The roar from the street swelled
louder and louder In front of the
building where Allan had his city of
fice was a large placard announcing
the prices of real estate in the Tunnel
City—by the front foot on the scores
of streets that were laid out on paper,
and by the acre in the outskirts. They
were enough to stagger the hardiest
real estate man In the world, and the
tumult attested the Indignation of the
professional traders
"Have you heard from sny of them
directly?” Inquired Hives with a grin.
"Only a few," smiled his friend.
"They didn't seem pleased. Judging
from their remarks over the phone
The consensus of opinion seemed to
be that I ought to be in the Insane
asylum, and if not I would certainly
wind up in the penitentiary."
Rives laughed and rose to go.
The Main Mogul.
“Don’t leave yet, old man." urged:
Allan "The works can get along
for another hour without you. Mutrle
will be here presently, and It would
be Just as well for you to be around.”
“Yes? Who Is Mutrle?” inquired
Rives.
"He's the main mogul of the Real
Estate Exchange. He called up just
before you came in and said he' 1 be
down within an hour if I could see
him. I told him to toddle right along
and Hello!” A voice issued out of
a square box at his elbow.
“Mr. Mutrle to see you, sir.”
"Tell him to come in,” said
pressing a button In the side of the
little box, which transformed it Into
an active telephone.
Mr. Mutrle proved to be a white-
haired man of about 45. with a thick,
close-cropped white mustache and
light blue eyes He seemed to regard
life as ii serious business, especially
when It Impinged upon renl estate.
Allan shook hands with him and
introduced Rives as his "friend and
colleague, who is in actual charge at
Tunnel City.”
‘‘You have certainly torn up n lot of
ground, Mr. Rives," remarked the real
estate king, pleasantly. “I have been
down to look you over several times
recently."
"Yes. I think we are making con
siderable headway," said Rives. “We
expect to begin the actual boring next
week."
"Indeed!" murmured Mr. Mutrle
and smiled slightly. Neither Rives
nor Allan understood the tone or the
smile at the moment, but it irritated
both. Allan stirred a little impatient
ly and Mr. Mutrie turned to him.
"I have been marking down your
prices as announced thin morning.” he
said courteously, "on the plot of the
city with w hich you supplied me "
“Yea?”
“Yes." Mr Mutrle’s tone was faint
ly ironical. "1 think you can hardly
be serious. Mr. Allan.”
Allan leaned back In his chair and
tapped the edge of his desk with his
pencil.
"It’s very decent of you *0 feel that
way about It. Mr. Mutrle.” .lie re
turned pleasantly, “hut I didn't want
to be hoggish. 1 suppose 1 could get
more for the land in the long run. but
I would much rather let everybody in
now* and start things going.”
Mr. Mutrie bit into his thick white
mustache for a moment
“Leaving pleasantries aside." he
said with some acerbity, "you don’t
really mean to attempt to get those
prices for land In your city?"
Allan continued to tap the desk. ‘ I
not only mean to attempt to get them,
but 1 will get them.”
"From whom?” demanded Mr. Mu
trie, controlling himself with an ef
fort.
Hi§ Plan.
"Oh. anybody that wants to pav
them." Ulan shrugged his shoulders
indlffet ntlv. "1 am going to let in
anybody that will help boom things
there at these prices and then I'm
going to jump the price.”
Mr. Mutrle stared at him Rnd swal
lowed hard, but when he spoke again
he had recovered his first suavity.
“I Have just been djinq some fig
uring,” he remarked. consulting^ a
piece of paper. “You bought that
land for somewhere between seven
and ten million dollars. You have
held it for less than six months. At
the prices you are now charging you
figure to make about a million dol
lars a day for every day you have
held it.”
Allan nodded "Your figures coin
cide with mine to a remarkable de
gree,” he said coolly. "I figured that
T ought to make about that on the
deal That is why 1 am going to
boost the price pretty soon if the land
doesn’t go fast enough."
"Surelv you arc not serious." pro
tested Mr Mutrie. and his manner
w«m almost patronizing.
