A New and Deadly Force is IntroducedIn A Plot to DestroyLondon.
The Three Days’Terror
By J. S. FLETCHER
It was impossible for Lord Grandminster, Prime Minister of England, to believe, at first that London could be destroyed in a terrible and unknown manner if the fabulous sum of money, demanded by the men who boasted they were the possessors of a new Force which was mighty enough to wreck the world, was not delivered before a set date. The ransom was not paid and the first blow of “The Dictators” was struck. Charing Cross was leveled to the ground in a manner that left no doubt of the powers of the pitiless, unknown Dictators. Three days of looting and terror followed in the city; days filled with maddening suspense for the ministry that had disregarded the ultimatum—a suspense that was only ended when the steamer Malvolio was sunk in the North Sea.
