Stevens, Lorinier Hawkalee, back la wartime?" ' t i x "Yea," sold Stevens, puzzled, "1 re member btm s very one gentleman." The old planter sneered. , y "Yes, a very One gentlemanl You remembor be got rich out of contracts for supplies furnished to the Confed erate government when It wasn't any too easy for the Confederate govern ment to pay and when be was In that government himself. I . never quite thought that the act of a gentleman, Stevens. It seemed to me to be very like dishonesty. I refused.to speak to Lorlmer Xlawkslee in the Carroll hotel at Vlcksburg, and when the peo ple there asked me why I told them. I want to warn you, 8tevens, that I'm Ukely to meet you some time In the Carroll hotel at Vlckeburg." ' " , ' ' Stevens backed away angrily. "I catch your Insinuation, but" he re ceived a warning glance from Pea body and broke Into a pleasant smile calculated to deceive the old planter "this once I will ovorlook it because of our old friendship and the old days In Mississippi." tr, "You are a fine talker, Langdon," said Peabody, coming to Stevens' res cue, "but I can readily see what you are driving at. You want an Investi gation. You think you will catch some of us with what you reformer call the goods,' but forget evidently the entirely simple facts that your family has invested In Altacoola lands' more heavily probably than any one else among us. You want to raise a scan dal, do you 7 Well, go on and raise It, but remember that you will have to explain bow it happened that there Is $50,000 invested In the name of your sou and 125,000 In the name of your daughter, Miss Carolina, not to men tion a few thousands put in by the gentleman who, I am given to under stand, 'is to be your son-in-law. Con gressman Norton. "How about that. Norton?" Peabody asked, turning to the congressman, who had followed Stevens. ; i"l corroberate all you've said," re marked Norton. "I can state positively that Senator Langden knew that bis fe? Mr clful. You are not of any Importano In the sonate. We do not need to deal with you" "Then why do you both spend so much time on mer Oifced Langdon In mtwntly. "Why doeslfl Peabody go to Philadelphia?" "Langdon." said Peabody, "you know my control of th senate is no piece of action. But I wul forgive your oosti nacy. even forget it I" "Look here," cried Langdon, "Just because I'm a fat man don't think that I enn't lose my temper." He stopped and gfiised at his two colleagues. '"Now, you two men stay still one moment, and I'll tell you what real.y . it it- Ttn Witly to meet yon iom time in th Carroll luUtL" money was going into Altacoola land. I will swear to it if necessary," and be glared bitterly at Carolina's father, feeling certain that the girl -would cling to him as opposed to her parent Langdon made a threatening move at the congressman. "I consider my riddance of you mighty cheap at the price," he cried. , "Come, come, Langdon," fumed Pea body, "I must get away from here to catch the midnight train. Let's get through. with this matter. You must realize that you cannot fight me lu Washington. You must know that men call me the 'king of the senate.' I can beat any measure you introduce. can pass any measure you want passed. I can make yon a laughing stock or a power. "Why, my friend from Mississippi, I can even have your election to the sen ate contested, have a committee ap pointed to investigate the manner of your election, have that committee de-' dde that you bought your way into the honorable body, the senate of the.

The naval base is going to Altacoola" '"Good!" simultaneously cried both Peabody and Stevens. "You're coming In with us!" "No, I'm not, but I'll pass the bill so that nobody makes a cent. Just as I said I would.. I'll fool you both and make you both honest for once in spite f your natural dispositions." Stevens and the Pennsylvanlan tared at each other in disgust . "Furthermore," continued Langdon, 'Altacoola must have the base because fve known for some time that Gulf City was impossible. But some crook ed senators would have made money If they'd known it, so tbey dldnt learn It Altacoola, that proud arm of our great gulf, will have those battleships Boating on ber broad bosom and the country will be the better off, and so Will the sovereign state of Mississippi God bless It but neither Senator Pea body of Pennsylvania nor Senator Ste vens bf Mississippi is going to be any better because of ft.

How can yod win for Altacoola without let ting these grafters make money out of It? asked Haines in astonishment as the other two walked away. r"What are you going to do at 12:30 tomorrow?"
