ago of my cellar. My fath er laid down
a great deal of port in 1871, when I
was born. I t la a w ine I do not great

who has acted fo r me for some years,
is also I!axon's confidential attorney.
His name never nppears publicly In
Raxon's affairs. H e is engaged mainly
In keeping his client clear of the e f­

had dined w ith me many times, and

him. I f I have doubted his assertions,

have a careful record of every conver­

and he believed me harmless.
Yes,
gentlemen, I know a great deal about
Paul Raxon."
"And you think lie’ll be easy to de-

“No more dangerous man lives in

gravely.

allows me to keep."
W atching the speaker carefully,
Rradney had come to the conclusion
that his host was wholly sane. “ I've
made up my mind," he said, when
Achille had gone.
“ W ell?" snld M llm an.
H e felt If

Although Paul Itaxon had always
professed a great belief In his own
destiny, he had never thought to be
a m ultim illionaire. H e found himself,
suddenly, a national figure. It amused
him to read newspaper accounts of
himself. People assumed that he had
newly come to New York, whereas he
had been for years a power working
through other men.
I t was as an architect's clerk he dis­
covered the g ra ft which was possible
In the building trade.
Among the
group of Illite ra te men who were hold­
ing up big Jobs and. levying blackmail
from contractors In the mime o f Ea-
bor, he soon become a leader.
He
was cautious, educated and supremely
cunning.
The price o f success was
the betrayal o f I,Is benefactor, and he
had not hesitated to make It.
Al the age o f forty-tw o he took his
place w ith the living powers In W all
Street, hated by many, liked by few,
hut despised by none. Publicity over­
whelmed him at last. Mrs. Itaxon and
her fam ily returned from Europe,
where for some years they had lived.
At a large price he purchased GreHt
Rock, form erly the home of Belllngton
of the Traction trust, and he knew he
must fill It with his wife's friends and
entertain In the manner of the very
rich.
A t this period of his life the Idea
of power obsessed him. He did not
want to run the risk of losing w hat he
had gained. He wus not anxious for
any unsavory episodes o f Ills past to
arise.
T here had been many, and
w ifi, niogt women were concerned. He
grew less Intrigued w ith women as the
Idea of senatorial honors forced Itself

"H e 'll he out In live," said Loddon.
"and Jim's dungemca, because lie

"Jim w ill be not In less than that,"
Itaxon retorted.

instance. At heart, of the shyster
law yer type and filled w ith the ideals
of petty graft, a w ealthy benefactor
had bought him a partnership w ith a
respectable Ann and he had to guide
his professional conduct accordingly.
Loddon for the moment was filled
w ith glee at his own fortune.
He
wished Raxon to regard him as an
equal instead of snapping orders at
him. H e ventured to disagree w ith
his patron.
“My success," Raxon said, stopping
him w ith a gesture, "is due to two
things.
One Is a total absence of
pity. Another that I only use men
th a t 1 can crush if they get out of
hand. Jim ('a ffra y was one. You're
another."
H e looked at the groxs,

I pipe, you shall dance; and if you
don't dance to my liking, w hat hap­

you’ll go fur. T ry to be Independent,
or Indiscreet, and I shall break you.’’
"Why, Paul,” Loddon cried, "what's
got Into you? I ’m the loyalest follow er
you ever had, and you know It.”
Raxon smiled.
" I w ant Intelligent

I'm not underestimating
you. You've been useful to me lu a

"Thank you,” said Loddon, almost
bitterly.
lie thought of certain un­
professional things he had done at his
patron's bidding which had. In effect,
delivered him bound hand and foot to
Raxon.
T hat Raxon aspired to a United
States senatorshlp seemed a laudable
enough ambition. Rut that he had a
chance seemed, on reflection, almost
absurd. And yet Raxon was not the
kind of man to delude himself. Lod­
don voiced Ills doubts.
"M cK Im ber Is the party's nominee,”
he observed. “O f course, he'll carry
N'ew Y’ ork city, and they say he’ll get
more votes up-state than any possible
candidate."
“ The party w ill get the votes, not
the man,” snld Raxon.
"But M cK Im ber's the p a rty ’s choice,"
Loddon persisted.
" I t lool r th a t way, doesn’t it?”
Raxon
smiled.
"M cKIm ber's
very
popular.”
"You're keeping something back,"
said Loddon.
" I always do. T h a t’s why I get on.
That's why I ’m going to the senate."
His hands clasped behind him, Paul
Raxon stood a t a window and looked
over the sourd. Loddon talked, but he
did not listen. Raxon saw him self In
a few years as the greatest money
power In America. All hls fu tu re was
carefully planned.
H e was now en
gaged In mapping out a present. He
appreciated the power of women
politically and knew he must appear
as a home-loving man, a man who was
notoriously good to hls w ife and chll
dren. Fortunately, all of them were
a ttractive physically.
H e was Interrupted by Mrs. Raxon
She was a handsome, dark woman
who had only Just discovered that
w hile she had been living abroad her

had
become ' enormously
w ealthy. She had the sense of a per
sonal grievance against him highly de­
veloped. H e could see sfie was pre­
pared fo r battle.
" I w ant a suitable allowance for
myself and the children," she began.
“I want n banking account and my
own limousine and chauffeur.”
She
had thrown down the gage Sn4 waited,
a little frightened, for w h a t was com­

prehenslble. She did not understand
him now. When he smiled it might

biting sarcasm.
