CHAPTER Thirty CONCLUSION.
'I'VE a great deal to tell you, Prince,' Racksole began, as soon as they were out of the room, 'and also, as I said, something to show you.
Will you come to my room?
We will talk there first.

The whole hotel is humming with excitement.' 'With pleasure,' said Aribert.
'Glad his Highness Prince Eugen is recovering,' Racksole said, urged by considerations of politeness.
'Ah! As to that--' Aribert began.

'If you don't mind, we'll discuss that later, Prince,' Racksole interrupted him.
They were in the proprietor's private room.
'I want to tell you all about last night,' Racksole resumed, 'about my capture of Jules, and my examination of him this morning.' And he launched into a full account of the whole thing, down to the least details.

'You see,' he concluded, 'that our suspicions as to Bosnia were tolerably correct.

But as regards Bosnia, the more I think about it, the surer I feel that nothing can be done to bring their criminal politicians to justice.' 'And as to Jules, what do you propose to do ?' 'Come this way,' said Racksole, and led Aribert to another room.
