SAN FRANCISCO, March 9.-On
April 6 next, a. year will have passed
since the murder of Blanche Lamont
and yet Theodore Durrant, who was
convicted of her murder last NoVem-
Der is still in the county jail awaiting
the final action of the state supreme
court in the case.
Immediately after Durrant's convic-
ton, an appeal was taken but the case
has not been presented to the supreme
court owing to requests for additional
time made by both sides
The last postponement took place a
week ago, when the prosecution was
granted twenty days in which to file
bill of exceptions. At the end of this
time il is believed that the case will
be presented to the supreme court, but
a decision is not expected for several
months. Durrant was sentenced to be
hanged on February q, but the slow
manner in which justice is meted out
to murderers in this state makes 1t
probable that he will not meet his
death much before the close of this
year Meanwhile the prisoner is spend
ing his time at the county Jail much
the same as the rest of the inmates.
He has few visitors and devotes much
of his time to reading and writing. He
has written a history of his life, and,
lately, he is said TO have begun the
study of law.

ing his latter days Lebaudy was de-
Tended against his enemies, by Mile.
Marsy, the we'll known Partisan actress
to whom he wished to leave his for
tune, but who refused to accept it.
Each charge will be examined sepa-
rately and the case promises to be in
teresting, although it is believed nearly
all the facts in the case have already
been made public and they show that
Uric de Cevery alone must have de-
frauded the young conScript out OF
over a million francs.
The brothers de Civri were the first
to be examined. Mile. MaFsy, the ac-
tress to whom Lebaudy left his for
tune, was attired in deep mourning.
She testified that NJ. Lebaudy told her
that de Civri attacked him because he
refused to give 5000 france for the pa
per. General Boersermel testified that
Joseph de Civri's attitude betokened his
having asked a favor of Lebaudy and
that he had been refused.

They VIII Form a Syndicate and
Loan China .16,OOO,OOO Pounds
Victory Over the French.

LONDON, March 9.-The Times
financial article says: Arrangements
point to the completion of an Anglo
German syndicate to obtain Chinese
loan of f16,O0O,OOO which will possibly
be issued in two installments. We sin

what we hear the Baltimore & Ohio re-
construction plan will require nearly
100000, 900 pounds"

concluded at per cent, repayabIe in
thirty-six years and secured on Gus
toms receipts. This is brilliant vic
tory for the Anglo-German over the
French syndicate.
