The
General
produced
a
list
of
four
names
,
none
of
them
officers
or
directors
of
the
old
companies
.
"
Dummies
,
every
one
,
"
said
Cowperwood
,
succinctly
.
"
I
think
I
know
,
"
he
said
,
after
a
few
moments
'
reflection
,
"
who
is
behind
it
,
General
;
but
do
n't
let
that
worry
you
.
They
ca
n't
harm
us
if
they
do
unite
.
They
're
bound
to
sell
out
to
us
or
buy
us
out
eventually
.
"
Still
it
irritated
him
to
think
that
Schryhart
had
succeeded
in
persuading
the
old
companies
to
combine
on
any
basis
;
he
had
meant
to
have
Addison
go
shortly
,
posing
as
an
outside
party
,
and
propose
this
very
thing
.
Schryhart
,
he
was
sure
,
had
acted
swiftly
following
their
interview
.
He
hurried
to
Addison
's
office
in
the
Lake
National
.
"
Have
you
heard
the
news
?
"
exclaimed
that
individual
,
the
moment
Cowperwood
appeared
.
"
They
're
planning
to
combine
.
It
's
Schryhart
.
I
was
afraid
of
that
.
Simms
of
the
Douglas
Trust
is
going
to
act
as
the
fiscal
agent
.
I
had
the
information
not
ten
minutes
ago
.
"
"
So
did
I
,
"
replied
Cowperwood
,
calmly
.
"
We
should
have
acted
a
little
sooner
.
Still
,
it
is
n't
our
fault
exactly
.
Do
you
know
the
terms
of
agreement
?
"
"
They
're
going
to
pool
their
stock
on
a
basis
of
three
to
one
,
with
about
thirty
per
cent
.
of
the
holding
company
left
for
Schryhart
to
sell
or
keep
,
as
he
wants
to
.
He
guarantees
the
interest
.
We
did
that
for
him
--
drove
the
game
right
into
his
bag
.
"
"
Nevertheless
,
"
replied
Cowperwood
,
"
he
still
has
us
to
deal
with
.
I
propose
now
that
we
go
into
the
city
council
and
ask
for
a
blanket
franchise
.
It
can
be
had
.
If
we
should
get
it
,
it
will
bring
them
to
their
knees
.
We
will
really
be
in
a
better
position
than
they
are
with
these
smaller
companies
as
feeders
.
We
can
unite
with
ourselves
.
"
"
That
will
take
considerable
money
,
wo
n't
it
?
"
"
Not
so
much
.
We
may
never
need
to
lay
a
pipe
or
build
a
plant
.
They
will
offer
to
sell
out
,
buy
,
or
combine
before
that
.
We
can
fix
the
terms
.
Leave
it
to
me
.
You
do
n't
happen
to
know
by
any
chance
this
Mr.
McKenty
,
who
has
so
much
say
in
local
affairs
here
--
John
J.
McKenty
?
