The Prefect of Police spoke like One
in some reflection.
® "It is by no means certain."
"Not certain?" echoed the Envoy.
"The man is dead!"
"One maybe dead without having
been 'murdered;" replied the Prefect
of Police. "It is possible that the
hand.!that gave .Dernburg Pasha his
fatal wound is no longer alive in this

The Turkish Envoymade an excla-

""You cannot mean that Dem:burg

"You travel, monsieur," he said, "a

know that 'this midnight visitor is' the
assassin? We must consider the evi-
dences as they are presented to us,"

this fact," replied the Envoy,"it cir-

that theyso appear ecadse a one

he would undertake to create evidence
against himself. And it is beyond our

Therefore, monsieur, these evtdences

the details of a formula:
