ery Weltwerter is a good fellow and
I thought more would result from an
appeal to his sympathies than from a
suit especially as I wasnt altogether
clear that contributory negligence
could not be proved against my client
The brewer was away at his country
seat at the time but I wrote him and
promptly received reply to the effect
that he would be at his city house on a
certain night not far away when If I
would call we would talk the matter
over His house was In Bedford ave
nue a double house occupying several
lots with his stable on the rear street
Arriving at the appointed time I found
iWeltwerter and his wife in great dis
tress and excitement
Their house had been robbed How
much time bad elapsed since the bur
glary they could not tell but It was
some time within two weeks since the
b ewer had visited the house two
weeks previously and there were no
signs of robbery then All of their
plate was gone which together with
other valuables mndo a substantial
loss but these things however much
value In money they represented were
nothing compared with the loss of cer
tain papers over which Weltwerter
made great moan declaring that In It
tho guiding purpose of his lifo was
Tone
Immediately on the discovery of the
robbery the brewer had sent for the
police detectives and was waiting for
them when I arrived At my sugges
tion all went over the house We found
a basement window at the back of the
house broken and tho rear door open
Evidently the thief or thieves had
made their entrance through the win
dow and had opened the door from the
Inside A spoon on tho floor near the
door an article of little value outside
of It another on the walk leading to
tho carriage house led us to follow In
that direction and on the floor of that
house found several unimportant arti
cles apparently thrown away It seemed
to me that all the booty had been trans
ported to tho stable and removed at
leisure from there because more was
taken than two men could have carried
away at once Going back to the house
all tho indications to me were that
whoever the person was he was famil
iar with the interior of the house
knew the location of the valuables and
had gone about his work with a preci
sion born of that knowledge The
awble plato and paper had
locked In a large safe In tho dining
room The snfo doors were open and
tho lock uninjured so that It was clenr
the thief know tho combination I
pointed out all three things to the
brewer Hut he was confounded lie
could fix on no person for only him
self his wife and his daughter lelln
knew the combination Ills servants
Including the coachman hnd accompa
nied hlin to his country place and had
not been nbsout a day or n night
In the course of our examination we
reached the large music room on the
other sldo of the hall and In the rear of
the parlor As the Weltwcrterfl were
nil musical It was the principal gather
ing place of tho family when at home
There wns a piano here n harp a vio
loncello In a frame a rack for violins
ami a closet In the rack In fact there
were Instruments about mifllcleut to
supply a good sized orchestra The
brewer who had been looking over
these Instruments and had attempted
to unlock the closet In the violin rack
suddenly made an outcry The lock of
this closet had been broken He Hung
open tho door excitedly to find that It
wbb empty From his outcries and the

tlons treated them with Infintto scorn
even Intimated that 1 had written tho
words on the sheet to bolster up my po
sition nnd said that they were quite
certain that Inquiry of Miss Weltwer
ter would elicit that the phonograph
record had been made In her presence
by a friendly critic perhaps her In
structor Weltwerter seemed to wnl
ble to their side perhaps because the
Idea of an rdurated musician nnd n
burglar In one ami the same person
wns too Incongruous for him to grasp
with belief but his wife Inclined to my
view 1 was nettled and the scorn
with which I was treated made n de
tective of me for convinced that the
police detectives would never II ltd the
man on the lines they adopted 1 then
and there determined to make the In
quiry myself
One of the first things I did wiih to
persuade Mrs Weltwerter to send for
her daughter Leila with whom I had a
conversation Immediately on her arriv
al One police notion wiih dissipated at
once Bhe had never submitted her
composition to the criticism of anybody
and knew of no corrections Hung to the
phonograph She was piqued over tin
words pushing rapidly between him nssertlon of error In her work and as
ski kIim 1lIalitail 11 iltiosl tlll t i m ilin record
and his wife I gathered that a valuable
violin had been stolen that It was uu j
Amatl for which he had paid a vast
Bum and that It was his own pet In
strument
While the brewer wns lamenting his
loss I observed on the plnno several
sheetB of music Though 1 know abso
