A RACE WITH RUIN,
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," &c., &c. CHAPTER XVII.-Contin-ued. I Moses Cohen's Curse I The words were scarcely spoken when Moses Cohen came shuffling along the passage from the kitchen and, making weird animal noises, ran out of the area door and up the steps to the pavement. Thinking he was ill. the Bremners followed, while Tidmarsh stood at the open door. A smart private hansom had drawn to the kerb, and close to it Mr. Leopold Tannadyoe was taking leave of Nance Bea-uchamp. She had already inserted her latchkey in the door, when the aged broker's man came mouthing up the a.rea steps and planted himeelf in front of the tall, frock-ooated, shiny-hatted moneylender. "Pretty Miss! Pretty Miss! Do you know who this fine gentleman is with the fine clothes and the private cab and the fat cheque-book?" he croaked, turning to Nance. It is sad to find one so tender-hearted in company of this cruel son of mine, whom I begat to be a thorn in my side, to rob me, and to turn me into the streete in the day of my infirmity. May heaven set its mark against you and doom you to everlasting torment, Levi Cohen." At that moment an involuntary exclamation escaped Nance, who had listened to the old maa's diatribe with consternation. But now a new emotion seized her as her eyes travelled past the groujjnwi the pavement to the vehicle that had brought her. On enter- ing she had paid no attention to it, but the full glare of a street lamp falling on the groom's livery and on the silver harness called up a pregnant reminiscence. "The ca.b!" she cried, pointing a shaking finger and all ignorant that she spoke aloud. "Oh, what have I done? That is the cab that was by the grand stand on the morning of Starlight's trial." At which Mr. Tidmarsh began to mount the area eteps, but before he reached the top Nance had opened the front door and let her- self in. Tannadyce did not deign to reply to the tirade of the old man who claimed to be his father, but sprang with an impassive face into the cab, giving the curt order, "Home, Skinner," to the driver. The group on the pavement looked in silence after the retreating vehicle till it turned the corner into Upper-street. Then Tidmarsh broke the spell by laying a hand on Moses Cohen's shoulders. "So that is your son," he said. I know a lot of West Enders by sight, and he looks un- commonly like Loo Tannadyce, the nobs moneylender. Is that w-)?" "To my shame, yes," the old man replied, and he crept down the steps again and back into the house. "Well, good-night, MTS. Bremner. Good- night, Frank. The Starligut tenner holds good, mind." said the bookmaker abruptly, and he walked rapidly away towards his own house higher up the street, leaving the Bfrem- ners overcome by the events of the last few minutes. "To think that Miss Beauchamp should come home with a man like that," Mrs. Bremner exclaimed, when they got back to their room. "And did you notice her clothes, Frank?—not those she went out in this morning, and hardly respectable. That poor old creature's son, too." Bremner could only vent a brimming mix- ture of surmise and conjecture in the trite remark that "it was a rum go." He was no less concerned about their generous young benefactor's association with the notorious Tannadyce, but he was deeply moved by matters that had no meaning for his wife. Nance's strange utterance about the cab, as well as its instant effect on Tidmarsh, had been grasped at once by the keen-witted law- yer's clerk, while Skinner's supposed amatory excursion into the wilds of Beaker-street assumed a new and graver significance. The murder of Tidmarsh's sister on Epsom Downs was lurking somewhere in the back- ground of the events of the evening-of that he was certain. His training from boyhood in an office like Nathan's the solicitors, con- vinced him of it; but he was fairly bewildered by the plunging of his own modest household into the heart of such a tangled mystery. He was conscious, too, of the necessity of acting warily, since one who might turn out to be a principal player in the drama was a client of his firm. "I'm going to smoke a pipe with Moses in the kitchen," he said. Perhaps the old boy will be communicative about that son of his." He sat up eo late with the man in posses- sion that when he returned to the sitting- room his wife was on the point of going to bed. On the table stood a large dress box, to which she drew his attention. "We are to get Tannadyce's address from a directory, or from Mr. Cohen, and send that off to him first thing in the morning. Miss Beaucha.mp met with an accident on the river, and had to borrow some clothes, which explain* everything," said good Mary Brem- ner, with confidence. "un, does it?" murmured Bremner feebly. "And she particularly wants to see Cohen before he goes in the morning. The dear girl is so glad that we kept him here to-night." "Ah. I can understand that," responded Bremner more briskly. CHAPTER XVIII. I A Whipped Cur I An observance of the Sabbath was not among Lord Hooligan's characteristics. An hour after Tannadyce's departure from Isling- ton his lordship was entertaining a few friends at his rooms, and neither host nor guests were particularly sober. The latter consisted of one JTarkham a dis- sipated sporting hanger-on, and two ex- pugilists, known respectively as Ted the Pounder and Birmingham Jem, who had ended their public careers as exponents of the "noble art" through a too staunch devo- tion to the wine-cup, and now earned a pre- carious living as "miaderr," to bookmakers on the more rowdy racecourses. Not one of the three would have picked Hooligan out of the gutter, except perhaps to go through his pockets; but the curious fascination which the title, however ignobly worn, has for some people attracted them to him, and they would have indignantly resented any denial that they were his friends. Just now a.n additional incentive to intimacy with his lordship was the caeh which be was drawing from Tajinadyoe to bolster up the tipping office, and which enabled him to put up drinks with unwonted freedom. This was the kind of society that Hooligan was really at home in. Just as we introduced tnem the conversation of these choice spirits received a check by the loud ringing of the boose-bell. A moment later Tannadyoe stood in the itoorw&y of the room, surveying the flushed taoec Gl Um oacupaats, the paraphernalia of r drink, and, above all. the giver of the synt* posium with cold contempt. "I want a word with you. Hooligan," he said, in an incisive tone that his satellite knew too well. It was a danger signal--& sign that the