Synopsle Loitering on the Ban
Francisco water front John Rai-
ney newspaper reporter la accost-
ed by a slant blind man who sake
Rainey to load him aboard tho
sealing schooner Karluk In tbs
cabin they And Captain Simms and
a man named Carlsen - Simms rec
o anises th blind man calling him
Jim Lund Lund accuses Simma of
abandoning him blind on an Ico
floe and denounces him Simms
denies the charge but Lund re-
fuses to be pacified Re declares
his Intention of accompanying the
Karluk on Its expedition north
where It Is going In quest of a gold
field which Lund has discovered
Peggy Simms’ daughter is aboard
and defends her father Carlsen
who Is a physician aa well as first
mate drugs Rainey Awaking from
his stupor Rainey finds himself at
sea Carlsen Informs him ha has
been kidnaped He offers Rainey a
share of the gold and Rainey Is
forced to declare himself satisfied -Lund
gives him a brief account of
a former expedition of tho Karluk
tells him he distrusts Carlaen and
suggests a “partnership” Rainey
to act as Lund’a “eyes” Rainey
la made second mate Captain
Simma Is 111 and the navigation Is
entirely in the hands of Carlsen
At the latter’s suggestion shoot-
Ing match la staged and the seal
hunters exhaust their ammuni-
tion Carlsen shows hie skill with
the pistol and Lund does some as-
tonishing shooting by sound”
Sandy the ship’s boy la swept
overboard and la rescued by Rai-
ney who thus wine Peggy's admi-
ration The captain gets worse
Sandy tells how Carlsen Is stirring
up trouble over the division of the
gold Carlsen draws a gun on Ral-
- nay who overpowers him
CHAPTER V— Continued
He talked in a low voice but It rum-
bled like the distant roar of a bull
Rainey looked at the indomitable Jaw
that the beard could not hide at the
great barrel of his chest the bough-
like arms the swelling thighs and
calves and responded to the sugges-
tion that Lund could rise in Berserker
rage and sweep aside all opposition
“Carlsen says that the skipper’s life
is In his hands” he said “What do
you make of that?” '
“I don’t know what to make of it”
answered Lund “If It is God help the
skipper! 1 reckon he’s in a bad way
Ennyhow he’s out of it for the time
bein’ Rainey"
“There’s the girl" said Rainey “I
don’t believe she wants to marry Carl-
sen” “If she does” said Lund “she ain’t
the kind we need worry about If
you’re interested about the gal Rainey
an’ I take it you are I’m tellin’ you
'that Carlsen’U marry her if it suits his
book If it' don’t he won’t An’ if he
wins out he’ll take her without both-
erin’ about prayer-books an’ ceremo-
nies ' I know his breed All men are
more or less selfish an’ shy on morals
in streaks more o less wide but that
Carlsen’s just plain skunk I’m no
saint but so long as I can keep wig-
glin’ there ain’t enny hunter or sea-
man goin’ to harm a decent gal That’s
another way they ain’t my equal
Rainey Savvy? Nor is Carlsen
There ain’t enough real manhood In
that Carlsen to grease a skillet How
about it Rainey are you lined up
with me?”
“Just as far as I can go Lund I’m
with you to the limit'’
- Lund brought down his hand with a
mighty swing and caught at Ralney'a
In mid-air gripping it ttll Rainey bit
his lips to repress a cry of pain
“You’ve got the guts I” cried the
giant checking the loudness of his
voice abruptly “I knew it - It ain’t
all goin’ to go aa they like it Watch
my smoke Now then keep out of
Carlsen’s way all you can He may
try an’ pick a row with you that’ll put
you In wrongall around Go easy an’
speak easy till land’s sighted”
“What do you think-Carlsen’s game
is if It goes through?”
