 ..Dunring and two ladies who lived at Mrs. Moore's lodging house, he said, s.freouently came to the saloon In the afternoon or late at night and bought whisky by the quart. One of them, l u-as told. was Mrs. Botkin, but the oth- or one. who was about five feet two or three inches tall and of brunette tyne I did not know. On several occa- sions the women came alone. once or twice while accompanied by Dunning they appeared very gay ana ilVeiy ana I have thought they were under the in f1uence of liquor. They seemed to be treading very lightly and indulged in rather loud laughter. AS l remember now. they usually addressed Dunning as lack or in terms Of rather more tender endearment. The three Of them were very speedy and appeared to be thoroughbreds I don't remember any of them ever purchasing less than quart bottle of whisky at one time and often it was two or three quarts.
 'George Beck, a young drug clerk across the street, used to come over and tell me of his visits to Mrs. Botkin's rooms with Cunning and of the glorious times they had there In the evenings.
 Mrs. Moore. who is S2 years of age, is suffering from nervous prostration and has been removed from 92I Geary street to No S36 Turk street, where she is heinz cared for by friends.
