The fan is brought and put in Bill's room by mistake. Jimmy, the electrician, teaches Bill how to gamble with the fan by numbering the blades. The idea works out well, though there is going on in the Boss' office a conference between Trust Magnates, and the Boss would like to know why the fan hasn't arrived. Various other office boys join the little game outside, for nickels, and one loses under what he thinks is fraud. So he goes downstairs and complains to a policeman, who comes upstairs to raid the game. In the meantime, it has ended in so loud an argument that the Boss has come out and found the fan, and taken it into his private office. There the Magnates see the numbers on the blades and Bill is sent for to explain them. He does so, and the Magnates get interested and open a game themselves, to Hadley's disgust, he wanting them to attend to business. At the thick of their game, when they, like the office boys, begin quarreling, the policeman breaks in and comes near arresting them, being persuaded not to only by Hadley's entreaties and something else. The policeman goes out, mollified, and Bill is made to clean the numbers off the fan, after which business is resumed, and Bill is sent out, to count up his earnings.
