And me, like a fool, I insist that It's just a mistake and doesn't fit Into the picture and Hall plays right up, agreeing with me. You were right, boy.

Let's work onl the way he committed the murder if we can. He get.s kicked out of this college and goes to Chicago, where he gets a job with this Insurance company and finally becomes investigator. Somewhere along the line he's handled this poMcy of Reeves and knows where lie is. "Then he conceives this ironic plan of killing him, and afterwards coming down in his role of investigator to watch out for his own Interest. 1 probably took a couple of days off.

"But how would he get in and out of the house. Tim? Where could he have got a key?" "There was always the fire escape," Tim reminded him. "I'll wager you don't know now whether the window of the room was locked when you first went up there Tuesday morning. What's more, he could have walked right down the fire escape into Reeves' room. Reeves' windows were wide open, vou remember." Lee agreed.

"He'd probably stay in all day and go and come late at night, wouldn't he?" he asked the reporter. "Well, then why couldn't he have overheard Reeves ask to borrow young Jamieson's gun? Being an investigator, he must have worried some from the beginning about our tracing his gun. He'd know about Identifying bullets and nil "Yon mean he would have decided to use the gun he heard them talking about leaving in the office? Maybe so. It'd be a risky thing to do unless he carried his own gun in over to overpower Reeves in the first place." "But suppose he did do just that," argued the Inspector. "Suppose he lay there Monday night, listening to Reeves' callers, first his wife.and then Glovinni, and In between reading that magazine.

After Giovinni leaves, all he has to do Is walk down to the fire escape, force Reeves at the point of his gun to turn over Jamleson's revolved, shoot him, and walk out He could have caught the first plane back to Chicago, reported for work promptly in the morn- Jng, and been down here again on that two o'clock plane just as we know he did come. How does that sound?" K. I guess," admitted Tim. he must have hated Reeves to shoot him down in cold blood like that. I don't Hall Is the sort who could do that unless he was out of his head with anger." "Anybody who murders is sort of Insane, Tim.

Good men can do it, though. Don't you remember that banker's son who killed his dad when he found out the old man was two-timing his mother? He was a swell young fellow, a damn sight bigger man than his dad, for all he's £erving life in the pen." But the reporter, busy with pencil and paper, refund to be drawn into that old argument. "Let's get some of this down on paper and see whore we are." he urged. "We'll have to have more than suspicions and possibilities to tell the district attorney." He scribbled bxisily for some minutes while Lee looked on, over his shoulder, occasionally offering comments and suggestions. When he had finished Tim's paper read something like this: MOTIVE.

Donald Reeves had been the cause, unwittingly, of ruining Windsor Hall's career and dis- gracing him forever In his intended profession. OPPORTUNITY. It takes only two hours to go from Chicago to Center City by plane. Hall could have made trip, killed Reeves, and returned the same night. However, because of signs of occupancy in the room on the third floor, Hall t.a'l probably been there for several days, waiting.

It still remains that he probably flew back to Chicago that night after the crime. At least two points here must be investigated: (1) Fingerprints in the third floor room must be compared with Hall's. (2) Night at all airports must be questioned as to whether they toon to Chicago on Monday night. Regular passenger planes would not De flying at that hour, so he must have chartered a special plane. SUSPICIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES.

1. Hall has never, since he returned to Center City as investigator, tried to see or talk to Mrs. Reeves, although he is representing her husoand's insurance company. Has this been chance or because he feared that she recognize him and bring up the old story of t'ae thesis? On at least one occasion, the night of tne, questioning of Jamieson, Dan, and' Mrs. Reeves, he strongly urged that it was too late when Inspector Lee sent for her.

He even remained at the window, facing the street, until after the matron nad returned without her. 2. The very ra-Jt that he appeared no investigator, pretending complete ignorance of the dead man. is in itself suspicious. 3.
