c ?
[Copyright, l'.uu. b.v American l'rc?? Asso
elation. J
I'm u burglar that relics on my wits
rather than on my weapons. One
night when I was cracking a bank
vault, working with my face to the
vault, I heard a "Hem!" behind me. I
turtle# aud saw a gentleman looking at
me, with n revolver In his hand.
Now, I had taken precaution to learn
something about the bank and Its offi
cers. I knew their names and had
seen them all. I'd much rather be pro
vided with such Information than a *15
caliber revolver. I knew that the gen
tleman standing there was the vice
president. Mr. Forbes. 1 kept my
nerve as well as possible as I looked
at hint, though It suited my purpose to
look a trifle surprised; but, without ap
pearing to see his weapon and without
speaking, 1 went rlghl on turning my
breast drill, making a hole near the
lock.
"You're a cool one," he said. '
I turned, feigning astonishment
"What do you mean, Mr. Forbes?" I
asked.
"ITow did you know my name Is
Forbes?" he asked, with equal sur
prise.
"IIow do 1 know? Why, I ought to
know the vice president of the bank I
keep my little account In You went
out this afternoon just as I was going
In to Mr. Cumuilugs" (the cashier),
"lie told me there was something
wrong with the lock and had seut for
me to see what it was. I messed over
It for an hour without any tools, then
went home to supper, promising to be
back with 'em Inter. Hut 1 was called
out on an Important Job and didn't get
here till half an hour ago Mr. Cum
mlngs was waiting and let me In. He's
gone out for a bite and a glass of beer
or something. He'll be back present
? . I
I saw in /tls eye remarkable Inter
est In what 1 was tolling blui, and I |
Inferred the cause. He reckoued he'd |
K?ot on to a plan of the cashier's to git |
away with some funds. I learned
afterward that lie and Cuintnlngs |
hated each other like poison.
With this 1 turned and went to :
w?rk again. I didn't know how I was
coining out. I didn't think 1 was com. j
ing out anywhere except behind bars, j
I was simply figuring for a little time j
and a possible loophole. The man be
hind me was probably thinking, too, j
tor he said nothing. 1 argued that, j
having possibly caught his enemy, tho
cashier. In the act, the question was j
how to proceed. It was mighty easy j
for him to make a fool of himself, and
possibly lie Instead of Cummlugs !
might turn out the convicted party.
The first words he said were:
"If your story Is true the lock has
been purposely put out of order. It
was all right at 3 o'clock this after
noon."
"What do you mean, sir?" 1 asked,
looking up at him and puttlug on a
scared look. "You dou't mean there's
any skulduggery going on? I ain't go
ing to get mixed up in it, am I?"
lie gave me a searching look, and I
thought I could see I'd got something
of his confidence.
"Now, my man," he said, "If you'll
help me convict a rascal I'll stand by
you for the rest of your life. If you
are what you pretend to be? working
on the cashier's orders? the plan Is
this: Under pretense of opening a
safe, the lock of which he has pur
posely injured, he gets you to open it
by l he same means a burglar would
use."
"By George! 1 never would have
thought of that."
"The safe opened, he would have
helped himself to the funds, and the
vault would appear to have been '
burglarized."
"And If caught I'd be the burglar!
That's what he got me in for. Is It?"
I was playing for ten years or more
of liberty, and I played the part well
-so well that 1 could see I'd captured
my man. 1 knew I'd got to make a
move pretty soon and take the of
fensive when I did move. Of course
my story would go up In smoke the
moment Mr. Forbes took any action,
and that action would be to call a po
liceman and arrest me. But first he
wanted to get all he could out of me
as to how he could use me to show up
the real rascal. He still held his re
volver In Ills right hand. 1 formed a
plan, and I formed It mighty quick.
"It seems to me, Mr. Forbes, that
the whole matter of proving Mr. Cum
mings' rascality depends upon whether
the lock got out of order naturally or
was put out of order. If I'm going to
testify to that I want to find out about
It now before any oue has a chance to
tamper with It."
"That's right. Examine It."
I had drilled several holes before he
?ame. I put iny little finger In one and
my knife biade in another, pretending
;o be hunting for something, thinking
hard what to do. Presently I stopped
mdden and said happy-like:
"I got it. The lock has been ham
mered."
"How? Let me see."
He shifted his revolver to put a fin
ger of his right hand In the hole I'd
been feeling In and stood close besidt!
me. Quick as a flash I took him on
the jaw. He fell, and I got his re
volver. I always carried rope for
Mndlng purposes and tied him up al
most before he came to his senses. I'd
nearly got through with my work when
he Interrupted me. so I concluded to
Inlsh the job. Within half an hour
more 1 opened the vault, helped my
self to $12,000 In bills and went out,
leaving the vice president bound and
sagged. ALBERT FOBES. i
? The Fate of a Spy. ?
