A RACE WITH RUIN. By HEADON HILL, Author of "Guilty Gold," "The Queen of Night," By a Hair's Breadth," "The Peril of the Prince," &P, &c. SYNOPSIS OF PREVIOUS CHAPTERS. ] Leopold Tannadyce in a money-lender and financial shark, who holds heavy mortgages on the estate of Sir Charles Roylance. which he is about to foreclose, for he covets Boy- lance Abbey, hoping to acquire social status by becoming its owner. Roylance has a horse, Starlight, with which he hopes to win. the Century Stakes, and, by raeans of long price betting, gain sufficient money to pay off the mortgages. Tannadyce has a jackal in a broken-down peer, named Hooligan, whom he has ruined, and whom he now uses, in connection with a betting agency, to tip Starlight, and thus reduce the odds preventing the coup Roylance seeks to bring off. The betting agency. "Parker's Lightning Finals, is run by a ruined gentleman named Beau- champ, assisted by his daughter. Nance, who discovers Tannadyce's designs and seeks to save Roylance, who, in better days, was ber sweetheart. Hooligan is suspected of the murder of a woman found dead on Epsom Downs. She is the sister of a "bookie" named Tidmarsh, was once a music-hall star, and was inveigled into a sham marriage by Hooligan. Tidmarsh. who is unaware of the identity of hiB sister's betrayer and mur- derer, has sworn to hunt him to the death. Nance has, unfortunately, attracted the un- pleasant attentions of both Hooligan and Tannadyce. CHAPTER XXV.—Continued. Box Number Ten. "There's some horses in the building that have made history, and some that are going to make it." he said proudly, as he passed into the cool, well-ventilated interior, "neat but not gaudy," with its panelling of white Doulton tiles, all spotlessly clean. One or two of the grand creatures whinnied in friendly greeting to their schoolmaster, as he translated the numbers into names for the benefit of his companion. "Number lD-Sèarlight-owned by Sir Charles Roylance," he announced, coming to the loose box furthest from the door and stealing at the same time an inquiring glance at the new man's face. But the face was quite expressionless. Bolton merely clawed at his cap-peak again, staring stolidly at the splendid chestnut with the white star, and Mr. Barron brought the exhibition to a close with a shrug of mingled disappointment and satisfaction. "The chap isn't interested in the betting market, anyhow," he thought, "and he's none the worse for that. Funny, though, that a horse that's made such a stir didn't move him." The trainer escorted the applicant to the gates, bade him good-day, and returned to his chair on the verandah. He had not been there a minute when the maid came out of the house and approached him timidly. "What is it. Lizzie, my girl?" he asked in some surprise, for though he had only been in his service a week, he had noticed that shy- nees was not her strong point. "That young man, sir, who's just gone," she began. "I'm afraid he's a precious bad one. He was giving you his name just as I 'stepped I out with the telegram, and he gave you a false one." "What!" roared the trainer. "You know him?" "Yes, sir; he was in the mews at the back, of where I lived in my last situation, and his name was Alf Skinner then." Miss Lizzie re- plied with a toss of her head. The fact was that she had set her cap at the smart young groom without eliciting any response and was not sorry for an opportunity of getting square 1 on him.. He told me had be collar til weeks," said Mr. Barron, I "He was in his situation ten days ago, sir, for I saw him with his livery on, driving his private hansom into the mews," the maid re- plied. Thanking the girl for her information, Mr. J Barron registered a mental vow to send the man of two names about his business if he came back on the morrow. But Mr. Alfred Skinner did not come back, and the trainer had to comfort himself with the reflection that the bogus applicant had not come into contact with any of his underlings or been left alone for the fraction of a second while within the sacred precincts of the stable yard. But we, who have had the privilege of seeing Skinner receive his instructions from Mr. Leopold Tannadyce. are aware that there waa something brewing undreamed of in the philosophy of his astutest of trainers. His mind was running on information extracted from venial "lads" about the weights in the last trial—possibly on a pinch of poison introduced into a bucket of water. Whereas the trick had been done the