The dining room was further adorned according to the old custom by having the mantels banked in maidenhair ferns, studded with white roses and chrysanthemums, and the win- dow recesses filled in with palms and foliage plants. Each of the parlors was simi- larly adorned. The east room, where the President and Mrs. McKinley received their guests, was unusually effective, chrysan- themums mingling with the background of green.

Detective Proctor made the arrests and recovered the property from one of the defendants. Nannie Tay: lor was the defendant for whose intersts Attorney Chase looked after, and she was acquitted. Mamie Anderson and Ella Smith were sentenced to sixty days in jail. The Mr. La Black menticned in the case proved to be the janitor of the second police station, whose name is Blakey. He was summoned, and the “capping” case then proceeded. The janitor told the court that he had given Attorney Hunt the names cf prisoners in the station about three times. Mr. Hunt, he said, had told him he was a stranger here and was in the court's favor. What he wanted was clients, and he said he could get acquainted if he (Blakey) would furnish him names. Blakey said he thought he wouid do no harm by giving him the names. Mr. Hunt, he said, had never paid nor promised to pay him anything. Judge Kimball remarked that the case was the clearest kind of a “capping” case.
