Question: CHAPTER XVIII 

DOUBTS AND DIFFICULTIES 

The Stanton girls and Mrs. Montrose came in early that afternoon. They had heard rumors of the arrest of Jones and were eager to learn what had occurred. Patsy and Beth followed them to their rooms to give them every known detail and canvass the situation in all its phases. 

"Goldstein has been an angel all afternoon," said Flo. "He grinned and capered about like a schoolboy and some of us guessed he'd been left a fortune." 

"He ought to be ashamed of himself." Patsy indignantly asserted. "The man admitted to Uncle John that Ajo is the biggest stockholder in the Continental, the president, to boot; yet Goldstein wouldn't lift a finger to help him and positively refused to obey his request to go to him after he was arrested." 

"I know about that," said Aunt Jane, quietly. "Goldstein talked to me about the affair this afternoon and declared his conviction that young Jones is really a pearl thief. He has taken a violent dislike to the boy and is delighted to think his stock will be taken away from him." 

Maud had silently listened to this dialogue as she dressed for dinner. But now she impetuously broke into the conversation, saying: 

"Something definite ought to be done for the boy. He needs intelligent assistance. I'm afraid his situation is serious." 

"That is what Arthur thinks," said Beth. "He says that unless he can furnish proof that he is not Jack Andrews, and that he came by those pearls honestly, he will be shipped to Austria for trial. No one knows what those foreigners will do to him, but he would probably fare badly in their hands."  1. Who followed the women?

input: CHAPTER XVIII 

A MEETING OF SOCIALISTS 

The _brasserie_ into which the two men pushed their way was smaller and less ornate than the one which they had last visited. Many of the tables, too, were laid for supper. The tone of the place was still entirely Teutonic. Kendricks and his companion seated themselves at a table. 

"You will eat sausage?" Kendricks asked. 

"I will eat anything," Julien replied. 

"It is better," Kendricks remarked. "Here from the first we may be watched. We are certainly observed. Be sure that you do not let fall a single word of English. It might be awkward afterwards." 

"It's a beastly language," Julien declared, "but the beer and sausages help. How many of the people here will be at the meeting?" 

"Not a hundredth part of them," Kendricks answered. "It was a terrible job to get these tickets and I wouldn't like to guarantee now that we have them that we get there. Remember, if any questions are asked, you're an American, the editor or envoy of _The Coming Age._" 

"The dickens I am!" Julien exclaimed. "Where am I published?" 

"In New York; you're a new issue." 

Julien ate sausages and bread and butter steadily for several minutes. 

"To me," he announced, "there is something more satisfying about a meal of this description than that two-franc dinner where you stole my chicken." 

"You have Teutonic instincts, without a doubt," Kendricks declared, "but after all, why not a light dinner and an appetite for supper? Better for the digestion, better for the pocket, better for passing the time. What are you staring at?"  1. what was the tone like in the restaurant?
2. are they being watched?
3. what must they be careful not to do?
