A Summary of the Fatal Thirteen Links That Convicted the Condemned Man. Governor Budd visited Chief Lees yes- terday morning to inquire further con- ng the evidenco agamst Theodore He and the Chief were closeted ome time in a consultation, and the ernor was particularly anxious to ex- ne the handwritiug that appeared on anche Lamont’s vere re- Noble.

Hoffman Martin was one of the callers upon Governor Buld in Chief of Police Lees’ office, and made an appeal for a reprieve for Theodore Dur- rant. She asked the Governor not to be influenced by vopular prejudice, and re- quested him to examine the testimony for himself. The Gov nor received from her a state- ment containing about 7000 words, written in her own band. He assured her that he would carefully examine the record and ner appeal and that he would not pay any attention to anything outside of the evi- dence in the case. Mrs. Martin told a CALL Teporter after- ward that when Captain Lees learned of the nature of her mission he became very angry and said that she haa no right to have an opinion or to interfere in the NEW TO-DAY!

She disagreed with him and when she left the office the entente cordiale lrad vanished. After Mrs. Martin left Chief Lees she had an interview with Attorney Deuprey and toid him that the Chief had accused the attorneys for the defense of garbling the evidence in the case and making a one-sided statement. Mrs. Marun then became suspicious that Captain Lees’ documents were not quite official. Captain Lees referred to alleged misquotations of the evidence said to have made by Den- prey. These charges were made by the Attorney-General in his brief before the Supreme Court. During the argument of Attorney Deu- prey before the Governor Friday he de- voted much atteution to the testimony of Mrs. Vegel, and commented severely apon the fact that she could not remember that there was a telegraph pole in front of her house. The Governor interrupted by asking Deuprey bow long he had lived in_his present house, and Deuprey replied, *“Five years.” Then the Governor asked him how many steps there were leading up to his house. Deuprey replied that there were two flights of steps—ten on the first flight and eleven on the second. In anticipation of the Governor's visit Chief Lees sent Detective Gibson yester- | day morning to Deuprey’s house 10 count the steps, and Gibson reported that there were_three landings, with four steps on the first. six on the second and fourteen on the third. The Governor asked Chief Lees if he would send a man to count the steps, and the Chief handed him Gibson’s report. After reading it the Governor smiled and said: I knew Deuprey was making a biuff, for it is not in the nature of the hu- man mind to remember such details. I have lived in my present house in Stock- ton for twenty-five years, and during all that time I have not had occasion to in- quite the name of a certain street a block away from the house, and if asked now for the name of the street I could not | tell. Coming down on the train last night I told Deunrey that he had made a good bluff, but was in the position of a man who had been called.” he Governor received from the Chief a written account of the life of the convict, Rosenberg, from the arrival of the ship Hospodar on November 5, 1895, tiil his ar- rest and conviction in San Jose for horso- stealing. Chief Lees did not care toexpressan opinion regarding the outcome of his con- ference with the Governor, preferring to allow the Governor to speak for himself. The State’s legal representatives rely absolutely upon the recoras of the court as making a case that cannot be shattered. They hold that the chain of circumstan- tial evidence against Durrant is complete and that they bave traced him from the time he met Bianche Lamont in front of the Normal School on Powell street until he came, pale and disheveled, from the belfry where his victim lay. In this chain of evidence strangely there are thirteen cardinal links, all of which, it isclaimed, are corroborated by several wit- nesses and each of which is properly fitted |to all the others. These points are set forth in the Attorney-General’s brief sub- stantialiy in the following order: First—Mrs. Mary Vogel of 919 Powell street saw Durrant opposite the Normal School