The President

CHAPTER XVI
31/43

You remember what I told you as to the plans of our friends to 'bear' Northern Consolidated?
This will bring their opportunity.

When the markets begin to toss and heave and fall with those White House antics touching Germany and the Monroe Doctrine, Senator Hanway's report will be sprung in the Senate.

He will give it to the press the night before, so that the morning papers may ring an alarm to the 'bulls.' This will be the procession of affairs: The President will threaten Germany on Tuesday; Senator Hanway's report will be in the papers and the Senate on Wednesday; by Wednesday night our 'bear' pool will have been clamorously selling Northern Consolidated all day.

Per incident, we will have been buying Northern Consolidated all day.

By Friday evening--I give them three selling days in which to work their ruin--I shall wire you that they are caught in the trap by all their feet at once.
