Sympathy Expressed.
Chicauo, Sept. 24. "Wo ought not .to
hesitnto to do our duty and express our
righteous sympathy with the Cuban lib
orationists, even though it should involve
the United States government in a war
with Spain."
Theso were the words spoken lut night
by Rov. Dr. John Henry Barrows, pastor
of tho first Presbyterian church. Iu
company with a' great many other proui-
inont proachers of Chicago, the Rev. Dr,
Barrows foels strongly on the subject
and he is doing all in his power to stir up
a sentiment in fayor of the Cubans in
their struggle with tho Spaniards. Ho
will tako a leading part in the mass
meeting to bo held next Monday evening
at Contra! .music hall, where he hopes
that resolutions expressing strong sym
pathy with the Cubans will be adopted
Much of Rov. Dr. Barrows' feeling in tho
matter grpwj out of tho fact that ho visi
ted Cuba threo years ago last winter, aud
spent considerable time in studying tho
life, habits and modes of government of
tho inhabitants, and he speaks therefore,
with authority.
"When I visited Cuba," he said last
night, ''I realized why it was called tho
I'oarl of tho Antilles.' It is certainly
0110 of tho most beautiful portions of
God's earth, and it is possessed of almost
unlimited natural resources. And yet I
found a disheartened and down-trodden
people who have been eufferiug for gen
erations under oppression, tiio most
rapacious, exhausting and intolerable
that the world knows anything about.
The native Cubans seem to havo no
right or privileges which Spain is bound
to respect. Its unhappy eople of every
station are stripped of their possessions
by tax gatherers, as ruthless as thoso of
Turkey aud as hateful as those of Judea
in tho first century. Cuba has been a
great sponge and Spain has been squeez
ing her to fill tho coffers of the treasury
at Madrid, as well as the pockets of tho
numerous captains-general. Independ
ence from Spain is the only solution of
t!i Ci.ban problem.
"We have a right to show our yiu
pathy for tho oppressed everywhere, and
we ought to besiege our national govern
ment to acknowledge the belligerent
rights of these heroic liberationists. We
ought not to hesitate to do our duty and
express our righteous sympathy, even
though it should involve tho United
States government in a war with Spain.
I hope that such pressure will be
brought to bear that tho government will
be forced to tako some action favorable
to the Cubans."

Sensational Report.
, Si'iusofield, 111., Sept. 21. The most
sensational report ever issued by u state
bureau wasiuado, public by I he Illinois
bureau of Uhor tdatistic?. D churgeB
that iIib great majority of the wealthy
taxpayers of Illinois, and more especially
of Chicago, ure perjurers; that the
assessors are guilty of malfeasance in
office; that tho present financial condi
tion of Chicago is directly traceable to
the corrupt system of taxation, and that
the Ucplorablo condition of tho working
men is due to the "liberty-destioyiug
methods of taxation that prevail in
Illinois." Tho stand is taken that it is
idlo to dwell upoo the wages and condi
tion of the average wage-earner of tho
state.
The bureau contends that tins condi-
'is proved by evidence so clear and
abundant that tlio compilation of any
further statistics would be wasted
effort."
Tho bureau takes tiio iwsitiou that
taxation is the chief instrument of tyr
anny. What Will the Harvest Be?
The above is an important oticstion.
and one the solution of 'which involves
the weal or woe of the Oregon farmer.
Another question of equal importance
is, where shall we go to lay in our sup
plies of clothimr and drv troods? The
answer to tho latter question might be
readily answered by saying, "Go to the
Square Deal store of Wollenbenr & Ab
raham, where are kept large supplies
suitable for tho wants of nil, and which
they will dispose of foT greenbacks, gold
or silver, at very reasonable rates."
A Sensible Plan.
Sa.v Fkaxcisco. Sent. 24. When tin-
new racetrack at Incleside is opened.
next November, an Australian starting
machine will take the place of a man
with a red flag. One of the machines
was recently imported from the anti
podes, where they aro in vogue, and
gave marked satisfaction. The machine
consists of two bands of strong webbing,
each band about four inches in width,
made fast at both ends to a frame which
slides upward and away from the horses
at an angle ot about 4o degrees.
As soon as all the horses are lined un.
facing the webbirnr. the starter nulls
lever, which releases the trigger, sends
uie wehtnng llymK awiftlv and noise
lessly upward and outwanl. jiml Hit
horses are off in a line. The timinu will
Ikj done by electricity.
