for New Trial.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 3.-Theodore Dur
rants afiidavits and motion for new trial
proceeded to their close today. In his ar
gument General Dickinson, counsel for the

deily testimony in the case when the wit
nesses had been excluded from the court
room; In admitting certain Jurors and not
excluding others from the Jury box and in
not compelling Miss Cunningham, a reporter,
to reveal the source OF her information re-
garding the testimony TO be given by Mrs.
Leak, who said that she saw Durrant ara
Blanche Lamont entering Emanuel church
on the day the latter disappeared.
In reply District Attorney Barnes sub
mitted brief citing authorities without
argument. The court announced that he
would pass upon the motion for new trial
on Friday II Is considered certain that the
motion will be denied and that sentence
