THE DURRANT CASE.
Evidence ON Which the Prosecution
VIII Depend for Conviction.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept THE trial of
Theodore Durrant will be resumed on Tues
day, Monday being legal holiday. During
the pasffjwe small progress was made
in the taking of the testimony. No i'm
portant witnesses for the people have been
placed on the stand, and no material points
have yet been made against the defendant
The witnesses who have already testified
are merely paving the way for those to fol-
low. While their evidence is important in
showing that the crime has been committed
il does not point in the remotest degree to
the murderer. 1t becomes more and more
apparent that the defense will be negative
More hope will be placed in breaking the
chain of evidence presented by the prosecu-
ton than in any testimony he may give in
his own behalf. As yet the defendant $
attorneys have not been successful in their
efforts to confuse witnesses and lead them
into contradiction.
The real weighty evidence on which the
prosecution depended is to be furnished
by three school girls, who saw Durrant
on the stair with Miss Lamont on the day
she disappeared; Martin Quinland, an at
torney who saw the defendant walking to-
with a girl who answers Blanche Lamont's
description; Mrs. Leak, who from her

church by side door. and organist King,
about o'clock on the same afternoon was
surprised to see Durrant staggering into
the library of the church, painting, partially
clothed, and disheveled. 1t is these wit
nesses who will furnish the chief links in
the chain of evidence upon which a con-
viction will be asked and it will be the
testimony which the defendant will attack
with yigor. If the defense succeeds in
breaking down one of the witnesses they
consider they will have a fair chance for
acquittal. The prosecution, they say, will
have to prove every one of the links in
it's chain of circumstantial evidence.

tionally ugly, but with wonderfully
supple, and IL i may so speak, adlustab Die
manners. And TO match these he had an
extraordinary command OF the facial mus
cles. When In perfect repose, the clean.
shaven skin looked very like sheet OF
tight-drawn parchment, except that the
color was much browner than that OF
parchment. But. when he wished. he
could wrinkle up the entire service or his
face into series of concentric curveswhich
seemed to represent the ne plus ultra OF
human suavity and benevolence. But
they came so sudden and disappeared SO
completely that 1t was impossible not TO
harbor a suspicion that they were wholly
superficial, and that this many-wrinkled
smile stood in no vital relation to the
mans inner nature In fact, 1t reminded
me very much OF the grimaces OF an in
dia-rubber doh when you squeeze It's plas-
tic countenance.
II was said that the count had devel-
oped this talent for facial contortion TO
such an extent that he could, when he
chose, make one side OF his face assume
different expression from that OF the
other, SO as to be able TO present sympa-
thetic aspect to two different interiocu-
tors at the same time. This was, OF
course. not literally true, but l always
fancied that he turned natural defect
TO such good account that there was an
element of truth in the statement. For
whilst his right eye was IN all respects
normal, the lid OF the left eye dropped
permanently over the eye-balL. This eye
was, moreover, always suffused with an
excess Of moisture, which gave 1t some
what lachrymose appearance. This, no
doubt, he sometimes turned TO good ac-
count, when paying visit OF coincidence.
The explanation probably was that the
left eye was an artificial one, as the irri-
tation caused by such artificial eyes is apt
to over-stimulate the lachrymal glands.
At any rate, it was generally believed In
diplomatic circles that the count was
blind Of the left eye, though he himself
never acknowledged the defect.
