The Criminal Underworld "THE WIRE TAPPERS? y "PHANTOM WIRES" By Arthur Stringer These two new fiction stories of the criminal underworld by Arihur Stringer represent some of his best writing in this held. The two might really be consid- ered one continued story for in 'MThe Wire Tappers" we are introduced to James Durkin, expert electrician and tel- egrapher and his partner in many thrill- ing adventures, Frances Calder. This man and woman are drawn into the activities of the underworld largely through force of circumstances and once in they find it exceedingly difficult to break away and lead a normal life again. "The Wire Tappers" takes these two through many thrilling adventures in which they finally succeed in breaking up a series of large gambling operations and barely escape with their lives. The plot is interesting and the actkm is swift. "Phantom Wires" finds these same two in England and on the Continent.

At the end they are face to face with the realization that a life of crime, no matter on how high a plane it is conducted does not bring peace of mind and happiness. These two, characters are wonderfully well drawn as are also the characters of McNutt and Keenan, the two gamblers who are their chief foes. Copyright 1923, Howard H.
