IKE a statue the bulky, motionless figure of
IL Bill McGraw rose from a grder at the
top of the towering skeleton of steel. the wind
whiStling about him and eternity so near that
if he should lose his balance if his foot should
slip on the smooth metal, no human power
could save him.
Most men would have turned sick with diz-
ziness in his position. Even among the hun
dreds OF ironwOrllers on the mammoth struc-
ture there was scarcely one who would have
dared look down standing on such a slim foot
hold at that height; but McGraw could do it.
He could do 1t without even the shadow of
fear or the twitching of a nerve; for he had
never known what imagination meant. He
had never pictured himself hurtling through
space, clutching in wild despair at nothing as
he had seen many man who had made a
misstep on the girders. He had never worried
over what might happen; had seldom even
thought about it.
-Four hundred feet below in the street the
crowds looked like the natives of Lilliput. He
glanced down at them indifferently; then his
gaze wandered over the great stretch of country
before him. the city laid out like a great relief
map, the encircling rivers, and out against
the horizon the dim, gray band of the ocean
1t was a wonderful sight under the brilliant
summer sun; but it had no effect on Bill
McGraw. His thoughts were all concentrated
upon the plugged quarter in his trousers
pocket.
"A cheap skate!" he muttered "All he
needs is a little nerve to be a full-hedged
crook, with his portrait in the ROgues Gal
lery."
1t was Long Hinkey who was the subject
of this soliloquy. After little financial trans
action that morning between McGraw and the
tall spare man who was at this moment climb
ing up from the story just below McGraw had
found himself the possessor of plugged
quarter which he was firmly convinced he had
not had before. But Hinley had disclaimed
all knowledge of the coin and had offered to
stake his reputation on the assertion that it
had never come from him.

perched on the girder, he brooded over the

LETTER FROM TAFT ASSUAGES FEAR
 IN MARKET
Lowest Levels Reached Yes tc-C, nee High Mark
 Last August

NEW YORK, January 25.-The drastic liquidation which was renewed in the stock market today, forced prices to the lowest level since the crest of the speculative wave was touch. ed last August. Declines over night ran between three and seven points in the most active issues.
 The burden of discussion in market quarters was in the danger of the col lision of corporations with the law and the activities of the government. At. tention paid to the subject in dis patches from Washington aggravated apprehension, which began to grow acute yesterday. It was not until a statement, made by President Taft was published, that the bangs of the mar ket were at all assuaged.
 Consideration of the expected div idend action on the United States Steel practically dropped out of sight and the market closed with prices near the lowest.
