The long-drawn-out Durrant trial may tl.st be considered as nearing its close, 1at is if General Dickinson of the defense made his calculation aright. He stated yesterday that he thought this week and enother would see the end of the famous trial, with the fate of the accused in the bands of the jury. He expected the testimony in the direct case of the defense would all be in this week, and he did not anticipate that nore than a week further would be con- sumed in rebuttal and argument. Durrant is apparently confident of the result and looks forward to the return from the jury-room of the twelve good men and true with no outward show of anxiety. Harry E. 8nook, the Mission-street un- dertaker, will be the most important wit- ness whose testimony the Em:ccuuo}'} will introduce in its case of rebuttal, notwith- standing that he cannot swear positively that it was on April 3 he saw tbe accused on Bartlett street with Bianche Lamont. It will be by incidents that occurred on the same day that the prosecution will seek to establish the date as April 3. In this manner, therefore, this testimony will be made to be of much importance to the people’s case. ME. ngok:rememben very well, and the records show it, that a buginess meeting of the Epworth League of Chiristian Endeavor was held. At that meeting Harry Coyle, & member of the society, oifered a resolu- tion to drop the ‘‘of Christian Endeavor’ from the title of the society. Mr. 8nook was one of those who favored the resolu- | tion, but it was voted down. The follow- | ing day Coyle called at Snook’s place of business in the afternoon, and together they discussed their defeat of the night before. It was after Coyle had gone that Snook departed on his errand to the home of Miss Daisy Wilson, and it was while on | derstood. lege had at last been prevailed upon to tell ul% he knows concerning Durrant’s pres- ence or absence at the lecture; that he had stated that Student Barry occupied Durrant’s seat and that he knew the stu- dent in the rear of the room who answered for the accused. When District Attorney Barnes was seen last evening he said: “There is not a word of truth in the whole report. It isa fabrication from be- ginning to end.” Student Barry denies absolutely as well that be sat in Durrant’s seat during Dr. Cheney’s lecture, Tl L e Concordia Club Officers.

The Veteran Is Now Passing His Last Days on His Los An- geles Ranch. The New York Freeman’s Journal, in commenting on the recent reunion of Chattanooga veterans, takes occasion to pay tribute to the services of General W. S. Rosecrans. ‘‘Old Rosey,” as the soldiers knew him, has for several years been liv- ing with his son Carl, on a large ranch General W. S. Rosecrans. midway between Los Angelesand Redondo Beach. ‘rhere, almost any day, he can be seen stretched at full length on a shaded ver- anda, comfortably resting and passing his days in peace. e was not well enough to attend the reunion of the Army of the Cumberland. Commenting on his campaign the Free- man’s Journal saya: The campaign which ended in the occupa- tion of Chattanooga and which included the | great battle of Chickamauga was one of the most brilliant of the whole war, when the con- ditions nnder which it was carried out are un- General Rosecrans started {rom Murireesboro on the 24th of June, 1863, with the Army of the Cumberland, which had been romised support from Burnside’s army of the enuessee, General Bragg, the Coniederate commander, had - been re-eniforced by trobps from . Vuginia unaer that brilliant and ble officer, General Longstreet. Regard- less of the counsels of commanders, the clamor of the press and the prin- ciples of military science, Rosecrans, with the Army of the Cumberland, was sent 1o dislodge an enemy of ‘equal strength from a country well known to him, and well adapted on account of its mountain- ous character to defensive tactics. Governors Austin of Pennsylyvania, Andrew of Massachu- setts and Yates of Illinois offered to s Rose- crans seven regiments of two-year veterans, who were willing to re-enlist on condition that they should go as mounted infaniry to the Army of the Cumberland, but Secretary Stan- ton, who was implacably hostile to its com- mander, would not listen to the proposition. General Lovell H. Rousseau bore a letter to the Secreiary of War exrllining how very im- portant the service of such & body of men would be in guurdin§ the long line of commu- nications whica would have to be kept open in the advance upon Chattanooga. When the Secretary read General Rosecrans’ letter, he said to General Rousseau: ‘I would rather you would come to ask the command of the Army of the Cumberland than to ask re-en- forcements for General Rosecrans. He shall not have another &—d man.” So the Army of the Cumberland set outalone, and this, in brief, is what it accomplished un- der the general to whom Stanton refused to send “another -d——d man’: