Cowperwood
exhibited
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
'
worth
of
West
Chicago
Street
Railway
stock
.
"
I
want
to
know
if
I
can
get
two
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollars
on
those
by
to-morrow
morning
.
"
Hand
,
a
placid
man
,
looked
at
the
securities
peacefully
.
"
What
's
the
matter
with
your
own
bank
?
"
He
was
referring
to
the
Chicago
Trust
Company
.
"
Ca
n't
it
take
care
of
them
for
you
?
"
"
Loaded
up
with
other
things
just
now
,
"
smiled
Cowperwood
,
ingratiatingly
.
"
Well
,
if
I
can
believe
all
the
papers
say
,
you
're
going
to
wreck
these
roads
or
Chicago
or
yourself
;
but
I
do
n't
live
by
the
papers
.
How
long
would
you
want
it
for
?
"
"
Six
months
,
perhaps
.
A
year
,
if
you
choose
.
"
Hand
turned
over
the
securities
,
eying
their
gold
seals
.
"
Five
hundred
thousand
dollars
'
worth
of
six
per
cent
.
West
Chicago
preferred
,
"
he
commented
.
"
Are
you
earning
six
per
cent
.
?
"
"
We
're
earning
eight
right
now
.
You
'll
live
to
see
the
day
when
these
shares
will
sell
at
two
hundred
dollars
and
pay
twelve
per
cent
.
at
that
.
"
"
And
you
've
quadrupled
the
issue
of
the
old
company
?
Well
,
Chicago
's
growing
.
Leave
them
here
until
to-morrow
or
bring
them
back
.
Send
over
or
call
me
,
and
I
'll
tell
you
.
"
They
talked
for
a
little
while
on
street-railway
and
corporation
matters
.
Hand
wanted
to
know
something
concerning
West
Chicago
land
--
a
region
adjoining
Ravenswood
.
Cowperwood
gave
him
his
best
advice
.
