The Professional Snyior

1t is now stated on what seems TO bt
the best of authority that j. Picrponi
Morgan does not want to shock the
world too suddenly and therefore is
holding back the announcement of the
fact that he has secured control of the
Union Pacific railroad and that he will
not precipitate wreck and ruin OH the
financial world by announcing il only
by degrees according to a death. bed
promise made to Hartman.
Morgan Is the universal savior.
There never is u crisis but he steps into
the imminent deadly breach aud lays
down his huge body to keep the angry
waves from rushing in and destroying
us. He saved the steel trust, no saved
Wall street, he saved Roosevelt and TIN
country, and Roosevelt wrote him a
testimonial Of rare merit for it. And
now, when Hartman goes to his long
rest, 1t Is Morgan who comes wndding
screnely along and saves ns all over
again.
1t is most gratifying TO know there is
such a man as Morgan alive, watching
over us while we sleep We trcmblc to
think what might not become of the
splendid Union Pacific railroad, and the
rich country II serves. if Morgan should
refuse to gather it as Il chicken under |
his wing. We arc only at q loss to
understand how II was ever possible to
build and operate the Union Pacific in
first place. before Morgan turned !

ion. And how America was discovered.

When Sage died, when Rogers died
when Hartman died, the country may
have been staggered for a moment, but
1t survived, But what are we to do

essional savior, goes toddling down the

CHAPTER XVI.
In Which We Find Treasure.

We began to dream of treasure as
soon as the fierce winds ceased and
the waves fell. The lust for wealth
partially blunted by the requirements
OF hardship and peril, revived within
us the instant nature granted a tenn
porary respite. The memory or the
three million pesos that might be
slowed away below heean to haunt
our imaginations, and the story of it
found uttcrance on our lips. The ne

was heavy enough to conceal precious

more than an hour, handicapped as
we were by the poor light. and several
