gracefulness. 1t occurred to the
watcher that familiar as she was with
the habits of wild beasts, never had

always pacing their cages gazing far
over the heads of those who watched
them, or they slept. Even when they
finished q meal of raw meat they
merely licked their chops; there was
no toilet.

toilet. The great cat licked his paws,
drew them across his face; then licked
his beautiful sides, purring, for the
night was SO still and the beast was so

The current of the stream carried
Kathlyn along at a fair pace; all she
had to 90 was to pole away from the
numerous sand bars and such powders
as lifted their rugged heads above the
water.
Round 4 bend the river widened and
sounded with her pole. Something
hideous beyond words arose. far,

snout was thrust quickly over the edge
of the raft. She struck at him wildly

Late Flnancier's Friends Discuss
Reported Moves During Panic.

In an article In the Wall Street Journal
yesterday the statement was made that
the late J. =. Morgan. as one of many
services IN reducing the force Of the 1907
panic, took $4,000, 900 from the United
States Steel Corporation and pegged'
Steel common at a.
IL was asserted also that Mr. Morgan
greatly assisted the financial community
during the panic by enabling the New
Haven railroad to lend large sums TO the
PENNSYLVANIA and New York Central rail
roads and to stand back OF the savings
banks OF Rhode Island and Connecticut.
This he accomplished, II was asserted by
advising the New Haven early In 1907
to borrow largely In France, thus putting
the road In funds.
Mr. Morgan advised this loan negotla-
ton, IL was said after Mr., Melen had
decided that he had no u.s. for tho money
early In the year.
Men very close to the late Mr., Morgan
said yesterday that the story that Mr..
Morgan "pegged" Steel was untrue. One
of his most Intimate associates said he
had never heard that the PENNSYLVANIA
and New York Central railroads and New
England savings banks had been helped
with New Haven money In 1907, but that
II was quite possible that Mr.. Morgan
advised Mr. Mellen TO borrow nancy In
