The ground floor offices were
frightfully wrecked and the tele-

the damaged plant late last even

the dynamite and gave their rea-
sons for believing this explosive
was the cause of the affair.
"Our plant has been dynamited

Llewellyn of the company today.

OBy United Press Leased Wire. }
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 26.-That
the explosion that partially wreck
ed the plant of the Llewellyn iron
works at 2 O'Clock yesterday
morning was caused by dynamite,
is the unanimous belief today of
the management of the plant, the
police and the Pinkerton detec-
tives who have been given charg
OF the investigation that already
has begun. According to evidence
offered in the ruins of the sec
tion of the building where the ex-
plosive is believd to have been
placed, low grade of dynamite
was used and was set off by a long
fuse. A portion of this fuse has
been found and is being held by
the police.
Estimates of the damage done
vary. The more conservative place
it at from $40, 1000 to $4,000. II
Is possible that $4,000 is nearer
the correct figure. Night Watch
man J.. E. Asbury, a negro, who
was the only person injured, is un.
able to give the officers any ma
terial assistance. Asbury was
badly bruised and his right arm
cut by the explosion.

Women Battle for Millions of
Lucky Baldwin, Heart Breaker

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 26.-One
woman having her reputation torn
to shreds by 100000 worth of
legal talent, a daughter who re.
fused to be present to listen to he1
mothers reputation as a girl be-
ing probed into by the legal lights
has been the spectacle ever before
| the crowd of curious crowding
the courtroom in the fight to
break the will of the late Lucky
Baldwin.
The woman is Mrs. Lillian Ash
ley Turnbull and she is fighting
for share of old "Lucky's" es-
ltate because she charges that he
was the father of her daughter,
Beatrice Anita. She further
charges that the old man tricked
her into contract marriage which
was not a legal marriage and that
she fled from him when she found
he had q wife living. She has
sued for two-ninths of the $12,-
100000 left by Lucky"
Was Heart Breaker.
1t isn't a nice story; 1t is filled
with the sordid love affairs of an
accomplished roue; 1t is the tale of
a man who thought nothing of ac-
complishing the downfall of a girl
and then casting her aside for lat
er loves. 1t is this story and the
insinuations against her mothers
character that the alleged daugh-
ter of the old profligate Lucky"
refused to hear when her mother
was questioned by the lawyers for
the defense.
Baldwin was a gambler in
hearts as he gambled on race
horses. He played to win always.
At his bedside when he died were
assembled the crowd of women he
always had around him at his
princely ranch near Los Angeles,
for his death-not because they
really cared for him, but because
they wanted his money.
There was onlyo one thing that
really affected Baldwin's flint
heart and that was the death of
his famous race horse, the Emper-
or of Norfolk. He had the animal
Ou hlb anu
ally before his death he would
visit the grace.
His Queer Defense.
After the beginning of his rae
ing career his domestic troubles
started. 80 numerous were the
suits against him that he finally
set up this original defense: "The
woman has no right to say that
she was deceived, for my record
is so well known that no decent
woman would have any relations
with me-"
His wife divorced him in 1876,
and for the next two years he was
caught in q startling web of love
affairs, flirtations, scandals and
engagement. The game got too
big for him and he married Mar
jorie Dexter just to escape the 9TH
er band, as he explained at the
time. Marjorie died two years
later. and Baldwin was again mix

ed in all sorts of amorous diff
culties. Verona Baldwin, his
cousin, took a shot at him, and
following a few minor escapades,
Jennie ePrkins secuerd $4,000 on
la breach of promise suit. In 1886
he again married; this time Lille
Bennett, his widow.
Then-eame Lillian Ashley, who
lis now suing his heirs for part of
Baldwin's estate for her daughter,
Beatrice Anita, whose father, she
says, was old Lucky" At this
time Baldwin's daughter, by his
first wife, Anita, eloped with her
Causin, Geo. Baldwin. This nearly
drove the old man to distraction.
In his loneliness he offered to
make Lillian Ashley his daughter
and ended by making her his con-
tract wife. Then she learned his
unsavory story and fled. Her
daughter, Beatrice Anita, was
born in st. Louis several months
later.
Lillian Ashley sued Baldwin for
seduction, and her sister shot at
him in the courtroom. This is
said to have lost her the suit.
Since Baldwin's death, daughters
have been springing up with
startling regularity, and no one,
not even Baldwin himself, were he
alive, can say whether they have
all been heard from, And there
1t stands; a huge estate tied up by
the claims of lot of women, most
Iof whom at one time or another
contributed to the turmoil that
ragged about Lucky Baldwin, and
now they are turned loose on
each other with the Baldwin win
Inings as the bone of contention.
