said:

"I don't want to get you into trouble, but you know you were there
Friday night, and there is no use of you denying it."

Walling however, still refused any admission.

Once during the talk Jackson shook his finger in the face of Walling and
said:

"Be careful; do not go too far."

Again he said: "You lie, and you know you are lying."

To which Walling answered: "You show in your eyes that you are lying."

The colored porter persisted in all the statements made to the
authorities that Albin, the barber, was driving the cab.

ALBIN, THE BARBER. SAYS HE DID NOT DRIVE THE MYSTERIOUS CAB FRIDAY
NIGHT.

Detectives Witte and Jackson were at once sent for Fred Albin the
barber, and were not long in bringing him in. He and Johnson, the
porter, were seated on the same lounge in the Mayor's office and Albin
