The Side of the State in the Durrant Case Ended. The case of the prosecution in the trial of Theodore Durrant, at San Franclsco, closed yesterday afternoon. The day was spent in putting the finishing touches to the testimony against the accused, Wit- nesses were summoned to strengthen the entire case by filling in the weak places. ‘The chief point which the prosecution ought to establish was that Durrant had jd that the last time he had seen Miss Lamont was when he parted from her on the morning of April 3, 5 going to school, he to the Cooper Medical College. In all his statements regarding the disappearance of Blanche Lamont the defendant stuck to the declaration. Detective Antony, who arrested Durrant, testified yesterday that Durrant had made the statement to him when returning to the city after the arrest. Drs Thomas A. Vogel, a member of the Emanuel Chureh, stated that Durrant nad to him, the Sunday after the disappearance, made the seme statement about the last time he had seen Blanche. The prosecu- tion expects to score a strong point by demonstrating to the jury that the pris- oner made false statements regarding his movements and the associations with the girl he is charged with having murdered. ‘The district attorney, it was sald, will use this as the basis of an argument that Dur- first statements were inspired by a sinister motive. If he had nothing to hide, it is argued, he would have told the truth about his last meeting with the girl. William Stirling, a gas fitter, explained the work he performed in putting new tips on the gas burners. He said that on April , when he left the church, no gas was es- Or April 4 he returned to the church and no escaping gas was noticed. Attorneys for the defense cross-examined this witness at length, the intention being to show that an immense escaped while the repairs were in proz the object being to justify the made by Durrant that he was overcome by fumes in the belfry. Barnum, demonstrator of anat- omy at Cooper Medical College, testifled that the blocks placed under the dead body of Blanche were laid in the same manner as under a subject in a dissecting room. Harry Patridge, a fello’ tudent of Dur- rant, swcre that ebout a week after Blanche disappeared Durrant told him the girl had either met with foul play or had Leen led astray. Prof. Charles Sherstein and Organist George H. King each denied writing h name on a slip of newspaper inclosing Miss Lamont’s rings, which were returned to Mrs. Noble unt of the dead girl. Allen Church, a former janitor of Eman- uel Church, said Durrant had a key which would unleck all rcoms in the interior of the church. ‘The prosecution then rested and the de- fense asked a continuance until today. Durrant’s attorneys will ask a few ques- tions of several witnesses who have already testified, and promise thereafter to proceed with the defense immediately. ‘The opening statement of the defense is awaited with interest. Owing to the re- fusal of the court to admit the evidence of the medical students of Cooper College rel- ative to Durrant’s attendance at the lec- ture on the afternoon of April 3, a number of Witnesses summoned to testify were not called. —_____+ e+ ___ Continue Examining Lands.

Hooper of the revenue cutter Rush has reported to the Secretary of “he Treasury the seizure of the British schoon- er Beatrice on August 20, within the pro- hibited zone as fixed by the Paris award. There were 140 seal skins on the Bea- trice, the taking of only sixty of which was recorded on her log. Other evidence was secured to justify the selzure, and the vessel was taken to Unalaska and turned over to the British ship Pheasant. While there are a large number of sealing vessels within the zone en coute home from Ja- pan, no irregularities were discovered on any of them. The seizure of the Beatrice is said to have been the only one made so far as Capt. Hooper knows since very early in the season. The sealers, Capt. Hooper says, seem to scent danger, ard are exceedingly careful. The sealing season, he thinks, will be over by September and all the vessels on their way .home. ——_—_--e The New Lee Rifle. Capt.
