If
you
've
paid
any
attention
to
the
matter
you
must
have
seen
what
a
condition
these
North
and
West
Side
lines
are
in
.
"
"
It
's
pretty
bad
;
I
know
that
,
"
commented
McKenty
.
"
Just
so
,
"
replied
Cowperwood
,
emphatically
.
"
Well
,
now
,
if
I
know
anything
about
these
old
managements
from
studying
them
,
they
're
going
to
have
a
hard
time
bringing
themselves
to
do
this
.
Two
to
three
million
are
two
to
three
million
,
and
it
is
n't
going
to
be
an
easy
matter
for
them
to
raise
the
money
--
not
as
easy
,
perhaps
,
as
it
would
be
for
some
of
the
rest
of
us
,
supposing
we
wanted
to
go
into
the
street-railway
business
.
"
"
Yes
,
supposing
,
"
replied
McKenty
,
jovially
.
"
But
how
are
you
to
get
in
it
?
There
's
no
stock
for
sale
that
I
know
of
.
"
"
Just
the
same
,
"
said
Cowperwood
,
"
we
can
if
we
want
to
,
and
I
'll
show
you
how
.
But
at
present
there
's
just
one
thing
in
particular
I
'd
like
you
to
do
for
me
.
I
want
to
know
if
there
is
any
way
that
we
can
get
control
of
either
of
those
two
old
tunnels
that
I
was
talking
to
you
about
a
little
while
ago
.
I
'd
like
both
if
I
might
.
Do
you
suppose
that
is
possible
?
"
"
Why
,
yes
,
"
replied
McKenty
,
wondering
;
"
but
what
have
they
got
to
do
with
it
?
They
're
not
worth
anything
.
Some
of
the
boys
were
talking
about
filling
them
in
some
time
ago
--
blowing
them
up
.
The
police
think
crooks
hide
in
them
.
"
"
Just
the
same
,
do
n't
let
any
one
touch
them
--
do
n't
lease
them
or
anything
,
"
replied
Cowperwood
,
forcefully
.
"
I
'll
tell
you
frankly
what
I
want
to
do
.
I
want
to
get
control
,
just
as
soon
as
possible
,
of
all
the
street-railway
lines
I
can
on
the
North
and
West
Sides
--
new
or
old
franchises
.
Then
you
'll
see
where
the
tunnels
come
in
.
"
He
paused
to
see
whether
McKenty
caught
the
point
of
all
he
meant
,
but
the
latter
failed
.
"
You
do
n't
want
much
,
do
you
?
"
he
said
,
cheerfully
.
"
But
I
do
n't
see
how
you
can
use
the
tunnels
.
However
,
that
's
no
reason
why
I
should
n't
take
care
of
them
for
you
,
if
you
think
that
's
important
.
