IAIO THE WOMAN OF MYSTERY.…
PUBLISHED BY SPECIAL ARRANGEMENT. IAIO THE WOMAN OF MYSTERY. f By GEORGE OHNET, Author of "The Ironmaster," "Serge Panine," &c. [COPYRIGHT.] PART 1. SYNOPSIS.—The French Minister of War receives in audience Colonel Vallenot, who explains to him in detail the result of his examination of the wrecked house of General de Tremont. Tremont had Hit recently dis- covered a new explosive, tfle possession of which would give absolute supremacy to any country. Under mysterious circum- stances his house at Yanves had been blown up. The General, it was found, had been stabbed to death before the explosion. On the evening of the disaster, he had enter- tained two unknown persora—a man called Hans, and a woman known as Baroneas." The woman is suspected of being a foreign spy, who had won Tremont's affection for the purpose of obtaining possession of the secret of the new explosive. The woman was known to have left before the explosion; the man not uutil afterwards, one of his arm* having been found in the ruins. Tremont is related to the great banking firm of Baradier and Graff, and the story proceeds to connect the members of that firm with its sensational and tragic inci- dents. There is alsp brought into the story one Lichtenbach (son or a Jew, who made huee sums during the Franco-German War), a powerful financier, who, having ome time been a suitor for Graff's sister, now Madame Baradier. is shown to be animated with the most deadly animoeity towards the members of that firm. In an interview with the Minister of War, Baradier expresses the sus- picion that Lichtenbach is at the bottom of the mystery. He aleo mentions that his son Marcel poaaeeses the formulae for Tre- mont's marvellous explosives. Bara.dier learns through Marcel that the man known as Hans was regarded by Tremont as a savant and a foreign Nihilist. "Was he a Russian? queries Baradier. "1 do not know; his name was Hans," answers Marcel. "Hans!" exclaimed Baradier. "That was the name of the man whose arm was torn off! It is the name on t—e ring worn by the man who caused the explosion of the house at Vanves. This is the first flash of light." Marcel retires to one of the works owned by his father's firm at Are. and there pursues his investigations. I-. is suggested that he is in peril from the machinations of the "woman of mystery" who had failed to secure her ends in the case of General Tre- mont. Baudoin, the late general's valet, persuades the authorities to suspend for a time their investigation of the crime, and constitutes himself personal bodyguard of young Marcel. The story began in the "Evening Express" for May 3.

CHAPTER IX. (Continued.) "There is every appearance of it. Cardez has not sufficient taot; he is too straight-for- ward in his talk. A fine man, in reality, but on > who appears to act too tyrannically." "I will attend to the matter myself. To-mor- row, I will see the syndicate. And you? What are you doing? Has your work been pro- gressing?" "Considerably. I have discovered the pale green and the golden yellow I have been look- ing for. You shall see my samples. j "And the other affair?" Lowering his voice, he asked in anxious tones: "The powders?" "The formulas have been -tested, and- their success is assured." "Have you made any experiments?" "Yes, Uncle Graff, and they have been ter- rible in their aimplicity. I set off, carrying: a small piece of the commerce-explosive in the I direction of Bossicant; I placed it all round the roots of a huge oak. After igniting it, the immense tree, without noise or smoke, lay there level with the ground, lying in the heather. as though cut down by a giant scythe." "No one saw you?" "No one. The following morning, the game- keeper said: 'Ah! M. Marcel, what a loss we have had. The old oak of the flat Mare was struck to the ground last night by the storm. It is strange how those old trees go, but the wind is a famous woodl-cutter!' In fact. it would be impossible to form any idea of the destructive force of this powder. I wished to test it cnce more. and this time in the breaking up of a rock. Going to the old stone quarry on the Sainte Savine-road, I placed a squib in an ex- cavation. There were three hundred yards of earth and sandstone to explode. Whe-n night came, I set fire to it, and withdrew. There would be no one passing in the neighbour- hood till morning came; accordingly, I feared no accident. The detonation was extremely feeble, and I was only half a mile away. In fact, I scarcely heard it. The following morn- ing I returned to judge the result. It was terrible! The whole cube had beeen lifted, and a hole six yards deep had been dug out in the shape of a funnel. With a sufficient charge, I would wager that a mountain couid be blown into the air! See here. Uncle Graff, if