JOHN WADE came back to the police float, to find the three Scotland Yard men awaiting him.
"I don't know what we can do," said the chief after he had finished his narrative. "A search warrant would probably discover nothing. We haven't any evidence to connect this ship with the India-Rubber Men. She's registered at Rio and sails under the Brazilian flag. If you searched the ship from stem to stern you would find nothing that would justify an arrest, and you couldn't possibly connect these people with the India-Rubber Men. I'm getting the boat checked up; probably it will be ready by the time we get back to the Yard. You had better come along."
