n Test Case to Come Up for Hearing
in san Fernando To-day.
Los ANGELES, Sept. 27.-Al Forman, g
ticket broker. will tomorrow have bis
preliminary examination at San Fer
nando before the Justice of the Peace
there on the charge of forgery. Forman
has the American Ticket Brokers' Asso-
citation at his back.
The defense viii try to show that when
a ticket is sold to broker by the original
purchaser the seller also conveys the au-
thority 10 sign his name for all purposes
necessary to give the ticket value. The
railroad company contends that this is
not the case and that when the buyer OF a

SAN Francisco, Sept. 27.-To-day was
the tamest session of the Durrant case. 1t
was expected that the defense would con-
tinue in its efforts to show that Durrah1
was at the college on the afternoon OF the
murder, but instead II switched OIL 10
technical matter connected with the
church. This was, in consequence,
tame day of prosaic details about Inc
sun-burners, where Durrant alleges ne
was employed. The defense showed that
there was defective ventilation around
them, and that their theory as to gas haV-
ing overcame Durrant on the afternoon
of the murder was not altogethe. unten-
able.
Edwin X. Carpenter, gasfitter, VINO
examined the un-burners at the request
of the defense, testified that ventliators
above them afforded no draft, and that he
had found the damper in one OF tnem
closed His investigation showed that a
person in the position Durrant alleges ne
was in fixing the apparatus connected
with the sun-burnerS might nave Deen
overcome by an escape OF gas. Inc gas
supply connected with the burners was
turned on at a point sevenly-hve feet
from the sun burners and on the floor
below them. Anyone fixing the appa-
ratus, if alone, as Durrant is alleged to
have been, would have, he said. to turn
on the gas before ascending to the burn
erS.
Robert W. MARYLAND, an electrician,
another witness who visited the scene of
the sun-burners, testified for the defense,
producing drawings of the sun burners
and a duplicate of the electric vibrator
used in one of them to ignite the gas. HIS
testimony in connection with this was
favorable to the defense.
1t is apparent that the defense will not
confine itself to the alibi, but that it will
fight the case exhaustively on every
point. The case to-day went over until
Tuesday.
