They Include Every Article Pnbll.bed la Kvarr Local Paper Concerning the Crime and Dorrant'a Trial, and Re fer to tbe IMemlaacl of Juror Brown. Ban Franoisoo, Nov. 29. Theodore Durrsnt appeared before Superior Judge Murphy today for sentence for the murder of Blanohe Lament He looked well-nourisbed and contented, spending the time before the opening of court in reading papers and chatting with friends and counsel. When the case was called, General Dickinson, for tbe defendant, began to read from bundle of 251 type-written pages of affidavits, on which he based his mo tions for a new trial. The affidavits include every article published by every local paper concerning tbe crime and Durrant's trial. In the affidavit Durrant lays particular stress on the statement that some witnesses for tbe defense refused to testitfy in bis behalf because of the comments in advance of the newspapers. Reference was also made to the action of tbe court in granting peremptory challenge of tbe prosooution to Juror Walter 8. Brown, who had been aooepted and sworn to try tbe case. Tbe action of tbe court in accepting C. P. Nathan as juror was also dealt with and the record of the court quoted to show that Nathan was aooepted in tbe faoe of the challenge of the defendant Not a point was overlooked, and tbe affidavit even recounted an attempted attack upon Durrant by an unknown person in tbe corridors of the city hall during the progress of tbe trial. Ref erence was also made to the crowd who gathered daily at the county jail and city hall to see the prisoner taken to and from jail to the court. Dickinson consumed tbe entire day in reading the affidavits. District At torney Barnes will also present counter-affidavits and argue the motion. The decision of the court on the mo tion will not likely be made for sev eral days. - SAYS CORBETT IS A COWARD Martin Julian Claims Fltaalmmona Champion of the World. la Philadelphia. Nov. 29. A letter from Martin Julian, manager for Fitz Simmons, was received in this city to night It is dated Houston, Tex. Julian charges Corbett with oowardioe, and says John Keenan, of New York, is an enemy of Fitzsimmons. tie said: 'As regards Fitzsimmons crossing the line and going to Hot Springs, will say that it was utterly impossible to safoly Broas anywhere. The entire town was guarded, and we could not have crossed without being killed, as such threats were made to us. In con clusion, I will say that I have already claimed both the middle-weight and heavy-weight championships of tbe world for Fitzsimmons, who is the only champion; that Fitzsimmons stands ready to defend both titles against the world, and all comers, pro viding they be white men, for from $5,000 to $10,000, first come first served. "Should Mr. Stewart fail to drag Corbett out of tbe bole be has cowardly crawled into, then Fitzsimmons will be only too pleased to fight Maher or any other man living, xo.iurtner show how willing we ate for a fight, I will leave the selection of a referee to Stuart and Corbett I will sign ar ticles blindfolded. If Corebtt wants to prove he is not a coward, he will ac cept Stuart's offer for a fight near El Paso for a purse ot 30,ooo, wnion ne agrees to divide between the two men should be fail to bring the fight off the dav selected, without interference of any kind. That is the faireBt proposi' tion over made, and I do not think Cor bett will ever accept it, because he is too faint-hearted to go up against man of Fitzsimmons' caliber in a fair and square fight, where orookedness and put-up jobs are not tolerated, Lord Bholto as Manager. San Franoisoo, Nov. 88. A local music ball, to whioh no admission is ohareed. announces that Lady Sholto Douglas will soon appear on its stage. She and her husband are said to be to day en route to this city from Los An roles. It is said that hereafter Lord Sholto will act as his wife's manager, WATCHMAKER F. POTTER Jewelrv Will Be Taken HOKE SMITH'S REPORT. The Condition of Affairs In the Interior Department. Washington, Nov. 80. Secretary Hoke Smith, of the interior depart ment, baa made his annual report to the president It reviews the work of the department beginning with the In dian service, and calls attention to the strict enforcement which has been given to civil-servioe reform, both as to those places covered by tbe classified service and those to which the rules of this service do not apply. Tbe secretary dwells upon the neces sity of eliminating politics from the management of Indian affairs, and of conducting each reservation upon strictly business principles, the object being to make every Indian who re mains upon tbe reservation sell sup porting and ready, as soon as possible, to assume tbe duties of citizenship and be freed from the paternal care of the government The secretary thinks that if the resources of the reservations are treated intelligently, and the Indians accustomed to labor, in a few years praotically all the Indians can be made self-supporting. The secretary recommends tbe reor ganization of tbe bureau as follows: First That instead of a single com missioner of Indian affairs, tbe Indian