Dislodged the enemy irom two slrongl{( fortified camps; crossed the Cumberland Mountains, the Ten- nessee River, Band Mountains and Lookout Mountain; fought the battle of Chickamauga; and on the 22d day of September, 1863, just ninety-two dl‘.Ll from starting from Murirees- boro, 119 miles sway, held Chattanooga, the objective of the campaign. Then Rosecrans, in a campaign Of nipety-two days, secured and held “Chattanoogs, the gate through which Sherman and his army entered the Confederate wall when starting for the sea. At the most critical moment during the bat- tle of Chickamauga, General Rosecrans dashed into the hottest of the fire to rally the men of Davis’ command who had begun to waver be- fore the terrific assaults of superior numbers of the enemy. A young staff officer wWho ac- companied Roseerans begged him to retire to a safer place and not expose himself to almost certain death. To the expostulation of the young officer “Old Rosey"’ replied : “Never mind me, boy, but make the sign of the cross and go in!” As a battle-field remark it is entitled to be classed with Grant’s famous, “I’li fight it out on this line if it takes all summer.” ALBERTWAS DISAPPOINTED Adolph Bauer Promised Him Solos at Concerts That t errand that Snook believes that he tow Darrant and Miss Lamont on Bartlett street. . Harry Coyle has since died, but William Bomker, an employe of the Golden Gate Undertaking Company, will, it is said, say he remembers the call of the deceased and that the subject of conversation between himse!f and Snook was the defeat of his resolution the night before. Bnook does not now believe it was on the same day he received the money from Miss Wilson, which was the occasion of his visit to her. He says he called at her house two or three times when the door- bell was not answered, this circum- stance _being_accounted for by the fact that Miss Wilson was away and her mother, being slightly deaf, did not hear the ring. Miss Wilson’s landlady re- members one instance when she answered the bell and informed Bnook thaié Miss ‘Wilson was not at home. Snook is of the opinion that he made one of these visits April 3, because of the Coyle incident, and thinks it was on that occasion that he saw the young couple. * This is the story of the evidence Mr, Bnook will give when he is called to the stand. Inspeaking of the matter he said yesterday : 3 “Iam confident in my own mind that my memory serves me right in this matter, but there is a possibility that 1 am mis- taken, else I would testify positively to the day. A life in the balance is such a serious matter, that if Durrant is hanged I' don’t care to always feel the unpleasant reminder that I was the direct cause of his death, as I would be if I testified positively, in view of the possible doubt.” An untruthful report was published in an evening paper yesterday to-the effect that Student Dorr of Cooper Medical Col- Do Not Exist. An Unfortunate Musiclan Who Swore to Shed the Con- ductor’s Gore. ‘When Herr Hans Albert, an accom= plished German violinist, rose vesterday morning it was in the firm belief that the day bad come for him to make his San Krancisco debut on the concert platform, yet such is the uncertainty of life that at the very Lour he should have been draw- ing dulcet tones from his Stradivarias, Herr Albert was lying on a cot at the Re- ceiving Hospital with ice at his head and hatred in his heart, vowing in his mo- ments of consciousness that he intended to cut short the days of Adolph Bauer, direc- tor of the Tivoli orchestra. A good many local musicians pity Herr Albert’s plight, for they say he has been made a tool of by the wily Bauer. When seen last night at the Receiving Hospital the violinist stated that such was indeed the case. “I bave found out that Bauer had a grudge against Minetti and Carl Muller, the two first violins at the Tivoli,” he said. “He owed them money for the Symphony concerts he gave when he was here before, and they were instrumental in having him ut on the black list of the Musicians’ nion. When that difficulty was settled e determined to discharge ‘them, and to I Minetti’s place he sent for me to befirst violin, but efter he had brought me to San Francisco he found that the Tivoli man- agement would not let him discharge the musicians. for his own caprice. Mrs. Kreling let me play second violin, but Bauer discharged me from that—ach !—and 1 was to have played at the Carr-Bee! con- cert to-day.” The letter which induced Albert to come | to this City was written to a mutual friend, Mrs. Solerino, and runs: *‘Tell Albert that 1 can offer Lim the conductorship of my orchestra. I also want him to play solos at my concerts, which I give at the Bald- win under Bouvier’s management.’’ ‘When Albert arrived, however, he found that Bauer’s Baldwin concerts werea myth and that “my orchestra” was in realit Mrs. Kreling’s. That lady knew that A{ bert bad come with the highest recom- mendations as a solo violinist from the secretary of the Omaha Union, and while she did not want to displace good musi- ciang to make him conductor she offered him tne position of second violin at the Tivoli, which the poor little musician was glad to take as a temporary expedient. As he is known to be an excellent quartet- ist he was at once taken into the Sigmund Beel String Quartet. The bitter pill of being second violin where he had expected to be concert- master and soloist preved on Albert's mind, however. 1t is said that he had not Erevio\\sly heen given to intemperance, ut a few days ago he began to seek relief in the flowiné; bow]. On Thursday night he improvised some_exqnuisite cadenzas in the middle of one of Miss Nielsen's solos; he also displayed so much solo virtuosity while West was singing that the attention of the audience was entirely monopolized by the violinist. That mght he was discharged and an hour afterward one of the management rescued him from the clutches of a big policeman, as he was vowing to shed Bauer’s gore, and he was taken home. Yesterday the audience at the Carr-Beel | “pop”’ was informed that the new second violin could not appear,which he certainly could not, seeing he was helpless at the Receiving Hospital. There 1s a good deal of sympathy for Al bert, particularly as the young lady who was to have married him is understood to have left Omaha to join him here. The Tivoli management, who have all along treated the unfortunate young man kindly, have telegraphed to her the condition of things. SCIENCE IN RELAXATION, Members of the Technical Society of the Pacific Compare Notes Over the Dinner Table. In place of their regular monthiy meet- ing the membersof the Technical Society of the Pacific sat down to an informal dinner last night at the Maison Riche. Among the invited guests were Professor Davidson and Professor Kellogg of Berke- ley. President Jordan of Stanford Uni- yersity was prevented by a prior engage- ment from attending. About fifty mem- bers and invited guests took their places at the board. President George W. Dickie made the opening remarks. He called attention to the lack of recognition that society gives to the value of technical work. While the intellectual act of computing the orbit of a planet is of the same order as that of computinyg the orbit of a centrifugal pump, the astronomer’s work is looked upon as of asuperior worth to that of the mechan- ical engineer. But how would the astronomer feel if he had the planet left on his hands by reason of his miscalculation? For some reason ap- plied science is regarded as of lower de- gree than pure science. The solution of practical problems in physics brings less honor than the solution of the problems in the higher mathematics. This seems to be the status. What is the cause of iL? President Kellogg responded in a hafi)y vein. He did not entirely agree with Mr. Dickie that the efforts of the engineer were not appreciated. For his part he felt the reatest admiration for his achievements. fiut he thought, perhaps, if the case was as stated, that a part of the cause might be in the carelessnessof engineers themselves | in presenting their claims for recognition. The scientific education should be supple- mented by a classical training that would enable the engineer to expound his gews | in pleasing ways. Professor Davidson declared that he knew only two or three men who were followers of purescience. Simon Newcomb iaid his claim to the great respect of his fellows on the fact that he edited and published a nautical almanac—technical work. Science is nothing more than common-sense made definite, exact and comprehensive. Professor Marks of Stanford University bhad noted the indifference to the real value of technical work mentionea by Mr. Dickie, and said that it must be due to one or both of two causes: something in the engineer himself or 1nability to appreciate technical effort in the public. In England, Germany and France it seemed to be dif- ferent. But in England, Germany and France the average education of the masses is perhaps higher than in Amerlca. Vice-President W. G. Curtis followed with an exposition of the Pacific Coast as a field for the engineer, pausing todpresent some data as to the relative productive- ness of California, which, with only 2 per cent of the population of the United States, yields products enormously out of propor- tion to the population. While nature has left us deficient in fuel the thousands of waterfalls on our mountain sides can, by the aid of the electrical engineer, supply an abundance of power. John Rich related some experiences of his thirty years of engineeriug, and pre- d_ict;d a great future for engineering of all kinds, Mr. Percy, representing the architectural contingent, also spoke in praise of the en- gineer’s work. The last hundred years has seen greater advances in engineering work of all'’kinds than any thousand years prior to it. Other speakers touched upon the various points suggested, and the meeting ad- sourned with a vote of thanks to the com- mittee of arrangements. ————— THE BICYCLE ¥FOR BIGNAL SERVICE.