lion was in ill-humour, and had a rod in pickle for his jackal. But the latter, though quite understanding what was re* quired of him, had had just enough drink to make him rebellious. "Speak out, then." he blustered ooarsely. "And don't stand staring there like a cow. Come in and sit down and help yourself to Hennessy or Johnny Walker. Let me itttro" duce-" Tannadyce out him short with an imperious gesture. "Will you kindly ask these persons to retire?" he said in the same acid voice. "My business with you is both urgent and private, and so long as I pay you for your services, I intend to have them." The demand was followed by intense silence in the room, broken only by the heavy breath- in r of the two ex-pugilists, who kept their eyes on their friend, as though awaiting orders. The. principals in the worldly oom- bat scanned each other, the one with sullen scowls, the other with the quiet magnetism that controls. But Hooligan was too far gone to feel the influence that had so often brought him to heel, and a hysterical giggle from the semi-drunken scribbler ronsed him to fury. "I'll see you hanged before you order me about, he roared. "Here, Pounder, and you Jem, chuck that chap into the street. I've stood enough of his imptldence-me a peer. too-and I won't have it any longer. filing him out, confound you." The two ruffians lurched heavily up to obey the order if the intended victim gave them the chance, for they fully expected him to turn tail and bolt for safety. What, then, was their surprise when he met their on- slaught with a hand rapidly extended after plunge into his breast pocket, causing them to fall back a pace, thinking that he had produced a pistol. Tannadyce smiled serenely and fluttered two bank-notes in their shrinking faces. I aiu sorry to disconcert your prowess, gentlemen; but the weapons which I hold are nothing more dangerous than a couple of Ave- pound notes," he said. "I have every confi- dence in their efficacy, however. Will you do me the favour to accept one each, and ia. return render me a slight service." The Pounder and Birmingham Jem exchanged glances, and remarked simnltap neously that they would do a good maqjr things for a couple of flimsies. Then." Tannadyce coolly proceeded, "take that thing away from Lord Hooligan before he hurts himself, and tie him down to one of the chains so that I can have a little quiet conversation with him." For at the first sign of the defection of hie pals Hooligan had seized a cutlass that hung on the wall, mad with rage. In a twinkling the ex-pugilists had grabbed the rusty orna- ment and pinioned his lordship's arms; a minute later they had him securely trussed up in a large armchair, using the curtain girdles as ropes. Shall we gag him, Mister? He might holler for the police," panted Jem, of Bir- mingham. No, he won't do that. The police are the last people he wants to see," sneered Tannar dyce. Now you three clear out and wait outside in the street. I won't keep you long, and when I come out you shall have your compensation for, I fear, losing your noble friend. The trio of scamps obediently vanished, Tan- nadyce faced his parasite-reduced now to blubbering impotence. What I wished to speak to you about was the business of Parker's Lightning Finals,' he began as though nothing had happened. You are aware, of course, that Starlight has receded in the betting during the last week, so that the purpose for which I acquired an interest in the tipping office has probably been defeated." I saw that the colt had been knocked out to 10 to 1." Hooligan admitted, sullenly. Can you account for it in any way?" Not me." You have been at Red Lion Court every day, and kept a strict watch to see tha-t only favourable advices about Roylance's colt were sent out?" Certainly I have." replied Hooligan, but with a trafte of uneasiness now. Bah! Why do I waste time in proving you an unmitigated liar?" Tannadyoe flashed upon him contemptuously. "How do you account for that?" And he held before his scowling captive the circular of Nance's con- coction which he had detached from her an. conscious clutch on the launch. Lord Hooligan turned purple. The grin must have got it printed and sent out un- known to me." be stammered. Yes, because you ga-ve her every chanoe to do so by not going to the office since rrm. day," Tannadyoe continued in a white heu. It's no uee your denying it. I happened to come across the girl to-day—it doesn't matter to you when or how-and I got it out of her that what I charge you with is correct." Hooligan's bullet head sank lower, but hie bloodshot eyes peered furtively up at his angry patron. "I couldn't go there again. I had a bad scare-Croal," he snarled. So you allowed my affairs to go by the board," said Tannadyce, somewhat mollified by the admission. I begin to thlfck, my Lord Hooligan, that your value to me has become considerably discounted of late. I know your secret, but that doesn't ooncem me except so far as it incapacitates you. la the first piace, you drink too hard to fulfil my principal requirement of picking up young men about town who wajit to borrow money; and, secondly, how can I employ an agent who deserts me at a. pinch through fear of detective's hand on his shoulder?" You tried me too high," Tann." Hooligan whimpered. "How was I to know when I took on the job that there was to be a mix-up be- tween that blind old fool's show and—and— Inspector Oroal's case," Tannadyoe helped him out. Well. you 08dl make your mind easy about thia office, for I'm going to drop that game. The girl has effectually knocked the bottom out of it. and I have no doubt that Roy lance has backed hie oolt to win a big stake. I have another and a surer project on foot, but I do not know yet whether I shall require your co-operation. If I 60, Hooligan, and you fail me again, you will have to look out for Inspector Croal. I very nearly put him on to you to-night." He turned away and was leaving the room, when the trussed peer called him back with the whine: I say. Tann, loose me yourself, there's a good chap. I'll be quiet enough with you, but there'll be murdei if you were to send those cha-ps back to me." Tannadyce looked him straight in the eyes. and seeing that he was thoroughly cowed, severed his bonds with his penknife and went out to fee the hungry harpies waiting in the street. Hooligan peered through the blind at the proceeding, and when the group bad broken up be ftnng htmself into the chair which he had lately occupied M a prisoner. The office—yes, Oroal or no Oroai, oBM more," he muttered as his great red pMI savagely snatched at the brandy bottle. (To Be
