San Quentin, Cal, June 3.-Theodore
Durrant seems TO be breaking down. A
member of the death watch was seated
at his side last night looking down
upon him as he tossed and tumbled in
restless sleep. The warden was at
once notified of the change in Durrant's
demeanor. Orders were issued to in
crease the death watch and to MAIN
tain the vigil with greater care than
before.
Captain Edgar commanded that a
guard be stationed every minute of the
day and night in the cage with the
condemned man. Whatever Durrant
may do the eyes of a guard will be
upon him. Three men will watch him
until he dies on the gallows.
DurrantS father carried to the con-
demned man yesterday the news that
the United States district court had de-
MED the writ of habeas corpus and that
the next fight for his life must be made
at Washington before the supreme
court.
The elder Durrant wept yesterday as
he told his son the story, but he babe
the condemned mar TO be of good
cheer and not to lose heart until the
last hope is gone. If the journey is
made without accident a. return stay
ing the execution may be served by
telegraph to the warden. The son said
he would be brave. AS he spoke TO his
father a wire screen and wooden bars
separated them.

CASE OF VALENCIA.
Investigation Is Now Being Made at
CienfuegoS.

Washington, June st is said at the
state department that the firing on
the Ward liner Valencia by the Spanish
cruiser Maria Mercedes. at the entrance
of the harbor of Guatenamo, Cuba. is
under investigation. The United States
vice-consul at CienfuegoS entered a
protest against the conduct of the
Spanish officers and cruisers and the
Havana officials Immediately sent
naval officer down to CienfuegOs to
make an investigation, upon the results
of which the state department is wait
ing.
1t is said on behalf of the Spanish
that more than a year ago the atten-
ton of the Ward Line Steamship COM
pany was called to the fact that the
commanders OF some CT their vessels
running into Cuban ports failed TO fly
the United States colors. and thus made
it difficult for the Spanish navy to es-
tablish their identity. Since that time
there has been less complaint on that
score The Valencia, however, was new
to this particular line, and the Spanish
naval officers patrolling the coast did
not know her from her appearance In
such cases it is customary to call for
an exhibition CT the ships cclors, first
by firing a blank, and if this is disre-
garCied. by a solid shot across the bows.
This affair happened within the three
mile limit. in fact, almost inside the
harbor and the Spanish minister here.
on being advised of it. at once notified
the STATE DEPARTMENT that full in
curry would be made.

Special to The Herald.)

Especial to The Herald.)
Washington, June 3.-Ex-Senator
Brown and National Committeeman
Rogers have at last arrived in Wash
ington, and lis now certain that some
thing will drop" in the way of Utah
appointments before many more days.
They got here last evening, but this
fact was kept exceedinly quiet. for in
quiry at the Ebbitt house, where both
are staying, at late hour. failed to
reveal their presence there.
Mr.. Brown and Mr. Rogers will call
on the president tomrrow for the first
time. and will confer with him particu-
larly upon the appointment of district
attorney. There is no doubt that ROg
ers has the inside track for the place,
and will win in a walk-away. The ap-
pointment of marshal will follow, and
from what I can CLEAN Hoyt Sherman
is now a considerable distance in the
lead for that position.
The Herald correspondent called on
Mr.. Brown this evening. He seemed in
the very best of spirits and perfectly
willing to converse upon any subject
except that of the appointments which
he is here to urge. saying that he has
nothing to give out at present, but