"1 most certainly am."
d«vls*d means to put ft to work where .
each dollar of the millions might earn
a few’ cents before It was .swallowed
up in the hole that Allan was driv- |
ing through the heart of the earth. 1
"It’s wonderful,” the latter told
Rives, enthusiastically. "You can’t
believe how well the w’orld under- J
I stands what this thing means and
I how certain It Is!”
"My dear chap,” returned Rives
with a cynical laugh, “you’re on the
wrong track altogether.”
“What do you mean?” demanded the
engineer.”
They were sitting on the veranda
of the house at Tunnel City overlook
ing the sea, where the whltecaps
glistened and gleamed in the moon
light. Rives looked out across the
heaving waste and laughed again.
“You engineers arc supposed to
study forces, but in this you have Ig
nored the greatest force in the world.”
"What Is that T'
“Fear! ”
"Fear!” echoed Allan, dumfounded.
"I don’t get you at all.”
"It’s very simple,” Rives assured
him. “Men fear tw r o things above all
others—death and poverty. Bold
ness triumphs over death, when any
thing does, and wealth over poverty.
Your tunnel scheme is bold and prof
itable and they admire it. Unable to
triumph themselves, they want to
conquer vicariously. They read the
newspapers to get a thrill out of other
people’s experiences because they
don’t dare the experiences themselves.
They haven’t the money nor the cour
age.”
“But,” objected Allan, “they must
helleve in this thing or they wouldn’t
put what money they have Into it.”
"They believe in It because they’re
afraid not to,” retorted Rives. “I am
Just beginning to see how big this
thing is,” he went on soberly. "All
that has held back the upheaval—the
social revolution—Is this fear, this
clinging to the little they have and
getting the sensation of having much
by reading about it In the newspapers.
“This tunnel.’’ he went on as Allan
listened in dead silence, “is. so far as
you know, going oaiy to London. God
only knows how far it will go toward
shaping the destiny of our civiliza
tion. You have started a panic, with
a reverse movement. Instead of hoard
ing because they are afraid, people
are investing because they are afraii.
None of them understand, hut all >f
them dimly feel that everything In the
world is going U oe more or less in
timately connected w’ith this schema,
and if they don’i get on the right side
of the fence, they will be crushed.”
“That I believe is true,” said Allan,
with faint pride.
“But how’ about those that can’t get
In—and those that may get in to their
sorrow? The survival of the most
unscrupulous is not necessarily the
law of the universe because it is the
ruling spirit of our age. The w’orld
will be paying tribute to the tunnel
company, and the world may wake up
and ask why—and ask why about e.
lot of other things.”
“I don’t think -the world is going to
kick over being benefited,” returned
Allan.

‘You don’t blame me, do you, Jack?” she said quietly. “No,” he replied almost gruffly, ‘‘I don’t.’
WHAT HAS GONE BEFORE
The story opens with Hives, who is in charge of the technical work
ings of the great tunnel front America to Germany, on one of the tunnel
trains, with Baermann, an engineer, in charge of Main Station No. 4. They
are traveling at the rate of 118 miles an hour. Rives is In love with
Maude Allan, wife of Mackendrick Allan, whose mind first conceived the
great tunnel scheme. After going about 250 miles under the Atlantic Ocean
Rives gets out of the train Suddenly the tunnel seems to hurst There
is a frightful explosion. Men are flung to death and Rives is badly wounded.
He staggers through the blinding smoke, realizing that about 3.000 men
have probably perished. He and oher survivors get to Station No. 4
Hives finds Haermann holding at bay a wild mob of frantic men who w'ant
to climb on a work train somebody shoots Haermann, and the train slides out.
The scene is then changed to the roof of the Hotel Atlantic. The greatest
financiers of the country are gathered there at a summons from C. H.
