CHAPTER XXI.
In the Pilot House.

Cayley had been right in assuming,
as he did in his conversation with
Jeanne. upon the subject, that Roscoe
and the other people Of the Walrus
had never noticed the ice chimney, nor
suspected the existence of the pilot
house upon the cliff-head. Also, he
had followed correctly the track of
Roscoe's mind in the deduction that
the two latest castaways upon this
land-that is, Philip and Jeanne
must have persisted in the great storm
which began on the night when he
fred the hut, and continued for so
many weeks that he, like them, lost
all trace Of reckoning.
During the storm he had lived in
the cave, much as Philip and Jeanne
had lived in the pilot house on tho
cliff; he had. that is to say, in some
purely automatic fashion, kept on eI-
listing. The mere momentum OF o ma
ture mans vitality makes It hard for
him to die. But when the storm
abated and milder weather came, he
bestirred himself, as Csyley did. and
set about digging q tunnel Of his own
through the great drift which had
blocked the entrance to his cave.
The next time the o came up.
after he had completed the tunnel
from the cave, he set but down tho
beach toward the ruins Of the hut.
1t was not mere curiosity which
attracted him. nor any lurking fear.
but simply the hope Of making some
salvage from the wreckage Of the hut,
or possibly. from the bodies of his two
victims, In Ease he was lucky enough
to ind them. He had no doubt at all
that they were dead.
His pleasure yer the quantity and
condition of the stores he found In
the Toe cave compensated for his
disappointment over not finding the
bodies Of his two latest victims.

California Senator Thinks LaFollette

UNITED Press Leased Wire Seryice1
CHICAGO, Nov. 25-"We must
choose between 'middle.of-the road
policy and man like LaFollette who
has stood for progressive republican,
ism when he had no support. If that
question We're submitted to the peo-
pie IN presidential primary if all
the people could vote on the nominal
ton, have no doubt LaFollette would
be nominated and elected president"
This was the political outlook of
today, as voiced here today by U. S.
Senator John D. Works of California.
The senator advised a meeting of
progressive republicans at a special
dinner.
There are men going about this
country, he said, while his audience
inferred that he meant the president,
saying the initiative and referendum
and recall would be substitute for
representative government. that the
play would be into the hands of the
socialists. / wish to state most pos.
itively that the initiative, referendum
and recall would not constitute any,
such thing. but would form cliques

siye republicans was also advocated
today by the senator Works declar-
ed woman's suffrage equal in import
anee with the initiative, referendum
and recall.
Senator Works also addressed a
meeting of the national league for
medical freedom, criticising the pro-
posed national bureau of health.

100000. The Merritts were SO pleas

10000 shares more at SO share
This $4,000 shares Mr.. Rockefeller
also bought but tie Merritts forgot &c
testify to this heinous crime, commit
ted like the purchase OF the previous
10000 shares, at their solicitation.
Now let us see how wicked these
purchases proved to be. They were
made, as We have said, during the
month of February 1894 I find from
RoclSefeller's books, which lie omen
before me, during the year in which
the Merritts had an option to buy back
their stock at $40 share. Mr.. Rookie
Teller bought over 10000 shares OF
the stock. Twelve thousand of these
shares were purchased from the Mer.
rits themselves at $40 over and above
the 10000 shares spoken of above,
and $4,000 from other people, and In
the open market at an average price
lower than $40.
Let me make it plain, that while
MIR. Rockefeller paid the Merits SIC
for their stock, he bought great
amounts of stock from other people a,
an average price of less than 1910. If
the Merritts felt that they had made
mistake in selling this stock to Mr..
Rockefeller at $40, why did not they
go into the market and recoup them
selves by buying the stock for less
than so, or why did they not at least
exercise their option to buy back from
him al s109''
But it may be asked-why did not
Mr.. Rockefeller extend the option OF
the Merritts from year to year SO as

Merritt's Heated Reply.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.--In a
heated reply to the Rev. Gates state
ment, Don" Merritt tonight said to
the United Press:
1t is not to be expected that man
who made the proposition that the
Rev. Mr.. Gates made to me, would adj
nit it. All this palaver about Mr..
Rockefeller's generosity sounds very
familiar. | have heard it before. 1t
is easily to be seen that this reverend
gentleman is more familiar with
Rockefeller's ledger than with the
teachings of our Blessed Redeemer,
for his mind has for years been fixed
on cash on earth rather than treas
ures in heaven. He indicates no.
where in this yoluminous and canting
effusion any painting desire to appear
before the Stanley committee and ex-
plain under. oath how | misrepresent-
ed him.
There is another thing that he fails
to explain or deny, and that is that
spent few months in New York in
close communication with Gates and
Rockefeller and that during that time
they managed to get possession of
$4,000 shares of stock which Rookie
Teller, according to the Rev. Mr..
Gates a few years later, turned over
to the steel trust, as l recall it, at
about sos share, and returned
penniIess because the few hundred
thousand dollars he loaned me was
as he knew, put back into the proper
ty which he himself assimilated"

to give them whatever advance in
value the years might give their
stock? The reply is because they new
er asked him, but instead began a
baseless and slanderous suit against
him. Two of the Merritts, however,
and several of their friends to whom
Mr.. Rockefeller had also loaned mon.
ey and We're not in position to pay,
We're carried by Mr. Rockefeller year
after year until the stock had come
to be worth par and above, and they
are now rich men.
In 1894, their stock sold for $40 OF
under. BY 1901, Mr.. Rockefeller paid
as high as par for the stocs,"
Gates says that the stock was low

in 1891, because millions were re-
quired TO develop the property He
says that the stock rose to par be-
cause Mr.. Rockefeller gave the
/ whole enterprise his financial back
1 ing"
There remains one further word,
said Gates. MIR. Merritt says that we
asked him to compromise the law
suit Here again, as usual, he states
precisely the reverse of the facts. 1t
was his own lawyer that asked US to
compromise the suit. His lawyer. Mr..
Washburn, came to our representative
in Duluth, Mr.. Cotton, and asked that
negotiations might be begun for com
promise
Gates gave copies of kilograms III,
dicating that the Merritt lawyers ask
ed that compromise be arranged
and that reply was sent refusing
any settlement until the charges OF
fraud and Misrepresentation were
withdrawn and written statement
agreed upon"
THE sum of the whole natter.
Gates concluded, sis as follows. Dur
ing the panic of 1893 Mr.. Rockefeller
loaned to various members and their
friends in Minnesota large sums of
money. Never in any instance were
these call or demand loans, nor did
Mr.. Rockefeller press them for pay
ment. Two of the Merritts and their
friends asked extensions to these
loans for several years. The extern
sions were granted, their stock be-
came valuable, and they are now rich
men. The Merritts would have been
today in the same position but for
the fact of having brought baseless
and slanderous suit against Mr..
Rockefeller, they were not in posi-
ton to ask for an extension beyond
the year given them, and they did not
ask, nor did they retract the charges
until two years later. When they did
retract We gave them $525,000, which
added to the money previously paid
them, amounted to SIS share on all
the stock which they had sold. which
was its then market price, and
amounted in substance to an extern
sion OF the option for the two inter
vening years of the lawsuit"
