"HE'S ALL RIGHT"
Roosevelt Surprises the New
York Liberals.

Roosevelt Surprises the New
York Liberals.
NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-The much
heralded demonstration of the
United Societies for Liberal Sunday
Laws, which occurred today, was
unique affair and the person who
did most to make it such was
Police Commissioner Theodore
Roosevelt, for whose denunciation
the display was largely inspired.
Mr.. Roosevelt had been invited to
review the procession, and to the
surprise of everyone he did review
it. He appeared early in the stand,
which was crowded with leaders of
the liberal movement. He stood and
smiled urbanely while the line went
past, with many banners and trans
parencies emblaZoned with such
sentiments as Down With Roose-
veltism" and Roosevelt Is a Farce
and a Humbug." The commissioner
was recognized by all of the organi-
cations and was most heartily ap-
plauded and greeted with cries of
What's the matter with Roosevelt ?''
to which came the stereotyped an
swer. The parade itself was an in
teresting exhibition and drew enor-
nous crowds to the line of march.
There were $50 societies, represented
by about 10000 men, in line, most of
them German organizations. Many
floats were drawn along, the most
conspicuous being the Goddess of
Liberty, attired in mourning and
surrounded by the muses. with
I clasped hands and hanging heads

BANN0CKS STILL SULLEN.
Indian Commissioner Brown
ing's Annual Report.

indian Commissioners Brown
fng's Annual Report.
WASHINGTON, Sept 25.-Commis-
sioner of Indian Affairs Browning has
made his annual report to the secre-
tary of the interior. 1t shows prog
ress in nearly all directions. The only
new important development during
the year was the trouble between the
Bannock Indians and the whites at
Jackson's Hole, Wyo. Commissioner
Browning quotes from recent reports
OF Agent Teter to show that the In
dians are still sullen and that they de-
mand that the whites who wronged
them be punished, and the commits
sloner asks whether or not the depart
ment of justice cannot do something
towards Furnishing the offenders.
Inc commissioner speaks with pride
OF the Indian exhibit at the Atlanta
exposition. The educational interests
OF the Indians show gratifying i'm
provement. A new feature in Indian
affairs has arisen over contests initia-
ted by white men for allotted Indian
lands. The remoteness of the Indian
claims from agencies and settlements
has made it difficult to give the In
dfans proper defense, but agents and
district attorneys have been requested
to look after their interests The
contests have caused the Indians a
great deal of annoyance. The commits
sioner reviews the history of the trou-
BILE at the Omaha and Winnebago agen-
cy which concerned the Flournoy COM
pany and Capt. Beck, the acting agent.
The commissioner says the officers de-
sire to break up the system, which the
F1ournoy company pursued, of leasing
Indian lands and making sub-leases.
Mr.. Browning says that the mission
ary work Of all denominations has the
hearty consent of the Indian office.
The commissioner found some diff
Guilty in making the 20 per cent reduc-
ton of contract schools required by
the last congress, and finally decided
not to make a horizontal reduction, but
to continue the contract schools where
the government had not adequate
school facilities. Several contract
schools have been purchased by the
Indian office. The attempt to conduct
mixed schools for whites and Indians
has not proven very satisfactory owing
to race prejudice. The commissioner
urges most stringent legislation to meet
the decision of Judge Bollinger rela-
tive to the sale of liquor to the In
dians on all of the allotted lands. Com
missioner Browning thinks that the
payment of the Indian depreciation
claims should not come out of the an
nuities of the Indians, which are now
barely sufficient for their support.

France and Russia Are Pretty
Near Ready.
LONDON, Sept. 26.-The Vienna
correspondent of the Times says:
"Die Presse voices the official opin-
ion of the visit of Prince Lobanoff,
Russian foreign minister, to France,
and follows it with an impartial pre-
sentation of the policy Of the cabi-
nets of Paris and st. Petersburg. It
shows the coincidence of interest be-
tween Russia and France and the in
evitable character of the relations
that arise therefrom. For the last
twenty-five years the French govern
ment has known exactly what it
wants." says Die Presse, .'and every
body will understand the significance
of the concentration of troops on the
German and Italian frontiers. and
only those who desire to deceive
themselves can doubt the meaning
of the mobilization of the Russian
army in Poland with the front to-
ward Berlin. The entende between
the republic and Russia is a natural
necessity which not even Prince Bis
marck's policy Of having two strings
to his bow could prevent

inhaled the gas, which made him sick,
as testified by King.
A SIMPLE THEORY.

