You h iveo’t the slight •at idea who the other shareholder* are; the company is thoroughly rotten in all Ita past history, and here you go plung ing into it up to your eyee. And they say you’re the moat conaenratire banker on the riser." " I guess you don’t have to get me out o f many scrapes.’’ said Porter. “ When's the annual meeting?” asked Kenton. “ It's day after to-morrow— a close call hui I ’H make it all right.** “ Mr. Porter, I want you to remember that I haven’t given you any advice at all in this matter. It’s an extra hasard- ous thing that you’re doing. Now, I don’t know anything definitely about it. but — I ’ ve got the impression that Margrave’s paralleling your lines in this busii “ Where'd you get that?’’ “ It's this way,” said Fenton, in hla quietest tones. “ A Baltimore laeryer that I know wrote me a letter asking me about Margrave's responsibility. It seems that my friend has a client who owns soa^e of these shares. A good deal of that stock went to Baltimore and Phi'a- delphia, you may remember. I assume that Margrave Is after it.” “ W ire your friend right away not to s e ll!" shouted Porter, pounding the table with his fist. “ I did that this morning, and here's his answer. <• I got it just before you came in. Margrave evidently got anxious and wired them to send certificates with draft through the Drovers’ National. They’ re probably on the way now.” He passed the telegram across to Porter, who put on his glasses and read it. "Now ,” continued Fenton, “ I don’ t know just what this means, hut It looks to me as if Margrave eras hot on the track of the trolley company himself; and Tim Margrave isn’ t a particularly pleas ant fellow to go into business with, is h*r “ But the bondholders would still have their chance, wouldn’t they, even if he got a majority o f the stock?” “ Well, you haven’t any bonds, have you? First thing I know you’ll be telling me that you’ve got a few barrels of them,” he added, jokingly. He could not help laughing at Porter. “ My dear boy. I ’ ve got every blamed bond V* Fenton sat gaxtng at him in stupefied wonder. He walked around the table and put his hand on Porter’s shoulder. He was trying to keep from laughing, like a parent who is about to rebuke a child and yet laughs at the cause of Its of fense. Porter evidently thought that he had dose an extremely bright thing. “ As F understand you. you have bought all o f the bonds and half of the stock.” “ About half. I ’ m a little— just a little — short.” “ W ill you kindly tell me what you wanted with the stock if you had the bon d er “ Well, I figured it this way, that the franchise was worth the price I had to pay for the whole thing, and if I had the stock control I ’d save the fuss of foreclos ing. You lawyers always make a lot of rumpus about those things, and a receiv ership would prejudice the Eastern mar ket when I come to reorganise and sell oa t.” Fenton lay back in hla chair and laughed, while Porter looked at him a lit tle defiantly, with his hat tipped over his eyes. “ You'd better finish your job and make sure of your majority,” said Fenton. His rage was rising now and he did not urge Porter to remain when the banker got up to do. He was not at all anxious to defend a franchise which the local courts, always sensitive to public sentiment, might set aside. “ I ’ ll see you in the morning first thing,” said Porter at the door, which Fenton opened for him. “ I want you to go to the meeting with me and we'll need a day to get ready.” The lawyer watched his client walk toward the elevator. It occurred to him that Porter’ s step was losing its elastic ity. While the banker waited for the ele vator he leaned wearily against the wire screen of the shaft. Fenton then sat down with a copy of the charter of the Clarkson Traction Company before him, and spent the re mainder o f tha day studying it. Ha had troubled much over Porter’s secretive ways, and had labored to shatter the dan gerous conceit which had gradually grown up in his client. Portsr had, in fact, a contempt for lawyers, though, he leaned on Fenton more than be would admit. Fenton, on the other hand, was constant ly fearful lest bis client should undo him self by hia secretive methods. H e had dlflkulty in getting all the facts out of him even when they were Imperatively re quired. The next morning Fenton was at his office early and sent his boy at one* to ask Mr. Porter to come up. The boy re ported that Mr. Forter had not been at ths bank. Fenton went down himself at 10 o'clock and found the president’s desk closed. “ Where’s tbs bom?” he demanded. “ Mten’ t be dowa this morning,” mid Wheaton. “ Mlm Porter telephoned that he wasn’t feeling well, but ha expected to be dowa after luncheon.” confined to his house by illness, he tfelt the'xpmpnny when w* get reorganised. that Porter must really be very sick; and That mqght to show you what a lot of he naturally turned the fact over in hia confident I ’ve been putting in you all mind to see how this might affect him. this time tn*t you’ve been watching ms The directors cam* in and sat about with run into tbe sohn. clear up to my chin. their hate on, and Wingate, the^starch “ I'm honestly sonq;''— began Wheaton. manufacturer, who had seen Porter's doc “ I had no idea you depending on tor, pronounced the president a very sick me.
