Pierpont Mor- gan appeared in the West London po- lce court as a witness in the case of Mrs. Josephine Leslle, who was ar- rested at Newmarket July 4 charged with defrauding members of well known families by false pretenses and who represented herself to be a friend of Mr. Morgan. The latter repudiated all knowledge of Mrs. Leslle. He said he did not write to her advising her to join one of his syndicates and never invited Mrs. Leslie, as alleged, to dine at his son’s house. As a matter of fact, Mr. Morgan added, he was in New York at the time of the alleged invitation.
