SAN KKANCISCO, CaCI.. Aug. 20.
Wincing ftR though It wcro tho
generally nntlclnatcd verdict of
"Riillty" ami coworing closo benlilc
tho wlfo ho hnd deserted for twenty-year-old
Marsha Warrington,
Mntiry I. Dlggs. at the close of his
trial on a white slavery chargo, was
forced to llslon to what Is declared
today to li&vo been tho most scath
ing denunciation ever heard In a fed
eral courtroom here.
Special Prosecutors Matt I. Sulli
van and Theodoro Kocho, for tho
government, wcro making tho clos
ing argument to tho Jury, which be
fore night, will bo charged by
United Slates Judge Van Fleet
Dlggs was lashed not only as tho
dcspoilcr of tho girl with whom he
eloped to Reno, but as a coward who
was willing to relinquish bis young
and pretty victim to further degra
dation when bo bad dono with bis
Illicit pleasures and tho reckoning
with tho law was at band.
That It was only because- of bis
speedy apprehension by tho pollco In
tho bungalow at Reno and not br
virtue of. any intent of Dlggs that
Miss Warrington was saved from re
lying on tho resources of a penniless
and friendless girl hundreds of miles
from borne, was submitted to the
Jury In no uncertain terms by Roche.
.'Ho was seeing to it that Miss
Warrington did not go back homo;
ho was Intent on kcplng her out of
tho state," said the prosecutor, re
ferring to Dlggs' anxiety that Miss
Warrington and Lola Norrls should
not return to Sacramento under any
circumstances. ,
"Mis Warrington, ns far as the
testimony shows, didn't have a flvo
cent piece In her possession at that
tlmo," continued Roche. "While the
two men could go back to their wives,
they knew full well that neither of
tho girls they had taken away with
them could ever regain tho social
position they had lofL What did
Dlggs havo In mind that tho two
girl victims could be expected to do
after ho returned to his homo? If,
as ho testified, Dlggs planned to re
main away but a short time until
tho Bcnndal blew over and Camlnottl
bis companion In crime, was planning
to go back to his bills in Amador
county, ho realized that thcro was
practically but ono courso left tho
girls.
"And If tlioy followed that, ho
would not havo to bother about Miss
Warrington any longer, nor would ho
havo to worry nboul her condition
and his responsibility for it.
"Unquestionably Maury Dlggs Is
guilty of every chargo laid agalnBt
him in tho six counts of tbo indict
ment." "Murhlia Warrington iliil not de

DigK". Kliu did not even Jink fur

Mm. Dijrgs gave no sign of feeling
oilier than a frown.
"Eiitranco to houses of prostitu
tion is not reached in uo bound,''
(.aid Itocbc. "The chasm between u
good homo nnd a brother is too wide
to bo so easily bridged. It takes
suvornl step?. It is by such nets as
these (lint decent nnd innocent girls
ore forever ruined und doomed.

white slavery. Ho may bo a moral
monster. He may hnve committed
many crimes but It ho Is not guilty of

trial but Hint tho defendant coerced

Mrs. Lena Diggs, wife of tho de
fendant, holding her daughter Kve
lyn on iter lnp. ngniu sat beside her
hicdmnd today. Mrs. Caniinotti was
not present,
"You cannot believe," continued
Uoche, "that the counsel of Diggs

''The only argument lie could ad

Devlin then launched Into an at
tack on the Warrington nnd Norrls
girls.
"They had no respect for their par
ents," ho said. "Young girls now
get drinks, they take automobile
rides; they go to beaches and re
sortsand tho rest was as a matter
of course. You cannot slnglo. out
ono man for tho sins of society.
"Miss Wnrrlngton was thrown at,
Dlggs under a fictitious name by
Monto Austin, a saloonkeeper. This
Is her own story. She knew Dlggs'
was married. She knew bis wlfo nnd
child. What, does all that mean
Is that tho way of a virtuous girl?
"The defendant may have of
fended moral laws. Ho has at least
slnco then been manly enough to
bear all the abuse without throwing
mud Nut n slncle word na.ilnsl tho
girls.
"Thcso women In their dcslro to

Into the world without compunction
or else they wanted to fall ns low as
women can. A woman who will be
tray a man who U going back to bis
wlfo will say anything."
"The defense iti this ene is n rc
marknblc one," began Prosecutor
Roche, resuming his nrguinent. "Or
dinarily it is baed on the innocence
of the defendant, but in this ease it
is based on Di'!gV depravity. He
hides behind the skirts of bis wite
nnd rhild. There ha been no other
promise.
''When he got to Itcno be intended
to nbaiidon these girls to their fate
after they had boon placed in such
a compromising situation that they
could not rot urn home. And by that
same promise he tried to suborn
Marsha Warrington's testimony and
bring her into this trial to save him.
"Diggs' character is shown by the
fact ti'at he brought Miss Warring
ton into his own home for immoral
purposes, into the sanctuary of hN
own wife, while the latter was absent.
