The Murderer of Blanche Lamont and
Minnie Williams Gets Another Respite.
SAN Francisco, Nov. 12.-William
Henry Theodore Durant will not be
hanged at San Quentin today after all,
the supreme court Of this state having
granted him another respite at the
eleventh hour. Up to 4 o'clock yester-
day 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 TO carry
out the execution of Durant until fur
Their orders, there was apparently no
further hope for the condemned muir
derer of Blanche Lamont and Minnie
Williams, as his attorneys Messrs. Dick
inson and Boardman, had made futile
effort to secure another writ of habeas
corpus in the United States court, and
had not even been granted permission
to appeal from that decision to the SUI
preme court of the United States
Meanwhile, however, Attorney Du-
prey fastened to Sacramento and APP
piled to the state supreme court for q
writ of probable cause, for the purpose
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 mat
ter Of Durant's appealing from the de-
cision Of the federal court had yet been
received; that the superior court had
acted too hastily in sentencing Durant
to be hanged, as the law required that
he be given at least 60 days grace, and
thirdly, that the tendency Of an appeal
. l.r,a.
demned was Of itself sufficient cause
for q stay of execution. The matter
was partially argued in chambers and
later argued before the full court and
taken under advisement Shortly aft.
erward the court announced its deci.
sion, granting the writ applied for, in
which all the justices ooncurred.
