It Decides There Is No Appeal in the Case Before It at the Present Time, JUDGE BAHRS GETS A TGUCHING UP. The Justices Intimated That They Would Hand Down a Decision in a Short Time, The fight which Durrant’satforneys have been making to prolong the life of their client is drawing near an end, and the condemued murderer may soon be called upon to pay the penalty for his crimes. Unless some new complications arise, which at this time do not seem probable the day upon which Theodore Dnrrant will look his last upon earth will be set for the last time, for the Supreme Court sit- ting in bank yesterday morning virtually decided that there were no appeals in the case. The Court also indicated its inten- tion to give its decision in writing witho delay. T.1s is just what the attorneys for Dar- rant do not want, They wished that they shouid be given the regular time in which to fil= briefs and go through the other legal formalities usual in appeal cases. All this would take a great deal of time, and time is what the legal gentlemen who are trying to prolong the life of their client are striving to gain. Their hopes in that direction were crushed yesterday when the court indicated that tie appeal from the oraer of Judge Babrs fixing the | execution of Durrant for Friday, Novem- | ber 12, had aircady been disposed of oy | the ixsuance by the Supreme Courtof a certificate of probable cause in that mat- ter, which practicaliy amounted to a re- versal o the order. The courtroom was crowded when the matter came up. Attorneyvs Dickinson, Deuprey and Boardman for Durrant were looking somewhat anxious. Acting At- torney-General Carter was alone in the legal contest and conducted his end of the controversy with sxill. Af ergiving a brief history of the case Mr. Carter asked that the appeal be dis- missed. He stated that the time for the execution bad been passed and admitted informally that there was error in the order of the court in setting the day of execution. He was interrupted by General Dickin- son, who stated there wus an appeal pend- ing and that it should be ailowed to take its course. “The appeal does not stay_the excu- tion,”” remarked Chief Justice Beatty. He inferred that the refusal 10 grant a cari ficate of probable cause on the first ap- | pea! which was heard at Sacramento was | | equivalent to an affizmation of the de- c.-ion of the lower court. The granting of the certificate of probable cauxe in the | second appeal amounted to a reversal of the order made by Judge Bahrs. Mr. Carter made an argument in which he coniended that there was nothinz whatever in the case to be litigated or | dec.ded by the court and that the time tixed for the ex-cution had passed. He questioned the jurisdiction of the cour: as ibere was nothing to litigate, +Isn't the place of confinement of the prisoner a question that is raised by appeal?” asked J ice Henshaw. | fact that the time fixed for the execation | has passed does not affect that.” Mr. Uarter stated be did not think that that was an issue in the case. *‘Do you think that the last order of this court ing the execution is still in force?” asked Jusiice Garoutte. Mr. Car- ter answered in the negative, when he was again asked: “Then why do you proceed on that theory and ask to have the date of execu- tion fixed 2’ *‘Because,’” he answered, ‘it is a dan- gerous thing 10 execute a n.an when there is the slightest doubt as to the legality of the proceedings. We want the question left without any doubt whatever.” Justice Beaity then s ated that the or- der of the lower court had been reversed in effect and that the court was ready to reverse it in form as <con as the papers on appeal wers filed. He disagreed with Mr. Carter's views that tue court nad no juris- diction in the case. “The judze of the lower court,” said Justice Beaty, “*has said in an article to the newspapers over his own signature that he could not under<tand the decision of this couri, so that it may be as well to write one that he can understand.” General Dickinson arzued that the ap- peals should not ve diemissed. “There is the q uestion of double punishment which has not vet been decided.”” He objected strenuously to the submission of the ap- eal. 8 “The question of double punishment was deuied when we refused to issue a certificate of probable cause,’’ said Jus- tice Beatty. ‘Al rhere is for you tu do,” he contin- ued to Mr. Carter, ‘‘is to submit the ap- peals and let the couit make the formal decision in accordance with the views al- ready expressed.”’ “Then we mustsubmit the appoal,” said Mr. Carter. General Dickinson ob jected, and argued that they had the richt to be heard on the question involved in the apreal pend- ing. Mr. Carter then made a formal admis- sion of error, S0 as to secure a formal re- version of the order of Judge Bahrs. “We ar- entitled to know,” suid Gen- eral D.ckinson, “what is the proper time 1o elapse before sentence or execution can be put into effect after the affirmation of a judgment.”’ “We Lave already decided that forty- eight hours is insufficient time, and there now remains nothing upon that score for the additional reason that the f-sue has been passed upon in previous cases.” an- swered Justice Beatty. Itis believed that a decision on the case will b= handed down in a short time, as Chief Just.ce Beatty inferred as much {;v his remarks. Attorneys believe that the District Attorney shoula act in the mat- wer, and have Durrant brought up again for sentence. If the proper time is allowed to elapse after the passing of the sentence and the day set for the execution, i: is thought that there will be no more hin- arances. Dr. D’Evelyn to Speak.

