DURRANT IN THE CHURCH.
Organist King Testifes Regarding
His Appearance.

Or8on1st King Testthes Regarding
His Appearance.
Durrants movements in Emmanuel Bap-
tist Church were described to the jury at
San Francisco yesterday by the prosecu-
ton as he appeared after his alleged trav-
els from the Normal School on the after
noon of April B.
From the time he entered the church,
about 4:3O. 1t is the claim Of the prosecu-
ton that he was occupied until o'clock
in perpetrating the murder. At he was
seen in the church by another witness.
George R. King. the church organist, who
occupied the stand all Of yesterday.
The murderer of Blanche Lamont, after
having killed her, locked the door to the
belfry, broke the lock and took the knobs
off the door and threw them under the bel
fry door. 1t was then necessary for him
to cross a space above the ceiling to a
rear garnet of the church, from which there
was a passage down to the basement.
1t was :lown this rear passage that Dur
rant came when he burst on Kings view.
He stopped in space between partly
opened folding doors when he saw King
sitting al a piano in a corner and when
King asked him what was the matter he
Gid not at once reply. When he did reply
1t was to explain that he had been fixing
a sun burner above the ceiling and that he
had been overcome by escaping gas.
Durrants appearance was so startling
that King ran to drug store block and
half distant at his suggestion, to get him
a stimulant.
Upon first entering the church King had
detected the odor of escaping gas, the only
thing in his testimony favorable to Dur
rant, and this led him to enter the closet
used for library where the body of Min
ME Williams, was afterward found. At
that time he did not Durrants coat
and hat in the room adjoining the closet,
but after his return he entered the room
with Durrant and the latter's coat and hat
were then lying on a box.
The door to this room was usually lock-
ed, but when King arrived at the church
he found the door open. Only Durrant
and King had keys to it.
Miss Lucille Turner was on the stand for
a few minutes to say that she was not in
the church on the day of the murder. Her
testimony was to clear up point left in
doub. by Mrs Leak, who had testified
that from her front window she had seen
Durrant enter the church with a young
lady she said looked like either Blanche
Lamont or Miss Turner.
The case went over till Friday on ac-
count of the Jewish holiday today, to ac-
commodate two of the Jurors.
The prosecution will complete its direct
case early next week. The opening state
ment of the defense is waited with much
interest. 1t will be the first intimation of
what It expects to prove. 1t has been said
that an alibi for Durrant would be shown,
and, further. that another man than Dur
rant went into the church when the pris-
oner is said to have entered it.

CHOLERA in fHE ORIENT.
Over 1900 Deaa III. II Japan From the
Disease.

hAseNSc'
Notwithstanding the efforts of the
Chinese and Jabaness Officials to suppress
the news in regard To the cholera, the
truth has at last come to light concerning
the plague. japan and North China are
fairly alive with cholera germs. Siberian
officials have deoFared' Japanese ports in
fected, and from Official sources it is learn
ed that over 1900 people have died In
Japan from the plague since its start in
the Pescadores. II
In China the disease has gained firm
foot-hold. Advices by the steamer Rio
Janeiro report that in Toxic the heat Is
terrific, and the disease germs have been
nursed by the climate into virulent life.
On the Rio Janeiro little could be learned
concerning Yokohama, but nevertheless the
plague is raging there. In China at Hio
Fow the disease is spreading rapidly. Miss
Turner and the child of Dr. and Mrs. Nc
Farland of the Chu Chat London mission
We're stricken and died. At Marking much
illness prevails among the foreigners, many
of them having been forced to flee from
the country.
The ravages of cholera in Japan are far
greater than have been reported. Up to
August %. just before the Rio Janeiro
sailed, 1853 deaths from the disease were
reported.
