Effort Of the Defense in the Durrant
Case.
TRYING GOESTABLISH An ALIBI FOR him
District Attorney and Police Scofi
at the Charge.
CLERGYMAN'S HANDWRITING

SAN FRANCISCO September 26.-The
district attorney and the police scott at the
attempt made by the defense in the Dur.
rant case to fasten the crime upon Rev.
Mr.. Gibson. They caid, in response to q
question. that no order would be issued for
the clergyman's arrest. Rev. Mr. Gibson
himself denied that he had written the
names on the newspaper. as charged by
Attorney Deuprey.
In reference to an Omaha dispatch stating
that Durrant is known to have received a
letter from Blanche Lamont the day after
she disappeared, Mr.. Deuprey said he knew
nothing of such matter.
The handwriting of the Rev. George Glib
son is destined to play an important part
in the great trial In his opening state
ment. Attorney Deuprey said that the writ
ing on the paper inclosing Blanche La
mont's rings and that on the wrapper ad-
dressed to Mrs. Noble were similar to the
penmansaip Of the pastor of Emanuel
Church. In a very adroit way he cast sus-
picion on the minister, and the defense will

Testimony Begun.
After a recess Mrs. Matilda Durrant,
mother Of the prisoner, took the stand as
the first witness for the defense. She told
about her own birth and marriage in To.
ronto. Canada, where Theodore was born.
The family went to San Francisco in De-
cember. 1879 She detailed the childhood of
the prisoner. and his education at various
schools. During vacation he worked at
various occupations. He had money in the
bank. She testified that on the morning OF
April her son was dressed in a blue chew
lot suit, the blue trousers of which she iden-
titled, and the garment was introduced in
evidence. Mrs. Durrant stated that her son
returned home that evening shortly after 9
O'Clock, dressed in the same blue cheviot
suit. He wore no overcoat She testified
that the trousers were made to order by a
local tailor. When Theodore left home on
the morning of April he kissed his mother
goodbye and saluted her in the same man
ner when he returned at night. The family
dined that evening at 6:15. but the witness
said Theodore had little appetite, and he
didn't look well. At o'clock that evening
he took his mother to a street car, and

said: THE writing on the paper inclosing
