CHAPTER V
jyjARY and Jim Chase arrived
at Police Headquarters after
Tom Ladd. Commissioner Fenc-
lon had left word for her to come
directly to his office.
She «lanced at the big clock in
the white marble hall. The hour
hand pointed to 3. Tired, de-
pressed and apprehensive, she
could imagine things closing
ominously in on her and Tom
Sinister men in shadowy streets,
wicked blue steel revolvers. The
dark, slick waters of the river,
White bodies on cold stone slabs.
Like Black bats these macabre
thoughts ran through her mind as
she climbed the stairs with the
detective. Three o'clock In the
morning was also the ebb hour
for Police Headquarters. A cou
pie of officers in the main corridor
watched the door, but aside from
them the halls were deserted.
"I'll leave yott here," Chase
said, as they reached the third
floor.
Nodding good by, she walked
into the Commissioner's office.
A low lamp burned over the
biff desk. The air was gray with
smoke. Tom sat in his coat and
hut, as though he had only just
come in, but the ashes in the little
tray on the desk showed that he
had been there some time. At
sight of Mary he jumped up.
"You're not hurt?" he asked
anxiously.
"No. I'm all right."
He turned. "Miss Franklin, this
is Commissioner Fenelon."
The commissioner was not the
officer of fiction. Educated, suave
and easy mn nnei ed, he was, as
Mary know, a lightning keen po-
lice officer, trained to the job.
"Won't you sit down, Miss
Franklin. I want to hear more
about tine Duke and Nick Hart.
Their actions may have some
bearing on Janice French's dis-
appearance."
• * •
■pENELON was a big fellow, over
six feet tall, with strong, wide
shoulders anil a muscular body.
He had «late gray eyes that nar-
rowed when he talked and long,
sensitive-fingered hands. When
you looked at them you couldn't
help thinking that they'd cloci
Ilka si< I on anything they
gripped.
"Janice's parents are frantic,
Mary," Ladd said. "They haven't
seen her since Wednesday."
"She called them yesterday
noon, however," interrupted Fene-
lon, "but she didn't say where atae
was. just said she'd spend the
week-end with them at Tuxedo."
"Did they know of this apart-
ment she kepi on East 70th
Street?" inquired Mary.
"No. And I haven't told them.
They might lose their heads and
rush to It. I want to keep it
clear. I may be able to trap the
Duke with the goods. Tell us
what happened to you there."
Mary repented the story she
had told Chase, building it up with
word sketches of the Dove and
an account of her conversation
with the Duke earlier in the eve-
ning.
"Janice was just a fat, juicy
plum for Martin and Hart to
blackmail," said the commis-
sioner. "For that reason I can't
believe they'd kill the goose that
laid the golden egg. She was
worth more alive."
"But where is she?" asked
Mary-
"Hiding."
Ladd looked thoughtful, "My
ess is that Martin and Hart also
Ink she is hiding. They'll give
After that, little was heard of
Martin until 1932, when he started
the Dove with Nick Hart, his gang
lieutenant. Bill Conuon wat the
liounccr. Annie, the scrubwoman,
Martin's mother, had disappeared.
Martin was putting on the Rltz.
Gradually, he was becoming a
definite charneter in the night life
of New York. Park avenuo began
to patronize his place."
"It was then," interrupted the
commissioner, "that the idea of
blackmail struck the Duke as an
easy racket. He trained Bill to
help frame his customers. Do you
remember the first time the name
of the Dove was sent Into the Ga-
zette?"
"About three years ago," said
Mary. "I recall the case—a rich
man who was later divorced. A
candid shot of him taken at the
Dove with a pretty girl came in
with the atory. I didn't use it,
but the Looking Glass did. When
the man's wife filed suit she
named the girl as corespondent."
• * *
THE ringing of the telephone in-
* terrupted them. "What's that?"
said Fenelon. "No one in any hos-
pital answering the description of
Janice French? Try the morgue."
„ Then to Mary, "That man you

Those fellows are pretty well or-
ganized." The commissioner
touched some papers in front of
him. "Like to see their records?"
* • *
"MARY reached for a report
■iTA marked. "Jake Martin, al!a3
'The Duke,'" and read: "Born in
August, 1908, in Hell's Kitchen.
Son of Annie, scrubwoman, who
worked in the Beaux Arts restau-
rant at 40th street und 6th avenue.
"Annie was arrested ten times
for petty larceny. She schooled
her son in the cocaine racket. He
was a good student. His name
didn't appear on the police blot-
ters until 1924. This was the first
time that the names of Nick Hart
and Bill Condon had been coupled
with his. Mother's tears are effec-
tive weapons before a Parole
Board. One year after his sen-
tence, Jake Martin was free again.
He and his mother went into the
bootlegging business, first In a
modest way above a poo' hall on
the corner of 80th street and 11th
avenue, later In more elaborate
surroundings on 8th avenue and
53d street.
"Martin became associated with
a dope racketeer named Cokie
Conklin. Only Martin and his old
mother know what happened after
Conklin dined with them the night
Cokie carried $20,000 In cash on
his person. Even Conklin cannot
tell; he was never seen again.
courage.
He banged his fist on the desk.
"Even though I know the Duke's
a crook, a murderer and every-
thing else you want to call him,
I can't arrest him without evi-
dence. That Is where you can help
me. Miss Franklin."
"At least I could describe the
piefures I saw tonight," said Mary.
"That wouldn't help," snapped
Fenelon. "If Hart took those snap-
shots of Janice French with him,
there's nothing we can do on that
score."
"It would be your word against
theirs, Mary," broke in Ladd, "be-
fore a hipper-dipper Judge and
with the best lawyer in town
smearing you."
A knock punctuated Ladd's sen-
tence. "Come In," called Fenelon.
An officer stepped in. "The
Morgue's reported the body of a
young girl dragged from the East
River near Beekman Place, air."
Fenelcn and Ladd stared at one
nnother. "She's dead?" cried
Mary.
"Yes. They put it down as sui-
cide"
"Could you identify Janice
French, Miss Franklin?"
"I ought to be able to. I've been
following her six weeks."
The commissioner picked up his
telephone. "Call the car." Then
to Mary and Ladd, "Lefll go."
