"Mr. Gluckstein, I understand from Madame Krashoff that you were with her in the garden for the greater part of the time before the crime was discovered." "I wath," the financier quivered--"indeed I wath, inthpector." "Then she left you for about ten minutes?" "Not tho much ath ten minutes," corrected the financier hastily. "What did you do after she left you?" "I stayed vere I vath--until the rain commenthed." "Did you see any one else?" "No one at allth." "Thank you," said the inspector. "Please leave me your address, in case I should want to ask you any further questions." The financier produced a card with trembling fingers.
