"Just before that letter arrived, and ufter Juan left for Caracas. Capt. John if. Hanska came to' Iort of Spain from Antwerp. Though my father was Spanish, we lived irv the English fashion; I was .rec to meet men. I met Capt. Hanska and fell in love with him " (Here the police stenographer cut corners. In this last phrase he condensed many divagations and evasions on the part of the witness; indeed. Inspector Martin McGee. expert inquisitor that he was, spent live minutes in bringing out that simple declaration am? the next.) "He said that he loved me. I believed him. It wag all very quick. Within a week we were secretly engaged. I suppcl cd that he was an American army officer on special duty. And after we were betrothed. I told him about our troubles and my wish to help Juan. My mind was made up by that time I would sell my Jewels before my brother returned to prevent me. I told this to Capt. Hanska. He offered to help. He said that he must go to England the next week, and in England he could sell them to much better advantage than in Port of Spain. I agreed I trusted him absolutely, you see. Then he told me that he could dispose of them more easily, and for more money, if he appeared to he tht' owner. So I made out and signed a bill of sale, describing In detail every piece to the last ring and pin. ar.d transferring them

absolutely to hiir. Now 1 know what a foolish thing I did. For that made tile jewels his property in law. as surely as though he had bought them from me. "The steamer on which he planned

to sail lor England he told me

due to leave lrt of Spain on

Wednesday morning. On Monday night ho visited me and took away the Jewels. He said that he wanted to rejci.yer them In advance with the purser. He promised to come again on Tuesday night. He did not appear. I learned the next morning that he had Jeft on Tuesday for New York. I started for the pier from which the Southampton steamer sail. In order to see if" there was any mistake. On the way, I met a friend of the family who had been waiting to warn me. He had found out about Capt. Hanka's career in Caracas. He prcved to me that the captain was an adventurer and almost a professional gambler. Then I understood. I told no one about the Jewels until Juan ci me back; but I wrot1 a letter to Capt. Hanska ;r. care of the steamship company. Somehow. It reached him. He answered it with a cold letter, claiming tho jewels absolutely and stating that he bought them from mc." , (To be. continued.) - :n

A Jury composed of working men. all married, acquitted Geo. H. Blxby, a millionaire. In Eos Angeles. Monday, of charges made by a number of youn? jrirls who charged that they had been recruited for Bixby's use. BIxb-s defense is that the whole scandal grew out of the attempts of girls to blackmail him. Blxby is married. During the first part of tho trial, Cleo Helen Barker, 13, one of the witnesses against the millionaire, testified that he had given her sums ranging from $j to 1300, together with a cross of gold, which the girls all caJled "The Cross of the legion of Dishonor." Bixhy was defended by a horde of expensivo legal talent, among whom is Oscar Lawlor, who gained fame because he was charged with writing the famous letter which Pres. Taft signed exonerating ,c. of the Interior Ballinger of charges of favoritism toward "wealthy seekers of iand.ivnd oal4 slalins. . . .. f .