Lloyd. "The Money King.” John Hives addresses them, and introduces Al
lan Mrs. Allan and Maude Lloyd, daughter of the financier, are also pres
ent Allan tells the company of his project for a tunnel 3.100 miles long
The financiers agree to hack him. Allan and Hives want him to take charge
of the actual work. Hives accepts. Hives goes to the ParkfClub to meet Wlt-
tersteiner. a financier At Columbus Circle new-* of the gr«at project is being
flashed on a screen. Thousands are watching it. Mrs Allan becomes a lonely
and neglected woman and is much thrown in the company of Rives.
Now Go On With the Story.
M R. MUTRIE appeared to re
flect. and then he began on a
new tack.
"From what I have been able to
gather. Mr. Allan. I am forced to have
the greatest respect for you as an en
gineer,” he said suavely. “I have no
doubt that you believe you can build
j this tunnel, and If the thing is pos-
I slble no doubt you can do it. But a
I real estate enterprise is a vastly dif-
| ferent proposition from engineering
: It follows certain fixed lines. There
ire certain accepted mediums of mar
keting. and without these no consid
erable venture can be brought to a
i successful close.”
New Rules.
1 know,” nodded Allan, briskly.
That always has been the rule.
You real estate men have gathered
1 in most of the profits. But Just as
there is no rule to guide me In bulld-
1 mg this tunnel, the real estate issue
j is too big to he guided by the regu
lar rules You traders can have it
at my price 01 stay out of the mar-
j ket—without offense,” he added
t ourteously
You know, Mr. Allan," returned
J the operator, slowly, his eyes nar-
I rowing, The world ha? no assurance
that your tunnel will ever be com
pleted. While I have no doubt what
ever of your good faith, the buying
public- which is largely guided by us
—has no definite assurance that your
tunnel project is not a gigantic hoax
for the sole purpose of pulling off a
great real estate swindle."
It was a shrewd flank attack and
one that had never occurred to Allan
or Rives Allan was completely con
fused for an instant, and Rives’ first
impulse, controlled with difficulty,
was to throw the white-haired fox out
of the office. Then Allan recovered
his mental balance and laughed.
"My dear Mr. Mutrie,” he said at
last, not taking pains to conceal that
the Interview was rapidly becoming
unpleasant, "the best answer to that
is that while I have never seen you
before this morning and had no Idea
of ever taking the trouble to see you
or sell you anything, here you are try
ing to trick or browbeat me into sell
ing land for less than it is worth.
What He Thought.
“You know and I know.’’ he went
on quietly, “that this land will within
a few years be worth considerably
more than I am asking for it now.
You know that this tunnel is on the
level and that I and the men who
have indorsed me are certain that I
can build it and that therefore some
of the world’s largest and busiest cit
ies are bound to spring up around the
entrances.”
"It may be so.” conceded the expert
in a manner that fully conveyed the
Impression that he did not believe it.
“That being the case." concluded
Allan, “you are at liberty to buy this
land at my price or not buy it—just
as you choose. And L guess that’s
about all. If you will excuse me—I
am a very busy man ”
"What do you think?” inquired
Rives after the boss of the real es
tate brokers had departed.
’Think!” snorted Allan. “I think
he’ll get on the band wagon or be
run over. They have probably framed
It to stay out of the market and
bring my price down, but they can’t
win at that game. The land is worth
every cent and more than we are ask
ing for it, and it’s bound to sell
whether they want it to or not.”
Rives switched the conversation
over to other matters connected with
construction and some changes he
contemplated making in the person
nel of his staff. Allan signed tele
grams, answered phone calls, and ad
vised and suggested tfi between
breaths for about an hour. Then
Rives announced that he would have
to start back.
"I want to take you with me,” he
said.
| "To Tunnel City?”
"Yes." replied his friend gravely
I "I told Maud I’d bring you back with
me to-night If I had to do it by
) force.”
Allan frowned slightly at his piled
! up desk, looked at his watch and
I then up at Rives.
"(tan you wait about fifteen min-
1 utes? I guess I’d better go, though
| I haven’t got time. You can have
tne motored back so as to get here
by 7:30 in the morning?”