service be placed in charge of three commissioners, two of them to be ci viliansto be appointed from different political parties and one to be a de tailed army officer. Second That the tenure of office of an Indian agent be dependent upon the faithful discharge of bis duties, and appointments and removals be made by the president upon recommendation of the three commissioners of Indian affairs. Third That classified service be ex tended over all the subordinate posi tions, both at the agencies and at the schooL The reduotion of 20 per cent, which the law required to be made in connec tion with tbe Indian contract schools, has been strictly carried out, and the secretary adds that there seems to be no reason why such reduotion should no( continue from year to year until the system of government aid to sec tarian schools shall terminate. Referring to the allotments, the secretary says there are a number of changes which should be made in the present allotment system, which re quire congressional action. Aocording to the present law, an Indian becomes a citizen of the United States upon re ceiving his allotment In any case he is ready to receive land before be is prepared for the con sequences of citizenship. Allotments should be made long before reserva tions are opened. Each Indian should be settled upon bis homestead and be self-supporting before citizenship is conferred upon him. When citizen ship is oonferred, the government ought to let him alone and allow him to take his place, surrounding him with no more restraint and giving him no more help than is accorded to other citizens. Under the present system, Indians to whom allotments have been made and upon whom citizenship has been con ferred still receive enormous gratuities, and need every dollar they receive. Upon each reservation a part of the Indians will be ready for citizenship before others, and all are ready for land and to work it before they are ready for oittzenship. The law should be changed so that allotments can be made upon the recommendation of the agent to those who are ready for it, and patents should be issued later with the approval of the secretary ol tne in terior to these Indians upon showing themselves ready to receive the lands assigned. He also recommends that general au thority, with tbe approval of the presi dent, be given the Indian bureau to sell parts ot Indian reservations, the money to be used for the payment oi lands for the purchase of agricultural implements and cattle for the Indians who may reside on the remaining lands. Referring to the Unoompaghre reser vation, he calls attention to the faot that through the geogolioal survey, an examination has been made or tne gu aonite beds, whioh seem to be of very sreat value, and be reoommends legis lation to allow these deposits to be sold or leased to the highest bidder. The report reviews the Jackson Hole disturbances, and stives an account of the active means taken by tbe depart ment to secure justice for the killing of the Bannook Indians July 15 last, and also to preserve peace between the In dians and whites. He reoommonda the peaoeful oourse of the Indians under circumstances so extremely aggravat ing on the part of the whites. Harry Bayward Confeaaea. Minneapolis, Nov. 28. Harry Hay ward, who is to be hanged next month tor tbe mnrder ot Catherine Glng, and who has protested that he is innocent, has oonfossed his guilt At the time of his trial.

Toplca of th Day Dlecueeed by the Leading Papers. Philadelphia Times. The fact that agriculture is in pro cess of gradual abandonment in Great Britain may account in part for the great increase in immigration from that country, the number of arrivals since August aggregating 238,000. It evidently does not pay the British farmer to raise wheat on high-priced British land. The next problem is to make this land profitable in some other way. The decline in wheat acreage, this year is 26 per cent less than 1891. This indicates that upwards of 200,000 acres of land have failed of cultivation because agriculture no longer pays. Torrens Land Title Lav. Chicago Ttmes-Heiald The Torrens law, affecting as it may every land title in the county, is of in finitely more importance to all the peo ple than any other law of recent times. There are immense interests opposed to it, and everything that can be done to discredit it will be done. It is therefore important that tbe friends of the law as speedily as possi ble bring about a case that may be taken to the supreme court and have the law brought to its ultimate test Th Hawaiian Government. Boat d Herald. Minister Castle's announcement that the present government in Hawaii is increasing in populatrity with every body except the Kanakas appears to be tantamount to a boast that it is in dis favor among about two-thirds of the population.

They have dedicated their lives to the ser vice of the country with the belief that their labors would surely bring them what they earned; but after all their endeavors they have been disappointed, and the prize bas gone to men of infer ior merits, as if in contempt of the rules of justice and propriety.
