Witness said she gambled little on
races, on the lady riders.

interview with her ut her ia hers home.
She was alone there. At that time she
told him something about her relations
with Baldwin. Does not fix the date.
Knows she had been at San Francisco
before with Baldwin. Had known NJ SIS
Perkins beforel made her acquaintance
because she was like Alice Perkins at
Haywards, Alamo Ia county. He found
her alone at this time, and told her be
was going to talk to her as TO child OF
his own. Told her she ought not to ride
round with these rich men; 1t was very
dangerous. She said she could take care
OF herself. He told her if Baldwin would
marry her he would do all right by her;
but If she let him get the best OF her he
would throw her off. She said that was
ali right, abe did not want to marry him.
She liked TO ride round and have good
time. but she was engaged to Mr.. Chas.

Times office to-day; went there to re-
monstrate about their repnrter, who was
very rough on Baldwin's witnesses, and
that he would request not to be so
treated, he is crippled by paralysis and
would not Ike TO have his intirmities
made subject Of ridicule.
Mr.. White here replied, "You would
prefer HERALD reporter"
TThis goes without saying. Any SEN
sible man would OF course prefer an i'm
partial report, that treated people with
respect

porter had some rough personal re-
marks to make on all Baldwin's wit
nesses; that he was suffering from paral-

denied this.
