v;ctims-Cr;me and Catastrophe.
San Francisco. May 1.-THE friends Of
Jeannine Young c"Baroness Won Turk
helm" in this city have not yet done
anything toward raising sufficient funds
for her return 70 San Francisco. as she
requested in her cablegram TO the chief
OF police. Attorney Hutton and one or
two other people who are sufficiently in
terested in her affairs 10 assist her IL the
necessity should arise. are afraid that the
cablegran to Chief Lees was sent by Won
Arnold as decoy in the hope OF obtain
ing money with which to continue his
travels. Mr.. Hutton. therefore, viii
await confirmation Of the news of the
bogus baron's desertion before he does
anything in the matter.
Chief Lees cabied the "barpness" last
night to communicate with Mr.. Hutton.
On account Of the reference In the cable
gram TO the important papers in the Fair
viii case that are said 10 be in Won Turk
helms possession, the chief held a con-
sultation with George A. Knight, atsor-
ney for Charles L. Fair. with the object
Of ascertaining whether the woman
might have any discriminating docu-
msnts.
Mr.. knight stated that. in his opinion.
she had nothing that would be OF i'm
portance in the Craven case, or that
could be introduced in evidence. His
side Of the case wanted nothing with the
woman. Charley Fair would not put up
a cent to fetch her back, nor did ne care
whether she ever comes back or not. He
knows where all the important docu-
ments in the Craven case are and for
that reason il is not at all probable that
she had any papers that could be used in
the litigation.
DURRANT HAS HOPE.
San Francisco, May 11.-Attorneys Eu-
gene Deuprey and George A. Knight
have begun the preparation Of their plea
for executive clemency on behalf OF
Theodore Durrant, which will be pre-
scented TO Governor Budd next Friday.
The procedure before the governor will
be strictly in accordance with the law.
There will be no emotional or sensation
al appeals. The attorneys say they will
be content to depend upon facts and the
force of argument TO save their client.
It is not the intention Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Durrart TO accompany the attorneys 70
as ii is understood that the
governor would not see them should they
present themselves. Durrant is san
guine that the governor will act favora-
bly, on his application.
