in which Elsie Williams, Grace
Loose and Myron Azhderian are
alleged to have extorted money
The States interests were in the
hands of Thomas Riordan, Reel B.
Terry and Frank H. Short Of
Fresno; and the defense was con-
Quoted by George w. Baker and L.
Clark of Fresno.
The defendants are accused of
having in particular instance eX-
tended the neither extremity of the
aged capitalist, to the tune of $4,000,
by threats of exposure of his re-
lations to the woman Williams.
This act is said to have been per-
formed by the latter and her con-
federates while Captain Nevills
was lying sick at the Palace Hotel
and unable to stand off his perse-
cutors.
Elsie is petite, painted. and in
earlier days must have been rather
pretty, with doll features and pecu-
liar gray eyes. Her figure is dam
ty and her appearance in silks and
sealskins yesterday accounts for
the fact that she fascinated the
wealthy captain greatly to his
monplace and Azhderian is a
swart. hatchet-faced, black-eyed,
shrewd looking young man.
The prosecution, after estao-
fishing the fact that Captain New
ills had given the defendant Elsie a
check for $1,000, supposedly for the
purpose of keepin~ her mouth
closed as TO his intimacy with her,
called a number of witnesses resi-
dent in Fresno and this. city TO
show by inference and otherwise
that the character and reputation
of Elsie Williams was not enviable.
The young woman appeared to en-
JOY this part of the proceedings
thoroughly, and when IT was tes-
titled that AZhderian had shared
cottage with her over night; that
but one sleeping apartment had
been occupied. and that a mans
shoes were seen in her room,
while AZhderian was out in the
yard in his bare feet, she enjoyed
a hearty laugh and succeeded in
blushing through her paint.
William Remington, who testified
to these facts, related several con-
versations he had had with Azh-
derian calculated to show. that the
leg of Nevills. The fact was
also brought out that Nevills had
strictly, forbidden Azhderian, his
superintendent. to stay at night
on the ranch where Elsie Williams
and Grace Loose were quartered.
However, the young man paid no
attention to these orders and spent
his time with the women when the
boss was away.

tanned an account of the thrilling es-
cape of party of Cubans from that
war stricken isle to New Orleans and
their trip from there to Pittsburg,
which is being made on the Queen City.
A State Journal man was at the wharf
today when that river greyhound ar
rived here and found the Cubans to. be
plain old every day Arabians. There
we're eleven of them stored away back
