Ourrant's Counsel Fails to Secure Re-
prieve for Him,

Washington, Jan Counsel for Dur
rant, the condemned California murder
err, today made an unsuccessful effort to
have Justice Brewer of the supreme
court interfere and stay proceedings.
Attorney Boardnan arrived here from
California, today, and made two appli-
cations for interference. Justice Brewer
went over the case in detail with him,
and first considered an application made
by Mr. Boarlman, to sign citation
upon the appeal which was sought to
be taken from the Judgment of the fed
eral circuit court of California, denying
the issuance of a writ Of habeas corpus,
the object being to perfect the appeal
This application was refused, and then
Mr. Boardman presented an application
for a writ of error from the Judgment
of the supreme court of California upon
the appeal from the last order of Judge
Bahrs, fixing the date of Durrant's .ex-
ecutioif, the object being to secure q
writ Of supersedeas, which would act as
g. stay of proceedings.
In denying the application upon this
11abeas corpus proceedings, Justice
Brewer said that, under the construc-
ton by the court OF the construction
the federal courts had no power Of lirni-
tation upon the right of appeal in ha-
beas corpus proceedings, the opinion be-
ing that such appeals should not be al
lowed where the appeal operates to
suspend the power Of the state authori-
ties, and especially where the case has
already been heard upon one appeal in
a habeaS corpus proceedings.
With reference to the writ of error,
he considered especially the representa-
ton Of Mr.. Boardman upon the claim
that as the constitution of California
grants an appeal, such an appeal be-
comes a vested right. The justice con-
sidered this point carefully, but, as he
could not accept the courts Judgment
on this point as it's final action, he could
not therefore see his way clear to in
terfere, on this account. Mr.. Boardman
pointed out that the probable execution
of Durrant tomorrow would have the
practical effect of making the Judgment
final, so far as it should bear upon his
fortunes, but the justice held to his or
iginal determination in the matter
In presenting the matter. Mr.. Board
man was armed with a long list of doc
uments which he used, especially in his
effort to secure the review Of the court S
action in the habeaS corpus proceed
ings. They related to alleged errors in
denying the prisoner his rights under
the constitution. The interview lasted
40 minutes. After its conclusion, Mr..
Boardman stated that he was undecid-
ed as to- whether to make an appIica-
ton TO the full supreme court tomorrow
for writ of prohibition, staying the ex-
ecution AS the court does not convene
until noon, and the execution is set for
1890, he was fearful that the difference
in time would not be sufficient to save
Durrant, even If ne should be success
ful in having his motion granted.
San. Francisco, Jan. 6.--Gov. Budd has
announced that he will not interfere
with the execution of Durrant.
