San Francisco, September 27.-The
proceedings in the Dnrant case opened
this morning with Captain Lees on the
stand He testified that the belfry door
was in the same condition at the present
time as when he examined it April 81.
He had applied chisel to the marks Oh
the door, and it had not enlarged them.
Attorney Duprey at this point inter
posed and asked that the reply of sergeant
Bourne, that he did not think the spot
on the sole of the PASTORS shoes was
bloodstain, be striken out, on the ground
that it was simply an opinion. The
motion was denied Detective Colley
identified the piece of paper which Pastor
Gibson's writing was on, as piece found
in the pastors study. The piece Of paper
was identified as evidence. Officer Rus
sell testified that there was no difference
in the door now than from the time
when he first saw it. Here Duprey OBJ
jected to the jury's inspecting the door
on the ground that it was not shown to
DO in the same condition as on the third
of April This objection was also over
ruled and the jury examined the marks
on the door.

wind aft, and have wind on opposite
sides, the yacht with wind on port side

Section establishes the definition of
an overlap.
The EthelwyEn was splendidly sailed
by Capt. Ball. This victory, if allowed
by the committee makes two each to the
credit of each yacht and the decisive race
to be sailed The committee did not give

A DESPlCABLE ATTEMPT.
To Burn the Establishment of Libby &
Son at Gorham, N. III.
Especial TO THE PREss.l

Gorham, N. H., September 27.-An at :
tempt was made at one o'clock this morn
ing to burn the mills, store and stable
of e. Libby & Son, at the lower village.
The fire was kindled in the centre of the
planning room, and was discovered by a
Waterman who at once gave the alarm,
and called out the fire department. With
great difficulty the fire was confined TO
the room where it originated, and no
great damage W as done. Had 1T got
much Roadway great damage would have
resulted as the mills are SO located that
the fire could hardly have been confined
TO them. 1t was scare that the people
will not be likely to forget. The fire was
discovered in place remote from the
engine, and it is hard to see how it could
have caught accidentally.