“He’s fox enough to think: up a
dozen ways Run the schooner ashore
somewhere in the night Wreck her
Git ’em in the boats with the gold In-
aide of a week Demlng an’ one or two
others would have won It Then — he’d
have the only gun — he’d shoot the lot
of 'em an’ say they died at sea He
ain’t got enny more warm blood than
a squid Or be might land and accuse
’em all of piracy What do we care
about bis plana? He ain’t goin’ to put
’em over”
' Rainey had to relieve Hansen He
left Lund primed for resistance against
Carlsen against all the crew if neces-
sary resolved to save the girl but as
Lund stayed below and the time slid
by his confidence oozed out of him
and the odds assumed their mathemat-
ical proportion
What could they do against so
many? But he held firm in his deter-
nination to do what he could to go
The Karluk was bowling along
northward toward landfall and the
crisis between Jnnd and Carlsen at
good speed The weather had subsid-
ed and the half gale now served the
schooner Instead of hindering her
Rainey turned over the wheel to a sea-
man and paced the deck Lund’s mys-
terious hints were unsatisfactory He
could not believe them without some
basis but the giant would never go
farther than vague talk of a “Joker” or
card up his sleeve And they would
need more than one card Rainey
thought ’
He wondered whether they could
win over Hansen who had spoken for
Lund against the skipper and had
then kept his counsel But be dis-
missed Hansen ns an ally The Scan-
dinavian was too cautious too apt-to
consider such things as odds Sandy
was useless aside from bis good-will
He was cowed by Demlng scared of
Carlsen too puny to do more than he
bad done give them warning
Tamada? Would he fight for the
share of gold he expected to come to
him? Lund had described him as neu-
tral But If he knew that he waa to
be left out of the division? At any
rate Tamada might provide him with
a weapon a sharp-bladed vegetable
knife If nothing better He could not
class Tamada as an unimportant fac-
tor There was no question to Rainey
bnt that Tamada was by caste above
his position as sealer’s cook It was
true that a Japanese considered no
means menial if they led to the proper
end
Was that end merely to gain posses-
sion of his share of the gold or did
Tamada have some deeper more com-
plicated reason for signing on to ran
the galley of the Karluk? Somehow
Rainey thought there was such a rea-
son t i
i omwmmm
CHAPTER VI
Tamada Talks
It was au hour from the third meal
ot the day Tamada was juggling the
food for three messes and he was do-
ing it 'with the calm precision of one
who has every detail well mapped out
and is moving on schedule The boy
Sandy was not there probably en-
gaged In laying the table for the hunt-
ers’ mess Rainey imagined '
Tamada regarded him with eyes
that did not lack a certain luster as
a sloeberry might bold it but which
beneath their hooded lids revealed
“You Are Not Hating Mo Because You
Are Californian' and I Japanese ”
Ha 8Ui
neither Interest nor curiosity nor
friendliness They belonged In his un-
wrlnkled face they were altogether
neutral Yet they seemed covertly to
suggest to Rainey that they might on
occasion flame with wrath or hatred
or show the burning light of high in-
telligence “Tamada" he queried “you think I
am your friend that I wou’d rather
help you than otherwise?”
