on his own and follows hanging to the

a snow drift and riSea on. Half-frosen
he stumbles Into the railroad station just
as the train bears the woman away.
Twenty-flve Vears later, this man. George
Gormly, Is a multl-mlMlonalre In New
York. He meets Eleanor Haldane, a
beautiful and wealthy settlement worker,
and co-operates with her In her work.
Gormly becomes owner of a steamship
line and finds himself frustrated In pier
and track extension plans bjr grafting al-
dermen. backed by the Gotham Traction
Company. An automobile accident brings
the Haldanes to his country home. Gorm-
ly announces that he will be mayor of
New York and redeem the city from cor-
■ ruptlon. Mr, Haldane In a long desired
Interview with Gormly. makes an Indirect
proposition to compromise the tight which
the latter has been waging In the news-
papers against the Gotham Traction com-
pany. and which Haldane Is suspected of
being the head. Gormly boldly announces
bis plan of campaign to Haldane. Gormly
rides to Haldane's place, carrying word
of the auto accident. The next morning
he refers to the ride of the night before
as mild compared to one he experienced
in his boyhood days. The papers an-
nounce his candidacy for mayor. The po-
Ifflcnl declaration or the merchant prince
produced a tremendous sensation. The

Lifter, Habberley, and Connell will
get their forces In line. And 1 think
that's all.”
“Not quite, Mr. Haldane," said Lif-
fey.
“What else?"
“You'll git the barrel open for the
necessary expenses of the cam-
paign ?“
“Quite so,” said Haldane, dryly.
“You may depend upon us to do what
Is proper; eh, gentlemen?"
Van Slyke and McHonald nodded.
“I think we’ve done a pretty good
night’s work," said the district attor-
ney, rising to hts feet.
“Don’t go yet,” said Haldane. “We
must fix up the slate first, and that
will be all.”
It was a half-hour later when the
last one departed from Ihe house.
Haldane was quite aware of the con-
ditions under which his fortune was
being Increased and his power extend-
ed. He had been brought In contact
with the naked reality of the situa-
tion a great many times; but It
seemed to him that never before had
it presented Itself In so hideous and
unattractive a guise as on that night.
The financier was hardened. His con-
science, while keenly alive In other
directions. In matters concerning poli-
tics and the people was seared and
indurated. Hut what had been said
and what he had discussed that night
had sickened him.
llaldane felt quite lonely, quite old,
as he sat there In the small hours of
the morning, his cigar goue out,
musing over the situation. Ho pulled
himself together at last. The battle
was not lost. The enemy had not won.
•▼•ry direction. ’ Before the enemy
realised it, ample tl^pe had been se-
cured in every possible assembly
room and there were nightly meetings
all over the city.
In the Oormiy store itself was a
great auditorium in which free con-
certs, lectures, and * Vntertainmenta
had been given for the employes and
patrons of the store. This auditorium
had outside entrances and could be
completely cut off from the other
bifkinsss. Every afternoon he assem-
bled in the auditorium the workers
and speakers, and every afternoon
there was the freest possible discus-
sion of the leeuee, of what was to be
said In the speeches of the night, of
the plnces to be covered. The man
showed a genius for leadership ami
direction that was amazing He de-
veloped a power of auoclnctly pre-
senting the facts, which in large
measure he was able to communicate
to his followers.
Livingstone Haldane’s example had
been followed by not a few young men
of fortune and position. It became In
a certain sense among a certain set
the fashion to campaign for Gormly.
Automobiles of all sorts were avail-
able for transporting -speakers, and
classes and social distinctions were
wiped out In the greater Issues in-
volved. Hy theBe methods what was
