Cowperwood
stared
at
him
in
return
for
a
few
moments
with
a
cold
,
fishy
eye
.
He
knew
a
great
deal
about
human
nature
,
and
he
was
ready
for
and
expectant
of
any
queer
shift
in
an
individual
's
attitude
,
particularly
in
time
of
panic
;
but
this
shift
of
Stener
's
was
quite
too
much
.
"
Whom
else
have
you
been
talking
to
,
George
,
since
I
saw
you
?
Whom
have
you
seen
?
What
did
Sengstack
have
to
say
?
"
"
He
says
just
what
Mollenhauer
does
,
that
I
must
n't
loan
any
more
money
under
any
circumstances
,
and
he
says
I
ought
to
get
that
five
hundred
thousand
back
as
quickly
as
possible
.
"
"
And
you
think
Mollenhauer
wants
to
help
you
,
do
you
?
"
inquired
Cowperwood
,
finding
it
hard
to
efface
the
contempt
which
kept
forcing
itself
into
his
voice
.
"
I
think
he
does
,
yes
.
I
do
n't
know
who
else
will
,
Frank
,
if
he
do
n't
.
He
's
one
of
the
big
political
forces
in
this
town
.
"
"
Listen
to
me
,
"
began
Cowperwood
,
eyeing
him
fixedly
.
Then
he
paused
.
"
What
did
he
say
you
should
do
about
your
holdings
?
"
"
Sell
them
through
Tighe
&
Company
and
put
the
money
back
in
the
treasury
,
if
you
wo
n't
take
them
.
"
"
Sell
them
to
whom
?
"
asked
Cowperwood
,
thinking
of
Stener
's
last
words
.
"
To
any
one
on
'
change
who
'll
take
them
,
I
suppose
.
I
do
n't
know
.
"
"
I
thought
so
,
"
said
Cowperwood
,
comprehendingly
.
"
I
might
have
known
as
much
.
They
're
working
you
,
George
.
They
're
simply
trying
to
get
your
stocks
away
from
you
.
Mollenhauer
is
leading
you
on
.
He
knows
I
ca
n't
do
what
you
want
--
give
you
back
the
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
.
He
wants
you
to
throw
your
stocks
on
the
market
so
that
he
can
pick
them
up
.
Depend
on
it
,
that
's
all
arranged
for
already
.
When
you
do
,
he
's
got
me
in
his
clutches
,
or
he
thinks
he
has
--
he
and
Butler
and
Simpson
.
They
want
to
get
together
on
this
local
street-railway
situation
,
and
I
know
it
,
I
feel
it
.
I
've
felt
it
coming
all
along
.
Mollenhauer
has
n't
any
more
intention
of
helping
you
than
he
has
of
flying
.
Once
you
've
sold
your
stocks
he
's
through
with
you
--
mark
my
word
.
Do
you
think
he
'll
turn
a
hand
to
keep
you
out
of
the
penitentiary
once
you
're
out
of
this
street-railway
situation
?
He
will
not
.
And
if
you
think
so
,
you
're
a
bigger
fool
than
I
take
you
to
be
,
George
.
Do
n't
go
crazy
.
Do
n't
lose
your
head
.
Be
sensible
.
Look
the
situation
in
the
face
.
Let
me
explain
it
to
you
.
If
you
do
n't
help
me
now
--
if
you
do
n't
let
me
have
three
hundred
thousand
dollars
by
to-morrow
noon
,
at
the
very
latest
,
I
'm
through
,
and
so
are
you
.
There
is
not
a
thing
the
matter
with
our
situation
.
Those
stocks
of
ours
are
as
good
to-day
as
they
ever
were
.
Why
,
great
heavens
,
man
,
the
railways
are
there
behind
them
.
They
're
paying
.
The
Seventeenth
and
Nineteenth
Street
line
is
earning
one
thousand
dollars
a
day
right
now
.
What
better
evidence
do
you
want
than
that
?
Green
&
Coates
is
earning
five
hundred
dollars
.
You
're
frightened
,
George
.
These
damned
political
schemers
have
scared
you
.
Why
,
you
've
as
good
a
right
to
loan
that
money
as
Bode
and
Murtagh
had
before
you
.
They
did
it
.
You
've
been
doing
it
for
Mollenhauer
and
the
others
,
only
so
long
as
you
do
it
for
them
it
's
all
right
.
What
's
a
designated
city
depository
but
a
loan
?
