them so far. Already they had raised
three families and sent them out into
the Great World. Their home was a
snug nest of grass well hidden In little
hollow under a thick clump OF tall
growing grass, and so far no one had
found it. Both Reddy Fox and Mrs.
Reddy had more than once passed very
near without suspecting 1t.
Danny had cut private little paths
in various directions and as the grass
grew tall he could scamper along these

the sharp eyes OF members OF the
Hawk and Owl families. who always

NEW YORK, May 16.-There

Some of the furniture actually is
tattered. in the office of Jun
ius Morgan, the eldest son, you

All of Morgan's is plain. There
are plenty Of straight chairs. The
floor is stone, the wall simply deco
rated. There is no ostentation,
Morgan's, in a word, is Morgan's
no special dress is needed.
In harmony with the char
acter of their offices, Morgan
and his partners seek to be i'm
Conspicuous. Whatever their
power is, and whatever may
be disclosed by the coming
congressional investigation,
the externals of the firm show
very little:
The House of Morgan is at 23
Wall Street. CIncidently the same

building, built of hugh blocks OF
Tennessee marble, seemingly as
thick as they are wide.

The main story is huge vault
ed room. It's windows are per-
haps 80 feet high, reinforced with
q network of metal. The dome-like
ceiling is moulded in geometric
designs.
To the right as you enter this
large room, and behind plain
glass grill, are rows of desks where
the partners sit, easily visible to
callers. Banking names to conjure
with are there Thomas Lamont,
member of the firm for 23 years,
who generally makes the few pub
lie appearances held necessary for
the firm, and Russell Leffingwell,
former assistant secretary to the
treasury and leading economist,

at banking windows but across
