The Prisoner Much Depressed over thu
Jsvidonon Against Him.
SAN FRANCISCO. Oos. la.-The trial Of
Z Theodore Durant for the murder OF
Blanche Lamont did not go on yesterday.
So many of the jurors are business men
and this being collection day the court adj
journed until today. 1t is likely that the
court will take further adjournment.
Attorney Duprey, the leading counsel
for the defense is confined TO his bed with
rheumatism, and his associates will base
this as a reason for continuance for SOW
eral days. Although the court is known
to be opposed 60 delays in this trial, Il is
believed, however, that he Will grant tho
continuance. In that case the trial will
not likely be resumed before next Monday.
In the meantime Theodore Durant re-
mains In his cell, never leaving it for the
customary exercising in the corridors. It
is said that he is becoming exceedingly
irritable. Since he finished his testimony
in Judge Murphy's court the defendant
has lost considerable vivaoity, and instead
Of being careless and indifferent he is Sc
rious and troubled
For the first time since his arrest the
medical student seemed impressed with
the proper idea OF his terrible position.
-Au lurb u HIS utWutQ on MN ihtl ne
may be convicted, and as he realizes the
chain Of circumstances against him he
has become much depressed. Attorney
Dickinson, for Durant remarked that he
thought the defense would be able to put
in the balance of its testimony in two
days or less. Then the prosecution will
put its witnesses in rebuttal. District At
torney Barnes says he will handle them
rapidly, but Dickinson is preparing TO
cross question witnesses at length, and on
that account it need create no surprise if
another week is devoted 10 the work Of
taking testimony
Although Captain Of Detectives Lees is
busily engaged in the trial of Durant for
the murder of Blanche Lamont, he Is not
overlooking the Mimic Williams case
but is still gathering evidence to be used
when the trial Of that case is begun.
Many think that in the event tho prisoner
is convicted Of the killing Of Blanche La
mont he will not be put on trial for the
murder Of Minnie Williams Captain
Lees and the district attorney have made
up their minds, however, to press both
eases. just how soon the second trial will
begin has not been determined, as a date
for the hearing has not been set.

Hot SPRINGS. Ark, Oct 15.-The law
will soon be appealed to to decide whether
a scientific contest between skilled boxers
with soft gloves will be violation of its
provisions in the state Of Arkansas
Manager Vendig said "Wo have not
come to Arkansas and the city of Hot
Springs with any purpose to violate its
laws. If MIR. COrbett and Mr.. fitzsim-
mons cannot come TO this city and give
such an exhibition as is provided for in
our article Of agreement as they now
stand-a limited number of rounds with
soft gloves, the authorized officers being
empowered TO stop the exhibition If it be-
comes brutal-then the exhibition will
surely not take place in Hot Springs. The
best authority at our service says that
this will be no violation Of the laws Of tho
state, but to make ourselves absolutely
safe tho citizens committee has engaged
the best representatives of the legal pro
fession in Arkansas, and they are looking
diligently into the matter at this time.
We shall have a decision from them by to-
morrow, and upon their advice we shall
act. The matter will he brought into the
courts as soon as we can get it there If
we cannot have the fight here, we have an
absolute guarantee of protection from
them lust across the Rio Grande from El
Paso. Until we know just where we
stand legally in this matter here we shall
do nothing"
The ministers called a meeting at the
Central Methodist church, and quito
crowd gathered. William A. Brady, Cor
belts manager, was present and asked II
a representative of Mr.. Corbett might be
permitted to have a few words. There
were a few subdued expressions Of dissent.
but calls to Speak, Speakr' began to
fill the room, and Mr.. Brady was permit
ted TO talk. Mr.. Brady's talk captured
the house, and when he finished such an
aoclamation Of cheers and handclapping
went up as was never before seen or heard
in that sacred edifice. The church people
were completely nonplused, and in a few
minutes more the house was practically
empty.

LOCKPORT, n. Y, Oct. 15.-The dispo-
stion Of 4, 600 acres of land near Marinus,
Fla, hinges on the outcome Of suit to
determine whether Rastus g. Gage for
merly well known business man of Mid
dleport this state unlawfully welded two
women. The land in question was the
property of Miss Elizabeth Hawkins, whom
Gage married in Florida in 1872. She
died in 1893, and there being no children
Gage as her husband inherited the land.
Robert q. Hawkins brother of the
dead woman, contests this disposition of
the property on the ground that the mar
riage of Gage to Elizabeth Hawkins was
null and void it being alleged that Gage
had married Jane Reynolds at Middle

at the time of the second marriage and
lived until about year ago at Catskill,

Mexico Is Now Spoken of as the Pro.
speotivo battle-ground.
LITTLE Rock, Oct. 15.-Governor Clarl
furnished fresh evidence Of his determine
tion TO prevent the Corbett- Fitzsimmoni
fight at Hot Springs or in Arkansas. A
telegram was sent by the governor to
Brigadicr General John A. Taylor Of For
rest City OF the Arkansas state guard
epmrloning him to a conference at once
Tho meaning OF tho conference is that tho
governor desires 10 acquaint himself Will
the available strength Of the state militia
So thai he may act knowingly if the situa
ton at Hot Springs reaches a crisis where
the services Of the militia may be re
qulred.
General Taylor is expected to arrive to
day and consult with the governor
According 20 the offers contained In
kilograms and letters received at the ca
ecutiye Office Governor Clark estimates
that the services of 10, 900 men are at his
disposal for the purpose Of putting down
the fight if needed. These offers come
from all parts Of the state
Clark Determined to Prevent the Fight.
A vigorous determination to prevent
the fight is plainly disccrnable in the sig
ni1cant proceedings at the executive office
Indeed Governor Clark was more emphat
&c than ever in saying that the fight would
not be allowed 60 come off in Arkansas
He goes so far as TO say that If the affair
occurs as advertised at Hot Springs he
would resign and try to find an Office that
he could run. The governor says Corbett
and Fitzsimmons have been warned, and
If they now arrive at Hot Springs bent on
tho mission Of fighting their presence in
the city or county will be considered an
overt act and will be treated accordingly.
The governor says he viii do everything
within the scope of his power to prevent
the big mill. He says that he realizes that
Hot Springs Is anxious 20 retrieve its past
misfortunes, and he would like to help
the city but in this instance his duty is
plain, and he will use his utmost dill
genco and power to do what it is his duty
20 do. He would not like to put the state
to the expense of sending several compa-
MES Of the state militia TO Hot Springs,
and he hopes the principals and their
hackers in the proposed fight together
with all parties concerned or interested.
will not impose the necessity of ordering
the militia to the scene In order to stop
the fight Concluding his interview, Gov
ernor Clark said he did not want to sec
any blood shed as a result Of th Dugilists
refusal to refrain from makius prepara-
tions to fight He sincerely hoped that it
would be avoided.
IT am neither seeking nor sighting any
responsibility in this matter, he contin-
ued "and will do my duty"
When questioned in reference to the
proposition to change the affair into a
glove contest, Governor Clark said that
he could make no distinction between
glove contest and prize fight 1t was
prize fight 10 matter what it was called.
