where she tossed her collection If
gems when she came in at night and
there they stayed until she went out
next day. When friends demonstrated
with her for going out and leaying
the windows open she would only
shrug her shoulders and say:
What's the difference? They're

Her $4,000 ermine coat and pink
wrap, which were among the things
stolen from the apartment after she
was killed, were bought with money
given her by Marshall He also
bought her the Kissel Kar speed

her death.
Visits Cost $4,000 Each.
When questioned secretly at the
District Attorneys office, MAR
shall" admitted each Of his ten
visits to her apartment cost him
$1,000. If Dorothy's stories to her
girl friends can be believed, there
were many more than ten visits
and the damage to nMarshafl's 81
banlkroll was considerably greater
than his estimate. 1t was her GUS
tom when he was in town to plug
the telephone bell 50 that they
would not be disturbed by incon-
yenient callers.
A few weeks before her death
Dorothy conceived the idea that 1t
would be much nicer to live on

Of his visits.
Afraid To Take Chances.
Certainly not" he exclaimed. II
have too many friends living on
Park avenue to take chance on
being seen there"
The matter was dropped then and
there.
"Marshall's" trips to the apart
ment were accomplished with a
wealth -precaution. His secre-
tary and body guard, Wilson" was
always in evidence. It was "Wil.
son" who called Circle $50 and got
Dorothy on, the wire before Mar
shall" took the phone. It was
"Wilson" who preceded his en-
ployer up in the elevator when he
came to the apartment and down
again when he left. Throughout
the two or three days that Mar
shall'' usually spent in New York.
"Wilson" was always within calling
distance.
Secretive About Marshall.
Dorothy was equally secretfve.
None Of her friends gained the
slightest inkling Of who Marshall"
might be.
"My sweetie called me up from
Boston," she would say. Or 1.-THE
angels in town." but nothing more.
And even then she was not quite
truthful. "Marshalp' was papa"
not a 'sweetie," If one is to be
technical.
Guimares was equally mysterious
in another way. His source Of in
come has never been fully ac-
family in Porto Rico is very
wealthy. There are others that he
made fortune during the war in
."war BRIDE stocks. Whatever his
means, he was able to match the
elderly millionaire in generosity.
$4,000 For Christmas Gift.
His last Christmas gift to
Dorothy was $4,000 in cash. Out
Of 1t she promptly bought him a
$3.50 fur coat at Revillon Freres.
He was wearing it when arrested
Immediately after the murder.
Another of his gifts was a ciga-
rette case Of platinum and gold
with places for a diamond studded
cigarette holder and a Yale door
key of solid gold.
According to the story he told
Dorothy, Guimares lost $4,000 in
a deal in the stock market about
six weeks ago. This and his diff.
culties with the authorities in Bos-
ton, where he is awaiting trial on
stock fraud charge, may have
delayed his prospective marriage
with Dorothy, although those who
know her best say she would not
have considered marrying him so
long as there was a possibility of
her getting Marshall" for a hus-
band.
That would be heavy sugar"
