"That launch is full of Chinks!" he said, "but they have shoved off. I
think they saw Mr. Brady's big hat and were scared away."
Perhaps it was so, for they did not return.
The suit-case, being opened, was found stuffed with yellow-backs with
some gold.
When counted later the amount proved to be a little over $75,000.
Garshaski was rounded up in San Francisco jail, later going to a
hospital.
The Princess Skeep Hup was turned over to the Lung Brothers with the
treasure. Some weeks later she married Ah Lung, who made a quick
recovery.
That night the Bradys with Leggett and other Secret Service men returned
to the abandoned beach.
Here they went into hiding, waiting for the opium smugglers.
And again it proved a foggy night, which greatly aided them in their
work.
Two boats landed between one and two o'clock.
Meanwhile Volckman, five Chinamen and a white representative of the
crooked commercial house were on land to receive the cargo.
At the right moment the Bradys rounded up the whole outfit; thus that
incident was closed.
Dr. Garshaski went to San Quentin for ten years. The opium smugglers
received various short sentences.
Volckman's was five years.
But what became of Wang Foo?
This was never known.
Mysteriously he seemed to have vanished.
Garshaski denied all knowledge of the man, but Alice is firmly of the
opinion that he was murdered in the torture room connected with the
House of the Seven Delights.
The police raided the place and cleaned out all its occupants.
Old King Brady looked up Inez Reyes and not only gave her $200, but paid
her way back to Mexico.
Ah Lung treated the Bradys most liberally and Leggett came in for his
share.
Well could Ah Lung afford it, for, thanks to skillful detective work, he
had secured old Gong Schow's hidden treasure and his Chinese Princess.
Next week's issue will contain "THE BRADYS AND 'OLD DANGEROUS'; OR,
AFTER THE KING OF THE BANK BREAKERS."
