In
reply
to
this
Mr.
Schryhart
called
in
Mr.
Stackpole
to
corroborate
him
.
Some
of
the
stocks
had
been
positively
identified
.
Stackpole
related
the
full
story
,
which
somehow
seemed
to
electrify
the
company
,
so
intense
was
the
feeling
against
Cowperwood
.
"
It
is
amazing
that
men
should
be
permitted
to
do
things
like
this
and
still
hold
up
their
heads
in
the
business
world
,
"
said
one
,
Mr.
Vasto
,
president
of
the
Third
National
,
to
his
neighbor
.
"
I
should
think
there
would
be
no
difficulty
in
securing
united
action
in
a
case
of
this
kind
,
"
said
Mr.
Lawrence
,
president
of
the
Prairie
National
,
who
was
very
much
beholden
to
Hand
for
past
and
present
favors
.
"
Here
is
a
case
,
"
put
in
Schryhart
,
who
was
merely
waiting
for
an
opportunity
to
explain
further
,
"
in
which
an
unexpected
political
situation
develops
an
unexpected
crisis
,
and
this
man
uses
it
for
his
personal
aggrandizement
and
to
the
detriment
of
every
other
person
.
The
welfare
of
the
city
is
nothing
to
him
.
The
stability
of
the
very
banks
he
borrows
from
is
nothing
.
He
is
a
pariah
,
and
if
this
opportunity
to
show
him
what
we
think
of
him
and
his
methods
is
not
used
we
will
be
doing
less
than
our
duty
to
the
city
and
to
one
another
.
"
"
Gentlemen
,
"
said
Mr.
Arneel
,
finally
,
after
Cowperwood
's
different
loans
had
been
carefully
tabulated
,
"
do
n't
you
think
it
would
be
wise
to
send
for
Mr.
Cowperwood
and
state
to
him
directly
the
decision
we
have
reached
and
the
reasons
for
it
?
I
presume
all
of
us
would
agree
that
he
should
be
notified
.
"
"
I
think
he
should
be
notified
,
"
said
Mr.
Merrill
,
who
saw
behind
this
smooth
talk
the
iron
club
that
was
being
brandished
.
Both
Hand
and
Schryhart
looked
at
each
other
and
Arneel
while
they
politely
waited
for
some
one
else
to
make
a
suggestion
.
When
no
one
ventured
,
Hand
,
who
was
hoping
this
would
prove
a
ripping
blow
to
Cowperwood
,
remarked
,
viciously
:
"
He
might
as
well
be
told
--
if
we
can
reach
him
.
It
's
sufficient
notice
,
in
my
judgment
.
He
might
as
well
understand
that
this
is
the
united
action
of
the
leading
financial
forces
of
the
city
.
"
"
Quite
so
,
"
added
Mr.
Schryhart
.
"
It
is
time
he
understood
,
I
think
,
what
the
moneyed
men
of
this
community
think
of
him
and
his
crooked
ways
.