! "It’ll be easy—that or a special
train.”
"All right, then,” agreed Allan.with
hesitation, his eyes still on his desk.
"I haven’t seen Maud and the little
one for a month, It seems to me. But
I certainly hate to leave this pile of
work! Well, I "
The phone rang Ha answered it
and winked at Rives as he^caught the
first words.
“Certainly. Come right along," he
said. "It’s Mutrie.” he laughed tri
umphantly. "He has been commis
sioned to buy a thousand feet of
wharf front for the Transoceanic peo
ple. What did I tell you? Oh.’’ he
exclaimed as he noticed that Rives
was • still standing. "I told him to
come along. It’ll probably be an hour
or so of a job. and others are likely
to come through, so I better not try
to go with you.”
"And Maud?”
“Well," hesitated Allan, “you ex
plain it to her. old man. She’ll under
stand; and tell her I’ll be down in
a few’ days at the latest "
Rives looked at him curiously and
in silence for a few moments.
"All right,” he said quietly. "So
long!”
Raising $3,000,000,000.
\ ND now’ a new power was felt
in the affairs of the great tun
nel project. To the w’orld at
large Allan was still the big figure,
the tremendous force that brought
forth the mighty plan and was driv
ing it ahead. But those back of the
scenes felt a new hand on the con
trolling levers. This new power was
Money and its tangible form was Sid
ney Wolf.
This man was Lloyd’s other s»elf.
But a few years before he had been
obscure. Then he found himself
across the board from the terrible
money vulture in a minor chess game
of finance and had played his hardest.
Lloyd admired his skill and made him
his chief of staff.
His name originally had been Salo
mon Woldsohn. In his lean days in
Berlin. Moving to London in in
creasing prosperity, he had become
Sidney Wolfson, and in New Y’ork he
had finally appeared as Sidney Wolf.
He was not a genius of finance. He
was a master general of dollars,
which Is a different thing. As Allan
knew’ the working capacity of a drill,
so this man knew’ the working ca
pacity of a dollar. He could not
dream great visions of finance, but
when shown the field of a campaign
and placed at the hyead of millions he
was an invincible fighter.
From a dog-poor student Wolf had
become a multi-millionaire while still
a comparatively young man. He had
made money his one aim, and was
bitterly disappointed when he found
out that its possession was not the
recipe for content. He was black
haired, thick-lipped and a trifle stout,
with fishy eyes and a heavy voice—
the type of man particularly repulsive
to the men with whom he most de
sired to associate. He hated Allan,
not because Allan underrated his abil
ity or lacked respect for his money
skill, but because in all the months of
their association in the planning of
the financial campaign Allan had
never treated him as a social ac
quaintance. He had never asked him
to lunch or dinner, he had never in
troduced him to Mrs. Allan or inti
mated that he might be desirable as a
guest at his home even in a vague,
non-committal way. Rives treated
him with formal politeness, and Al
lan’s other acquaintances ignored
him. ,
Allan. hail-fellow-well-met with
half the underlings about the offices
of the tunnel company, invariably
addressed the money master as "Mr.
Wolf." The "Mr.” grated every time
Wolf heard it, for he knew it was not
a mark of respect. He resented Al
lan’s familiarity with the others, a
familiarity that never lessened their
respect for him or the promptness of
their obedience. Wolf was obeyed
with cold precision, Allan with cheer
ful alacrity.
The First Trick.
With this type of man hatred finds
its expression in only one direction *
an assault on the pocketbook. His
first trick against the engineer was
so adroitly planned and executed that
Allan and Rives were forced to ad
mit the Justice of the resul , though it
mulcted them of a large share of
their profits in the real estate trans
action. Wolf sold the rights to all
mineral deposits produced In the bor
ing to the Pittsburg Smelteries Cor
poration for $50,000,000. He then rep
resented, rs indeed Allan had planned
that the waste could be made into
real estate along the coast front, and
the directors speaking through Lloyd,
indorsed this plan, the proceeds to go
to the common treasury. To avoid
being cut off. Allan was forced to let
his own holdings go into the common
pool, in which he had only a minor
share and Rives none at all.
