Carl Vogt, saved from surrender to the Prussian Government by the decision of Attorney General Williams, emphatically denies he is the murderer of Chevalier De Bianco, and explains his possession of bank notes and other securities which the Chevalier's relatives claim, by saying he bought them from a woman known as Mrs. Vogt, who bought them in London from a German. This woman is now earning a living by scrubbing law offices in New York City, while the lawyers are fighting for the one hundred thousand dollars' worth of securities which she handed over to them after Vogt's arrest to pay the expenses of his defense.
