about one o'clock
The news bureaus have just published the story that I am buying for Randolph & Randolph , and they for the insiders ; that the new tariff is as good as passed ; and that at the directors ' meeting to-morrow the Sugar dividend will be increased , and that it is agreed on all sides she wo n't stop going until she crosses 200 . I 've been obliged to take on only 18,000 of your 50,000 , and at present prices there is over two hundred thousand profit in them . I think I could go back there and in thirty minutes have it to 180 . Then if I rested on it until about one o'clock and threw myself at it for real fireworks up to the close , I could , under cover of them , let slip about half our purchases , and to-morrow open her with a whirl and let go the balance . If I 'm in luck I 'll average 180-185 for the whole bunch , but I 'll be satisfied if I get an average of 175 , which would allow me to sell it on a dropping scale to 160 . '' I agreed that his campaign was perfect , and Beulah Sands said in her usual quiet way , `` It is entirely in your hands , Mr. Brownley . I do n't see how any advice from us can help . ''
