He thought a moment I don't know whether you mean It, Jim, but I can take no chances, not for all tho money la tbe world, not even for revenge.

If tbey have any on band at that time. "My power, Jim. Is unlimited: nothing can stay It 1 am not going to explain any farther.

You bare seen ma work. You must know that my power la greater than tba ami yoa and 1 aad tba Street' have always known tbat the 'System' Is more powerful than tho government, mora powerful than are tho courts, legislatures, foagrsaa, aad tha prosldest of tba United Btatss combined, that It absolutely controls tba foundation oa which they moaey of tba nation. But my power to greater, a thousand, yea, a million times greator thaa theirs. Jisa, they aay tbat I have mors money than aay aum is tba world.

Tho world has boss throwing op Its bands In horror because Carnegie, the blacksmith of Pittsburg, pulled off three hundred millions of swag in tbe Steel swag, Jim.

Don't scowl as though you want- ad to read me a lecture on tha coarse osss of my language. I bare learned to call this gams of ours by Its right roe. It Is not business enterprise wltb earned profits as results, but pulled-off tricks wltb bags of black-iack their end. "I got away wltb three hundred millions whan Steel slumped from to SO sod from to sad no one know I'd made a dollar.

Tha papers aad the mar kat one morning said It was Standard Oil; tba asst. tbat It was igprgss; then It was Prick, Schwab, Oatoa, and so on down through tbe list Of course, none of them denied It capital to all these knights of tbe road to be making millions In the of tbe world, even though they never get any of tho money. Dick Turpln aqd WUd never were fonder of having tbe daring hold-ups tbat other highway men per pet rated laid to their doors, than are these modern bandits of being credited with ruthless deeds, that tbey did not commit But Jim, 'twas I who Pennsylvania every morning for a year, while the selling was explained by tbe press as 'Cassatt catting down Oould's telegraph poles. Oonld and old man Rockefeller selling Pennsylvania to get Jim Randolph. I have to-day a billion dollars, not the Rockefeller or Carnegie kind, but real billion.

If I had power bat tbe power to cull to-morrow for that billion In catih. tt would be suffl dent to lay In waste ihc financial world before to morrow night. Vuu are welcome, Jim, to any'part of that billion, and tho more you take tba happier you will make me, but when strike In again, don't attempt to etay me, for it will do no good."
