errand.
Precisely the reverse of the old sit
uation now obtained. AS all Paris had
fought to buy, SO now all Paris fought
to sell. The streets were filed with
clamoring mobs. IL earlier there had
been confusion, now there was pande-
monium. Never was such a scene wit
messed. Never was there chronicled
SO swift and utter reversion of emotion
IN the minds Of a great concourse Of
people. Bitter indeed was the wave of
agony that swept over Paris. 1t began
at the Messasebe, in the gardens Of
the Hotel de Scissor, at that focus hard
by the temple of Fortuna. 1t spread
and spread, edging out into all the re-
moter portions of the walled city. 1t
reached ultimately the extreme con-
fines of Paris. Into the crowded
square which had been decreed as the
trading-place Of the Messasebe sys-
TEN, there crowded from the outer pur-
lieus yet other thousands of excited
human beings. The end had come.
The bubble had burst. There was no
longer any system of the Messasebe!
1t was late in the day, in fact we'll

Of the crash came into the neighbour

brought by servant, who excitedly

BY EMERSON HOUG
MASTER AND MAN.


John Law, idle, preoccupied, sat
gazing out at the busy scenes of the
street before him. The room in which
he found himself was one of suite in
that magnificent Hotel de Scissor,
bought but recently of the Prince de
Carignan for the sum of 100000
liyres, which had of late been chosen
as the temple of Fortuna The great
gardens of this distinguished site were
now filled with hundreds of tents and
kiosks, which offered quarters for the
wild mob of spectators which surged
and swirled and fought throughout the
narrow avenues, contending for the
privilege Of buying the latest issue of
the priceless shares of the Company Of
the Indies.
The system was at it's height. The
bubble was blown to it's last limit.
The popular deii;.TTiiuam had grown to it's
last possible degree.
From the window these mad mobs
Of Infatuated human beings might have
seemed SO many little ants, running
about as though their home had been
DESTROYED above their heads. They
fastened as though fleeing from the
breath OF some devouring flame. Sure
ly the point OF flame was there, at
that focus Of Paris, this focus of all
Europe; and thrice refined was the
quality Of this heat. burning out the
hearts Of those distracted ones.

Indifferent. calm. almost moody, his
cheek against his hand, his elbow on
his chair. What was the call. Henri"

tions," replied the attendant. "'Tis
only as one is able to buy. The ac-
tions OF the last issue, 100000 in all,
were swept away at a breath at $4,000
livres the share"
Ninety times what their face de-
mands," said. Law, impassively.
True, some 80 times" said the
Swiss. "'Tis said that of this issue the
regent has taken over one-third, or
100000, himself. It's this that makes
the price Of the other two-thirds run
the higher, since tits all that the pub
lie has to buy"
Lucky regent" said Law, senten-
tiously. Plenty would seem to have
been his fortune!"
He grimly turned again to his study
of the crowds which swarmed among
the pavilions before his window. Out
side his door he heard knockings and

indianapolis, Ind. March 5.-The on.

tee was in session only two or three min
utes Friday. when there was a motion
for adjournment from the miners that
the miners scale committee and officers
could have a conference. A recess was
taken. There are Indications that con-
siderable has been accomplished By the
leaders on both sides In sitting demands
lswn to . point where something defln-
IT, can be determined. Though the
operators have not made any conces-
sion. 1t is believed by those familiar
with the situation that they will get
down to their ultimatum at once, which
will be for reduction OF not less than
hve cents ton on screened coal and 4
proportionate decrease for all other
mining labor around the mines. The
western Pennsylvania and Ohio opera
tors will not sign scale with reduce
ton less than that, and 1t looks like the
Illinois and Indiana operators would
stand firmly with them.
A joint conference session will not be
held until the sub-scale committee is
ready to submit report. kilograms
from miners all over the country, with
hardly an exception, advise the nation
81 officers to stand firm against a reduce
ton In wages. The Iowa miners, now In
state convention. have telegraphed reso-
lutions declaring against a reduction be-
ing accepted unless it is advised by
President Mitchell
After recess and a conference between
themselves the officers Of the sub-scale
committee submitted what they said
was their ultimatum, cutting their de-
mand In half and asking for two-years'
scale, at "one-half of the 1211s per cent.
advance in wages given last year."
This would make reduction of five
cents ton from the present scale and
decrease in other labor Of about six per
cent. There will be meeting of the
full scale committee later, and, follow
Ing, that, it is expected meeting Of the
miners committee will be called. It is

CHAPTER XII.

THE BREAKING OF THE BUBBLE.
1t was the evening of the day fol-
lowing that on which John Law and
the regent Of France had met in their
stormy interview. During the morning
but little had transpired regarding the
significant events of the previous day.
In these vast and excited crowds, di-
vided into groups and cliques and fac
tons, aided by no bulletins, counseled
by no printed page, there was but lit
tie cohesion of purpose, since there was
little unity Of understanding. The
price Of shares at one kiosk might be
certain thousands Of livres, whereas a
square away, the price might vary by
half as many livres; SO impetuous was
the advance Of these continually ris-
ing prices, and so frenzied and careless
the temper of those who bargained
for them.
Yet before noon of the day following
the decree Of the regent, which fixed
the value of actions upon descending
scale, the news, after fashion Of its
own spread rapidly abroad, and all too
swiftly the truth was generally known.
The story started in a rumor that
shares had been offered and declined
at price which had been current but a
few moments before. This was some-
tang which had not been known In
all these feverish months of the Messa-
sebe. Then came the story that shares
could not be counted upon to realize
over 5000 livres. At that the price of
all the actions dropped in a fash, as
Law had proph esied. A sudden wave
of sanity, a panic chill of sober UNDER
standing swept over this vast multi
tude Of still unreasoning souls who had
traded SO long upon this Impossible
superstition Of an ever-advancIng mar
ket- Reason still lacked among them.

neither he nor the impassive Swiss
paid to these the least attention. 1t

At last there arose yet greater tu-
mutt in the hall which led to the door.

the packed ranks with the cry: "For

stood at the closed door of the man
who was still the real ruler of France.
