The girl made revolting charges against both Agnes Barrett and Mrs. Kenyon. "What happened then?" was asked. "Why, Miss Barrett offered me a silk dress if I would do as she told me." "Did she show you the dress?" "Yes." "Tell what happened," urged the attorney. "Mrs. Kenyon said to Miss Barrett: 'Where is the other girl? We promised them to bring two girls here.'" "Did any men enter the room?" "Yes, one man came in." "What else happened?" "Miss Barrett and Mrs. Kenyon held me." "Did the man offer you any money?" "Yes, but I wouldn't take it." "Did Miss Barrett tell you to take it?" "Yes." "Was the light burning?" "Yes, but when the man came in Miss Barrett turned it off." "Did you know at the time that Miss Barrett had gone to your room and taken the lace and other articles that you are now charged with stealing?" asked Mr. O'Donnell. "No, sir." "Did Miss Barrett say anything to you that night about losing lace?" "Yes, and she said I had stolen it. I told her it was a lie." "What did Miss Barrett say?" "She had a paper and said I would have to sign it and admit that I had stolen the lace. I refused to do it." "What did she say?" "She said if I didn't sign it she would call that man back again. Then I signed it." "Did you call Miss Barrett any names that night?" "Yes, I told her that she was a beast and that Mrs. Kenyon was another." "Tell the jury what you did." "I tried to scream, but Miss Barrett put a towel over my mouth and she said if I screamed again she would choke me." The girl declared that Mrs. Kenyon and Miss Barrett had prevented her resisting the man. She declared she had cried and when she went home she asked two women to call a policeman. "They told me to go to Captain O'Brien's office the next day and I did," said Miss Gingles. "Did you have any money?" was asked. "No, Miss Barrett took all my money out of my purse." "How did you get home to 474 La Salle avenue?" "I ran home." "That's all," said Attorney O'Donnell. "Did you run all the way home?" was the first question by Prosecutor Short on cross-examination. "Yes, ran or walked." "Which way did you go?" "I ran out in Jackson boulevard and ran west on the north side of the street," answered Miss Gingles. "Did you see any people while you were running? "I didn't notice many." "How did you go down stairs?" "I took the elevator." "Didn't you know there was a policeman in the Wellington hotel?" "No, I didn't see any policeman." "There were lots of people in the hotel office, wasn't there?" "I didn't stop to notice." "You didn't have any money to pay your car fare?" "No; Miss Barrett had taken all my money." "You saw people in the streets, but you didn't stop and tell any of them to call a policeman?" "No." "What time did you leave the Wellington hotel?" "At twenty-five minutes to twelve o'clock." "How long did it take you to get home?" "About twenty minutes." "What was the first thing you did when you got home?"