picturesquely described In the city pa-
pers as a whirlwind campaign was
Inaugurated.
It must not he supposed that the
opposition was Idle; by ho means.
Never had ltB activities been so great.
Its energies so manifestly put forth.
It had welcomed with Joy the news of
the refusal of Gormly to become the
candidate of the minority party. Llf-
fey had at once decided In his own
mind that that settled the lBsue. Even
farther sighted men like Rutherford
were of the same opinion. Haldane,
alone, the wisest, shrewdest, and
ablest of the group, was not con-
vinced, and under his vigorous though
secret urgings the ring redoubled. Its
efforts to beat the man.
At the proper time the proposition
from the party In power to maffe a
combination with the outs was sprung
upon the public. It was hailed on one
side as an evidence of the falrnesfc
of the party in power and the Sachem
society, which many people imagined
needed no alliance of that kind. It
J
afipirationn and sidetrack
candidacy. The younger Haldane Is pro-
posed rh an opposition candidate and the
whole machinery of the city's detective
force Is to he Involked to dig up some-
thing damaging to Gormly. Haldane,
lr.. refuses the nomination and an-
nounces that he will support Gormly.
CHAPTER IX.—Continued.
“What does It cover?" asked the
mayor.
“It covets pretty much every avail-
able route by which we can connect
the ends of the traction company.”
"How much territory?"
“Oh, a mile or a mile and a half, 1
should say; but every possible right of
way Is included In the franchise."
"And If we don’t get It?”
"Somebody else will get It, of
course. He will build the conneetlons,
nnd hold us up for anything that he
wants.” v
"Hut It will be no good to anybody
else without what we’ve got,” suggest-
ed Van Slyke. ff
“True; but we have got several hun-
dred millions Involved and can’t adopt
a do-nothing policy. Probably ten
nilllions or even less will £over the
expenses required by rebuilding un-
der the old or new franchise, and that
ten million has uo by the throat.”
“It should be easy for live hundred
millions to freeze out ten,” said
Rutherford.
“Under other circumstances it wfltold
not be at all difficult,” answered Hal-
dane; “but the people qre to be con-
sidered Ija this case. This road was
bnllt as a public convenience and,
gentlemen, It has to be run."
"This is a hell of a fix for men ns
•mart ns you to git yourselves In!"
said Liffay. "As I take it, we can
secure the franchise or we can mako
•ts future grant the Issue of the cam-
paign; and if we win, pass it then;
md if we fall, take our medicine."
"You’ve stated It exactly.”
"For myself. I’m In favor of grab-
bing the franchise now,” said the
boss. "It means money. Money’s
what we’re here for. The object of
politics Is money for the crowd that’s
in. The aim of the crowd that’s out
Is to git In so they can git the
money. With money we can buy
votes; with votes we can get office;
■with office and money we can get
immunity from the consequences.
Even if we’re beaten by the mayor,
we’ll still have the district attorney,
we’ll still hnve the police force. I’ll
still be here; so will you, Mr. Hal-
dane And therefore, rather’n take
any risk, I move that the franchise be
renewed ns soon as it expires, and
that the grant be made to the Gotham
Freight Traction company. I’d rather
have something substantial than play
for a chance any time. I guess wo
wouldn't suffer any therefore, no mat-
ter what happened, Resides, all It’d
mean would be, a wait for four years.
These reform movements always get
tired of themselves, and then one or
the other of the old parties comes in.

"I am inclined to believe that much
of Mr Llffey’* contention Is sound."
•aid Van Slyke at last.
"Well, gentlemen," said Haldane.
’ wliat do yon a^ think about It?”
"Let's get what w« can,” said the
mayor,
"And keep all we've got,” added
"Very w«u then" aald Haldane, "so

