The special Grand Jury was discharged yes
tcrlav after three months of labor. 1t has done
some coed work. for which it is entitled To re-
ccive the thanks Of the public; but in several
particulars it has not met popular expectation.
No intelligent citizen who read the testimony
taken bv the Lcxow Committee has the least
doubt that the evidence fully warranted the in
dctmcnt Of Inspector Williams; but the jury
took a different vicw and that official gets off
scot free. The ease against John {. Shechan
was less strong. but many people would have
been pleased to see him put on trial for his mis-
deeds when in the Police Board. Some further
indictments were handed up yesterday. but TIE
Jury did not find time to 90 outside of the Ponce
Department. Other departments should he sub
iectcd to strict scrutiny; so there is plenty of
work in store for future Grand Jurics.

full consideration, have determined to make use

'Parson Gibson Continues His Testimony in
the Case

the Case
SAN FRANCISCO. April 25.-Rev. John
George Gibson. pastor of the Emanuel
Baptist church, was again on the witness
stand today in the preliminary examina-
tion OF Theodore Durrant, charged with
the murder of Minnie Williams.
The defense believes that it has case
against the clergyman. and will try to
shcw that he and not Durrant killed both

He then groped his way along the hall
until he was within few feet of the
washroom door, when he again tor"Ned
his left hand to the plastered wall r.
der to steady himself. He then entered
the washroom and performed his toilet.
The extent of the blood ~stsinss IN the
washroom goes to prove that the mur-
derer had no light while hewas washing
his hands, for judic1ous person, as his
actions proved him to be, would not have
spattered so much blood around if he
could have seen what he was doing. And
it is evident that if he had light he
would not have left the blood stains on
the basin. 1t is also evident that he
would not have thrust his bloody hands
into his pockets in order to get a match.
The fact of the murderer having come
such distance in order to wash his
bloody hands at once explodes the theory
that the man was naked or dressed only
in his underwear when he murdered Min
ME Williams. 1t is impossible that d
man would traverse such distance in
his underwear, and it is quite evident
that he would not attempt to put or bis
o5her clothes while his hands were SO
bloody. And even if he had stopped to
don his clothes, the blood from his hands
would have been rubbed on his clothes,

which is occupied by the choir. There
are stairs leading from the front of the
choir platform to the door of the audi
torium.
And so the murderer path is thus
definitely traced. He left the mutilated
body of Minnie Williams and ascended
the main stairway at the front of the
church, thus gaining an entrance to the
auditorium above. Then he crossed the
church and descended the left aisle to the
elevation occupied by the choir. Ascend
ing the steps to this PLATFORM he went
directly across it to the door leading into
the little rear hallway. Having passed
through the door, he had to descend the
short flight of stairs, and in order to
make certain of his step in the intense
darkness he touched his left hand to the
wall twice. making the distinct blood
marks OIL the wall in two places before he
descended the steps.

THE CHAIN OF CIRCUMSTANCES

Miss Williams and Miss Lamont. On the
date preceding the finding of Blanche La
mont's body her aunt, Mrs. Noble, re-
ceived paper containing the rings worn
by the missing giil. On the paper were
written the names of George r. King and
Professor Schernstein, the apparent OBJ
ject being to connect these men with the
girls disappearance. Experts declared
the writing to be the disguised penman-
ship of Durrant In court today counsel
for the defense requested Rev. Gibson to
write the names of King and Schernstein.
The minister complied and asked twice
how to spell Schernstein's name. Gibson
was calm and collected on the stand and
was good witness. Nothing tangible
against him was developed by cross-ex-
animation and his testimony was con-
cludcl.
Albert 0. McElroy, aged Is, testified
that on Friday evening. April 18th. he OBJ
served man resembling Durrant waiting
on a corner near the church. Soon Il
young woman came along. The man ap-
preached her and shielded her with his
shoulder from witness observation. Soon
afterwards witness, who had passed on,
noticed light moving in the church.
This testimony was corroborated by Bert
Minner, McElroy's companion. The other
evidence adduced was repetition of that
given at the inquest. The examination
was continued until tomorrow at the re-
quest of the district attorney. Durrant
has secured desk and an easy chair in
his cell and spends his time in studying
his notes for his medical examinations.
