together and entered the employ of
Randolph's father at the close of col
birth Beulah Sands, daughter of an
old irginia house, calls on BroWnley
and tells him her father has been prac-
tically ruined by the stock operations
of Renhart. She hopes to otilize her
own money in Wall street in retrieY-
ing her fathers fortunes before his
condition becomes known, and asks for
employment in the office that she may
have an opportunity to better UNDER
stand how her money is invested She
does not want it used in q purely Wall
street gamble, but in the buying and
selling of legitimate securities. Brown
Icy agrees to help her, and falls in
love with her.

CHAPTER Viii.

A number of times during the fol-
lowing year, and finally on the ami
versary of the Sands tragedy, Bob
carried the Exchange to the verge of
panic only to turn the market and
save the Street" in the end. His
profits were fabulous. Already his
fortune was estimated to between two
and three hundred millions, one of
the largest in the world. His name
had become one of terror wherever
stocks were dealt in. Wall street had
come to regard his every deal, from
the moment that he began operations,
as inevitably successful. Now and
again he would jump into the market
when some of the plunging cliques
had bear raid under way, and would
put them to rout by buying every
thing in sight and bidding up prices
until it looked as though he intended
to do as extraordinary work on the
upside as he was wont to do on the
dom. At such times he was the idol
of the Exchange, which worships the
man who puts prices up as it hates
him who pulls them down. Once when
war news flashed over the wires from
Washington and rumor had the cab
met members, senator's, and congress-
men selling the market short on ad-
vance information, when the STAND
ard Oil' banks had put up money
rates to $50 per cent and a crash
seemed inevitable, Bob suddenly
smashed tho loan market by offering
to lend one hundred millions at four
per cent; and by buying and bidding
up prices at the same time, he put
the whole Washington crowd and its
New York accomplices to disastrous
rout and caused them to lose millions.
He continued his operations with in
creasng violence and increasing prof
its up to the fourth anniversary of the
tragedy. On the intervening anniver-
sary | had been compelled by self.
interest and fear that he would really
pull down the entire Wall street struc-
ture, to rush in and fairly drag him
off. But with his growing madness
my influence was waning. Each raid
it was with greater difficulty that |
got his ear.
Finally, on the fourth anniversary,
in panic that seemed to be running
into something more terrible than any
previous he savagely refused to ac-
cede to my appeal, telling me that he
would not stop, even If Randolph &
Randolph were doomed to go down in
the crash. 1t had become known on
the floor that l was the only one who
could do anything with him in his
frenzies, and my pleading with him in
the lobby was watched by the mem
bers of the Exchange with triple eyed
SUSPENSE. When it was clear from his
emphatic gestures and raised voice
for he was in a reckless mood from
drink and madness and took no pains
to disguise his intentions--that
could not prevail upon him, there was
frantic rush for the poles to throw
over stocks in advance of him. Sud
denly, after l had turned from him
in despair, there flashed into my mind
an idea. The situation was desperate.

hanging severed heads?"
Bob Brownloy laughed horrible
ringing laugh as he uttered these aw-
full words Then he beat his hand
down on my shoulders as he said in a
hoarse voice, Jim, but for you
should have had crimps in that jackal
philanthropist's soul by now and in
the souls of his kind. But never
mind. He will keep; he will surely
keep until | get to him. Every day
he lives he will be filter for the crimp-
ing. Within the short two years since