and before that came about there
would be a struggle which would beg-
gar description. The cards Beemed to
be In his hands, or in the hands of the
ring of which he was chief. No more
experienced players ever sat at a
game than those associated with him.
They ought to win; but would they?
Haldane was by no means certain.
CHAPTER X.'
The Voles of the People It Heard.
Oormly’s refusal to accept the In-
dorsement and become the nominee
of the outs created a great sensation.
It waa an evidence, which by and by
even the stupid could apprehend, that
Oormiy literally meant what be said
was considered as testimony to the
fact that the party In power had noth-
ing to conceal, since It admitted the
outs to Its councils, and that It wad
sincerely desirous of giving New York
a business administration In which all
factions and parties should be repre
xented. There was truth In the con-
tention, too. The only faction or party
that would not be aepresented by this
alliance would be the common people.
Wiser heads, however, realized that
altruistic methods were Inconsistent
entirely with the real spirit of either
party and saw In the alliance a con-
fession of weakness. And the editorial
contingent of the Gormly papers
seized upon this Idea and made the
most of It. In the beginning. Gorm-
wben he declared that he waa to be j Jy* advertisements. Including bla po^
an absolutely Independent candidate,
tied to no faction, bound by no party,
entirely free and unfettered.
The men who rallied to bla support,
while aa Innocent aa babes In the prac-
tical polities affected by Llffey and
Iteaaoti, were nevertheless um-u of
abounding zeal, keen Intelligent *. and
high quality Nor were j|,. *ork*r»
that gathered round the i. leader
t ntireiy from the social act .and •-ircie
iitlca) manifestos, had be$n printed
In every paper In the city They were
paid for as other advertisements are
- and why not? Hut the Ha* hem so-
ciety had put the screws on certain
Journals which owed much to Its Inftu-
«nee. Ulid because of Ibis pressure
they bad summarily refused any more
of Gormly* unique proclamation*
They prof wand themselves entirely
ready In print bis bueiw* as advert tee
the party in power, and those that
were favorable to the new candidate.
Incidentally, nothing that ha’ could
have said or done could have so in*
creased the business of bla store I
His business rivals and associates In-
deed suggested, and the suggestion
waa quickly aelsed upon by the ad-
ministration papers, that the -whole
thins wan a clever advertising dodge,
and that Gormly waa simply using his
candidacy to boom bla business. There
was no satisfactory answer to thle
argument, which was one of the beat
that oould have been devised by the
opposition, and it waa harped upon
Immensely, although their leader waa
vigorously Justified from this charge
by hia army of fighters.
The expenses of the campaign were
enormoua. Not one cent wau paid out
for bribery or for the purpose of In-
fluencing votes In any improper way;
but the hiring of halls, the payment
of the expenses of meetings, organiza-
tion. transportation, printing, salaries,
and s*v on aggregated an extraordinary
sum. Even Oormiy himself had not
realized how great these expenses
would he; but he paid them without
blenching. His resources were vast.
He put at the disposal of his candi-
dacy all the accumulations and earn-
ings of twenty-five years. He snw
that by the time the vote was taken,
his ready money would be expended.
Of course, he would still have his
great business, which would be entire-
ly unencumbered; but everything else
would go.
He still kept to his plan of printing
every week sworn statements of his
expenses, challenging the other party
to do the same. The reason the so-
ciety did not publish its expense ac-
count was not because it was ashamed
of the amount, for it was vastly great-
er than wliat Gormly expended. They
had nearly as many expenses us he.

miles from 8t. Louis to Chicago with
only two intermediate stops, nnd in
aetual flying time of 6 hours uud 43
minutes, Monday Harry N. Atwood Of
ltostou believes he has set a pace
which will result in his establishing
a new record on his flight by aero-
J plane from Ht. Louis to New York
and Boston.
As It Is, Atwood appears to have
broken the American record for a sin-
gle day’s flight. The host previous
American record was made by At-
wood himself, when he flew 148 miles
from Atlantic City to Baltimore, July