An automatic indicator placed alxivn

Deuprey's Charge.
San Fkascisco, Sept 25. When the
Durraut trial opened this moinine Detec
tive Gillson was icross-sxamined bv the
defense. He denied tbe newspaper in-
tcryiew in which be was made to say that
ho saw footprints in tho dust cn the
stairs of tho belfry, made by No. 8 or 9
boM. He denied all knowledge of tho
alleged footprints.
Deputy Coroner Hallett wa asked
whether Blanche Lamont's mouth was
open when the hotly was found, and eaid
slightly.
Mrs. Leako was recalled. Deunrev.
for the defense, asked her whom she saw
besides Durrant from her windows on
April 3. Sho could not remember any
one. Asked it" she had ever been ex
amined for myopia within the last three
years, she said no. Asked if any ono in
Coulterville bad examined her eyes, she
eaid no.
Deuprey then delivered his opening
address for the defense. He said the
defense is so clear and convincing that
everybody must believe it when he heara
it. Nothing would bo offered in evidence
except what was read and substantiated.
The case of the prosecution was wholly
dependent on circumstantial evidence.
Circumstances cannot lie, but witnesses
can lie. He talked of tbe importance of
the doty of jurors in capital cases. Im
proper inferences, suspicion and guess
work shoulJ bo entirely absent. Sensa
tional articles in the newspapers should
not influence the jury. Tho onus of
proving guilt lies on the prosecution.
Each circumstance must be proved.
Tho evidence must prove the guilt of tho
defendant to a moral certainty. He
complimented Barnes on his opening
statement which indicated strong sus
picion. Ho then said in part: "Wo claim that
Imyond suspicion, which is not proof, the
case against the defendant fails. Where
did Blanche Lamont forfeit her life and
when.? And who caused her doath?
These questions have been before tho
eyes of tho world since April 14. Months
have passed and no answer comes. The
fourth question is what was tho cause of
tier death? The fifth question cannot bo
auswered, what was tho motive of her
murder?
"It would bu proper for tho court to in
struct the jury to acquit without a word
for tho defenso, but duty to .Durrant and
tho public should unseal Durrant's Hps.
Tho jury is entitled to know tho move
ments 01 Durraut on'April 3. His Btory
shall bo told and pieco by pieco we shall
tear tho mask of falsehood from the faces
of the witnesses for tho prosecution."
Deuprey then read part of District At
torney Barnes' openiuc addresB which
promised to show that Durrant was not
at college on tho afternoou of April 3.
Deuprey asked, "Where is this proof?
Wo aro not here to furnish a BenBation.
Wo shall attack the position ol the pros
ecution. Wo will Bhow that other, men
had access to tho church. The proof
may point to others aa the evidence is
unraveled."
Deuprey thon outlined the witnesses to
be called for the defense. First is his
mother, to be called to tell about the life
of Durrant and his family. She will tell
how Durrant was clothed on April 3.
Tho good repute of tho accused will be
proved. "Wo will answer the question,
what did Durrant do ou Aprils? That
morning nt 7 :55 ho left home and walked
to tho car at Twenty-first and Mission, to
sen Gnorgo King to get him to holp fix
the sunbiirners of the church. He met
Blanche Lamont and told her he was go
ing to King's house, and asked her to go
with him, but she said she bad not time,
They took the car to Ninth and Mission,
tlii-n nn L'tikiu to Sutter then west on
Hutler. At tho hiv-h school Blanche- left
and Durrant went to Webster, then
walked to tho medical college. We will
show what ho did all the morniog. At
1 :30 ho wont to tho study-room to pro
parohis thesis for graduation At 3:30
ho attended Dr. Cheney's lertnre, and
wo will produce his notes; thpy are
different from the notes of any other
student. The lecture closed between 4
and 4:15. Roll was called and Durrant
answered. Ho tiien rode on tho Sutter
Btreet car and Larkin-street car to Ninth
and Mission, took tho car there on Mis
shu to Twenty-second, then walked to
Bartlott street into the church alone.
Wo will be corroborated in this. Ho ar
rived at tho church at 4:55, and entered
the door on the south side. Ho went
into the library to see about a book and
card. He then removed his coat and
hat."
Deuprey continuing his remarks, said:
"Durrant then went up over the ceil
ing over the gasburner and there com
menced work. Tho gasfilter did not
touch tho sunburners. We will show
that tho church was filled with gas
which had escaped the day before while
tho gas men were at work. There was
no ventilation. He was affected by the
gas which nauseated him. George
King was playing the piano in the church
three minutes before Durrant appeared.