lutely nothing about music I took
them up and saw that It was not print
ed but manuscript music and that on
the bottom of one sheet but partially
covered with notcB was written theBe
words
The gentleman relieving you of
some of your valuables begs to submit
that there are here grave errors of
composition Go to your grapbophone
and listen to how It ought to be
Abruptly asking the brewer if he
had a phonograph in the house he In
differently pointed to a corner where I
saw an instrument Going to It I
found one with a recording appliance
attached On the cylinder was a rec
ord Removing It I brushed off the
dust nnd replacing It set the machine
In motion when an agreeable nlr was
ground out In what I thought rather a
good baritone voice to be suddenly i
changed to spoken words these
Compare the version I have sung
Into the phone with your manuscript
and you will see that you are wrong in
your sixths and can detect your error
Weltwerter was quite evidently an
noyed by my manipulation of the pho
nograph and so when I showed him
the sheets of music he replied Impa
tiently
Yes yes It Is my daughter Leilas
work She composes music This was
done the day before we left for the
country It Is not complete
But the words written at the bottom
of the page to which I directed his at
tention awakened him to Interest In
fact he was astounded and he de
manded that I should again put the
machine In motion while he compared
the written music with It In this ho
was Joined by his wife an accomplish
ed pianist as I afterward learned
Again nnd again the record wns played
until the voice was strongly Impressed
on my memory
The brewer could not recognize the
voice but Mrs Weltwerter seemed to
find something familiar In It though
she could not fix It Into association
with any person The brewer evidently
believed that the person who had writ
ten tho words and sang to the machine
were one and the same and that ho
was a musician His Indignation that
a musician should be a thief and that
that thief should be enough of a musi
cian to detect errors in his daughters
composition and be Impudent enough
to prove It was ludicrous
While Weltwerter was mixing his
Indignation at the critic with laments
over tho theft of his Amatl by the crit
ic I was closely examining the writing
It clearly Indicated to me familiarity
with the use of the pen together with
tho spoken words of the record a habit
of grammatical expression Gaining
the attention of the brewer I said that
these things indicated that the burglar
Was a man of education a trained sing
er of a baritone voice familiar to a de
gree at least with the technical side of
music and that other Indications show
ed that he was familiar with the Inte
rior of the bouse and Its habits and
customs Said I
This Is no ordinary burglar Mr
Weltwerter The points I have made
should be clews to his detection and
Ehould ennblc you to settle on some one
or more persons to be suspected In
fact said I under sudden Inspiration
I should not be surprised If at the end
you would find that the man coveted
your Amatl and that he entered tho
house for the purpose of securing that
In the first place
Mrs Weltwerter was Impressed and
asked if I were a detective Beforo I
could reply her husband broke In with
the explanation that I was a lawyer
and It seemed to me In a tone Implying
that therefore there was no reason for
giving consequence to my words Be
fore I could sustain myself by argu
ment the police detectives summoned
by Mr Weltwerter made their appear
ance After learning all the brewer
could tell them they went about an ex
amination of the premises after their
methods and concluded that tho bur
glary was tho work of professionals
though they differed among them
selves as to what professionals they
were I took issue with them and air
ed the theories I had advanced to Mr
Weltwerter I showed them the writ
ing on the music eheet and ground out
the tune for them and wound up with
suggesting that this man avowing
himself to be the one who had taken
the valuables possessed accomplish
ments not usually the acquirements of
the professional burglar
These astute men resented my no-
she listened attentively to
holding her written music In compari
son I watched her narrowly Almost
Immediately a dull red Hush crept over
her face but whether It was due to a
recognition of the voice or to n convic
tion that sho hnd been detected In error
I could not determine but when the
sudden chnnge to the spoken words
todk place a sort of startled light
sprang Into her eyes She hesitated In
reply to my question If she recognized
the voice finally saying that she did
not that at llrst It seemed familiar but
the Impression faded as she listened 1
was not satisfied It seemed to me as
though the young womnn could hnve
said more If she were Inclined that
