One of the News couriers Just returned,

present point in danger of massacre, now
that the Jackson Hole citizens are all
butchered. He reports that the smoke VI
a large fire can today be seen several
miles south of the Grand Teton in the

SAN FRANCISCO, July c6.-On this,
the fourth day of the trial of Theodore
Durrant for murder of Blanche Lamont
the work of choosing a jury began in
earnest Slow progress was mde. OF tif-
teen examined cnly one was passed. and
he may be challenged oy the defense later
on. The main question of the prosecu-
ton to jurors is "Would yoa convict
man and inhIct the death penalty on cir
cumstantial eyidence?' The defendants
questions are based upon the jurors
familiarity with the newspaper comments
upon Durrant and the crime of which he
is 1ccused. Almost all the Jurors sum
moned have formed impressions which it
will require strong evidence to remove.
1t is apparent that the defense will
make strong fight on the techncalities
and will take advantage Of every loop
hole. Counsel for the prisoner lay traps
f.r the Judge with the apparent purpose
OF leading him into wrong ruling which
may form the basis of an appeal to a
higher curt. The nun Der of well-dressen

in some OF the most sensational crimes
that were ever committed in the state.
He is known to have murdered three
men,. While serving term in the peni-
tentiary at Folsom he conspired with a
number of other desperate characters to
lead Jail break. At the expiration of
his sentence Fredericks smuggled num-
Der of weapons into prison, and in the
outbreak that followed three convicts
were killed. A few months later Freder-
icks killed a brakeman in Nevada county
who attempted to put him off a freight
train. and when Sheriff Pascoe tried to
arrest him Fredericks killed him. After
he was convicted and sentenced to be
hanged for the murder of Cashier Her
rick, Fredericks feigned insanity, but
few weeks ago he gave up hope of a COM
mutation OF sentence and since then has
discussed his fate stoically.

to the effect that Rev. Thomas MoSwee-
ney of San Francisco of st. Francis de
Salle's church. Oakland, would be pro
NOTED to the bishopric in she Roman
Catholic church made vacant by the
death of Bishop Manogue of the Sacra-
mento diocese.
In reference to the publication, Rev.
Father Grace, who has had charge of the
affairs of she church in this diocese since
the death of Bishop Manogue, says that
he is quite SIRE that he would have re-
ceIved notification from Rome had any
action been taken with regard to the
bishopric In this diocese. ana that he
had received no information whatever.
A special dispatch to the Bee from Oak
land says
1.-The report is not sustained by any
evidence here. Neither McSweeney' s
ctrates nor ahy of the prominent Catho-
lies know OF it. Father Quill assistant
pastor of st. Francis dc. Sales says that
McSweenev's name was not submitted to
hel council at Rome. Before Bishop
Manogue died he sent to Rome the
names Of Fathers Grace of Sacramento,
Lynch of Virginia City and coleman OF

council were Fathers O'Connor of Stock

DREAD DEFICIT
Adequate Accommodation Not Provided BY
University Regents

University Regents
OAKLAND, July 26.-The failure of the
regents of the university at their last
meeting to provide adequate accommo-
dations for the students at the coming
term promises tn throw the institution
into confusion. The professors and in
structoIs are 10 oking forward to the open
ing of the school with some anxiety as
great influx of new students is expected.
These. together with the older students.
will more than fill every class room in the
buildings.
The whole trouble originated in desire
of the regents to keep the expenditures
of the institution within its revenues.
Rather than face deficit they have pre-
ferred to let matters stand and retrench
on the supplies furnished. The regents
had in contemplation many important
Improvements connected with the build
ings. They have concluded that it would
be unwise to deliberately vote appropra-
tions at the beginning Of the term cuff
cient to bring about the very deficit
dreaded. Therefore the improvements
