Shortly/ after 7 o'clock Belmont met Christian Larouette, a recent arrival from San Jose, and after representing that he was a capitalist from Sacramento induced him to accompany him to a saloon at 102 Geary street. While they were drinking Reynolds appeared and proposed that they shake the dice for the drinks. Belmont lost, and becoming angry, as Larouette thought, he offered to shake Reynolds | “for all the money he had. | Failing to influence Larouette to take a | hand in the game, Belmont asked him | to hold the stakes, which amounted to sev- | Sy eral dollars.
