The views of this banker are rep
rcscntativc of opinion throughout
the financial district. Many had OK
pectcd that profits would be taxed
almost to the point of extinction,
and a great majority looked for a
schedule much more severe than
that which Secretary McAdoo pro-
as in other recent sessions, was
relieved TO find that its fears are
likely TO prove unwarrantcd.

Improvement in sentiment found
po reflex on the stock market, which,
as i'm other recent sessions, was
mostly made up Of professional deal
ircs. 4 partial offset to the fayora-
bic impression created by the fact
that the proposed increases in taxa
ton were more moderate than had
lceu expected was Mr.. NcAdoo's
suggestion that the present excess
profits tax should be made rotroac-
tive 50 as TO apply to 1916 earnings.
That caused some selling Of the
harcs which would be affected, but
for the most part it was short sell
ing. More interesting were the
harp declines in shipping shares.
Mercantile Mariac preferred closed
with net loss Of 9ts points, while
the common was off 81, points. At
lantic, Gulf and West Indies lost
"a points and United Fruit 67s
points. The slump in the Marine
issues was attributed to the an
uouncement that the British govern
uent intends TO charter the com
pauy's ships as they return to Brit
ish ports at rates much below those
prevailing in the open market, while
the weakness Of thc other issues was
ascribed to the introduction of a bill
IN the Senate authorizing the gov
eminent to rcqusition all ships,
launches and other vessels for naval
purposes and to the fear that the
construction Of thousands of wooden
ships may cause a drastic decline in
ocean freight rates.

CHAPTER XIII.

1t was a room of silence, save fol
the kissing of the green logs that
burned on the open hearth, and for
the slow movements of Jennings as he
cleared the table. Straight and grim
in his chair, with the newspaper by
his side, Stephen Strangewey sat
smoking stolidly. Opposite to him, al
most as grim, equally silent, sat John.
''Things were quiet at Market Ket-
ton today, then, John?" Stephen asked
at last.
"There was nothing doing" was the
brief reply.
That, for the space of a quarter of
an hour or so, was the sole attempt at
conversation between the two broth
ers. Then Jennings appeared with a
decanter of wine and two glasses,
which he reverently filled. Stephen
held his up to the light and looked at
it critically. Johns remained by his
side, unnoticed.
"a glass for yourself, jennings"
Stephen ordered.
IL thank We kindly, SIR" the old
man replied.
He fetched a glass from the side
board, filled it, and held it respectfully
before him.

glumly. you know i'll"

assented. "We've drunk it together

throat. I threw him back to the place
he had left, and hurt him rather badly,
I'm afraid. Sophy took me home
somehow, and now 1 am here"
She leaned little forward on the
couch. She looked into his face search
ingly, anxiously as if looking for
something she could not find. His lips
were set in hard, cold lines. The
likeness to Stephen had never been
more apparent.
'Iisten ~ she said. "You are Puri-
tan. While admire the splendid self
restraint evolved from your creed, it is
partly temperamental, isn't it? I was
brought up to see things differently,
and I do see them differently. Tell
me, do you love me?"
Glove your? he repeated. "You
know it, Could I suffer the fortunes
of the damned if I didn't? Could I
come to you with q mans blood upon
my hands if I didn't? If the prince
lives, it is simply the accident of fate.
I tell you that if we had been alone I
should have driven the breath out of

He rose slowly to her feet. She
leaned with her elbow upon the man
telpiece, and her face was hidden for
a moment.
"Let me think" she said. IT don't
know what to say to you. I don't
know you, John. There isn't anything
left of the John loved. Let me look
again!"
She swung around.
"You speak of love-" she went on
"Do you know what it is?
Do you know that love reaches to the |
heavens, and can also touch the Meth
ermost depths of hell? If / throw
myself on your knees before you now,

Never line in his face softened. He
ooked at her a moment as he had
ooked at the woman in Piccadilly, into
whose hand he had dropped gold.
"Are you going to tell me that it is
he truth?' he asked hoarsely.
"Think for single moment of that
ceiling which you call love, John!"
he pleaded. Listen! love you. 1t

demanded.
She looked at him without any reply.
The seconds seemed drawn out to an
interminable period. He heard the
rolling of the motorbuses in the street.
Once more the perfume of the. lilac
seemed to choke him. Then she leaned
back and touched the bell

John was shaking in every limb. His
eyes were filled with fierce question

wonder in his face, too.

I wanted to tell you the whole truth,

so far apart. You went away, and

Her lips were warm and her arms held
him almost feverishly.
"In that little church, John, and
quickly-so quickly, please! !" she whis-
pered.
Jennings fastened in to where Ste
phen was sitting alone.
"Mr. Stephen" he cried, whats
coming to us? There's that French
hussy outside, and a motorcar In the
drive, and the chauffeur's asking
where he's to sleep. The woman wants
to know whether she can have the

Through the open doorway they
heard Aline's voice In the hall.
