“One moment, please,” interrupted Jack. “Did the Sidenham officials know that Gaynor intended to use such methods?” “I don’t believe they did,” replied Truax. “Humph! So Gaynor hired you to do all you could to disgrace me in the eyes of the naval authorities and to injure the machinery in the engine room of the submarine!” “Yes.
I told him you carried a lot of money and that he could have it all if he’d decoy you somewhere, keep you all night, and send you back to the Naval Academy looking like a tramp.” He then added the name of the mulatto. “But why have you done this?” demanded Jack. “What have you against me?” “I didn’t do it on my own account. I did it for Tip Gaynor, a salesman for Sidenham.”
"Yes; and of course they wanted to get the business away from the Pollard crowd," confessed Sam Truax. "They told Tip Gaynor it would be worth ten thousand dollars to him for each Sidenham boat he could sell to the United States Government. Tip wanted that money, and your Pollard people were the hardest ones he had to beat. So Tip hired me " "One moment," interrupted Jack, quietly.
"Did the Sidenham people know that Gaynor intended to use any such methods?" "I don't believe they did," replied Truax. "In fact, Gaynor as good as told me the Sidenhams didn't know anything about his proposed tricks. He told me I must be very careful to keep the Sidenham name out of it all."
"I I didn't do it on my own account," confessed Truax. "Did you ever hear of Tip Gaynor?" "No never," admitted Jack, after a moment's thought. "He's he's a salesman, or something like that, for Sidenham." "The Sidenham Submarine Company?" breathed Jack Benson, intensely interested. "Yes." "The Sidenham people are our nearest competitors in the submarine business," muttered young Benson.
“The Sidenham Submarine Company?” cried Jack, deeply interested. “The Sidenham people are our nearest competitors in the submarine business!” he exclaimed. “Yes; and they wanted to get the business away from the Pollard Company. They told Tip Gaynor it would be worth ten thousand dollars to him for each Sidenham boat he could sell to the Government. Tip hired me—”
It is to be mentioned, also, that the Sidenham Submarine Company, while admitting that Gaynor had been entrusted with the sale of their boats to the Government, disclaimed all knowledge of the methods that salesman had been employing. Everyone believed the disclaimer of the Sidenham concern, yet up to date none of its boats have been sold to the United States Government.
