CHAPTER VII.
sTHE boss Is turned down.

~7HE boss Is turned down.
This startling news flew
lightning fast to every quarter
of the organization and in its
wake spread trail of incredulous
amaze. Every member, from alderman
to "heeler," knew why Horrlgan had
made Bennett mayor. That the latter
should turn against his benefactor
seemed not only black ingratltude, but
something akin to insanity, for it APP
parently spelled political suicide for
the young man.
While neither of the disputants had
repeated the details of the quarrel, yet
those details with many another were
already passing from mouth to mouth
In the mysterious fashion whereby the
closest kept secrets are divulged and
enlarged on. In the financial world.
too the veto came as bombshell.
Borough Street railway stock fell with
n thud that shook more than one colos-
sal fortune. Bennett-central point Of
the whole upheaval-was the calmest
man of all who were involved. He had

lowing the clash. with Horrigan and,
under strict pledge of secrecy. to cx-
plain the whole complicated affair to
that very bewildered young man,

admiration. But why didn't you
