"
But
are
you
not
mistaken
?
"
"
I
am
not
mistaken
.
"
"
Why
was
this
robber
so
anxious
to
prove
,
by
the
visa
,
that
he
had
passed
through
Suez
?
"
"
Why
?
I
have
no
idea
;
but
listen
to
me
.
"
He
reported
in
a
few
words
the
most
important
parts
of
his
conversation
with
Passepartout
.
"
In
short
,
"
said
the
consul
,
"
appearances
are
wholly
against
this
man
.
And
what
are
you
going
to
do
?
"
"
Send
a
dispatch
to
London
for
a
warrant
of
arrest
to
be
dispatched
instantly
to
Bombay
,
take
passage
on
board
the
Mongolia
,
follow
my
rogue
to
India
,
and
there
,
on
English
ground
,
arrest
him
politely
,
with
my
warrant
in
my
hand
,
and
my
hand
on
his
shoulder
.
"
Having
uttered
these
words
with
a
cool
,
careless
air
,
the
detective
took
leave
of
the
consul
,
and
repaired
to
the
telegraph
office
,
whence
he
sent
the
dispatch
which
we
have
seen
to
the
London
police
office
.
A
quarter
of
an
hour
later
found
Fix
,
with
a
small
bag
in
his
hand
,
proceeding
on
board
the
Mongolia
;
and
,
ere
many
moments
longer
,
the
noble
steamer
rode
out
at
full
steam
upon
the
waters
of
the
Red
Sea
.
The
distance
between
Suez
and
Aden
is
precisely
thirteen
hundred
and
ten
miles
,
and
the
regulations
of
the
company
allow
the
steamers
one
hundred
and
thirty-eight
hours
in
which
to
traverse
it
.
The
Mongolia
,
thanks
to
the
vigorous
exertions
of
the
engineer
,
seemed
likely
,
so
rapid
was
her
speed
,
to
reach
her
destination
considerably
within
that
time
.
The
greater
part
of
the
passengers
from
Brindisi
were
bound
for
India
some
for
Bombay
,
others
for
Calcutta
by
way
of
Bombay
,
the
nearest
route
thither
,
now
that
a
railway
crosses
the
Indian
peninsula
.
Among
the
passengers
was
a
number
of
officials
and
military
officers
of
various
grades
,
the
latter
being
either
attached
to
the
regular
British
forces
or
commanding
the
Sepoy
troops
,
and
receiving
high
salaries
ever
since
the
central
government
has
assumed
the
powers
of
the
East
India
Company
:
for
the
sub-lieutenants
get
280
pounds
,
brigadiers
,
2,400
pounds
,
and
generals
of
divisions
,
4,000
pounds
.
What
with
the
military
men
,
a
number
of
rich
young
Englishmen
on
their
travels
,
and
the
hospitable
efforts
of
the
purser
,
the
time
passed
quickly
on
the
Mongolia
.
The
best
of
fare
was
spread
upon
the
cabin
tables
at
breakfast
,
lunch
,
dinner
,
and
the
eight
o'clock
supper
,
and
the
ladies
scrupulously
changed
their
toilets
twice
a
day
;
and
the
hours
were
whirled
away
,
when
the
sea
was
tranquil
,
with
music
,
dancing
,
and
games
.
But
the
Red
Sea
is
full
of
caprice
,
and
often
boisterous
,
like
most
long
and
narrow
gulfs
.
When
the
wind
came
from
the
African
or
Asian
coast
the
Mongolia
,
with
her
long
hull
,
rolled
fearfully
.
Then
the
ladies
speedily
disappeared
below
;
the
pianos
were
silent
;
singing
and
dancing
suddenly
ceased
.
Yet
the
good
ship
ploughed
straight
on
,
unretarded
by
wind
or
wave
,
towards
the
straits
of
Bab-el-Mandeb
.
What
was
Phileas
Fogg
doing
all
this
time
?