They Were Abandoned on the Steamer and Brought Back to the City. The Boys Escaped From the Home of the Ladies' Protective Relief Society. The audacity of two small boys caused fvh-. rolice ana officers of the California | Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to L Children no end of troubls yesterday. When the stearaer from Stockion ar-| rived yesterdsy morning the captain gave two boys into the charge of the harbor | potice, that they had been | abandoned by their father. | A man and the boys had taken passaze | on the steamer Saturday night, the m saving A SOUTHEASTER AGAIN EIPECTED The Harbor Got a Foretaste of It Yesterday Morning. Several Vessels Took Advant- age of the Gale and Sailed In, Daylight Raid on Whitelaw's Junk Store—Only One of the Burg- lars Arrested. Another coutheaster is predicted and vessels north or south bound from Puget Sound may expect another rough time of it. Coasting schooners now in port are warned not to sail until the weather con- ditions are more favorable. Yesterday morning it blew pretty heavily on tae bay and vessels moored to | the south of Market street had to ret out extra lines. The schooner Tartar, moorea at the bulkhead between Main and Beale streets, broke her guard and also two fen- der piles. An advertising sign, 30 feet long by 7 feet broad, was blown from the roof of the ferry depot and wrecked. Luckily there was no one about at the time. The French bark Reine Blanche after being buffeted around Cape Horn caught the storms again off the coast and had a | bard time of it. Finally a pilot go aboard yesterday morning ‘and sailed tiie vessel into port. The Reine Blanche was 157 days getting here from Swansea and | ehe looks as if she bad been tarough heavy weather. Not one of the crew could speak a word of ish, and the quarantine officials had quite a time of it getting a bill of health from the captain. The brig Consucio from Mahukona also sailed into port. Her caplain reports that on Sunday night he saw two ships in the distance, one a three-master and one a four master. The former was probably the Reine Blanche. The steamer Columbia from Astoria was behind hana last night, and was probably de!aved by the southeaster. Tiere was a diplitheria scare on Alca- traz I:land last Sunday over tne death of the son of Private Collins. Dr. H, E. Mc- Vay, the post surgeon, set all doubts at 1e5t by stating positively that the boy had died from quinsy sore throat. Ssven or eight children come over from Alcatraz on the sienmer General McDowell to at. tend school every day. Private Coll daughter goes to a school on Mission street, and over a week agoshe went home complaining from a sore throat. When she began to mend her brother was taken sick, and finally died from the disease last Sunday night, Tne following changes among the offi- cers of the Pacific Coast Steamship Com- pany’s fleet have goneinto efleci: Cap- tain Snea, Iate chiefofficer of the Pomona, is now master of the Alex Duncun, Cap- tain Olsen of the Duncan is now master of the Sgnia Cruz, and Captain Hinkie of the Santa Cruz hasgone to Portland to take command of the Georga W. Elder. Captain Johnson of the latter vessel will | come to San Francisco. The Vallejo steamsr Monticello is to have new boilers put in next month and when the change is made Captain Hatch says his ve-sel will be faster than ever. The jolly skipper is just back from a visit to Puget Sound and, to put it in his own words, “There is more wind than business up there.”” Seattle, he says, is “‘booming on paper’” and Tacoma is only a little bet- ter. Alln all, Captain Hatch is not very much impressed with the outlook in Washington. John Eaton was locked up in the Har- bor Police station yesterday by Officer Crosby, on a charge of burglary. He and two companions broke into Whitelaw’s junkstore and were smashing up brasses, preparatory to carrying them away in a wagon, when two of Whitelaw’s men heard them at work. They summoned the police and Crosby arrested Eaton, Tne other two thieves got away, but as they are known to the police their arrest is only a question of time. HARRY COOPER CONVIOTED. The Defense Submitted Its Case on the Prosecution’s Evidence. It took a jury just three minutes to con- vict “‘Baron’’ Henry Westwco ' Cooper of forging and uttering a check on the Aus- tralian Bank in Judge Cook's court yes- terday afternoon. The case acainst Cooper went on trial in the morning and the prosecution began to introduce its load ot evidence. As the check alleged 10 b- forged bears the si nature of Dennis & Waliace, who are supp s:d to reside in Australia, and owing to the difficulty or impossibility of identifying the signatures of people living iu that tar-off land, the prosecution for atime bardiy expected to secure a conviction. Itintroduced ali the evidence at bLand, however, and then cested the case. Attorney T, K. French, representing Cooper, then mwmoved the rourt to instruct the jury to acquit the deiendant. The court refused, and the attorney, after noting an objection, sub- mitted the case. The jury filed outand three minutes later returned and entered a verd:ct of guilty, The case will be car- ried to the BupremeCourtand there Attor- nev French hores to clear his client on technical grounds.

The executive committee’'s report wa read by W. P. Sullivan Jr., Mayor Phelan’s secretary. It related to the freeholders in nomination. The ticket nominated by the Citizen Charter Couveniion and by | the Non-Partisan party was declared to | stand *‘for the respectable and honest | citizenship of San Fra co,” while the ticket nominated by the recognizea and duly authorized county committees of the several parties was denour.ced as the work of the “united bossesand corrupt corpora- tions.” The following candidates for freeholders were indorzed: James Builer, A, Comte, Jr., P. H. McCarthy, [ Gutieand Joseph O'Connor. Then came the bombshell. It read as follows: That in regard to Dr. E. R. Taylor. named by the charter convention aad Non-Partisan party as a Democratic nominee for frecholder, we regret that we canuot indsrse him as election he opposed the candidacy of our party uominee, William Jennings Bryan.

As soon as the report was read a com- mitteeman mov d that it be adopted. After a Leated discussion the report of the committee was adopted. In the report the following Republicans, Joseph Brittan, H. Ciement, L. R. Ellert, John Nightingale, John (. Nob. mann and Lipman Sachs; and Jerome A. Anderson, A.ired R. Cridge and A. W.
