"
Mr
.
Ford
has
already
explained
the
situation
,
"
he
said
with
asperity
.
"
And
so
have
I
.
The
check
will
be
mailed
—
"
"
I
also
have
explained
,
"
Martin
broke
in
,
"
and
I
have
explained
that
I
want
the
money
to
-
day
.
"
He
had
felt
his
pulse
quicken
a
trifle
at
the
business
manager
’
s
brusqueness
,
and
upon
him
he
kept
an
alert
eye
,
for
it
was
in
that
gentleman
’
s
trousers
pocket
that
he
divined
the
Transcontinental
’
s
ready
cash
was
reposing
.
"
It
is
too
bad
—
"
Mr
.
Ford
began
.
But
at
that
moment
,
with
an
impatient
movement
,
Mr
.
Ends
turned
as
if
about
to
leave
the
room
.
At
the
same
instant
Martin
sprang
for
him
,
clutching
him
by
the
throat
with
one
hand
in
such
fashion
that
Mr
.
Ends
’
snow
-
white
beard
,
still
maintaining
its
immaculate
trimness
,
pointed
ceilingward
at
an
angle
of
forty
-
five
degrees
.
To
the
horror
of
Mr
.
White
and
Mr
.
Ford
,
they
saw
their
business
manager
shaken
like
an
Astrakhan
rug
.
"
Dig
up
,
you
venerable
discourager
of
rising
young
talent
!
"
Martin
exhorted
.
"
Dig
up
,
or
I
’
ll
shake
it
out
of
you
,
even
if
it
’
s
all
in
nickels
.
"
Then
,
to
the
two
affrighted
onlookers
:
"
Keep
away
!
If
you
interfere
,
somebody
’
s
liable
to
get
hurt
.
"
Mr
.
Ends
was
choking
,
and
it
was
not
until
the
grip
on
his
throat
was
eased
that
he
was
able
to
signify
his
acquiescence
in
the
digging
-
up
programme
.
All
together
,
after
repeated
digs
,
its
trousers
pocket
yielded
four
dollars
and
fifteen
cents
.
"
Inside
out
with
it
,
"
Martin
commanded
.
An
additional
ten
cents
fell
out
.
Martin
counted
the
result
of
his
raid
a
second
time
to
make
sure
.
"
You
next
!
"
he
shouted
at
Mr
.
Ford
.
"
I
want
seventy
-
five
cents
more
.
"