about 2 o’clock on April 3. He waited nervously for about forty minutes, then joined two girls and took the Marketbound Powell-street car with them. She thought he acted strangely and, having heard of robberies, viewed him with her opera-glasses. Second—Miss Minnie Bell Edwards, a Normal School student, swore that she and Blanche Lamont were joined by de- fendant at the time and place sworn to by Mrs. Vogel. Her evidence is corrobo- rated by that of two other students, Alice Pleasant and Mary Lanigan, who saw Darrant and Miss Lamont sitting together on the dummy of a Powell-sireet car. Third—Mrs. Elizabeth D. Crossett posi- tively swore that she saw defendant and a tall young lady on a Valencia-street car the afternoon of the girl’s disappearance, between 3:30 and 4 o’clock. They left the car at Twenuy-first street. Witness knew Durrant well. Fourth—Attorney Martin Quinlan, who | knew Durrant well, swore that he saw | him going toward the church of the trag- edy with a tall girl between 4:10 and on the afternoon of April 3. Fifth—Mrs. Caroline Lezke saw Durrant | and a tali rirl enter the church between |4and 4:30 ¢ . She knew Durrant well, ard noticed the couple closely, because she was expecting her daughter to return | home. Sbe saw them from an upper win- | dow of 124 Bartlett street. Sixth—Organist George King swore that bhe arrived at the church about5 P. M. on April After he had played a few min- utes Durrant appeared from the belfry, waoere the girl’s body was afterward founa. He wae pale, “had his coat and hat off and bis hair was disheveled.”” He said he had been fixing the gas-burner and had been overcome with gas. Seventh—Janitor Frank Sademan swore that the gasburners were in good order. Eighth—Mrs. Durrant swore that her son did not look being well and did not eat very heartily. Ninth—Pawnbroker Adolph Oppenheim of 405 Dupont street swore that Durrant tried to pawn a ring with him. It was a peculiar one, and was afterward identified as Blanche Lamont’s. He tried to pawn | it between April 4 and 10. Tenth—Cigar-maker Phillips of San Rafael swore that he saw a man answer- ing Durrant’s description standing in front of Oppenheim’s place at the time in question. Eleventh—On April 13 Mrs. Noble re- ceived the dead girl’s rings, wrapped in a newspaper and addressed in a hand that the jury decided was that of Durrant. Twelith—Blanche Lamont’s body was placed on blocks in the manner in vogue at Cooper’s Medical College, which Dur- rant attended. The blocks were the same as those used there. Thirteenth—There were seven nail- prints on Blanche Lamont’s neck, show- ing that she had been choked to death. The position of the prints sbowed her strangler to be a left-handed man. Dur- rant is left handed. JOYFUL ADOPTION PARTY. Judge Coffey Entertained Some Happy Visitors ¥rom Tracy. Judge Coffey’s court proceedin gs had a touch of romance yesterday by the intro- duction of some interesting visitors from Tracy, San Joaquin County. Mrs. Mary Lizsette Guy appearea for the purpose of giving her consent to the adoption of her infant child, Henrik An- drew, by Andrew Winter and his wife, Kate. An odd affidavit was filed by John R. Guy, the presumptive father of the child, a bright little fellow who made himself at home in the courtroom and manifested the fact that he did not stand in awe of the court or the bailiff. Mr. Guy ad- mitted that he was married to Mary L. Guy on the 15th of August, 1894, and that on January 3, 1895, a male chiid was born unto her; that said child is the one for which letters of adoption have been ap- piied by Mr. and Mrs. Winter; that the affiant has been requested to give his con- sent 10 the proposed adoption and that he hereby expresses a willingness fo have the adoption grauted, but that he dis- ciaims parentage of the child, and for that reason refuses to travel from bis present residence at Tracy to the city of San Francisco to sign any papers as the father of said child. Mr. and Mre. Winter testified that they bave no children of their own and prom- ised to care for the litile oue as 1f he had been born to them. Judge Coffey signed the necessary documents, and the happy party left the courtroom beaming with smiles. | | — ———— Sued on a Promissory Note. 3. Nielsen, as the assignee of J. T.

