eler. in the meantime. had made In
Quiries and had found out what the
captain would like.
II developed. however. that Annie
had misunderstood the lawyers ques-
ton, and when she realizedN this. she
repeated the story OF the entire trans
action just as she had in the morning.
and in practically the same words.
For MIR. Frazers benefit. Annie tod
of every gift she had ever made 10
a police officer in chronological order.
beginning with the $40 tribute 10
Favor the first week she became ac-
quainted with him and ending with
the whisky set, which she claimed
was New Years gift 10 Capt. New
berry. She had also given presents
TO Coulson. when he was justice OF the
peace. for protection, she said These
gifts included punch bowl and sew
eral sums OF money. according 10 the
witness.
Il have 1t all down in my book"
she said
The plain object of the defense In
bringing out these matters relative
TO Coulson was TO show that others
who. according 10 the evidence. are
just as guilty as the police officers,
were not prosecuted.
According 10 Annie, whenever Capt.
Newberry or Favor wanted something
they would begin TO get cross and be
gin 10 complain and talk threateningly.
And when Capt. Newberry would get
better present than Favor, the latter
would be awfully sore. she said.
Favor Wants Lamp, Too.
Just after she had given Capt. New
berry the cut-glass lamp. Annie swore
Favor came to her place, told her he
had seen the lamp in Capt New
berry's home, and wanted one like 1t.
He told me then that he could
make just as much trouble for me as
Capt. Newberry could" she added.
Annie was at her wits ends trying
to keep them both satisfied, according
to her story. She told OF giving the
captain $50 diamond ring for Christ
mas, 1906.
Il told him couldn't afford to give
him a larger one then because | was
fixing my house and was under heavy
expense she went on.
What did the captain say"
He said | was a good woman"

captain began to complain that the
diamond was too small and she finally
bought him a $3.50 stud. She went on:
After the captain got the diamond
stud he was more pleasant. but Favor
was cross. He kicked because ] al
lowed young shoeblack in the sa-
loon, but he had often seen the shoe
black in there before and never said
a word. He came In to see me and
finally ne spoke of the captains stud.
Then | knew what was bothering
him. So | had the diamond changed
for HIN. giving him the one the cap
tain had returned. But still he was
not satisfied. He wanted carat and
a half stone. reported him TO the
cptain for that.
More Grating by Favor.
Next he wanted me 10 get him n
gold-handled umbrella with his name
carved on Il, and | got II. That is,
he bought it himself and | paid for
IL. Two weeks afterward he brought
II back and wanted me TO have 1t fix
ed for him. The edges were frayed
out. | refused TO have IL fixed. So
he took II down. had II repaired and
brought the bill TO me, which / paid.
After receiving a gift from her
hands. both were always very grac-
ious until they wanted another, she
said. and would invariably promise to
FIX everything all right"
In addition to the larger gifts. Annie
said she gave each a turkey on one
occasion when she had rattle and
made them many presents OF liquor
and cigars.
Annie was asked IL she did not think
she was doing wrong In giving pres
ents to officers.
Anne's Philosophy.
81 thought the one who takes II is
more guilty than the one who gives
IT," was her answer.
The afternoon session was enliven-
ed by. a demand. on Attorney Muriins
part. for the transcript or testimony
taken before Justice Jeffrfes, but
Justice Stein ruled aginst him.
