I made a few dispositions accordingly. Taking Doddridge Knapp's hint, I engaged another broker as a relief to Eppner, a short fat man, with the baldest head I ever saw, a black beard and a hook-nose, whose remarkable activity and scattering charges had attracted my attention in the morning session.
I suspected that my little broker knew more than he was willing to tell, but I forbore to press him further; and giving him the order to buy all the Omega stock he could pick up under fifty, I made my way to Eppner.
At Doddridge Knapp's suggestion I arranged to do my business through three brokers, and added Lattimer and Hobart to Wallbridge, and Bockstein and Eppner. Bockstein greeted me affably: "Velgome to de marget vonce more, Mr. , Mr. "Wilton," said Eppner, assisting his partner in his high, dry voice, with cold civility.
"I sold down to seventy-one average seventy-three, I guess and she's piling in fit to break the floor." "Did Lattimer and Eppner get your stock?" I could not help asking. "They got about three thousand of it. Rosenheim got the rest." I remembered Rosenheim as the agent of Decker, and sighed. But Lattimer and Eppner were busy, and I had hopes. "Where is it now?" I asked. "Sixty-nine and a half."
I knew well enough what was wanted. My financial standing was to be tested by the head of the firm, while the junior partner kept me amused. Eppner was quick to take my ideas. A few words of explanation, and he understood perfectly what I wanted. "You have not bought before?" It was an interrogation, not an assertion. "Oh, yes," I said carelessly, "but not through you, I believe."
Eppner was short and a little stooped, with a blue-black mustache, snapping blue-black eyes, and strong blue-black dots over his face where his beard struggled vainly against the devastating razor. Both were strongly marked with the shrewd, money-getting visage. I set forth my business. "You wand to gif a larch order?" said Bockstein, looking over my memoranda. "Do you haf references?"