You are asked to believe that this
man accused of murder went directly
down to secure a. witness to his crime.
We will show that Durrant was on the
platform, lying down, and when King
returned, went down to the kitchen to
take the seltZer We will show that,
upon the request of King, Durrant
helped King to carry cabinet organ
down stairs into the Sunday school
room. Then Durrant and King left
the church together, Durrant putting
on his coat at the door 1t being
Kings dinner time, Durrant walked
with him part of the distance home,
meeting a lady on the way, to whom
he said the gas made him sick. After
dinner he went to the church to an
evening entertainment. This will be
the simple theory of the defendant.
He will be corroborated by those who
know him well and who will give rea-
sons why these statements are correct.
We will then turn our attention to
some evidence found in the church.
We will show you, as long as they have
introduced a paper here with letters
on II, as compared with letters found
In Emanuel church, that they are let
ters written by Rev. John George Glib
son. If we are to act upon suspicious,
who have been cast into suspicion,
and worse than the defendant We
will show you that on April Durrant
wore dark suit of clothes of blue
he had light trousers. We will show
that the eyesight of Mrs. Leak and
Mrs. Crosset are impaired, and that the
reputation of Witnesses Quinlan, OPP
penheim and Phillips for Veracity is
bad. If we can prove what we have
outlined now, we should have the spirit
of Blanche Lamont call upon you to
realize the truth, and If her spirit
could come before you 1t would say:
Let the defendant stand out; let him
be free, for he harmed me not Theo-
dore Durrant is innocent; we stand for
his life; we demand his liberty
THE PRISONERS MOTHER.
After a recess Mrs. Matilda Durrant,
mother of the prisoner, took the stand
She testified that on the morning of
April her son was dressed in a blue
cheviot suit, the blue trousers of
which she identified, and the garment
was introduced as evidence. Mrs Dur
rant stated that her son returned
home that evening, shortly after 6
o'clock, dressed in the same blue chew
lot suit. He wore no overcoat The
family dined that evening at 6:15, but
the witness said Theodore had little
appetite and he did not look we'll At
o'clock that evening he took his
mother to street car and when she
returned at 1870 he was in bed and
asleep.
Police Sergeant Reynolds described
the chisel marks on the belfry door,
He searched for a. tool with which the
mark might have been made, and in
the pastors study found a chisel which
fitted the marks exactly.

LINE OF DEFENSE.

Let me carry you along the ground
upon which we ask for a verdict FOR
the defense. First, you shall hear from
the mother of Durrant how he was in
G9f de9fes6ed ste IN IN church work and what he
did TOR Emanuel church. We will tell
you how he met Blanche Lamont. and
or his association with her. Mrs. Dur
rant will tell how her son was dressed

did that evening. The good repute and
honorable character of the defendant
Will be proven. The attendance at the
cooper Medical college and his gem
eraI demeanor will be shown. On the
morning of April 3 Durrant left his
home and walked towards the house
of George King, so that he might
have a helper that evening to fix the
gas in the church. He accidentally
met Blanche Lamont, whom he told
he was on the way to Kings house.
and asked her to accompany him. She
said that she did not have time to
accompany him before school and re-
school. He acduiesced in this and ac-
companied her as far as Suffer street
and Octavia, while the defendant went
on to Webster street to the medical
and what Durrant did from his ar
rival there until noon hour, when ho

DURRANT,S SURPRISE PARTY.
A Letter Written by Blanche La
mont After ADril 2.

OMAHA, Neb., Sept. 25.-The Bee to-
day says: Last night a prominent
member of the Pinkerton detective
agency passed through here. He had
just come from San Francisco and is
familiar with the whole proceedings
in the Durrant matter. When pressed
to tell of the surprise that Durrant's S
lawyers are holding back, he said the
accused had now in his possession, and
would soon show to the court, a letter
which is bound to establish his inno-
cence. This letter was written by
Blanche Lamont a. day or two after
she is supposed to have been murdered.
Concerning the contents of the letter
or its exact date he would not speak,
but he said that there could be no
doubt but the letter was written by
Miss Lamont later than April 81

CAUGHT FOR s1eo, 900.
Detroit Business Man Works His
Friends Very Neatly.

DETROIT, Mich, Sept. 25. = The
Evening News publishes sensational
three-column story regarding the dis
appearance from Detroit of Edward
e. Harvey, a well-known heavy real
estate operator, and the supposed
moneyed end of the clothing firm of
Mabley, Harvey & Co., which col
lapsed several weeks ago, after a short
but snowy existence. 1t is charged
that Harvey who was extremely pop
ular in the business and social cir
cles, took advantage of social and
fraternal ties to drag friends into
speculative or pretended speculative
schemes, until he had caught a score
of them to the amount of over S1GO, 900.
One of his principal alleged victims is
K. c. Webb, who indorsed Harvey's s
paper to the extent of nearly s1OC. 900.
Most of those who have suffered
through Harvey's peculations will say
nothing about 1t. Harvey is now in
Winnipeg, Man, where he is inter-
ested with others in developing the
salt and lumber resources on a large
tract of land which they own.

WASHINGTON, Sept 25.-After re-

Herbert today decided to abandon the
idea of advertising for proposals for
building the two new battleships with
a provision for the inclusion of the nee
essary armor for the ships In one form
of bid. Consequently the advertise
ment will call for bids for the ships
without armor, according to the exist
ing practice, under which all of our
new ships were built. The idea of per-
mitting shipbuilders to bid for ships
with armor complete is still under
consideration, but, even if adopted, it
will not apply to these two battleships.

ONLY A STRONG SUSPICION.

Ihe district attorney has presented
a strong case of circumstantial evil
dence, which at first would create a
strong suspicion of the guilt of the de-
strong suspicion the prosecution has
tailed to go. We contend that. with
all the testimony introduced, the only
issues to be passed on have not been
answered. Where did Blanche Lamont
forfeit her life? When did she meet
her death? Who caused her death?
These questions have not been an
swered. A fourth question is the
cause of death. A fifth has not, and
cannot, be answered. What was the
OF Blanche Lamont? Under the testi-
mony thus far, we claim to ask the
court at this time to instruct the Jury.