the Spaniards took it into their heads to deetroy Gibraltar, they would succeed with this powder. What a fine sight it would be; tl at huge mass, rocks, parapets, casemates, cannons, and all the rest, thundering down into the sea!" "Have you drawn UP your formulae?" "No. not yet." "Well.' Draw them up, and give them to me. I will take them away with me to Paris, and deposit them at the Patent* Office. The time is come to make use of them." "You shall have them to-morrow morning, Uncle Graff; it is a mere trifle." "You see, your father and myself have for some time been putting into execution a plan the consequences of which are far-reaching. Baradier, who has a. fine intuition, for busi- ness, has found out Lichtenbach's plana. The old rascal caused to be sold at a loss several shares in the explosives, and brought the stock down to nothing. We were wondering why the depreciation kept getting greater and greater, when chance afforded us the proof that it was Lichtenbach who was plot- ting to rain the company, so as to reconsti- tute it to his profit. He had seven or eight stockbrokers under his orders? One of them, however, committed an indiscretion, which placed us immediately in possession of the secret. Then your father, equal to the occasion, did not hesitate, but bought up all Lichtenbach was selling, and after the fall had reached the limit, the rise began. At this moment, we hold two hundred thousand shares in the explosives, bought at a very low price, and which to-morrow, in case the patent of the new powder is acquired by the company, will rise above par. It is a formi- dable party stroke. If we succeed, the fortune of the family is increased tenfold;. We shall have directed against Lichtenbach the attack he wished to inflict on the explosives share- holders. He v lose what we gain, and this time I think we shall have finished jrith him." "Very well! Uncle Graff, you shall have the formulae to-morrow, and you may do what you please with them." "It will be a fortune for Mile, de Tremont, and ours into the bargain." "Ah! Are you not -rich enough?" "Yes. But your father is ambitious. He wants the maximum in everything, and affirms that there is no reason why French fortunes should not be as great as those of the Americans." "Ah! The Vanderbilts and the Astors! What a weakness to think of such things!" "My young friend, you cannot understand this intoxication of success which takes posses- sion of the calmest and most level-headed of men. You know well enough that your father is very simple in his tastes, and spends less money than you do But it is no longer a. matter of pleasure; it is a. question of aritl-metic. "Yes, I know. But it is precisely there that the harm lies. It would be far better if he were not so rich, amd spent more money. What weapons you place in the hand. of these Socialists, who are, at this very moment, I causing us so much trouble! How can you justify in their eyes such a piling-up of I capital at the disposal of ono individual whilst the generality of men toils and suffers from all kinds of privations? You see. Uncle Graff, the sole excuse of wealthy men is that they spend a great deal, so as to throw their superabundant, riches into general circulation. It would give me pleasure to see my father fling money out of the window, since he has so much. Those h the street would pick it up, and their momentary wretchedness would be relieved, at any rate. I should be glad if he would order statues of sculptors, and pictures of artists, and set rolling all the wealth now j being piled up in his safes. How can youj expect me to be interested in the shares of EUe-h and such a company? What does this paper represent in my eyes, if not the labour of a whole crowd of workmen, who toil and sweat to produce dividends which will enrick the shareholders? Uncle Graff, a!l this is neither moral nor just. nor even human! And I believe that a. prodigal son like myself is the just ransom, from a. social point of view, of a treasare-hoarder like my father!" "But, oorwider, my little Marcel, your father's work enriches, and his wealth streng- thens the country. It is the resources of the rich whicll. keep up the vigour of a nation in time of national peril. Your father is a citizen useful by reason of his wealth, just as an inventor is by his genius, or a gertaral by his talent for war. It is your father who will give the inventor funds to perfect his invention, and who will pay for the improved cannons and guns of the soldier. Every man has hie function in life, as in society. And, I can assure you, ycur father is not one of the most despic- able "Uncle Graff, I speak sentiment to you, and you reply with political economy. It is im- possible fcr us to come to an agreement. We are both right, only we are not speaking