The two detectives again inspected the suit-case. An extra suit had been neatly folded. The pockets bore the label of a leading tailor, and the name "Roland R. Warren." The tailor-made shirts and underwear bore the maker's name and Warren's initials. The handkerchiefs were Warren's. Even those articles which were without name or initials contained the same laundry-mark as those which they knew belonged to the dead man. Carroll's face showed keen interest. This newest development had rather startled him, and made an almost irresistible appeal to his love for the bizarre in crime. The very fact that the circumstances smacked of the impossible intrigued him. He narrowed his eyes and gazed again upon the form of the dead man. Finally he nudged Leverage and designated three initials on the end of the suit-case. "R.R.W.--Roland R. Warren!" Leverage grunted. "It's his, all right, Carroll. But just the same there ain't no such animal." Carroll turned to the dazed Walters. "Understand what we've just discovered, son?" he inquired mildly. Spike's teeth were chattering with cold. "I don't hardly understand none of it, sir. 'Cording to what I make out, that suit-case belongs to the body and not to the woman." "Right! Now what I want to know is how that could be." Spike shook his head dazedly. "Lordy, Mr. Carroll, I couldn't be knowing that." "You're sure the woman got into your cab alone?" "Absolutely, sir. She came through the waiting-room alone, carrying that very same suit-case--" "You're positive it was _that_ suit-case?" "Yes, sir--that is, as positive as I can be. You see I was on the lookout for a fare, but wasn't expecting one, on account of the fact that this here train was an accommodation, and folks that usually come in on it take street-cars and not a taxi. Well, the minute I seen a good-lookin', well-dressed woman comin' out the door, I sort of noticed. It surprised me first off, because I asked myself what she was doing on that train." "You thought it was peculiar?" "Not peculiar, exactly; but sort of--of--interesting." "I see. Go ahead!" "Well, she was carrying that suit-case, and she seemed in a sort of a hurry. She walked straight out of the door and toward the curb, and--" "Did she appear to be expecting some one?" "No, sir. I noticed that particularly. Sort of thought a fine lady like her would have some one to meet her, which is how I happened to notice that she didn't seem to expect nobody. She come right to the curb and called me. I was parked along the curb on the right side of Atlantic Avenue--headin' north, that is--and I rolled up. She handed me the suit-case and told me to drive her to No. 981 East End Avenue. I stuck the suit-case right where you got it from just now; and while I ain't sayin' nothin' about what happened back yonder in the cab, Mr. Carroll, I'll bet anything in the world that that there suit-case is the same one she carried through the waitin'-room and handed to me."