Olympic Club Obj:cts to the Mandates of Eastern Amateurs. A Meeting Called to Organize a California Athletic Asso- ciation. Amateur athletic affairs are now ina very much mudaled state. Some weeks ago, as this paper stated at the time, the Olympic Club grew very much disgusted at the treatment it re- ceived from the Pacific Athletic Associa- tion of the Amateur Union, and at a meeting held in the club the directors concluded to “break away’’ from the a: sociation and call a meeting of all the amateur clubs on the coast for the pur- pose of organizing a California Amateur Association, which will be sirictly ama- teur in every sense. The board of governors of the P. A. A. accepted the resignation of the Olym- pic Club, and shortly afterward other clubs followed in the footsteps of the Olympic and sent in their resignations. On Friday evening the Pacific Athletic Association held its annual meeting at the Reliance Club in Oakland, and several of the members represented took tne Olympic Club to task. Some of them stated that the association would be puri- fied by the absence of the Oiympic Club and some of the other clubs which, al- though pretending to be amateur, were doing all in their power to foster profes- sional contests. The officers of the Olympic Club do not, however, appear to be much exercised over the statements made by some of the leading members of the Pacific Athletic Association. In fact, the president of the Olympic smiled when he read the report of Friday evening’s meeting. He said: “Well, you know the board is composed principally of boys, some of whom are undoubtedly very zealous and assuredly enthusiastic, but they have got much to learn. I willallow that they mean right, but the question that is of greatestim- portance is: Can the amateur athletes of California govern themselves without the ‘assistance’ of the Amateur Athletic Union? “Now you see, we Californians are a very long distance from headquarters, so to speak, and 1if there shounid be any ques- tion of importance arise that cannot be aecided by the representatives of the union on this coast, why we must wait two weeks at least for an answer from New York, ana on more than one occasion answers to questions have been delayed to suit the convenience of the secretary of the union. “But that is not our only grievance ; we have many. Our boys object to the small inducements that are offered for compe- titions in boxing, wrestling and in factall- round athletic sports. I cannot see why the union should restrict amateurs to a $35 trophy. Now if a $100 trophy is given, which is small inducement enough to a boxer or wrestler who trains hard se veral weeks for a contes:, I have nodoubt that a large entry would resuit. “Qur athletlic talent is made up of young men who were not born with silver spoons in their mouths, and consequently we must give them some better induce- ments than are given to the young men of the clubs of New York, who are, in great- est part, the sons of wealthy men. *I contend that a man can be an ama- teur, it matters nov whether he contests for a $100 trophy or a $5 trophy. “‘We can govern ourselvesat home with- out baving to d to New York for in- structions, and it is with that objectin view the Olympic Club has called a meet- ing of the respective clubs of this coast for Friday evening. the 28th inst. “I think that California has material with ability and intelligence among its athletic institutions to handle its own af- fairs to the satistaction of all concerned in amateur athletic sports. The money we send East annually to the secretary of the union can be used to much better ad- vantage at home. With few exceptions the amateur athletes of this coastfavor our scheme.”” SELECTED THIS CITY. A. J. Giddings, tern Agent of the Nickel- Plate Line, Has Established His Headquarters Here. Arthur J. Giddings, who has been ap- pointed Western agent of the Nickel- Piate Fast Freight Line, has decided to establish his headquarlers in this City. He has charge of all the territory west of the Missouri River, including the Pacific Coast, and he had the choice of locating in Denver, Los Angeles, Portland or this City. Prior to his appointment as Western agent of the line he occupied the position of chief clerk in the general office at Buf- falo, N. Y., from the time the line began doing business in 1884. The Buffalo Courier, 8 long article on his promotion, says: _*It is no flattery to say that no man occupying a like position is held in hicher esteem nor regarded as a more reliable expert than Mr. Giddings. He has a thorough familiarity with every feature -and branch of the service, is widely known and has a capacity for de- tail relating to traffic matters that has gained for him the enviable reputation of without a superior. Those with whom he has been associated so long will regret to part with bim, for he is one of the most companionabie of men, but they will also be gratitied that his long and faith{ul ser- vice has received substantial and well- merited reward.” Physically, Mr. Giddings is a splendid specimen of American manhood, tall and broad-shouldered, and, like most big men, is genial and piea<ant 1n his manners. He and Police Sery.ant Cassius P. Wright were boy s together, and had not seen each other for sixteen yéars till a few days ago. ————— For Ipfringement of Patent. James C. Brown yesterday brought suit in the United States Circult Court against the San Leandro and Haywards Electric Company to recover $100,000 and costs for damages for infringement of patent.