You are asked to believe that Durrant
went to King to obtain a witness
against himself, when he knew King was
in tho chuch. When King went for the
bromo selzer, Durrant lay on the plat
form until he returned, Then he helped
King move the oriran. We will show
how difficult it was to move the organ.
He then went to the libary with King.
The door was locked, but Durrant un
locked it and they went in. Durrant
put on his coat and left the church with
King. After leaving King he met a lady
friend, and asked about the health of
her husband. He then went home to
supper and attended a church meeting
in the evening. After that he went
home.
"We will show the evidence found in
the church made by a chisel. The chisel
was found in Rev. J. George Gibson's
tool box. The letters mado on the news
paper which enclosed Blanche Lamont's
rings, compare exactly with Rev. J.
George Gibson's writing. Others besides
Durrant are opon to like and worse sus
picions." Duprey then attacked the credibility
of the three girl witnesses, who said tbey
saw Durrant on the car with BlancheLa
mont. Tbe methods of identification of
Durraut by the police were denounced
as outrageous, inbumanand uncivilized.
At this point Judge Murphy interrupted
and warned Duprey not to discuss the
testimony. Duprey continued :
"We will show that on April 3, Durrant
was attired entirely in a black suit of
clothes." The attorney then produced
in court a pair of black trousers which
he said were worn by Durrant. Sirs.
Vogel testified that Durrant wore light
pants. We will show tho distance trav
eled by 3Irs. Crosset would take 5S or 60
minutes. We will introduce expert testi
mony on tbe eyesight ol tho old people.
Wo will show that 3Irs. Leake failed to
recognize acquaintances and even failed
to recognize Durrant when he bowed to
her. She did not even know him when
he called at her house. We will expose
Martin Quinlan and David Clarke. We
will shew that Oppenbeim did have a
conversation with a yonuL. man who
tried to pawn a ring, but not with Dur
rant. Durrant never wore an overcoat
in the daytime. Oppenbeim did refuse
to buy a ring from a man who wore a
long coat. We will expose Oppenheim's
reputation, and also Phillips,' who cor
roborates his testimony."
Denprey then quoted District Attorney
Barnes, asking that Durrant bo declared
guilty and banged by tho neck until
dead. Ho looked straight at Durrant,
but tno latter never quivered. Dueprey
continued :
"If Durrant is really guilty, he should
bo hanged and quartered. If we show
what we have outlined, tbe spirit of
Blanche Lamont would whisper, "Set
him free, for he harmed me not." Dur
rant is innocent. We stand for his life.
We demand it."
At the close of Dueprey 'b address a re
cess of 10 minutes wns taken. Wheu
Deuprey made the startling insinuation
against Rev. Gibson, there was a sensa
tion in the courtroom, and it was taken
practically as an accusation by the de
fense that Gibson murdered Blanche La
mont. After the recess, Mrs. Durrant took
the stand as tho first witness for the de
fense. In response to Dickinson's ques
tions she told of her birthplace in To
ronto, her marriage to Durrant senior,
aud her coining to San Francisco. Tho
prisoner waj bornApril 21, 1S71, in To
ronto. Sho told of the life of herself and
family in San Francisco up to to April 3.
She said the prisoner had done consider
able electrical work in Emanuel church.
Barnes objected to this question, and tbe
answer was overruled. Durrant gradu
ated from the polytechnic school, and
then attended Cooper medical college.
Rccces was then taken until 2 o'clock.

The Silk Skirts Cheaper.
The original cost of a white skirt is
perhaps f2. A woman who wears white
skirts cannot be dainty with less than
three white skirts a week. She may re
quire more. In other words, she needs
seven or eight white skirts in her ward
robe, which will denote an expenditure
of $15 at the lowest limit. To launder
the skirt will require an outlay of at
least 15 cents a piece each week. H
three skirts are worn, the total is 45
cents a week. In a year the washing of
her skirts will cost $23.40. If her laun
dress charges the usual rates, however,
she will pay more than this.
For $(5 apiece a woman can buy excel
lent silk skirts. If she buys three and
uses them in alternation, tbey will last
her for a year. She will not have to pay
for their laundering. If she changes
them frequently, gives them brusbings
and airings enough, they will not need
the cleansing effect of soap and water.
She will Bave, on the least calculation,
$7 a year, enough for a new silk peticoat.
And she will always walk with tbe rust
ling sound dear to the feminine ear.
