A Witness for the Defense Not SO Import
ant az Was Hoped.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 8.-The defense
In the Durrant case this afternoon sum
moned to the stand two OF the most i'm
portant witnesses that have been called
since the prosecution closed it's case
One of the witnesses materially aided
the defense from the fact that upon
cross-examination he failed to give inn
portant testimony expected by the
prosecution. The examination OF the
other witness had only Just begun when
the court took o recess until tomorrow
morning, but in the short time the wits
ness was On the stand he testified to oae
important fact which was directly op-
posed to what the de tense had hoped to
esta blish.
The most Important witness of the
day WAS Charles II Lenahan, the Young
man whom the defense contends was
mistaken for Durrsnt by Pawnbroker
Oopenheim. Ienahan, who does not
bear striking resemblance to the
prisoner, said on April he attempted
to pawn small diamond ring, similar
to the ono worn by Blanche Lamont, at
Oppenheim's shop. The witness said
that he asked Oppenheim the same
questions and received the same answers
that Oppenheim quoted in relation to
the conversation he had with the young
man that Oppenhoim testified was Dur
rant. Then came the surprises to the
defense, which counterscted nearly all
OF the strength gained from witness
testimony. Lenahan said he tried to
pawn the ring in the afternoon, while
Oppenheim testified that Durrant en-
tered his shop in the morning.
Attorney Duprey was considerably
disconnected by the statement Of the
witness and endesvored to impeach
Lenahsn's testimony by reading a let
Ter written by Lenshan to the attorney
for the defense in which he divulged
the fact that he had tried to pawn
small ring at Oppenheim's on the same
day Durrant WAS said to have entered
the place. The court interrupted
Duprey, however, and let him read only
such parts Of the letter as referred to
the question at issue. Duprey then
asked that the letter be- admitted in
evidence and ct the close OF the struq-
gle over this move court adjourned for
the day.

THE DEAD SOLDIER.

General William Malone. the Hero of
the Crater and Confederate soldier of
great ability and true gallantry, died
yesterday afternoon at Washington,
where he was stricken down few DAYS
ago by apoplexy. The record of his
life and description Of his last illness Is
given elsewhere in The TIMES, but in
this connection it may be we'll to add
few words of comment on the career OF
this remarkable man.
No one in Virginia. probably, had
more political enemies than General
Malone and none stronger personal
friends. Of an iron will and innexible
resolution, his qualities as leader were
best shown as soldier, and it is in
praise Of his bravery in battle and his
Skill as commander that his country
men most readily agree. From the time
That he entered the field as q colonel OF
the Sixth Virgins Infantry TO the close
of the civil war, his career was ono con-
tinuous record Of successes. earning for
him high place in the estim alton of
Gen. Robert e. Lee as q soldier and
strategist.
On the close Of the war he devoted
himself to railroad matters, but
managed to And time to figure largely
In politics. Disagreeing with tina
leaders OF Virginia Democracy on the
question of settling the State debt he
organized the Readjustsr party, which
elected Colonel Cameron governor and
legislature that sent General Malone
to the United States Senate. In that
body he sided with the Republicans,
and after that decision his life WAS one
OF constant political turmoil.
AS pioneer in movement for which
the time was not ripe and the condi-
tions unsatisfacs tory, no was finally
forced from the field; but not until he
had shown ell the qualities of leader
ship suited more TO the stern arena OF

Drawing Party Lines.

EDITOR OF THE TIMEs:-In yester-
days World we are told that the Hon.
Jno. w Daniel is to speak in the Opera
House Wednesday night in opening the
campaign for the Democratic ticket in
this district. The question naturally
comes up why does Senator Daniel feel
called on to come here to draw the party
lines that have not yet been drawn by
the people or the press.
The only party paper we have, the
World, proclaims that the Citizens
Ticket is not Repu blican, PopuIist nor
Prohibition, and that all of these parties
should feel as much attached to the
Democratic ticket as to the Citizens
Ticket.

The notice filed to-day is signed by

the defendant, and the points on which
1T Is urged that the appeal be dismissed
are substantially as follows: 1.-THE
purpose OF the bill was to secure to the
appellant the right to vote at an election
which was to be held on August 90.
That time has passed and the appellant
was either allowed to vote st the cleo.
ton or he was not. If allowed to vote
his cause of action is gone. II not al
lowed to vote no action Of this court can
now secure him the opportunity of do :
Ing so. n neither case ia there any
longer subject matter upon which tn 9
appeal can operate. The court is asked
reversing the decision of the district
circuit court OF appeals below to secure
the appellant the right to do something
on day and time now past. Il is
now impossible to grant the relief
sought. The court is asked to express
lta opinion upon sn issue which nc
longer exists, and upon which it's iudp
ment would be purely sps culative.''
