Another Case I'm Which Theodore Dur
rant II Implicated.

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 3.-The prose-
cutors OF Theodore Durrant are mistaken
IL they think that attorneys for the de-
tense have abandoned Charles H. Clarke as
a witness. On the contrary. the interrog-
atories to be put to Clarke have been for
warded to Boston. and If Eugene Deuprey
is sincere in what he says he expects
Clarke to stick to his original statement
that he saw Blanche Lamont with a man
other thar Durrant on a Powell-street car
on April 3. The story printed yesterday
that a woman visiting Durrant's house on
the night Minnie Williams was murdered
heard Durrant burning something that
smelled like burning cloth is repudiated by
both the prosecution and the defense.
Deputy Attorney Burns says he never
heard Of the woman.
There is another story about Durrant in
circulation in the mission that the police
have not been able TO trace. 1t Is said that
a year ago Durrant was very near to Jail
on a very serious charge. The alleged VIC
tim in this case was "a young girl not yet
eleven years OF age. She went to the
church with the young man, according TO
the report, and on her return 10 her home
told such a story OF what she suffered at
his hands that the child's parents proposed
having him arrested for felony. The terror
of making their child's misfortune public
however, and the fear that the stigma
would remain with her through life, was so
great that in the end they determined TO
let the man go unpunished rather than in
t,,re their daughter's character. Durrant's 8
ATTORNEYS say the story Is false.

INTERNATIONAL CONTEST.
Yale, Oxford and Cambridge Oarsmen
VIII Get Together.

NEW YORK, Aug. 3-The international
contest between the athletics OF Yale and
Oxford and Cambridge, IL arrangements
can be made as successfully as in the case
of last years meeting, will take place next
year. The Yale oarsmen are anxious for
test Of strength and skill with the Oxford
or the Cambridge crew. In boating matters
at New Haven, Robert j. Cooks word is
law. While in England. Mr.. Cook did not
meet any of the Oxford or Cambridge Of
f1cials. but at the London Rowing Club he
obtained a very clear idea Of how the old
varsity" oarsmen regarded such meet
ing. That they regarded it favorably is
shown by the fact that after the race at
New London last June cablegram was re-
ceived by Yale man from English univer-
sity men saying that they thought match
could be arranged for this summer or fall
The answer was sent back that IL was too
late 10 consider SUCH i match Now things
have gone so far that Henri G. Di Sibeur
president of the Yale navy, has been asked
to call a meeting of The rowing authori-
ties to take action. The advisory COM
mittee, which has not held regular meet
Ing since 1888, will not be called upon, but
several of its members will be among the
number OF those who will pass upon the
matter. The men who will doubtless be in
vited to aid In the necessary deliberations
are Robert j. Cook. George A. Adee, ex-
Captain Ives. Jack Harvell and Perry Bal
lou. From prominent Yale graduate of
the class OF 1869 1t was learned that the
meeting would take place as soon as possi-

average speed made by the ST. Louis in her
previous voyage from SOUTHAMPTON was
ie.17 knots, but she covered a distance OF

average on this trip her time would have
been six days fifteen hours.

parently disabled steamer, with black fun
