ROME SHAKEN UP.
Great Panic in the Eternal City, but
No Lives Lost.

No Lives Lost.
ROME, Nov. IA severe and pro-
longed earthquake shock was felt here at
4 :38 this morning. Many houses swayed
badly, walls cracked and pictures fell
from walls. The people ran panic-strick-
en- into the streets, and serious disaster
was apprehended. Happily the first
shock seems to have ended the subterra-
neous disturbance without serious dam
age. Some idea of the alarm created
may be gathered from the fact that pris-
oners broke out in open revolt and tried
to escape. The vatican buildings were
severely shaken, but the pope was per-
fectly tranquil. He sent to the nearest
police depot to inquire if there had been
any loss of life or serious damage.
The series of shocks lasted II seconds.
Two clocks in the observatory were
stopped and the old tower of the Roman
college cracked. Two houses collapsed
and it is reported several persons are in
jured. Four palaces and the Bank of
Italy are uninha bitable. The Pallacio
Odeschaicie and FIVE other palaces are
seriously injured. The Vatican build
ings, the Quirlnal, the main railroad
station and the ministry Offices are also
reported to have sustained some damage.

THE PENALTY IS DEATH.
Durrant Convicted of the Murder of
Blanche Lamont.

Blanche Lamont.
SAN Francisco, Nov. Theodore
Durrant, assistant superintendent of the
Emanuel Baptist church Sunday school,
was today convicted of the murder of
Blanche Lamont, for which he has been
on trial since July % last, The jury was
out 20 minutes, and arrived at the ver-
diet on the first ballot. AS there was no
recommendation of mercy, the punish
ment was fixed at death.
1t was exactly 81 minutes from the
time the jury left the courtroom to the
time the verdict was announced, but
that time was all taken up in delibera-
ton. In fact, there was no deliberation
at all. The jury had evidently decided
upon verdict before they left the box.
II was 8 "a when they fled out of the
courtroom into the grand jury room
which had been placed at their disposal.
It took the II men until 80 O'Clock be-
fore they settled themselves comfortably,
and at 3 80 a knock on the door an
nounced to the anxious walters that a
verdict had been found. 1t took Just
five minutes of actual time to elect a
foreman and take the one ballot neces-
sary.
The scene in the courtroom when the
verdict was announced will never be
forgotten by those who were present.
Judge Murphy finished his charge a
The Dalles daily chronicle. [volume] (The Dalles, Or.) 1890-1948, 1895-11-02


though there was supposed to be little
prospect OF verdict being returned be-
fore or o'clock in the evening, the
throng of spectators, who had remained
in the overcrowded courtroom all the aft
ernoon to hear the judges charge, set
tied themselves back in their seats to
await the return of the jury. Mrs. Dur
rant and the prisoner talked and laughed
together as if an acquittal were fore
gone conclusion. They were joined by
half dozen friends, and the conversa-
ton was becoming animated, when it
became whispered about that the jury
had agreed upon verdict.
In an instant hush fell upon the lit
tie circle that had gathered around the
prisoner. Durrant's face, always pale,
assumed a ghastly hue, and his mother
was speechless. Then the big doors at
the rear of the room opened, and the
members of the jury filed. in and took
their seats in the box.
In the intense excitement which fol-
lowed, the room, although it was filled
to its utmost capacity, was almost as
quiet as if it had been vacant. Judge
Murphy, who had retired to his cham
bers, was summoned, and took his place
upon the bench. Clerk Morris asked
the usual question, as to whether the
jury had agreed upon a verdict. Fore
man Warren Dutton arose and replied
in the affirmative, saying:
eve, the jury, find the defendant,
William Henry Theodore Durrant,
guilty of murder in the frst-degree."
As the aged foreman, pale and trem-
bling, read the words which fixed Dur
rants fate, a low rumbling noise like
the roar of mob arose from the rear Of
the courtroom. The next moment, men
were cheering wildly, while women hys-
terically wept in their excitement. The
bailiff raped loudly for order, but the
tumult continued for a minute before
anything like quiet could be brought
torney Barnes arose and asked that a
day be set upon which the sentence of
death should be passed upon the pris-
ouer. Judge Murphy said that SEN
tence would be passed next Friday,
upon which day he would also set the
day for the trial of Durrant on the
charge of numbering Minnie Williams.
During the tumult which followed the
announcement of the verdict, Durrant
and his mother were lost sight of, ex-
cept by the few who sat near them. AS
the last words of the verdict were
uttered, Durrant made a spasmodic
effort to arise to his feet, but before he
could do so, his mother, with a half
sigh, half moan, threw her arms around
his neck and sank back into her chair.
His mothers grief seemed to make
Durrant forget his own position. and for
the next few minutes he sat with his
arms around her neck, trying to sooth
her. The long strain, however, had
completely shattered her self-control,
and it was some time before Mrs. Dur
rant could leave the courtroom.
