Marsha Warrineton's Testimony in
 White Slave Case.

San Francisco, Aug. 39.-The trial of F, Drew Caminetti rolled swiftly for ward today. The witnesses and the evidence of the government were with few exceptions identical1y the same as in the case of Maury l. Diggs convict ed of violating the Mann white slave law, Marsha Warrington had the stand for the greater part of the day and her testimony went to show that Caninetti was guilty of assisting in transporting her and Lola Norris from Sacramento to Reno,
 The effort of the defense was te prove that Caminetti had played a passive part One passage of the cross examination is representative of it's whole trend.
 s'At the meeting between Biggs, CaaiHetti, Miss Norris and yeufsalf on the Saturday before you left fer Reno the meeting at which yeu i've girls agreed to ge-Mr. Diggs did all the talking and Mir. CaIniRetti sat by and agreed to everything by keening quiet. Is that the way you wish to be uR= dersteed ?'

 Against this contention were those of Miss Warrington today that Gam inetfl had furnished the money for the triR and that he had given $2g of it should buy her passage. In this state ment and in her repeated afHirmations that Ca1inetti had agreed to every thing Mggs had proposed. the wit ness was not shaken.
