"Suppose the captain took them with him?" remarked Ned. "He did not know about them. That is he did not know of what the valuables consisted. The gold and papers were put in a safe, and only Blowitz and myself had the combination. The safe was placed in the captain's cabin, and he was instructed to deliver it, unopened, to a certain man.
"Yes, and that's why he was in such a hurry for us to start," added Ned, and they told of their dealings with Blowitz, and his anger at their refusal to take part in his schemes. "I can't be thankful enough to you boys," said the wounded man. "I don't know what would have become of me if you hadn't happened to have seen Blowitz push me from the cliff. I I wish " Mr.
I think you boys could do what I want, and, as I say, I'm willing to pay well. I'd go with you, of course. What do you say?" Mr. Blowitz seemed quite anxious. In fact he was so anxious that Jerry was suspicious. "I wonder why he doesn't hire some larger boat, or a small steam tug to go for that derelict?" thought Jerry.
He didn't think he did, was not quite ready yet, but his hand might be forced by his friends, and of course if he wanted it, he would be the next President du Conseil. He also told me a great many things that Blowitz had said to him he had a great opinion of him said he was so marvellously well-informed of all that was going on.
The muffler. was not working just right, and the usually noiseless engine of the Ripper was making quite a fuss. Blowitz was in a listening attitude, standing in bold relief in the moonlight, and, having, apparently, satisfied himself as to where the boat was, he started to descend the cliff. "He's coming down," said Ned. "Is that the Ripper?" called Blowitz suddenly.
I asked him to make out the papers so we could have a chance to consider it." "Well, maybe you're right," admitted Ned. "But I do hope it's all right. It would be great, to take a voyage on the Pacific in the Ripper." The boys hurried back to the bungalow, intending to tell Mr. Seabury the result of their talk with Mr. Blowitz before mentioning it to the girls. "Father has gone out," said Rose.
"What was in them I do not know exactly, but it was some chemical that Blowitz put there to accomplish his purpose. I see through his scheme now. After the brig was loaded he sent these boxes aboard. They were distributed in different parts of the ship, some in the quarters of the crew, some where the mates slept, and others in the captain's cabin.
Shortly before five o'clock the three boys started to keep their appointment with Carson Blowitz. Professor Snodgrass had not succeeded in finding any horned toads, and announced his intention of making a search near the bed of a dried-up river that evening, as he had heard there were some there.
As the derelict hunters all came out on deck they could see the Monarch was much nearer. In bold relief stood a figure in the bow. "It's Blowitz!" exclaimed Mr. De Vere, "and he's shaking his fist at me. He's angry because I have beaten him at his own game. But come on, I don't want a clash with him. I am in no shape for another fight. We'll have to retreat."
"What! Not decided!" exclaimed Blowitz. "Why I want you to start at once or that is to-morrow morning. I have just received news that makes it important that the search begin at once. I am depending on you. You will go at once, won't you? Come, I'll increase my offer," he said.