“I think that — yes?” answered the
Japanese without hesitation and with-
out servility “You are not bating me
because you are Californian and I
Japanese” he said “I know that”
There waa little time to spare and
there was likelihood of interruption
so Rainey plunged into bis subject
without Introduction
“They promised yon a share of this
treasure Tamada?” he asked
“They do not Intend to give It to
you You may have guessed this but
I am sure of (t I too am promised
some of the gold but they do not in-
tend to give it to me They will offer
Mr Lund only a small portion of what
waa originally arranged the same
amount as the rest of them are to get
He will refuse that tomorrow when
a meeting Is to be called Then there
will be troubles I shall stand with
Mr Lund If we win you will get
your share whether you help ua or
not If you help us I can promise you
at least twice the amount you were
to get"
“How can I help you? If this is to
be talked over at a meeting I shall
not be allowed to be present I do not
think It will help you for me to join
I do not see how you can win If you
can show some way out I will do what
I can But I like to see way out”
He mollified the bald acknowledg-
ment of his neutrality with a little
bow and a blsslng-in breath Back of
it all was a will that was inflexible
thought Rainey
“If we lose you lose” he went on
lamely He had come on a fool’s er-
rand he decided
“I think I shall get my money" said
Tamada The Oriental gave aswlft
smile that held no inlrth no -friendship
rather a sardonic appreciation
of the situation without rancor
i "They are very foolish" he said
“They make me cook they eat what I
serve They say Tamada is very good
cook But he is Jap d-— n him Sup-
pose I put something in that food
that they would not taste? I could
send them ail to sleep I could kill
them I could do it so they never
suspect but would go to their beds —
and never get up from them It would
be very easy Yet they trust me”
The statement was so matter-of-fact
that Rainey felt his horror gather
slowly as he stared at the impassive
Oriental
A thought suddenly flashed over
him Was Tamada in league with
Carlsen? Had he mistaken his man?
Did Carlsen plan to have Tamada un-
dertake a wholesale poisoning to se-
cure the gold himself providing the
drugs? Was It a friendly hint from
the Japanese?
When Rainey’s watch was ended
and be was closeted with Lund In the
latter’s cabin the giant promptly
quashed all discussion of Tamada’s
attitude
“I’ll put no trust in any slant-eyed
yellow-skinned - rice-eater”- 'he an-
nounced emphatically “They’re
against us race an’ religion They
want California or rather the Pacific
coast an’ they think they’re goin’ to
git it They’re no more akin to us
than a sn mlit Is a cousin to an eel
They’re not p’ our breed an’ you can’t
mix the twb I’ll have no deal with
Tamada beyond gettin’ dope out of
him If be helped us it ud he only to
further his own ends Not that he
can do much — unless — ”
He lowered his voice to a husky
whisper
“There’s one thing may slip in our
gold-gettin’ matey" he said — “the
Japanese I doubt If this Island is se'
down on American or British charts
But I’ll bet it is on the Japanese
They don’t know of the gold or it
wouldn't be there Rightly the Island
may belong to Russia but since the
war Russia's In a bad way an’ enny
thing loose from the mainland’ll be
gobbled by Japan
“What the Japs grab they don’t let
go of If they should suspicion us of
glttln’ gold off enny island they c’ud
trump up to call theirs if they found
gold on ns at all it ’ud be all off with
us n’ the Karluk We’d be dumped
Inside of some Jap prison an’ the
schooner confiscated
“An’ If things go right with us an’
we ever sight the smoke of a Jap gun-
boat cornin’ our way the first thing
I’ll be apt to do will be to scrag Ta-
mada or he’ll blow the whole proposi-
tion whether we’ve got the gold
aboard or not Even If he didn’t want
to tell becoz of his own share they’d
git It out of him what we was after
“Ever play much at cards?” he went
on “Play for yore last red when you
don’t know where to turn for another
an’ have all the crowd think In’ yo're
goin’ broke as they watch the play?
An’ then you slap down a card they’ve
all overlooked an’ Iarf in the other
chap's face?
“That’s what Tm goin’ to do with
Carlsen I’ve got that kind of a card
matey an’ I ain’t goin’ to spoil my
fun by tellin’ even you what it Is
though yo're my partner In this
gamble It's a trump an Carlsen’s
overlooked it"
Lund chuckled hugely as he mixed
himself some whisky and water
Rainey refused a drink He was nerv-
ous bothering over what the outcome
might be and how he might handle
himself He was not at all sure of his
own grit There was a nasty doubt as
to his own prowess and his own cour-
age that kept cropping up And that
state of mind Is not a pleasant one
Rainey went over and over the situ-
ation as a squirrel might race around
the bars of his revolving cylinder and
came to only one conclusion the in-
evitable one to let the matter develop
Itself Lund’s winning card he had
bothered about until his brain was
tired When he turned In at last de-
spite his determination to follow
Lund’s admonition concerning sleep
It would not come to him
He was awakened at half-past seven
got a cup of coffee after dressing
warmly and went on deck Carlsen
and the girl had preceded him Lund
stood at the rail with his beak of 'a
nose wrinkled snuffing toward the icy
crags that were spouting a dazzle of
white flame set about with smaller
sudden flares of ruby emerald and
sapphire
Tamada appeared and announced
hreakfaxt
“You’ll be coming later Rainey?"
