nine played its first game yesterday after
noon with the Collamores, a picked nine

was, about 800 persons witnessed it. The

well and demonstrated that they have
some excellent material. Their oppo-

The Final Argument Before the Supreme
Court VIII BE BY Able Men.
Washington, May Sit is not known
what time will be given to the rear
rangement of the income tax cases
which are to be begun in the supreme
court Monday next. The order of the
court granting a hearing did not speci-
fy as to the time. and the chief jus
tice is quoted as having said that since
the order was made the argument
would be at length. On the first argu-
ment about IL hours time, equivalent
to three supreme court days, were Civ
en- to the subject. Then three attor-
neys were heard on each side. The
chief Justices order in the present in
stance provides for the hearing Of only
two counsel on each side. 1t is there
fore probable the argument will be ex-
tended over at least two days. and
IL is possible counsel will seek to have
ii cover even more time.
A motion for a rehearing was for a
second hearing on the points on which
the court was divided. but Attorney
General Olney stated in his brief on
the subject for a rehearing that in
case the petition should be granted he
would ask TO have the entire question
reopened. saying the government had
never been heard as to whether a tax
on rentals or dividends on bonds was
constitutional as an original PROPOSE
ton. and intimating he should like TO
have an opportunity to go into this
question at length.
AS the entire question is new to Jus
tice jackson. in the sense that he has
heard none OF the oral arguments. IL
is considered not improbable that more
or less argument on all sides will be
permitted. Whatever is the conclusion

arguments, no reversal OF the opinion

TO SAVE HIS NECK
Durrant's Lawyers Say Their Client
has a Good Defense.
JUST AS THEY PUT 1T NOW
There Is a Mysterious Man With a
Bad Reputation Upon Whom
the Attorneys Hope to
Fasten the Crime.

San Francisco, May 5.-Now that
Theodore Durrant has been remanded
to the county jan TO stand trial on the
charge OF having murdered Miss
Blanche Lamont on April last in
Emanuel Baptist church. in this city.
and Miss Marian Williams on April II
In the same edifice. the lawyers for the
defense are seeking to stem the tide
OF public opinion by telling on what
lines they will conduct the case The
attorneys for the accused say they viii
prove:
That the yard of the church has
been a trysting place for people Iiv-
ing In the neighborhood: that Durrant
had not a reputation as a lady Killer
that another member (now an ex-
member) had; that the latter frequent
ly visits the church. though now a
nonresident; that this person was one
whom all the young ladies of the
church distrusted; that he frequently
took liberties with them; that upon
one occasion he was alone with a
young lady In the vestry and his ac-
tions We're such as to cause her to
have a serious hysterical attack; that
only desire to avoid a public scandal
prevented his arrest and prosecution

during April. present at the services In
the church. TO which he alone pos
sessed a key-one that fitted the side
door: that this person knew. and was
intimately acquainted with both
Blanche Lamont and Miss williams;
that this person has been married and
divorced, and has also been an inmate
OF an insane asylum.
Durrant's attorneys conclude by say
ing that they are confident that be-
fore many days the burden OF guilt
will be openly borne by the responsible
criminal. II is strange and signifi-
cant fact, however. that Durrant's
lawyers have prevented him from
making the statements which. they
claim. will exonerate him.
Durrant's refusal to explain things
seemingly connecting him with the
crime. while In the same breath he
-doggedly maintained that he Is In
nocent. Is largely responsible for the
conviction among the majority OF peo-
pie that he Is guilty.
San Francisco. May 5.-The horror OF
the Emanuel Baptist church murders
some weeks ago resulted in the suicide
OF one morbidly sensitive youth, and
now the disappearance OF a young girl
is ascribed 10 the same cause. Stella

Hughes OF the Oakland ferry service.

Emanuel church.
Last Thursday she went out walking
with her sister Nellie just after lunch
con. When they resumed their walk
she rested a while. then asked her sis
ter to- accompany her out to Bakers
beach. near the Seal rocks. Having
some other work TO do. Miss Nellie
could not accompany her. So. remark
ing that she would go by herself. she
left the house and has not been seen
since. 1t is supposed that the accounts
OF the church murders deranged her
mind and caused her to leap into the
ocean.

Washington. May 5.-Doctor Salmon,
chief OF the bureau of animal industry.
being interrogated as to Mr.. Armour's
statement Of a constant average loss
Of between IL and Is cents on each
head of cattle slaughtered by his house
during a long period of time, said he
had no criticisms to make as to the
veracity Of the statement as far as 1t
goes; but. he added. Mr. Armour sepa-
rates the dressed beef department
from the transportation trade and from
the various other departments OF his
business which are closely related. 1t
is currently rumored and generally be-
lieved, that the firm of Armour & Co.
have about 5000 refrigerator cars roll
ing over the various railroads Of the
United States. carrying dressed beef
to their customers. And some wicked
ly curious people declare that they cam
not tell. when they buy dressed beef,
how much of the money goes for trans
portation and how much for meat.
Possibly, II Mr.. Armour will state the
losses incurred by his firm in the trans
portation of beef during the same peri
cd of time that he covered in stating
the losses upon the beef itself, the
further losses of that firm would so
excite public sympathy that those who
eat beef would eat the more, and those
would eat IL, too, who never ate IL be-
fore. However, before IL is known the
loss Of Armour & Co. on the business
of their refrigerator cars in carrying
dressed meats. the public may refrain
from tears"