~The immense importance of the rapid trans- mission of orders and messages in mili- tary maneuvers has led to the adoption of many devices for increasing the utility of field telephone and telegraph circuits. For running a line across country, the out- post_cablecart has been found of great service. Itis made of steel, mounted on two wheels, and can be run either by hand or ‘by horse. It will carry four miles of double cable, each mile being wound on a spool, and paid out in succession. A fleld kit is attached by a flexible wire to the cart, and communication is always possi- ble, whether the cart is in motion or at rest. The drawback to this arrangement, however, is that it requires two men, one to push the cart, and another to control the winding and unwinding of the wire. This difficulty is ahout to be overcome by the equipment of the service with bicycles for carrying the reel. The rider by his propulsion of the wheel distributes the wire in the track of the machine. Reeling in, which has generally been a source of delay, is fully provided for, and an ingenious mechanism enables the rider to rapidly gather up the wire from the ground, and it is reeled on a spool borne in front of the handie bar. In iront of the saddlea case of instruments and tools will be carried, inaddition to the ordinary leather pocket in which bicycling implements are carried. Restingon asup- port over the rear wheel of the machine, and directly behind the saddle, is the case which contains the telegraphic and tele- phonic instruments. This can be removed and a communicating station instantly es- tablished anywhere along the line. "The bicycle will save a great deal of travel which has hitherto been necessary in con- sequence of cumbersomeness of the cable cart. The wheel is so light, even with the reel of wire and the instrument cases, that it can be readily lifted over obstructions, such as stone -walls, hedges and fallen trees. By itsuse the operators can work with a epeed not: before sible, both in lnging and reeling up the.lines of wire. The reel will carry either insulated or naked wire. LEVTEINT CUSHIG D THE B ALBEALE vy HAVE K3 A STORY OF RESOLUTE DARING THAT ComES FROM THE RECORDS OF THE LATE CIVIL WAR. During the late Civil War the Confed- erates showed the same skill and energy in building their great ironclad rams as the men of the Union did in building the monitors which were o often pitted against them. Both sides, but especially the Confederates, also used stationary tor- pedoes, and on a number of occasions tor- pedo-boats likewise. These torpedp-boats were sometimes built to go under the water. One such, after repeated failures, was employed by the Confederates, with equal gallantry and success, in sinking a TUnion sloop-of-war off Charleston harbor. The torpedo-boat itself went to the bottom with its victims, all on board being drowned. The other type of torpedo-boat was simply a swift, ordinary steam-launch operated on the surface. 1t was this last type of boat which Lieu- tenant W. B. Cushing brought down to Albemarle Sound to use against the great Confederate ram Albemarle. The ram had been built for the purpose of destroying the Union blockading forces. Steaming down the river, she had twice attacked the Federal gunboats, and In each casze had sunk or disabled one or more of them, with little injury to herself. She had re- tired up the river again to lie at her wharf and refit. The gunboats had suffered so severely as Commander W. B, Cushing. [From St. Nicholas.] to make it a certainty that when the ram came out again, thoroughly fitted up, to renew the attack, the wooden vessels would be destroyed: and while she was in exist- ence the Union vessels: could not attack and reduce tbe forts and coast towns. Just at this time Cushing came down from the North with his swift little torpedo-boat— an open launch with a spar rigged to push out in front, the torpedo being placed at the end. The crew of the launch consisted of fifteen men, Cushing being in command. He not only guided his craft, but himself handled the torpedo by means of two small ropes, one of which put it in place while the other exploded it. The action of the torpedo was complicated, and it could not have been operated inatime of tremen- dous excitement save by a mun of the utmost nerve and self-command. But Cushing had both; he possessed precisely that combination of reckless courage, pres- ence of mind and high mental capacity necessary to the man who leads a forlorn hope under . peculiarly difficult circum- stances. On the night of October 27, 1864, Cush- ing slipped away from the blockading fleet and steamed up the river toward the