THE CADET CORPS, Exhibition Drill by the Young National Guardamen of the Lowell High School—A Good Showing. The eleventh annual exhibition drill by the High School Cadeis of the Loweil High School was given in the First Regi- ment armory, 25 Page street, last night, in the presence of a large number of the friends and relatives of the young Na- tional guardsmen. The company, numbering fifty-two, not including the officers, was drilled by Gap- tain Edwards, the commander, first by fours and then by platoons. Their move- wments were almost faultless and the marching was such as to call forth many words of praise from muilitary ofiicers who were present. These movements were followed by the bayonet exercise by a selected squad. The commands were given rapidly and were executed, with one exception, with a pre- cision that would have been creditable to a like numbgr of men who had had more experience in the manual of arms than have the cadet corps. Then came guard mount, in which all the movements were very creditably exe- cuted. One thing was notable, and that was that the rifles with which the cadets drill were those used by the members of the adult companies, and they were too heavy for many of those who carried them, and as cne of the boys said after the drill, ‘“Those guns seem to weigh a ton after you have toyed with them for an hour.’’ After the drill a string band furnished music for dancing, which was kept up until a late hour. REMEMBERED THEIR DEAD. The Native Daughters of the Golden West Decorate the Graves of Departed Sisters. The beautiful practice of decorating once a year with flowers the graves of the devarted, which had its origin in France, and was then taken up by the Southern women during the war and subsequently by the Grand Army of the Republic, has been taken up by the Native Daughters of the Golden West. The 15th day of May of each year has been set apart when parlors throughout the State shall visit the resting places of those who have been called away from earth and place upon each evidences of fraternal remembrance in the shape of flowers. This was done yesterday by the mem- bers of the local parlors, and in the evening each parlor assembled in its re- spective headquarters and there held special service, In each there was read from the ritual, and in others in addition there was singing of music appropriate to the occasion. Such seryice was held by Alta, Buena Vista, La Estrella, Golden State, Orinda, Oro Fino and Yosemite parlors. In the first named parlor ‘Nearer, My God, to Thee”” was sung by Lillie Wilson, “Abide With Me” was rendered by Miss Evans, and “The Golden City” was sung by Mrs. Kemp Van Ee. Sl SR DEATH WAS HIS HEALER. Marinus B. Gudde, Fuiling to Keep His Health, Commits Suicide, Marinus B. Gudde, a chicken rancher, | 70 years of age, committed suicide in his home, Eleventh avenue and I street, yes- teraay by drinking a solution of mor- phine. Guade’s suicide was prompted by failing health, and for several months he had been anxious to end his life. He tried to hang himself a short time ago, but was vrevented. Undaunted, however, he waited a more favorable opportunity, which presented itself yesterday morning, and he took immediute advantage of it. Early in the morning the suicide drove to the business poruon of the City to pur- chase a load of chicken feed. On his way home he had a prescription, largely com- posed oi morphine, filled, under the pre- tense that he intended using the solution for a chicken remedy. ‘Wheh he reached home he went to his woodshed and as he remained longer than usual bis widow went to call him. As she reached the door he raised the phial con- taining the solution to his lips and drank balf its contents. Mrs. Gudde, knowing her husband bad swallowed poison, as he had often threatened to do, summoned Dr. McLauchlan. The pbysician worked on his patient for several hours, but with- out avail, and at 4 o’clock in the aiterno death took place, The Coroner was noti- fied and the body was removed to the Morgue. e e League of the Cross Cadets. At 2 o'clock this afternoon, the League of the Cross of Mission Dolores parish will have a rally at Mission Parlor Hall, Seventeenth street, near Valencia, The arrangemenis are in charge of the members of Comoany 1, League of the Cross Cadeis, who have prepared &n excellent programme of musical numboers and readings.