* How s Russian ^Circle Hindlid 9
One of Them. ?
ICopyright, 1909, by Asntertcan Prcs? Aaao
ciatfcon.J
We don't realize here In America
bow many undercurrents 'there are of
foreign Influences. For instance, we
have thousands of Russian political
refugees among us, and we have hun
dreds of Russlau government spies to
watch them. We are us unconscious
of the plot and co<uuternlot constantly
going on between these two foreign
classes as we are of the vast traillc in
the subways uuderlying the city of
New York. It Is only when we go
down there that we see life and mo
tion, such as are above, and It Is only
when one gets the confidence of a
Russian refugee that he Is Introduced
to this constant war between them
and the spies.
Fate led me to such an introduction
and enabled me to tell this story. One
morning, having injured my watch, I
stopped at a watchmaker's shop to
have It repaired. 1 found there? I
will call him Ivan AlexIelT? a Russian
and went there afterward quite fre
quently to get him to do little jobs
for me. One morning I found him
with his heud resting In hi- arms on
his work table sobbing convulsively.
Then came his confidence. He told
me that the year before on that day
his brother had been executed In St.
Petersburg for complicity with a plot
to assassinate the czar. Ivan Alexieff
at the same time lied to the United
States. He was a gentleman born
and, in accordance with a custom
among his peers to educate their chil
dren to some trade, had learned to be
a watchmaker. There were four oth
er refugees, with whom he met at
stated periods for consultation with a
view of their mutual protection. Not
one of them but had lost some rela
tive either by the executioner or In the
desolate wilds of Siberia.
I became deeply Interested In Alex
leff, and he came to contlde in me as
Implicitly as in his fellow refugees.
Indeed, I did some detective work for
blm In this wise: I found him ono
morning In great tribulation. He told
me that some time before a refugee
had come to the place and been admit
ted to their circle. They now suspect
ed tiiat he was a spy In the pay of the
Itusslan government. The man passed
under the name of ObletidolT and kept
a little cake and candy shop.
I agreed to make the acquaintance
of Oblendoff and see If I could get his
confidence and his secret. I picked up
a child on the street, took him in the
shop, bought him candy and chatted
with the owner. This I repeated often,
talked bitterly of assassins In Russia
and in time told him 1 knew of several
circles of refugees in that very town.
When I told him of the one I did
know about 1 gained his confidence,
and It was not long before I went to
my friend the watchmaker with un
doubted proof that the suspect was a
spy
A plan was laid, and a meeting of
the circle was called, at which the spy
was present. The leader locked the
door and announced to the members
that one of their number was a spy.
He then submitted a declaration to
every member stating that he had vol
untarily committed suicide. All signed
the paper, the spy maintaining good
nerve and signing with the others. He
must have known that he was suspect
ed.
The leader's next move was to take
a pistol from a desk drawer and show
the members that Its sis chambers
were empty. After this he put a ball
cartridge In one chamber and, hold !
Ing the hammer, turned the cylinder
rapidly, giving every member permls- I
slon to do the sauie with averted gaze.
Thus the position of the cartridge was ;
lost The leader then took the pistol ;
and slipped a rubber band over the
cylinder, holding the weapon under j
the table while he did so. presumably j
that no one could see where the car- '
trldge lay. Then he said:
"Oue of us must die, and the spy, j
whoever he may me, must take his
chances with us. I will lire the tirst
shot at myself and If not killed will :
pass the weapon to my left, each man
to lire his In turn."
Raising the pistol to his temple, he ;
drew the trigger. There was a snap,
but no explosion. The second man did
the same, with the same result, nnd so
on till the pistol came to the fourth
man, the spy. He was white as a j
sheet, but still held his nerve. FossI- j
bly he conceived the affair a bluff? I
that the cartridge was a sham. At ;
any rate, putting the pistol to his tem
ple, he pulled the trigger and fell
dead.
The next morning the papers con
tained an account of a suicide of a j
stranger, supposed to be a Russian, j
The deed was committed In a room the
renter of which did not appear, but
the suicide left a paper acknowledging
his Intention. As soon as I read this
account I knew that the circle had
made away with the spy. I went to '
once to the watchmaker and found ;
him, as usual, mending watches. I
showed him the article. He glanced j
it over, shook his head and went back
to work without uttering a word.
The same day a member of the clr- |
cle called on me, thanked me for the i
Information I had given them, but '
told me at the same time that It must J
be silence or death. Long afterward
I was told how the matter was man- !
aged. When the leader held the ?
weapon under the table he dexterous- j
ly changed It for another that had |
been slipped there by a member with |
a ball cartridge placed In the fourth j
chamber from the hammer.
I'm not doing such detective work !
any more. I don't fancy the responsi
bility Involved.