she hnd something of suspicion 1
pressed this view upon her but sho cs
caped conclusions by asserting that a
tone or two of the recorded voice hnd
Buggested a person but only n tone or
two that It was simply absurd to asso
ciate tho person with the deed of bur
glary
Fortunately for me I had plenty
of time to make Inquiries but notwith
standing that 1 devoted all my time to
the work I made no headway Firmly
convinced that the burglar was a pro
fessional musician I worked on that
line attending all plnces where I could
hear baritone singers I tried to make
the acquaintance of all musicians who
had been In the hnhlt of gathering at
the Weltwerter house but It was sum
mer time and I could reach but a few
One dny at the end of three weeks
of this discouraging work I was sit
ting In my otllce quite despondent
when I was called up on the telephone
by my sister We had been conversing
but a moment when some one cut In on
us on a crossed line I was about to
demand of the central otllce to protect
us In our possession of the line when I
was startled by another voice the one
of the record on the Weltwerter phono
graph the one I had been looking for
dreaming of for three weeks and I lis
tened breathlessly The subject of the
talk of the two who had cut In wns the
orchestration of some musical score at
a theater for which the voice was at
work It ended with a remark of the
voice that the other could communi
cate at any time with him by telephone
and giving his telephone number
I closed my talk with my sister as
quickly as I decently could and hasten
ed to the central oflice Learning the
name of the subscriber who had the
number the voice had given I was
surprised to find it was that of a drug
gist on tho hill This did not bear out
my theory but I traveled to the store
to find It one of the superior sort It
required the exercise of no little skill
to discover who had talked through the
telephone an hour previously on a mu
sical subject but It came out In the
end and I wns told that It was a pro
fessional musician known ns Elmer
Molesworth occupying apartments on
a floor above the store
Inquiries In the neighborhood show
ed that the musician was held In es
teem as nn Industrious upright man I
learned however that more than once
he had been one of a stringed quartet
at musical gatherings nt Weltwerters
Armed with this fact I sought Miss
Weltwerter and forced her to the ad
mission that she had recognized Moles
worths voice In that of the record but
was not willing to believe It From
her also I learned a valuable fact She
had as a precious relic a sheet or two
of original manuscript by Mozart
which she kept In the safe in the din
ing room
On the occasion of a musical at
their house once she had talked to
Molesworth of this nnd taking the mu
sician to the safe had opened It before
him to show It I Baw now how Moles
worth had obtaiued the combination
and knowledge of the contents of the
safe By a Ilttle strategy In a few days
I obtained a note from Molesworth so
that I was enabled to make a compari
son with tho writing on tho music
sheet and to see a marked resemblance
It now seemed ripe for an arrest
but here Weltwerter stepped In He
feared If arrest were made hlB paper
would bo lost and he preferred the re
covery beforo everything said he
would sacrifice everything for them
his plate valuables and even his loved
Amatl He begged mo to undertake
their recovery So I began my detect
ive career by compounding a felony I
visited Molesworth In his apartments
nnd bluntly charged him with the bur
glary He was cool and Belf possessed
He denied my charge Indignantly but
I told him the story of his deed and the
methods of Its accomplishment step by
step and how I had been led to fix up
on hlra All this time my eyes had
been busy about the room Ab I as
cended the etatrs I had heard the
sound of a violin but I aaw none Be
side his desk was a shawl on the floor
nnd something teemed to bo under it
Suddenly I sprang tip aud lifted that
linwl Under It wns a violin Moles
worth turned pjle and 1 lifting the In
strument nnd pointing to a mark on It
snld dramatically It was the tomptn
Hon to possess this Amatl that led you
Into the crime He wilted at once I
followed tip my advantage by promis
ing him on behalf of Weltwerter Im
munity silence and safety If he would
return what he had taken nnd he
broke down nnd confessed
That afternoon I returned the prlr
ed papers and the Amatl to the brewer
Tiie plate had been disposed of or de
stroyed and Weltwerter highly pleas
ed over his recoveries let It go lie
gave me a handsome Tee
This started me on my career for
Weltwerter with an exaggerated Iden
of my abilities called me to ferret out
a leak tu the funds of a bank of which
lie was a director aud In which 1 was
successful This led to similar em
ployments until now 1 am a full fledg