wharf, a dozen miles distant, where thes} great ram lay. The Coniederates were watchful to guard against surprise, for they feared lest their foes should try to de- stroy the ram before she got a chance to come down and attack them again in the sound. She lay under the guns of a fort, with a regiment of troops at a moment’s notice to turn out and detend her. Her own guns were kept always clear for ac- tion, and she was protected by a great boom of logs thrown_ out roundabout, of which last defense the Federals knew noth- ing. Cushing went up stream with the utmost caution, and by good luck passed, un- noticed, a Confederate lookout below the ram, About midnjght he made his assault. Stenming quietly on through the black water and feeling his way cautiously to- ward where he knew the town to be he finally made out the loom of the Albe- marle through the night, and at once drove at her. He was aimost upon her be- fore he was discovered; then the crew and the soldiers on the wharf opened fire, and at the same moment he was brought to by the boom, the existence of which he had not known. The rifle-balls were singing about him as he stood erect guiding his launch, and he heard the bustle of men aboard the ram and the noise of the gre: guns as they were fo: ready. Backing o lLe again went all steam ahead, and gctua y surged over the slippery log of the 0om. Meanwhite, on the deck of the Albe- marle the sailors were running to quar- ters and the soldiers were swarming down to aid in her defense. And the droning bullets came always thicker through the dark night. Cusninfi still stood uprightin his little craft, guiding and_controlling her by voice and signal, while in his hands he kept the ropes which led to the torpedo. As the boat slia forward over the boom he brought the torpedo full against the som- ber side of the huge ram and instantly ex- ploded it, almost at the same time that the pivot-gun of the ram, loaded with grape, was fired point blank at him, not ten yards off. At once the ram seftled, the launch sinking at the same moment, while Cush- ingand his men swam for their lives. Most of them sank or were captured, but Cushing reached midstream. Hearing something splashing in the darkness, he swam toward it and found that it was one of his crew. He went to his rescue and they kept together for some time, but the sailor’s strength gave out and he finally sank. In the pitch darkness Cushin; could form no idea where he was, an when chilled through and too exhausted to rise to his feet he finally reached shore shortly before dawn; he found that he had swam back and landed but a few hun- dred feet below the sunken ram. All that day he remained within easy musket- shot of where his foes were swarming about the port and the great drowned iron- clad. He hardly dared to move, and until the afternoon he lay without food and without protection from tne heat or in- sects. Then he managed to slip unob- served into a dense swamp and began to make his way toward the fleet. Toward evening ke came out on a small stream near a camp of Confederate soldiers. They bad moored to the bank a small skiff, and’ with equal steaith and daring he managed to steal this and began to paddle downstream. Hour after hour he paddled on through the fading light and then through the darkness. At last, utterly worn out, he found the squadron and was picked up. At once the ships weighed their anchors, and they speedily captured every coast town and fort, now that their dreaded en- u_niy ‘was no longer in the way. he fame of Cushing’s deed went all over the land, and his name will stand for- ever among- the highest on the honor roll of the American navy.—Theodore Roose- velt, in St. Nigholas for October.

In places where no provision has been made for thisimposition on the patience and interests of streetcar passen- gers, a line of cars half a mile or more long may be kept awaiting the pleasure of a lazy coal-heaver, who is manifestly mak- ing the most of his opportunity to cause inconvenience and annoyance to the pub- lic. Such a measure as that now proposed in_Philadelphia would speedily suppress this outrage. The Philadelphia” Council is considering an ordinance to prevent the obstruction of streetcar lines by coal carts and trucks, and it is understoog that the new law will include a provision that where coal is emptied on the street prepa- ratory to its being taken into a house a clear pathway shall be lelt on the side- walk for pedestrians. While the un- loading of coal for house wuse is recognized as a necessity, there is no rea- son why the owners of carts in performing this labor should be permitted longer to bring the passenger and other traffic of the streets to a standstill, and it is equally unreasonable that gedee:rinns should be compelled to scramble over a pile of coal on the sidewalk, or to take the alternative of being forced into the car- riage way of the street.
