Three Broken Threads

Its like a connection for a net which consists of only three threads. With these three threads, then the net that Sherlock Holmes has would be usable. The net's purpose was to catch the suspect, but the three threads were actually information from the telegram, Cartwright, and the Taxi driver. Since all the three situations did not go in the direction that Sherlock Holmes expected, he couldn't come to a conclusion. This can be an interpretation that the suspect was also intelligent, but his/her intelligence was used in an evil way. This also shows that Sherlock Holmes' first attempt wasn't always successful and he wasn't perfect. Even though he could sometimes use small details to make a net from 3 threads and create a conclusion.