of th > same thing." "Neither are we of the same generation. Ideas change several times in a single cen- tury, and one generation doee not reason like the following. Your father and I hare seen the wair of 4¡Ø7Q, invasion and rain on every side, and we remember what a. ransom we had to pay. That has made us parsimonious for the rest of our days. You came into the world only when prosperity had returned; you have been brought trp under the breach of Republican ideas. Your thoughts are quite different from ours; you are an advocate for equality. We are nothing of the kind. My father inspired in me respect for caste. I have less consideration for a. tradesman than for a. mill-proprietor, more respect for a lawyer, a magistrate, or a notary than for a painter or a man of letters. It is my nature. I cannot change, if I would. I am weJl aware that ideas are changing all around me, but I shall die impenitent. Your gene- ration has no bump of veneration as ours had. You consider yourself on the same footing as an elderly man, famous and re- spected, and you treat him on the most I familiar terms. That is something which would be impossible for me, any more than I should expect the foreman at the works to look upon me as his equal, and pat me fami- liarly on the &homlder. Possibly you and your companions may be right, but I don't think so. At any rate, we shall see what your children will be like. if you have any, for even family life is another institution qute out of fashion now." "Well, uncle, you have a very effective way of discussing, without giving yourself any pretensions! Father would long ago have called me a fool, without offering the slightest aa-gnment. With you, it is different, and when I listen to you I am by no means sure that I am right. Besides, you are so kind and tolerant, Uncle Graff, that I do not feel myself capable of resisting you for any length of time!" "Ah! you little rogue! Now you are flat- tering me: you know how to,imake me do as you wish. At bottom you as-e a sly fox, and I believe you trick the lot of us* "Oh! Uncle Graff!" "Come now, you are not so nice as that for n< thing," said the old bachelor with a laugh. "Vv hat is it you want me to do for you now?- "Nofthing. upon my word, uncle; I am per- fectly sincere in everything I have just said!" "Then you are oonducting yourself very well, just now." Maroel raised hie eyes, and said calmly; "How could I do anything else here?" "Ah! Do you think you oould not find all opportunity if you wanted? I really believue that if you were thrown on to a. desert island. you would find means to fall in love and get into debt, even there! "But who would pay them, if my Uncle Graff were not at hand?" "You are jesting with me, you rascal!" "N", I am quite serious; I never leave my laboratory, except for a walk in the woods; and I have not spent twenty-five francs since I came here." A violent clamour, coming from the direc- tion of the town, cut short the conversation. A light shone in the sky. Songs, a.t the same time as a dull tramp of a marching band, were heard on the road. And the workmen's "Marseillaise," shouted out by hundreds of voices, again broke the silence. On leaving the inn, the workmen, accompanied by their wives, were marching through the sleeping town, hurling out against the startled citizens threats of revolt and violence. Marcel and his Uncle Graff, halting there in the garden. iHftemed. and watched the shouting mob as it passed by, waving in the air torches made of pine branches. It was the smoke and flame holering above a crowd which was hurl- ing imprecations against the masters. Uncle Graff pointed to the street, and said: "You hear what these people are say- ing. 'All the masters shall be strung up!' And yet there is not one of them. who, were he ill or infirm, would not have the right to rely on us to mitigate his suffering. We have given them workmen's dwellings where they are lodged, schools where their children are educated, hospitals where they are treated with every attention when iLl. and co-operative societies, where they may buy everything at cheap rates. There is only the publio-houee we have been unwil. ling to give them, and it is there they go. to become filled with sentiments of hatred ag>ainst us! It is alcohol, which is their master, and he is a pitiless tyrant, who will give them no mercy!" The end of the column had just passed. Whether it was that they had seen the two men in the garden. or they simply washed to fling to the winds their ones of rebellion and rancour, these latter, the most intoxicated and miserable of them all, screamed forth in a okrill chorus: "Down with the masters! Down with exploiters!" Th-en silence was restored by degrees. Uncle Graff sadly shook his hmk, and sadd: (To be continued to-morrow.)
