DURRANT GETS A RESPITE.
HE WAS TO HAVE BEEN EXECUTED
LAST FRIDAY.
SAVED At The eleventh HOUR.
Attorneys Contended That Superior Court
Acted Too Hastily In Sentencing
The Condemned Man.

A special from San Francisco says:
William Henry Theodore Durrant was
not hanged at San Quentin Friday af-
ter all, the supreme court Of California
having granted him another respite at
the eleventh hour.
Up to 4 o'clock Thursday afternoon,
when the news flashed over the wires
from Sacramento that the court, now
in session there, had granted writ Of
probable cause and instructed Warden
Hale not 10 carry out the execution Of
Durrant until further orders, there
was apparently no further hope for the
condemned murderer OF Blanche La
mont and Minnie Williams, as his at.
torneys had made futile effort to &C.
cure another writ Of habeas corpus in
the United States court, and had not
even been granted permission TO APP
peal from that decision to the supreme
court Of the United States.
Meanwhile, however, Attorney Du.
prey fastened to Sacramento and ap.
piled to the state supreme court for a
writ Of probable cause, for the pur-
pose OF staying the proceedings against
his client upon the grounds that no
official knowledge of the action OF the
supreme court of the United States in
the matter of Durrant's appealing from
the decision Of the federal court had
vet been received; that the superior
court had acted too hastily in SEN
fencing Durrant to be hanged Friday,
as the law required that he be given at
least sixty days grace; and thirdly,
that the tendency Of On appeal in the
supreme court affecting the condemn.
ed man was of itself sufficient cause
for stay Of execution.
The matter was partially argued in
chambers and later argued before the
full court and taken under advise.
meut. Shortly afterwards the court
announced its decision, granting the
writ applied for. in which oil the JUS
tices concurred.
When information of the reprieve
was given TO the condemned man,
Durrant received it without any great
: display of emotion but fell on his
knees and prayed silently for several
I. minutes
When Mrs. Durrant, the mother Of
the prisoner, reached the prison the
news was told to her. She said that
she had put her faith in God and felt
that He would not desert her. The
death veil was removed and Durran'
was carried down to the office, and II
will not again be placed over the
prisoner unless required by future de-
yelopments in the case.

GERMANY DEMANDS INDEMNITY.
she Insists That Hayti Shall Fay For
Mistrestinent OF Lueders.


Advices from Berlin state that the
German warship Gefon is under or
ders to sail for Port an Prince, Hayti,
this month in order to insist upon re-.
dress for the arrest Of Herr Lueders "a
German subject, and his unlawful inn
prisonment, for which Count Schwo-
rim, the German minister at Port al
Prince, has demanded indemnity.
Lueders is now believed to he in
Germany, having been released from
prison in order To avoid further COM
plications, the natives of Port an
Prince having threatened to mob the
German legation aud lynch Lueders.
The fitting out of the warship is being
fastened as much IA possible.
The officials of the German foreign
office do not believe the matter will DO
adjusted for some time to come because
the Haytian government has assumed
stubborn attitude. The German
newspapers are blaming the govern
ment for the delay in bringing Hayti
to terms,
The German version of this affair is
that bueders was sentenced to pay a
fine OF SiS and to undergo months
imprisonment for resisting Il police
man, which Lueders denies. There
upon he demanded second trial, OBJ
tanned il and witnesses testified that
they had not seen him strike the po-
lceman; but in spite of this Lueders
was resentenced, this time To pay n
fine of $500 and TO undergo years
imprisonment. The original trouble
between Lueders and the policeman,
it is claimed in his behalf, was due to
the latter forcing his way into his resi-
dence, contrary to law, in order to ar
rest one of his servants
After Lueders' second trial the Ger
man minister took the matter in hand,
and on October 18th he went to the
president of Hayti, Augustin Simon
Sam, and demanded in the name OF
the German emperor that Lueders be
set at liberty, and also demanding for
every day the latter had spent in pris-
on, twenty-three days in oil, an in
uchuity VI Sl,ooV III Roiu' iho MIN
lister added that for every other day
Lueders was kept prisoner after Dc
tober 18th, he, the representative OF
Germany, would demand an indemnity
of 81, 900 in gold.
President Sam at first refused to
grant the minister's demand and Lue-
ders remained in prison six days long
err, Thereupon the German minister
notified the Haytian government that
he had hauled down his flag aud had
sent the archives of the German lega-
ton to the United States, thus sever
ing oil diplomatic relations with the
government Of Hayti,
The action Of the German minister
| caused great deal Of excitement ut
Port au Prince. There were threats
to lynch the prisoner; the life of the
German minister was threatened; IL
was proposed to attack the legation,
and acting upon the advice of COUNSEL
Tors, who were not DESTROYS Of precipi-
tating further trouble, Lueders was
released by the Haytian government.

A Wedding Party OF Thirty Persons All

A cable dispatch from st. Petersburg
states that near Bielostok, Russian Po-
land, a wedding party was returning
from the church to the home Of the
bride. All were in one wagon, huge
vehicle drawn by eight horses.
The road along which they drove
crosses the raj road track on the level,
and the driver, either through careless
ness or ignorance of the train sched-
ule, pushed his swiftly moving horses
upon the crossing just as the express
was coming up.
The locomotive struck the vehicle
squarely, killing many members of
the party outright and manning others
so that they soon expired. Not a
member of the party Of thirty escaped.

She Tells How Thorn Murdered Guiden-
suppe and Dispcsed Of Body.
There was an extraordinary turn OF
affairs Wednesday in the Thorn
murder trial at Long Island City.
Mrs. Augusta Mack, who was indict-
ell together with her erstwhile para
mour, Martin Thorn, for the murder
OF her former lover, William Gnlden-
suppe, for whom she deserted her
legal husband, appeared in the role Of
a states witness against Thorn, TO
the CONSERVATION of the latter's law
yers.
The woman recited in Q dramatic
manner the story Of the assassination
OF Guldensuppe by Thorn, the dis
memberment Of the body, the part
that she played in the tragedy and oil
relative incidents before and after the
murder. Her story created the most
intense sensation, and now the great
murder mystery Of the year Is no
longer mystery, az one OF the per-
sons most interested has made clear
what the court and all the evidence
summoned would probably not have
done had she not spoken.
The startling announcement made
Tuesday that Mrs Mack had confessed
the murder Of William Guldensuppe
and implicated Martin Thorn was con-
frmed Wednesday morning when
court assembled by Judge August A.
Weller, who is assisting District At
torney Young in the prosecution.
When placed on the witness stand
Mrs. Mack said that she and Gulden-
suppe left New York between 8 and
10 o'clock the morning of June 25th,
and after they had crossed the ferry
they boarded trolley car which left
them at the Woodside cottage.

was done up in plaster of plaris. He