asked Carlsen “You andLund?”
He started for the companionway
and the girl followed As yhe passed
the wheel Rainey spoke to her
“I am sorry your father Is so 111
Miss Simms” he said
She looked at him with eyes that
were filled with sadness that seamed
liquid with tears bravely held back
“I am afraid he Is dying” she hn-
swered in a low voice “Thank you for
your sympathy ' I — ”
She stopped at some slight sound
that Rainey did not catch But he saw
the face of Carlsen framed In the
shadow of the companion his mouth
open In a wolf grin and the man’s eyes
were gleaming crimson He held up a
hand for the girl - She passed down
without taking It
' Lund came over to Rainey
“Clear weather they tell me?” he
said “That’s unusual Fog off the
Aleutians three hundred an’ fifty days
of the year as a rule Soon as we
sight land which’ll be ' Unalaska or
thereabouts Carlsen will have the
course changed There’s a considera-
ble fleet of United States revenue cut-
ters at Unalaska an’ Carlsen won’t
pull ennythlng until we’re well west of
there He’s pretty cocky this morn-
in’ Wai we'll see”
There had always been a certain
rollicking good-humor about Lund
This morning he was grim his face
with its beak of a nose and aggressive
chin beneath the flaming whiskers and
Lund Stood at tho Rail With His Beak
of a Noso Wrinktad
his whole magnificent body gave the
Impression of resolve and repressed
action Rainey fancied whimsically
that he could hear a dynamo purring
Inside the giant's massiveness He
had seen him in open rage when he
had first denounced Honest Simms
but the serious mood was far more
impressive
The big man stepped like a great
cat his head was thrust slightly for-
ward his great hands were half open
One forgot his blindness Despite the
unsightly black lenses Lund appeared
so absolutely prepared and In a differ-
ent way fully as confident as Carlsen
A certain audacious assurance seemed
to ooze out of him to permeate his
neighborhood and a measure of It ex-
tended to Rainey
Carlsen before he went below had
sent a man into the fore-spreaders
and now he shouted cupping his hands
and sounding his news as if it had been
a call to arms:'
“Land-ho !”
“What is it?” called Rainey back
“High peak sir Dead ahead!
Clouds on it or smoke"
' He came sliding down the halyards
to the deck as Lund said : “That’ll be
Makushin Now the fun’ll commence”
From below the sailors off watch
come up on deck and the hunters the
latter wiping their mouths fresh from
their interrupted breakfast all crowd-
ing forward to get a glimpse of the
land Minutes passed before Carlsen
came on deck He had not hurried his
meal
“I’ll take her over Rainey” ha said
briefly
Rainey and Lund were barely seated
before the heeling of the schooner and
the scuffle of feet told of Lund’s
prophesied change of course Rainey
looked at the telltale compass above
his head
“Heading due west” he told Lund
“West it is” said the giant “More
coffee Tamada Fill your belly Rainey
Get a good meal while the eatln’ is
good"
Although it was Hansen’s watch be-
low Rainey found him at the wheel
Instead of the seaman he had left
fher-j Carlsen came up to him smll
Ing
“Better let Hansen have the deck
Mr Rainey" he said “WeVe going to
have a conference in the cabin at four
bells and I’d like you to be present”
"The shots Und4 Land
stood thoro orect uninjured A
rod blotch showed between
Carlson’s ay as"