I N the meantime Wolf perfected the
plans for floating the stock. The
company was capitalized at $15.-
OOO.flftO.OOO. and it was decided that
the first issue should call for $3,000,-
000.000 at the par value of the stock
—also that it should not be sold for
less than par. Allan and Wolf agreed
that no more money could be safely
demanded of the public until the
r'T’XHKRE are those of perfect fig
ure who declare that when girls
refuse to parade the shore in
bathing suits. It Is not due to mod
esty.
In order to prorve there was nothing
in their calumnious charges, Daysey
Mayme Appleton made it a point to
take the longest way round from the
dressing room to the water, and to
linger long on its edge silhouetted
against the ocean, and with the eyes
of all beholders fixed iffron her.
A violet hiding under a hedge is not
at heart more modest than Daysey
Mayme, but not one ever made charge*
against the violet’s figure.
She had stood, and turned, and walk
ed a few paces, and lingered on the
shore till she felt vindicated, and than,
with a quick run, dashed Into the wa
ter. She had not been unconscious
when on shore of the gaze of a vsry
handeome man in the wetter near by.
and was so much surprised when she
found herself close beside him that she
smiled.
He smiled. She smiled aat
noted how well he could swim.
“In the books,” she said, "he would
save me from drowning, kiss my cold
lips as he carried me to the shore, ami
call on the preacher next day."
His smile expressed devotion, Shs
would test It and she ventured out be
yond her depth.
Daysey Mayme can’t remember tn
detail just what happened next. 8he
felt that she was being carried away
that she was going down, down, and
that some‘one’s arms were holding her
Then she lost consciousness.
It was only a minute later, bat to
her it seemed years, when she felt
herself being rolled acroee a barrel, and
opened her eyes to the pain and hu
miliation of real 1 am.
"I knew when I first saw her,” she
heard the voice of her deliverer saying
"that she was one of them fool kind
of bathers that don’t know nothing
about the water. Let’s give her anoth
er good hard roll, then I must go back
to my wife and the kids.”
“The trouble with life,” Daysey May
me sobbed that night to her mother,
“is that it isn’t a bit like the books ”
To Be Continued To-morrow.
His Preference.
A famous sculptor was seated at a
dinner next to a fair but frivolous
young lady, and it was soon evident
that he was not very favorably im-
pres»?d by her idle chatter.
"What kind of a figure do you most
admire in a woman?” she inquired,
with the air of one angling for a com
pliment.
“Almost any kind, as long as she
is not a figure of speech,” he replied.
briefly.
tunnel building, showed progress to
about the halfway mark. It might be
necessary to do some juggling with
the engineering and financing, but the
two men felt equal to it.
Details of a stock market campaign
are of interest only to the expert.
Briefly, Wolf arranged for subscrip
tion at par in the sum of $125,000,000
to start the bail rolling when the
stock should appear on the market.
The ball rolled. Shares were $1,000
each, but by an ingenious arrange
ment of certificates which Wolf de
vised, anyone could buy an interest in
a share for $10. Allan mainly con
ducted the advertising campaign, and
under his skillful guidance, aided by
suggestions from Wolf, the dollars
came out of forgotten comers. “A
thousand dollars now will make you
rich in old age”—this was the bait
that drew the bank accounts. From
every quarter of the globe a little
stream of dollars issued, joining with
others and sweeping down in a roar
ing flood on the offices of the Tunnel
company. Day after day, and week
after week, the golden torrent swelled
and grew, and as fast as it came Wolf

“I have not gone on the street
any time since 1908 without a veil,
until now’. Just four months ago
a frifcnd persoiaded me to give
Resinol a trial. I have used three
cakes of Resinol Soap and less
than a jar of Resinol Ointment,
and my face is perfectly free from
any eruption, and my skin is as
clear and clean as any child’s. It
is about four weeks since the last
pimple disappeared.” (Signed)