moment Mr. Tom Barron himself translated the blue enamelled figure 10 over a certain loose box into the eimple words: "Starlight, owned by Sir Charles Roy- lance." CHAPTER XXVI. I Flown or Ensnared ? I As a result of his meeting with the Rev, Mr. Quintree, and of his discovery that there had been a mysterious partner in "Parker's Lightning Finals," Mr. Inspector Croal was of opinion that he had whittled the inquiry into Bessie Beckford's death down to a very sharp point indeed. He was convinced that the mysterious partner was the man he "wanted," and at present he had only two ways of finding him —one through the handwriting in the addrees-book, and the other by questioning Mr. Beauchamp. The grave view he took of Nance's complicity with the unknown part- ner precluded him from seeking information from the girl herself For some days after the assault Mr. Croal looked In at the hospital morning, noon, and night, in the hope that the injured man might have recovered consciousness; but he was always met with the eame story-Mr. Beauchamp still lay in a comatose condition. This was doubly galling, because the inspec- tor nourished a growing belief in his theory. He had caused a watch to be set on the office in Red Lion Court, and he had learned from his "shadows" that no one had been near it. This seemed to point to the guilt of "the coarse creature" mentioned by Mr. Quintree-at any rate, of the assault on! Mr. Beauchamp. Otherwise he would surely have been attending to the business as usual. Mr. Croal was not aware that he himself had frightened "the coarse creature" first through the skylight oa fo the roof, and finally away from the office altogether, some days before the outrage on the blind pro- prietor. The inspector also took steps, personally or by deputy, to ascertain daily that Nance was still at her lodgings in Islington, though, needless to say, the occupants of Beaker- street were ignorant of the attention paid them. Croal had not deemed it necessary to keep a. constant watch on the house, but he got to know the times of Xa.nce's visits to the hospital, and there was generally a. subordinate in plain clothes to see her start on those occasions. On the morning of the Saturday before the decision of the New Qentury Handicap, which was also the morning after Nance's summons to her father's bedside, Mr. Croal was not in the best of humours. He had paid his cutomary call at the hospital. and had met with the customary answer that Mr. Beauchamp was still insensible. His narrow- ing of the inquiry 1 lad so far borne no fruit, and he was waxing impatient. He was busily engaged at New Scotland Yard. looking over the handwriting of con- victed criminals in the hope that he might stumble on a clue, when the detective who had been on duty in Beaker-street came in hurriedly. "She didn't leave the house for the hos- pital this morning, eir." he reported. "I waited half an hour past her usual time. too." "Well." snapped Mr Croal, "you didn't let it rest there. I suppose?" "No. sir; I invented an excuse for going to the door-niade out I'd got a message for Miss Beauchamp from a milliner-but the landlady- was very short with me. Shut the door in my face, and said the young lady was out," replied the man. "Get back there and keep observation on the house then." said Croal shortly. ,.It.. more than likely I'll be long myself pre- sently." The subordinate having departed, the inspector glanced at the clock and saw that it was half-past eleven. Among other crumbs of information connected with the case, he had picked up the fact that Sir Charles Roy- lance was in the habit of coming up from Barfieid-on-Thames to lunch at his club, the Junior Carlton, arriving about that hour. Then and there he decided to go and have a plain issue with the young baronet about Miss Beauchamp, and see if he could throw any light on the identity of the mysterious partner. Sir Charles drove up to the club just as the inspector was making inquiry for him of the ball porter, and at once invited him into one of the waiting-rooms. You are coming to gloat over me, I suppose, Croal. because you were right about Miss Beauchamp and the tipping office," said Sir Charles, who appeared to be in the highest spirits "There's no secret between her and me about it any longer, so you're a day too late.' "It isn't my business to gloat," answered the inspector drily "I came to ask you a few questions, if you don't mind. Are you aware that there was a partner in the no- called 'Parker's' office?' "Yes; when we discussed the matter the. night before last. Miss Beauchamp informed me that there was each a person—intro- duced, we think, by a gentleman whose interest it was to influence the betting mar- ket adversely to myself." Mr. Leopold Tannadyce, I presume?" Roylance laughted heartily. 