Phelan shot one keen glance of in­
credulity at the financier, then wheeled
about and resumed his rapt study of
the portrait.
“Yes.” continued Wainwright ”1 ad­
mit that my City Surface line is In a
way the rival of the Borough Street
railway, but in a big city like this
there’s surely room for both lines to
carry on a prosperous business, so why
should they try to injure each other?"
"Why. oh. why?" echoed Phelan,
again addressing the portrait. "Cun I
be genin' so old that I've begun bear­
in' queer things that’s never said?"
Wainwright paid no heed to the In-
terpolatlon, but went on:
“Of course the franchise will be a
good thing for the Borough road, but
It needn't hurt the City Surface line.
Besides, the passing of the bill made
Borough stock rise from «3 to SI. Then
when that unauthorized announcement
was made today that your honor would
veto it the stock tumbled from 81 to
73. Just see what power rests with
you, Mr. Bennett! lf you should veto
the bill, the

Ingram forestalled any reply from
the financier by entering with the tid­
ings that Thompson was In the ante­
room with an important message for
Wainwright.
"May I see him in here?” asked the
visitor. "It is my private secretary,

"Certainly,” asserted Bennett "Show

said he. “just a minute or so after you
left the office. He wishes you to come

“All right.’-' answered the financier.
"1'11 come at once. I'm sorry, your

The financier passed out. Thompson
was following when Phelan, who had
never once removed hls eyes from the
secretary, stepped In front of him.
“Well, young man!" said he.
“Well, sir!” said Thompson In mild
surprise.
“You remember me?”
“1 don't think so. sir."
“Huh! That's queer! I'm Alderman

"I’ve read about you. of course, sir,

"But you don’t know me? Never met

“I'm sorry, sir. but I can’t recall It

The secretary hurried out after bls
employer. Phelan, with a puzzled shal.r
of the bead, seemed trying to solve
some elusive problem. But Bennett,
who had not noted the brief scene be­
tween Thompson and the alderman,
broke In on the latter's musings with
the remark:
“You appeared to be amazed a! Mr.

"But I've no personal quarrel with

“You’ve got the same quarrel with

“I see more al>out that bill than you

He held out bls

"Pm glad we had this talk, aider­

different points of view, but our main
object Is the same. I think we can

"We sure can!" agreed Phelan. "An'
