He
seemed
to
brace
himself
for
a
great
effort
,
and
then
started
on
the
queerest
rigmarole
.
I
did
n't
get
hold
of
it
at
first
,
and
I
had
to
stop
and
ask
him
questions
.
But
here
is
the
gist
of
it
:
He
was
an
American
,
from
Kentucky
,
and
after
college
,
being
pretty
well
off
,
he
had
started
out
to
see
the
world
.
He
wrote
a
bit
,
and
acted
as
war
correspondent
for
a
Chicago
paper
,
and
spent
a
year
or
two
in
South-Eastern
Europe
.
I
gathered
that
he
was
a
fine
linguist
,
and
had
got
to
know
pretty
well
the
society
in
those
parts
.
He
spoke
familiarly
of
many
names
that
I
remembered
to
have
seen
in
the
newspapers
.
He
had
played
about
with
politics
,
he
told
me
,
at
first
for
the
interest
of
them
,
and
then
because
he
could
n't
help
himself
.
I
read
him
as
a
sharp
,
restless
fellow
,
who
always
wanted
to
get
down
to
the
roots
of
things
.
He
got
a
little
further
down
than
he
wanted
.
I
am
giving
you
what
he
told
me
as
well
as
I
could
make
it
out
.
Away
behind
all
the
Governments
and
the
armies
there
was
a
big
subterranean
movement
going
on
,
engineered
by
very
dangerous
people
.
He
had
come
on
it
by
accident
;
it
fascinated
him
;
he
went
further
,
and
then
he
got
caught
.
I
gathered
that
most
of
the
people
in
it
were
the
sort
of
educated
anarchists
that
make
revolutions
,
but
that
beside
them
there
were
financiers
who
were
playing
for
money
.
A
clever
man
can
make
big
profits
on
a
falling
market
,
and
it
suited
the
book
of
both
classes
to
set
Europe
by
the
ears
.
He
told
me
some
queer
things
that
explained
a
lot
that
had
puzzled
me
--
things
that
happened
in
the
Balkan
War
,
how
one
state
suddenly
came
out
on
top
,
why
alliances
were
made
and
broken
,
why
certain
men
disappeared
,
and
where
the
sinews
of
war
came
from
.
The
aim
of
the
whole
conspiracy
was
to
get
Russia
and
Germany
at
loggerheads
.
When
I
asked
why
,
he
said
that
the
anarchist
lot
thought
it
would
give
them
their
chance
.
Everything
would
be
in
the
melting-pot
,
and
they
looked
to
see
a
new
world
emerge
.
The
capitalists
would
rake
in
the
shekels
,
and
make
fortunes
by
buying
up
wreckage
.
Capital
,
he
said
,
had
no
conscience
and
no
fatherland
.
Besides
,
the
Jew
was
behind
it
,
and
the
Jew
hated
Russia
worse
than
hell
.
"
Do
you
wonder
?
"
he
cried
.
"
For
three
hundred
years
they
have
been
persecuted
,
and
this
is
the
return
match
for
the
pogroms
.
The
Jew
is
everywhere
,
but
you
have
to
go
far
down
the
backstairs
to
find
him
.
Take
any
big
Teutonic
business
concern
.
If
you
have
dealings
with
it
the
first
man
you
meet
is
Prince
von
und
zu
Something
,
an
elegant
young
man
who
talks
Eton-and-Harrow
English
.
But
he
cuts
no
ice
.
If
your
business
is
big
,
you
get
behind
him
and
find
a
prognathous
Westphalian
with
a
retreating
brow
and
the
manners
of
a
hog
.
He
is
the
German
business
man
that
gives
your
English
papers
the
shakes
.
But
if
you
're
on
the
biggest
kind
of
job
and
are
bound
to
get
to
the
real
boss
,
ten
to
one
you
are
brought
up
against
a
little
white-faced
Jew
in
a
bath-chair
with
an
eye
like
a
rattlesnake
.
Yes
,
sir
,
he
is
the
man
who
is
ruling
the
world
just
now
,
and
he
has
his
knife
in
the
Empire
of
the
Tsar
,
because
his
aunt
was
outraged
and
his
father
flogged
in
some
one-horse
location
on
the
Volga
.
"
I
could
not
help
saying
that
his
Jew-anarchists
seemed
to
have
got
left
behind
a
little
.