11 Really, inspector, but you've been very busy with my affairs, though I can't for the life 01 me see how they affect that case of yours," he replied. "Yes, I have no proof, but I ill (J Jifl fc'ay -most -cer&a*»li: that Tr,nnariyoe was the wirepuller who was behind the partner. "Can you give me the man's name?" asked Croal eagerly. ".No, because I don't know it. Miss Bean- champ didn't mention it, all her concern at the moment being to explain certain action she had taken to thwart the fellow's machi- nations." My. Cro-al was both puzzled aad dinp- pointed. There had evidently been a clearing of the atmosphere between the baronet and Miss Beauchamp as regards her interference in hie racing affairs, but it was strange tha.t it should include no reference to the weightier matter of the murder on the Downs. Oould it be that the girl, driven to bay by the ex- posure of her calling, had hoodwinked Sir Charles with only half a story? "Sir Charles Roylance," said the detective very gravely. "I am going to take you into my confidence to a certain extent. I have reason to believe that the unknown partner in 'Parker's' was the murderer of the poor woman at Epsom; and I further believe that Miss Beauchamp was mixed up in it." A quick flush mounted to the baronet's faoe at the imputation on the girl to whom he had plighted his troth, and for a moment it seemed that he was going to commit the egregious folly of striking a police-officer. But with a supreme effort he held himself in check, and haughtily demanded the inspec- tor's reasons for arriving at such a prepos- terous conclusion. Croal responded by lucidly and inexorably giving a resume of his investigations, dwell- ing on Nance's presence in the gorse-busbee, on the agreement between the descriptions he had obtained of the mysterious partner and of the brutal associate of Bessie Beckford at the Angler's Rest-above all. on Nance's con- cealment of her connection with the suspected person. Sir Charles heard him to the end. but with growing impatienoe. "My good man," he ex- claimed at last, "you have been so steeped in the ways of sordid criminals that yon are unable to appreciate the feelings of a deli- cately bred lady suddenly confronted, as she was that Sunday, with exposure as a tipster —a trade which sbe loathed, but bravely pur- sued at the instance of her silly old father. She was silent about this ruffian whom you suspect, because a very intelligible but un- necessary shame kept her silent about the miserable business in which she was engaged." "What about her association with Tanna- dyce, your avowed enemy?" asked Croal, rather shaken by this vigorous championship. "We have had all that out together, and I can assure you that she has been as gtaque-k and true a friend to me as a man could wish to have," Sir Charles replied warmly. "If my horse is first past the post next, Wednes- day the sum which I shall win, and which will save me from utter ruin, will be entirely due to Miss Beauchamp's devoted plnc-k in defeating as mean a plot as wa-s ever hatched. And you may as well note that in any further references you may make to this young lady you are referring to my affianced wife." The inspector pondered over this convulsion of human nature, with a single eye to the solution of his case. "I'll tell you wha.t. Sir Charles," he said at length: "it's my duty to go and question Miss Beauchamp. but if you care to come along I'll do it in your presence. I can't say fairer than that." Nor could he, he was well aware, bit on a better plan for gaining the information he &ought, for Nance would most certainly be more communicative in the presence of her lover than alone with a police-officer. Whether she would tell the truth was another matter, Croal cynically reflected, but he relied on his' own acumen to sift the chaff from the grain if he could only get her to talk. Sir Charles eagerly agreed, far too simple- minded and straightforward himself to dis- cern anything but friendly good-nature in the detective's proposal. Besides, the plan struck him as the most effective way of scotching once for all the absurd theory that [ Nance was in any way implicated. l (To be OontiasecW
