SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 15.-Since
the retirement of Juror Brown, the Sc
lection of four additional jurors for the
trial of Theodore Durrant has caused
the police department a great deal of
worry. Captain of Detectives Lees is
suspicious of the deputy county clerks
entrusted with the drawing of venire-
men. He says the same officials were
connected with the trial for counter
feiting of M. D. Howell, when the jury
disagreed The police are still working
to ascertain the source of the money
which is alleged to be used unspar-
ingly in connection with the prepara-
ton of Durrant's defense. The prose-
cution thinks the money is being raised
by subscription.
Tomorrow a new panel of 125 venire-
men will be in court and it is hoped
to secure four more jurymen.
