Prosecution Makes a strong Case Against
the Young Man.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 23.-PrObabl
the most important witness in the Dur
rant trial on Friday was Adolph Open
helm, the pawnbroker, who said that
a few days after the murder a man
whom he recognized as Durrant
came to his store and tried to sell one
of the RINGS taken from the dead girls
fingers and sent to her aunt through
the mail This ring was picked out by
the witness from among the three
taken from Miss Lamont by the
murderer. 1t had a chip diamond in a
shield on the top and was otherwise pc
culiar Its popularity is what Open
helm said attracted his attention. The
incident happened within few days of
his birthday, and that, he said, fixed the
time in his mind
The case consists of having shown
by reputable witnesses that Durrant
was in Miss Lamont's company on the
morning of the day of the murder, and
that he met her at the school and
accompanied her to the church, where
he was Seen III Stu tACibCu VI NoAidpoCN

This and the incide hts of the attempted
sale of the ring and of his not hav-
ing attended a lecture when he
should have been there, will face the
defense when it comes forward to put
on its case next week. The defense
&c still confident and reticent and
though many rumors as to what it will
try to prove have been set afiOat, moth
ing authoritative has yet been learned.
