San Fkancihco, Juno 2. There will
be 200 invitations issued for the execu
tion of Dun-ant. Warden Hale has fixed
0:30 a. m. as the hour of execution.
Twenty-five medical men will bo per
mitted to witness the tragedy. At the
request of his attorneys Durrant yester
day made a formal demand for release,
claiming to bo unjustly imprisoned.
This will be part of the appeal to the
Buprcino court, and is to cover the point
which might be made that by failing to

lost the right to complain.
The appeal raises a point which, ac
cording to the statement of Durrant's
counsel, has never been raised in this
state, and must be decided before Dur
rant can be hanged. The contention is
that Judge Bahrs inflicted two penalties,
imprisonment and death, while the law
eays one or the other. Counsel will !
hold that Durrant's life in San Qnentin 1
is not detention, but imprisonment;
that the position of the attorney-general
is untenable, as life in the county
jail carries with it no shaving, stripes
and no indignity other than detention.
This statement will also be heard in
the federal court where it is expected
that the same course will be taken as in
the Worden case that of securing a

That tellB the awful fate of George
Kaufi'man. He stood guard over his
father's granary to protect it from
thieves, who killed him at his post and
sought to wipe out the evidence of their
fiendish cruelty with fire. Today all
that remaines of him is a corpse with its
throat cut, its skull crushed and its head
bullet-pierced, a charred lump of flesh.
There is no clew to the murderers who
committed the crime, but blood
hounds are on the trail.
ueorge Kaullman was the son ot lomas
Kauu'muti, a prosperous farmer, living
about five miles north of Sterling. He
was 22 years old. FarineKaufTinan has
two dwelling-houses with about a quar
ter of a mile between them. He left his
old homo for his present dwelling a year
ago, hut used some of the buildings at
the former residence.
Lately Kaufiuian discovered that
thieves were raiding his granary, located
near the old residence. He asked his
eon George to take up his night quarteis
in the deserted home and watch for the
plunderers. George KaufTmau began
bis vigils two weeks ago. He was un
successful and regularly went to the
other house for his breakfast. Tuesday

bour. The family waited eome time
without concern. Then his father be

his skull crushed. His throat had been
cut and the head was nearly severed
from the body. A bullet hole showed
that the murderer had shot the young
man.
Bloodhounds wore put on the trail, but
so far without success. The surrounding
country is intensely stirred over the
crime and friends of the young man are
demanding vengeance at the end of a

Herald from Valparaiso eays:
Congress opened with much ceremony.
lhe sessions will be held in the univer
sity, the capitol having recently been
destroyed by fire, and a new oue now be

The message of the president dealt
principally with the foreign-"relations of
the'government. These, eaid President
Ezzuriez, were in general harmonious.
With reference to the establishment of a
definite boundary line between Chile
and Argentina the two governments had
entered upon a period characterized by a
frank understanding and necessary con
cessions on both sides. Negotiations
were in Drogress, but the president said
it was too soon to inform congress at
length as to the results which the bound
ary commission had achieved.
The questions pending with Peru and
JJolivia the president hoped would be
determined before the year ended.
An agreement had been reached
through diplomatic means, whereby the
common relations of Chile, Peru and
Bolivia would be established upon an
amicable basis.

May Coiiih to Columbia ltiver.
Seattle, Wash., June 1. There was
a well-defined rumor on the water front
here today that the Northern Pacific
steamer City of Seattle will be sent to
the Columbia river to take advantage of
the summer traffic between Portland and
llwaco. S. G. Yerkes, who was formerly
in charge of Yesler wharf here, has re
signed his position with a prominent
shipping firm, and, it is said, will have
charge of the steamer. Owing to the
close lelations of the Northern Pacific
and O. R. & N. Co., it is probable that
the steamer will be sent into the hitter's
territory under charter to private indi
viduals. The boat is being overhauled
at Tacoma.