they disbursed an Immense bribery
and corruption fund through Llffey, ;
Connell, Habberley and Henson.
Again and again were Haldane and
his associates called upon for remit- j
lances, which were Invariably forth-!
coming. There was no possibility of :
‘refusal. Failure to win a victory
would mean financial ruin to many of
them. Fortunately for him, it did not j
mean so much to Haldane, although j
ills great fortune would be seriously j
Impaired by defeat. Most of the
others, however, had turned over i
* verything thut they possessed, and
pledged their credit aa well, to the
vast syndicate of which he was the j
head. Indeed, he and Van Slyke would !
be th.e only ones not totally ruined
by the election of Gormly. Conse-
quently they paid nnd paid and paid, |
protesting in their hearts but shutting I
their teeth grimly and handing out i
the cash, which was (Jlsbursed ♦<> Ills !
best udvantfCge hy Llffey and Benson.
Gormly himself spoke every night
somewhere, and the crowds that greet j
ed him were enormous. Meanwhile j
every detective in the employ of the
city, and all others who could ho |
suborned, were concentrating their
efforts on Gormly's past and pfetfent.
He could not tnke a step outside of
his office without being shadowed. It
was not difficult for spies to mingle
with the crowd of buyers In Ills store
and acruJJnizo every person who en-
tered his private room. They had
so far discovered nothing. Gormly
had lived an absolutely clean, upright, I
honest., hardworking life sliue lie
landed In New York. They did not
find out where he came from or even
where ho was born. The only possible i
clue they had was the statement that
he had once been In th,e west, with
which Haldane had supplied them.
Men had scoured the principal' cities
of the west; but nothing had been
learned. Connell was In despair. 11o ;
and Llffey and Benson had again and
again been on the eve of determining
upon the manufacture of some degrad-
ing or incriminating story which
would at least serve their purpose. It
would not be difficult to get witnesses
to such iin endeavor; but it would bo
highly dangerous to resort to such an
expedient, and they were still hesi-
tating arid undecided.
About this time the disputed fran i
chlse expired. A resolution waa Im- i
mediately Introduced In the board of
aldermen at the city hall granting a
renewal of It to the Gotham Freight |
Traction company Every move in
the game was watched, and the reso- j
lution had scarcely been read and re- j
ferred to a committee when It was
communicated to Gormly. The next j
day the Gormly papers rang with the j
charge that the city fathers Intended
to give away Its most valuable remain-
ing public franchise to the Gotham
Freight Traction company.
At the next meeting, despite the
furious protests of the Gormly party,
the resolution was put upon Its pas-
sage. Oormiy bore played his great-
est political card. Attended by a
body of friend#, he presented himself
at the council chamber and forced ad-
mission. When the resolution re-
newing the franchise waa about to be
voted upon, as a citizen of New York
deeply Interested In the ramtter he de-
manded to l>e heard Before permis-
sion was either granted or refueed
hy the astonished presiding officer,
Gormly drew from hts pocket a piece
of paper Amid th*- deepest slleooa
he held It up and said

Beaumont, who in the Parls-Romo con- |
test covered 401 miles In u single day,
but In this Instance he made three
landings, while Atwood landed only
twice. r
Atwood, In a Burgess Wright bi-
plane, left St. Louis at 8:05 a in. Ho
landed in Chicago at 6:19 p. rn. His
total time between St. Louis and Chi-
cago, counting the delays occasioned
by the two stops, was 10 hours and
I I minutes, but his actual time In the
uir was 5 hours and 43 minutes.
Atwood's descent Into Chicago was
thrilling Sailing in from the south-
west, a lone speck in the clouds, he
made directly for the downtown Uls- I
trict, and for a time hovered until no-
ticed in {ho distance over the sky-
scrapers Thousands of people were I
crowded at the lake front intent upon j
the flights of the aeroplanes compet-
ing In ihe aviation contents. Atwood )
appeared on the scene as a stranger, I
unheralded and unexpected, only by !
a few.
Suddenly the crowd noticed the on- I
coming stranger and a voice shouted,
"That s Atwood, from St. Louis" Im-
mi-dlatcly the vast assembly was In
an uproar Two or three of the air
men sailed out to-meet him.
Coming steadily onward, Atwood
steered over the aviation field and
circled around it, while several of
the machines listed In the moot fol-
lowed hentnd as an escort. Once j
around AZwood, he descended grace- I
lwily, touching the ground for tin*
first lime since his slop at Pontiac, '
111 , ninety one miles from Chicago.
