At these words, Bergenheim, who had taken no part in the conversation, straightened up in his chair. "A glass of Sauterne," said he, suddenly, to one of his neighbors. Gerfaut looked at him stealthily for a moment, and then lowered his eyes, as if he feared his glance might be noticed.

For six months the "Conquistador" exercised the supreme government in the name of the emperor, now reduced to a puppet-show of authority.
