THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL. FRIDAY, JULY 2, 189T7. AMDVET0 HANG THE DURRANT Governor Budd Wants the Supreme Court to Issue - | a Mandate. | | | WARDEN HALE'S ‘FIRM. POSITION. | A Secret Conference -of - High Officials and Nothing Decided. FEAR A MORE COMPLEX MUDDLE. The Papers'in the Murder Case Now in the United: States Su- preme Court. For a time vesterday it iooked as though & new complication would arise in the. tase of Theodore Durrant, who is now unaer the death sentence for the marder of Blanche Lamont.. A writ of mandate was prepared in the office of the Attorney-| General, with a_ view of compelling War- den Hale to earry out the order and judg- ment of the court-—in other words, hang Durrant.. This petition never became ah official document, for it never went farther than the-hands of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, where it now is. . While in the harids of the Chief Justice it was like the proverbial bot potato, for at all accounts that official did not know what to do with it and, though he might like todrop it, it is still there. It. will. be remembéred that when the Bupreme Coart refused to interfere with the judgment and order of the lower court imposing the aeath penalty, the casewas taken into the Federal courts and now is before the United States Su- preme Court on an appeal. There it na3 supposed it would stay until that tribupal saw_fit to take it up aad dispose of it, which will not be before the October term. ‘Darrant was sentenced to be executed on June 1L, and pending -the latter proceed- ings.Governor Budd commuted the ser- tence {0 July 9" And herein iies the dil ealty, for in ordinary cases the Warden wouid proceed with the execution on that dute, “The Governor, the Warden and the Atvorney-Géneral know tuat the case is in the highest. tribunal in’ the land, and vet there "i3 no emphatic stay of exe- cution issued out of the Federal courts. Tuis state of uffairs caused the Guverno* somé uneasiness, and a few days ago he wrote 10 his legal adviser, the Attorney- {;éneral, for opinion as to what -to do in 1he premises, and followed up the letter by’ coming te this City in person. to .loax after the case. -AS stated, the petition for a writ of mandate was prepared in the of- fice “of the: Attorney-General and yester- day -it “was placed in_the hands of the Chief Justice. Tnen:followed.a long con- suliation, in whick the Governor, a repre- sentative of the Attorney-General and all of the Justices of the Supreme Court 100k part. The. greatesi secrecy was thrown around that meéting, and none who tcok part woujd give .the least-information about the -proceedings.. Sufficiént was | Jearned, however, to justify the belief that the whole lot had run up against 2 snag that tliey could not get around. | Inthe first . place 1t is understood that Warden Hale has intimated that he will | not hang Durrant on tbe 9th inst. .This knowledge. reaching the Governor’s eurs | was what started the mandate procced- ings. - Warden Hale takes his position | upon his knowledge of the case being in | the United States Supreme Court. Even | shonld a writ of mandate be issued o the | ‘Warden there is no possibility of his obey- | ng it, for he could at.once sue out a writ of error or sue-for'a stay of execution. If he shoula not desire to do this Durrant, as an.interestéd party,.could do either or both. : Buch a proceeding’inu the Federal courts wouid tie the hands of the Judges ol the State :courts and the State officers until after the dread .day, Julvy 9, and thet %ould siave off the whole matier for | another two or three months, for the sn- tire.legal machinery would have to peset in motion o¥eragain. That- i§, :Durrant would have to be brought back from ‘the State prison, pre- sented.in.court and resentenced. As the execution -eould’ not .take. place ‘at once, between. two -and “thrée months would | elapse before he wouid be Lrought again’| within the. shadow of the gallows, and it is5°just kuch delays as this that tke defense | is “desirous ot securing. The Attorney- | General and the Justices of the Supreme Court are no doubt-aware of -all this, and - their failure to arrive at a .conclusion yes- terday waa cdused by a desire not to'tum- | bie.into any_legal pitfalls. | After: the ‘conference Goverrnior Budd showed no disposition to discuss what had 1aken place; saying that nothing had been done . and would not -be until he had a chance to discuss the matter with the At- 1orney-General to-day. H- had not seen any petitian for a writ of mandateand did not know that any had been filed with the clerk, and a< a fact none had besn. At- tormey-General Fitzgerald positively de- clined to discuss the matter and woulu not affirm nordeny that he had prepared such a petition. . Eugene N. Deuprey, counsel for Dur- rant, had heara something about it and was watchtul and on the alert. He | stated that he did not believe that the Su- preme Court would do such a thing as the Governor contemplaied, for the Justices | would not be likely to interfere in a niat- ier that has been taken out of the Siate court and placed in the nighest tribunal in the land. Said he: “Ifa writof man- | date be taken out and served, in spite of the fact that the case is on appeal to the United States Supreme Court, we will sue out a writ of error and put a stop to its being executed. Under such a procedure Durrant couid not be hianged until after | being resenterced in the State court. This jis provided for 1n section 1227 of the Re- vised Statutes.” ‘While the case stands as it is it is safe to say that nothing of a very startling nature will come out of it, and it is be- lieved that the conference between the Governor and the Attorney-General and 1he deliberations of the Supreme Court Justices will result in all hands letting matters stand -as they are. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 1L—The papers in the appealof W. H. T. Durrant, under sentence of death in San Francisco for the murder of Blanche Lamont, were received by the clerk of the United States Supreme Court to-day. The appeal is from the decision of the Circuit Court of -the United States for the ninth circuit-in refusing to grant Dur- rant’s motion for a writ of habeas corpus. In his . petition. .Durrant- alleges . the | administered the obligaiion, and Mr. Morse irregul nd illegality of the proceed- | after iving the congratulations of his ings agaiust -him -in- the Calilornia State | {riends a'd fellow-laborers, sssumed the duties couris in " that. the trial was conducted upon information not in accordance with the equal vrotection of the laws and not by due process of law, and that the testi- :| mony "was | until the 12:h - October, and the appeal introduced and ° conviction secured without due process of law and without a trial by an 1mpartial jury and without process. of law. S ] Particularly, he says, the prosecution by information instead of indictment by Grand -Jury is-in conflict with the ffth and fourteenth amenuments to the con- stitation, as_in section 809 of the Penal Code of the Stare, under which his prose- cution was conducted.” Hence he alieges that the courts in which his examination and trial were conducted were . without Jjurisdiction: He contends that the refusal of the court to - grant a changé of venue wmounted -to refusing a fair trial. He | also complains of the rfusal of the court io punish for contempt the publishers of | the San Fraucisco newspapers in publish- ing acconnts detrimental to his (Dur- rant’s) inferests in -having u fair trial, thereby influencing the procedure of the court_and- prejudicing the jury against] him, The Supreme Court will not sit again. cannot be urgued before that time.

For the second time in three months burglars made a succes<ful raid early yes- terday morning on the grocery-store of John H. Schmidt, at 124 Tavlor street, corner of Eddy. The first time they cut through two of the large panes of glass in the show- window, and emptied it of all the liquors within reach. A third pane was aiso cut with a diamond, but they found it un- necessary to break it in. The groceryman neglected to have the glass replaced, and yesterday morning the burglars got in through the pane tkey ignored three months before. Again wines and liquors were appro- priated, nothing else. The deed was ac- complished between 1 o’clock in the morn- ing and 6 o’clock, when Ingver Petersen, the clerk, opened the store.

Once- a Much Petted Belle in Oakland’s Swell Society. Her Family and the Police of Two Cities Seek Her, Believing She Is Demented. Mrs. Addie A. Farnum, the mysterious woman who caused the arrest of Street- car Conductor R. D. Jackson.on a charge of robbery, is a much-sought-for person. The police have not yet been able to locate her in any one of her allegea residences or in her hunnts. Private detecuves, too, have joined in the chase, at the instiga- tion of her family, who, by the way, are dreadfully mortified at the scandal cast upon them by one of theirs. Mrs. Addie Farnum was the petted daughter of N. W. Spaulding of the Pacific Saw-manufacturing Company and ex- Mayor of Qakland. One of her brothers is assistant cashier at the Fireman’s Fund Insurance Company. Two of her sist are married and occupy high social po:i- tions. All these are shocked over the notoriety their relative has thrusi upon them, and they are now seeking her to plead that she desist in the prosecution of Conductor Jackson. In speaking of the matter yesterday Spaulding, the brothe id 2 My father and our family would have preferred the death of one of us rather than the disgrace in which we have been placed. *1 have not seen my sister Addie for six months past. She was a wayward girl and father could do nething with her. Her married life ended in great trouole and divorce, then she went out from us into the world, and we had lost sight of ber until this new scandal. “‘When Addie had the conductor ar- rested, saying he had robbed her of her purse containing $100 ana jewelry she said that she was an adjuster for the Fireman's Fund. This is positively untrue. She never was connected w:th the company even in the remotest way. Her husband, who was an inspector of agencies for the Home Mutual, never was connected with us either. “1 am sorry for the poor conductor who finds himself in trouble on my sister’s ac- count, for 1 fear some injustice has been done him. My sister, [ am sure, is flighty ana irresponsible,’” Conductor Jackson, who is outon bonds furnished by Attorney Julin« Kahn and Tax OCollecior ‘Block, yesterday sum- moned two important witnesses, who will testily that they met Mrs. Farnum on the night of June 16 in Qakland, where sue related to them a strange tale of purse- losing. One of the m-n is a freightcar conductor who met the woman at the Six- teenth-sireet station at a late hour, aiter the last passenger-boat had left for the City. bdhe was quite well dressed and seemed to be under the influence of liquor. She said that she had been robbed of her purse and $600. All she had left was 15 cent<, and she must get back to this City and her husband, who was wait- ing tor her, or get into much trouble. The conductor gave her a ride to the mole, where she told her tale of woe again to the night watchman and she was per- mitted to cross the bay on_a freight boat. There is a tea merchant on Fillmore street who will testify that she told him last Saturday night that she had but $20 in her purse when she was robbed. che likewise made t! same statement to Policeman Connors. All these circumstances, added to the fact that the woman swore to a false resi- dence in her complaint upon which Jack- son was arrested, and her subsequent dis- appearance tend to cast discredit upon her story of abuse and robbery.
