A TEMPORARY HITCH IN THE DURRANT CASE,

concerning this case it is your sworn duty
to report it and the court will see that the
party is properly punished for it.
AS the court concluded Juror Brown
arose from his seat.
"Your Honor" he said, "would it be
proper for me to make a request OF you
with view to making statementP.',
SIT would not, Mr.. Brown" said the
court. If it were at the proper time l
would be pleased to hear from you"
But, your Honor" continued Mr..
Brown, 81 would ike to make state
ment."
mot now. Mr.. Brown; not now. will
listen to you at the proper time
Judge Murphy then ordered an adjourn
ment till 10 o'clock this morning, at which
time he particularly cautioned all venire-
men to be present.
The trial was over for the day, but the
rumors had only commenced to fly. Ten
minutes after the recess it seemed as If the
whole town was talking of nothing else
but the sudden turn affairs had taken and
buslly figuring on the possible outcome.
On several bulletin boards around town
notices had been posted that the erring
newspaper men were to be hauled over the
judicial Goals, raped on their moral
knuckles and jagged like so many hares.
Another rumor was to the effect that the
boy who had made the unsuccessful at
tack on Durrant had been found, as well
as the knife which it was reported the pris-
oner's father says he saw in the assailant' s
hands. Chief Jailer Sattler soon knocked
this latter story on the head. The boy was
not known and as far as he knew-and he
had watched the young fellow closely
there was no knife in his hands and none
of the deputies with him at the time had
seen any. The knife story was plainly and
palpably fake" Durrant's fathers story
of the blade being probably the natural re-
suit Of fear for his sons safety.
Rumor on rumor followed fast, but no
confirmation or denial OF any of them
could be had, for the reason that the
mouths of every one connected with the
case seemed to be sealed concerning it.
CPL state right now" said the District
Attorney to a couple of reporters, that
will say nothing concerning this case. The
first thing | know I'll be getting in con-
tempt of court mvself."
And his tone conveyed the idea that he
meant every word he said.
So it was with all the others. Not a
word could be got concerning the case, al
though it was pretty well settled that Gen
eral Dickinson had called the attention of
the court to the published interviews with
Nathan and Brown.
Just what effect all this excitement and
mystery and action will have on the
Durrant trial is not known. 1t is supposed,
however, that it will result in the release
of Mr.. Brown from the jury on peremptory
challenge by consent, after which the trial
will proceed as If nothing had happened.

STARVING IN A CEMETERY,
A Homeless and Friendless Woman
Found Lying on the Ground Near
Holy Cross Burial Ground.

A woman giving her name as Mrs. Jennie
Jones was found by R. D. Flye near Holy
Cross Cemetery yesterday lying on the
ground in a destitute and starving condi-
tlon. She had lost one shoe, and the IN
shod foot was badly swollen from severe
sprain. Five took the unfortunate creature
to the house of Mrs. Burke, which is in the
vicinity of the cemetery, who gave her
som ething to eat She had not tasted food
for two days and ate ravenously. She ac-
companied Officer Brakeman to the Girls
Training Home, 26 Hill street, where the
matron, Miss Baker, has since cared for
her.
She states that she is % years old, a
native of Dakota and that her husband
and child are dead. At nine years of age
she went on the stage, playing child parts,
and, when older, was a circus rider. She
states that she is stranger in San Fran
cisco and came from the South, making
her way by begging through the country.
She will be cared for at the home, which
is charitable institution for the unfortu-
nate of her sex, until she has recovered
from her half-demented state.

hours without destroying the character OF
the metal or any of its component ele-
ments. In edge tools, drills, picks and
the like, the points or edges are capable OF
finer finish and temper, and, 1t IS
shown, will last much longer than If
heated by any other system or heat, owing
to the fact that the electric current agi-
tates the molecules composing the metal
all in equal proportion, so that when the
cooling takes place they all set, or become
crystalliZed, at the same degree of heat.
This causes vastly closer refining of the
particles than is attainable by other pro-
cesses.
By Mr.. Burton's system forty-five rail-
road spikes, cold pointed, have been made
in one minute, and horseshoe can be
turned out every second. Steel hammers
are made at one heating-eye, face, head
and every thing-and bolt, threaded and
headed, is produced complete at one opera
ton. Three inches of a bar of steel, one
inch thick, have been drawn out to a
length of seven feet and a thickness of
one-quarter of an inch in one heating.
The heating of the metal is perfectly
even from end to end and all kinds of
metal can be worked-iron, steel, copper,
brass, nickel, etc. There is no smoke, no
dust, no ashes to be removed, no coal to
be handled and no unpleasant extraneous
heat; and whenever the metal is drawn
from the furnace the power is Immediately
stopped, thus saving waste OF energy and
unnecessary expense.
In the matter of drop forging piece can
be heated at one application and finished,
whereas it now takes four reheatings to
accomplish the same result by the ordi-
nary methods in vogue. Samples of this
as well as of some tools made can be seen
at the office OF the secretary, Louis SchloSS,
room "a. Croker building.
Another great advantage is the absence
of danger to the operative. It is impos-
sible to receive any shock, it is said, or to
experience the slightest indication of the
presence of the electric current, as only
from four to seven volts are required to do
the work.
The $4,000 machine ordered will be one
of the first ever constructed of its kind.
A small portable plant will accompany it,
capable of the smelling of five tons of ore
daily. Samples of ore have been received
from all over the coast, from Alaska to
Mexico-fully 500 of them-during the
past few weeks, and Mr. Burton saws there
is not one of them to which the process
cannot be successfully applied
Quite number of small forges are now
In use in various parts of the country, and,
If possible, the company will have a com
plete blacksmith's outfit run on Mr.. Bur-
toms principle at the Mechanics Fair.
A Syracuse IN. W test will serve to
show a comparison between the Burton
process and the customary methods. Bv
the electric forge a horseshoe was pre-
pared alta cost of little over one-tenth of
a cent, the time being forty-four seconds.
BY the coal forge the cost was over half a
cent, and the time required eleven min
utes.

president of the company, DR.. George E.
Davis vlce-president, Louis Schloss secre-
tary and N. A. Harris treasurer.
