 It wes astounding to hear this non- sense handled about so seriously. And yet they more than half believed, for they were deep sea men of the old school, and this was in print Thrac- kIes voiced approximately the general attitude.

 Nothing more developed for long time except a savage fight between Pulz and Perdosa. hunted sheep, f1shed, wandered about, always with an escort tired to death before he started. The thought came to me to kill this man and so to escape and make cause with the scientists. My common sense forbade me. I begin to think that common sense is very foolish faculty indeed.
 It taught me the obvious-that all this idle, vaporing talk was common enough among men of this class, so common that it would hardly justify a murder, would hardly explain an un- warranted intrusion on those who em- ployed me. How would it look for me to go to them with these words in my mouth:
 'The captain has taken to drinking to dull the monotony. The crew think you are an alchemist and are making diamonds. Their interest in this fact seemed to me excessive, so I killed one of them, and here am."
 And who are your they could ask.
 'T am a reporter" would be my only truthful reply.
 You can see the false difficulties of my position. I do not defend my at- titude. Undoubtedly a born leader of men, like Captain selover at his best. would have known how to act with the proper decision both now and in the inception of the first mutiny. At heart never doubted the reality of the crisis.
 Even Percy Darrow saw the sur Illness of the mems attitudes and with his usual goodfsense divined the cause

 They growled something about there being nothing to do and explained that the captain preferred to live aboard.
 Don't blame him." said Darrow, "but he might give us a little of his squesky company occasionally. Boys, I'll tell you something about seals.

CHAPTER XVIII.

|0uAT evening I smoked in a
 splendid isolation while the men whispered apart. I had o nothing to do but smoke and to chew my cud, which was bitter. There could be no doubt, however I may have saved my face. that command had been taken from me by that rascal, Handy Solomon. was in two minds as to whether or not should attempt to warn Darrow or the doctor. Yet what could say and against whom should I warn them? The men had grumbled, as men always do grumble in idleness. and had perhaps talked a little wildly. but that was nothing.
 The only indisputable fact could adduce was that I had allowed my authority to slip through my fingers. And adequately to excuse that should have to confess that I was a writer and no handler of men.
 I abandoned the unpleasant train of thought with snort of disgust, but it had led me to another. In tho joy and uncertainty of iivicz had practically lost sight of the reason for ry coming.

The rich in New York have no money. They are on the verge of poverty. loaned Harry Payne Whitney S1,000.- GOO. I loaned money to the New York Central but when the Vanderbilt fam fly applied I refused them. They of- fered me the famous Vanderbilt jewels as security. I do not deal in diamonds.
 A Guardian For Mrs. Vanderbilt.
 "They say that Mrs. Cornelius Van derbilt is going to marry Hungarian count She ought to have a guardian instead. If Mrs. Vanderbilt marries this foreigner, the control of the van- derbilt system of railways will pass out of the family's hands. The millions which Gladys brought to her husband have been shifted to Hungary, and the other millions which her mother will have to give out if she marries her count will be given to Hungary also.
 That leaves the other members of the family in the position of having to purchase railroad securities held by the two women and to pay cash for them. Those foreigners won't take our securities. When they marry us, they demand real money, and they get 1t. Can the Vanderbilt family pay the price?
 Roosevelt is partly to blame for the present financial situation, but not wholly. In my opinion the president has not made good. What has he actu- ally done except wield the big stick?
 'The net result of his efforts has been the imposition of enormous fines that can't be collected

 "All this talk of Taft being the nom. inee of the Republican party Is moon- shine. The real leaders in the party understand the true situation. The scheme is to pose Taft before the coun- try as the presidents choice. He will get all the delegates he can, but he cannot get enough to nominate him in the convention. He knows it, and ev- erybody else on the inside knows it.
 When 1t becomes apparent that he can't carry the convention, Taft will get up and proclaim that Theodore Roosevelt is demanded by the coun- try. or if he does not somebody else in authority will Taft's whole strength will be thrown for Roosevelt. and Ted dy will sweep the convention like a prairie fire. He will have to accept the nomination then. It is beautiful scheme, and it will probably work"

 He held close to my elbow. We got | just as far as the stockade in the bed of the arroyo. The lights we could make out now across the zenith, but owing to the precipitance of the cliffs and the rise of the arroyo bed it was impossible to see more. Handy Solo | mon felt the defenses carefully.
 "A man would 9hink, sir, it was a cannibal island" he observed. "All so tight and tidylike here. It would take ships guns to batter her down. A man might dig under these here two gate logs if no one was against him. Like to try 1t, sir?"
 No" l answered gruffiy.
 From that time on I was virtually a prisoner, yet so carefully was my sur veillance accomplished that I could place my finger on nothing definite Some one always accompanied me on my walks, and in the evening I was herded as closely as any cattle.
 Handy Solomon took the direction Of affairs of my hands. You may be sure he set no very heavy tasks. The men cut a little wood, carried up a few pails of water. That was all.
 Lacking incentive to stir about, they came to spend most of their time lying oa thei- backs watching +he sky. This in turn bred a Iangu1- which is tne sickest most soul asd Iempsr destroy ing aff8iF invented by tks dev'L They could n5t muster up energy enough to wsiz dowE the beach aud back, and ret they were wes.sed tO death of the inactio-.
