 THE MAN WITH THE EBONY WALKING-STICK
 
A group consisting of Deputy Chief Detective Weber, Chief Inspector1 Ancenis, Sergeant2 Mazeroux, three inspectors3, and the Neuilly commissary of police stood outside the gate of No. 8 Boulevard Richard-Wallace.
 
Mazeroux was watching the Avenue de Madrid, by which Don Luis would have to come, and began to wonder what had happened; for half an hour had passed since they telephoned to each other, and Mazeroux could find no further pretext4 for delaying the work.
 
"It's time to make a move," said Weber. "The housekeeper5 is making signals to us from the window: the joker's dressing6."
 
"Why not nab him when he comes out?" objected Mazeroux. "We shall capture him in a moment."
 
"And if he cuts off by another outlet7 which we don't know of?" said the deputy chief. "You have to be careful with these beggars. No, let's beard him in his den8. It's more certain."
 
"Still—"
 
"What's the matter with you, Mazeroux?" asked the deputy chief, taking him on one side. "Don't you see that our men are getting restive9? They're afraid of this sportsman. There's only one way, which is to set them on him as if he were a wild beast. Besides, the business must be finished by the time the Prefect comes,"
 
"Is he coming?"
 
"Yes. He wants to see things for himself. The whole affair interests him enormously. So, forward! Are you ready, men? I'm going to ring."
