SLOW PROGRESS IN THE
DE LAVEAGA CONTEST
MazatIan Witness Writes She
Was Not Offered Bribe

Mrs. Cebrian was the only witness
examined yesterday in the trial of the
contest of the will of Maria Conception
de Laveaga. She was questioned about
letters between herself and her brother,
Miguel As there is a great deal of con-
fusion concerning the whereabouts of
certain Of these letters the case was
continued to Monday for the purpose of
having all the correspondence brought
together and tabulated.
Attorney Pillsbury, in behalf of the
contestant, offered to read letter writ
ten by Elvira Castano. the old family
servant, stating that when she wrote
formerly that promises of interest
had been made TO her by Rocca if she
would come TO San Francisco from Ma
zatlan and testify she did not mean TO
imply that she was being offered a
bribe.
All she contended was that an offer of
her expenses had been made to her.
Judge CofTey. however, refused to ad-
nit the letter to the record, on the
ground that it was a self-serving dec
laration and not material TO the issues.
