You have made and closed the only deal here about which I have the honor to know anything." "But my secretary doesn't yet know the state of affairs here," continued Mr.Haynes, gravely, "and he doesn't know that we have yet bought the _El Sombrero_ Mine.

Therefore, his despatch can't refer to anything else.

My private secretary is certainly warning me not to buy _El Sombrero_ Mine until we have further information." "But you have bought it," cried Don Luis, in a voice pitched rather higher than usual.

"You have bought it and have the deed to all this property.

The money has been paid, and is now mine, subject to my order." "Don Luis," continued the American railway president, "I ask you, before all my associates, to consider the matter still open until I can receive further particulars from my private secretary.
If there is any good and sound reason why we should not have bought this mine--" "But you have bought it, paid for it, and the money is mine!" cried Don Luis Montez.