Preston, Found:r of the School, Says This Is the First Introduc- NEW NEW TO-DAY —DRY GOODS. WASH FABRICS! tion of Politics in the Scho:l. The board of trustees of the Preston School of Industry, at Ione, held three sessions yesterday at the Grand Hotel in this City. In afternoon secret session they removed E. Carl Bank, a faithful su- perintendent, for purely political reasons. Mr. Bank has been superintendent of the echool since it was opened, in 1893, In his place was appointed E. 8. 0'Brien of Merced. Mr. O'Brien is a Democrat and wanted the place. The trustees also removed Assistant Su- perintendent Wood, and appointed in his vlace ex-Chief of Police Timothy Lees of Bacramento, a Democrat in need of an office. The removals were accomplished by the votes of Trustees L.J. Maddox of Mo- desto and Dr. F. D. Tyrrell of Sscra- mento. The latter was recently appointed on the board to take the place of Fayette .Mace of Ione. His appointment made the board Democratic. Ex-S8enator E. M. Preston, the founder of the institution, voted against the displacement of the capable and experienced officers, but the majority was against him. At the Grand Hotel last evening Mr. Preston sai “This is the first time that politics has entered into the man- agement of the school. A few daysagoa canvass was made of the employes at the school, and it was found that as many Democrats as Repubiicans were employed. Yes, I supposs that other removals or resignations will follow. Iregard it as unfortunate for the school and for the State. Ido not know that the newly ap- pointed superintendent has had any ex- perience in the management of reforma- tory institutions. I think that question was not considered.”” When asked if any charges of incapa- city or misconduct had been preferred against E. Carl Bank, the removed super- intendent, Mr. Preston replied: ‘No charges were preferred against him. There was no discussion as to the merits of his successor. The vote was simply | taken on the proposition to remove Mr. Bauk and appoint Mr. O’Brien From other sources it tra an active fight against Superintendent Bank was make by the secretary of the board, M. R. Barnard. The slate prepared vesterday morning i:vu the superintendency 1o ex-Chief es of Sacramento, and the place of as- sistant to ex-Sheriff O'Neil of the same city. Later in the day a change in the programme was made, and O'Brien was slated for the first place. Governor Budd was in town during the sessions of the board, but did not exercise his right to attend the meeting, The morning session of tne trustees was devoted to an inspection of plans submit- ted by architects for the annex and two cottages. Nine competitors ap] ed with architectural plane, as follows: Cuthber:- | son & Banks, Francisco; Percy & | Hamilton, San Francisco: Cunningham | Brothers, Oakland; W. W. Oates, Stock- | ton, and Havens & Toepke, John M. Cur- tis and William Corlett of San Francisco, and Kilpatrick & Goddara of Los Angeles. At the evening session of the board plans were discussed. After acceptance of plans by the trustees, the Governor and Secretary of State and Treasurer must give their approval. NEW HEADQUARTERS. | Major-General James and Staff Located at the Baldwin Hotel. A large suite of rooms at the Baldwin Hotel are being fitted up for the headquar- ters of Major-General James and staff. The location being central will enable officers having business with the head- m | quarters to visit there on evenings, as it 1s the intention of the general to have the rooms used as a rendezyous for visiting officers when in the City, which will be quite an innovation. Several changes have lately taken place in the personnel of the staff, wnich con- sists. of the following officers: Colonels Currier, Gallwey, Sumner; Lieutenant- Colonels Miles, Cluff, Stone, Pott, Ner- nev, Edwards, Barrere, and Major Wetbern. In the appointment of his staff General James has constantly sought to recognize long and faithful service, either in the army or National Guard, and all of his ap- pointees have been well known for such service.
