BOISE, Idaho, June 24. (Specials
Clarence S. Darrow's opening statement
to the jury In the Haywood case today
was a disappointment. . Like .the .cross
examination of Orchard by E. F. Rlch
ardRon, it seemed to lack purpose, and
those who expected a strong and plausi
ble line of defense failed to find their
expectations realized.
Mr. Darrow talked three and a half
hours, but. beyond entering some denials
and making some charges, he accom
plished very little, while his effort made
a bad impression everywhere. He made
the dual mistake of admitting what could
not be explained and offering diaphanous
explanations of those things which he de
clared the dofense ready to prove in
refutation of testimony brought out by
the state.
At times he dropped into stump oratory
to relieve the monotony, as when he
launched into laudation of the Federa
tion, when he attacked the mining com
panies and when he boiled over with
well-simulated indignation at the work
of the Pinkerton agency. In his attack
on the mining companies, he sought to
make it appear that these were oppres
sors of the miners until the Federation
came along and humbled them into the
dust, compelling them to give their men
enough to eat and afford them proper
hospital accommodations when ill. To
those who know something of the pro
vision made for miners in practically all
camps where metalliferous mining is
conducted, this all sounded very cheap.
Explaining Money Sent Orchard.
The opening disclosed many glaring
meaknesses. One of these was the ex
planation the attorney made of the pay
ments made by Pettibone to Orchard. He
admitted only . those payments which
have been proved Independently of Or
chard's testimony, but left the Inference
that there might have been more. The
explanation was that Orchard deposited
money with Pettibone to be sent to him
when he might need It. The Use of the
aliases was admitted, but this was tamely
explained by the statement that the
miners in the Cripple Creek district who
were deported all changed their names.
Orchard was not deported, " and the de
tense says he enjoyed especial immunity;
nor was Pettibone at Cripple Creek, nor
ret was he deported; yet these two men
both used aliases frequently In com
municating with each other. Orchard
gave directions how the money was to be
sent, according to Mr. Darrow, and Pet
tibone elmply complied with the direc
tions. This explanation related only to
those payments which have been traced.
Orchard had left the money In Petti
bone's safe; Orchard the gambler had
left his cash and gone away 1500 miles
and then telegraphed for It In driblets.
That story is one that few will be willing
lo swallow.
According to Mr. Darrow, Orchard
lied as to most everything else but
those transactions respecting which
the state introduced conclusive proof,
and as to theee the attorney offered
the kind of explanation stated.
AVeuk Points In Argument.
Of the letter from Haywood to
Orchard's wife, Mr. Darrow had nothing
to say beyond the statement that they
would handle that when the witnesses
were placed on the stand. Mr. Rich
ardson avoided that In his argument
the other day. and the public is rather
Interested to know what kind of an
explanation is to be brought forward
later respecting It.
Throughout Mr. Darrow's argument
were the contradictions that were so
prominent in the work of Mr. Richard
son in conducting the cross-examination
of the chief witnesses of the state.
Mr. Darrow questioned what Orchard
said about the Independence explosion.
but the defense expected to show it was
brought about by the mlneowners. The
latter did not Intend to kill anybody,
but wished simply to make a demon
stration to create prejudice against the
Federation. For the purpose of such a
demonstration they loaded enough
giant powder under that platform to
tear everything to pieces, whereas
half a dozen sticks would have been
sufficient for any such mild purpose.
Fut while the mlneow,ners blew up
these men at that station, it was Orch
ard sure enough who killed Steunen
berg. Two Contradictory Arguments.
One statement made by Mr. Darrow in
effect was that this was not a trial of
theee men for murder, but a trial of the
Western Federation by the Colorado
mine-owners, the case having been sent
to Idaho for JAe,Eurpo?a of bre&nx saX,
HAYWOOD
the Federation. How it happened that
Orchard did the deed that precipitated the
prosecution, it It were the work of the
mine-owners, is difficult to understand,
unless the murderer were in the -employ
of the latter, but Mr. Darrow distinctly
acquitted Orchard of being the tool of
anybody in this crime. That manifestly
was because it would conflict with an
other theory, to have him working for the
Colorado mine-owners in committing the
murder, since it Is to be proved by a
dozen witnesses that he did it for per
sonal revenge.
Again, Mr. Darrow admitted that Or
chard told the truth when he said Simp
kins went to Caldwell with him. . Of
course he did; other witnesses saw. him
there with Orchard. But Mr. Darrow did
not seek to explain why Simpkins took an
assumed name or why he. disappeared off
the face of the earth so soon, as the fact
was made known after the murder that
he had been seen at Caldwell with Or
chard. Mr. Darrow passed that feature
over very lightly, declaring Simpkins was

on a. regular tour of official duty, going
Immediately afterward to Denver.
Draft Sent to Simpkins.
Then followed a remarkable statement
respecting the draft sent Simpkins on
December 21 for Orchard, in regard to
which Pettibone wrote the latter that it
had been forwarded in that manner. Mr.
Darrow said Simpkins had more money
in his pocket when he got ready to leave
Denver than he needed. So he gave Hay
wood J100 and asked him to buy a draft
with It and send it to him.
There were many other such glaring in
stances of accommodation of the defense
to proved facts, explanations being of
fered which it would require volumes of
testimony to lodge in the mind of any
person. All who heard the statement
were surprised at Its weakness In the
particulars and in its lack of strength in
setting up any positive defense.
The effect on the jury was noticeable.
The Jurors lost all Interest after Mr.
Darrow had talked an hour. One seemed
to be trying to follow him through, but
the others were plainly "tired."
What State Has Up Sleeve.
Though it is known there are scores of
witnesses to go on the stand to testify
in contradiction of Orchard, this failure
of Mr. Darrow to outline a reasonable
plan of defense has impressed everybody
with the Idea that the defense is des
tined' to fall down ' miserably 'when 'its
witnesses get under cross-examination.
Persons connected with the prosecution
who are in a position to know what it
has left up Its sleeve say they will de
molish on rebuttal every theory advanced
by Mr. Darrow, besides proving on cross
examination a great many of the de
fense's witnesses are wandering far' from
the truth.
The defense seems to be a hodge-podge
of attack on mlneowners. laudation of the
Federation and explanations that conflict
with each other. Mr. Darrow intimated"
throughout that Pettibone was not close
to the inner circle, whereas it can be
rroved he was hand In glove with the
officials of the Federation in everything,
and It Is going to be difficult for the de
fense to withstand the showing that will
be made on that point before the case
closes.
DARROW STATES THE DEFENSE
Will Prove Orchard Liar and Mine
owners Conspirators.
BOISE. Idaho, June 24. Mr. Darrow. in
opening his statement of the case for the
defense, reminded the Jurors of the in
struction given them by the court that
they are to keep their minds entirely open
as to the guilt or innocence of the accused
man until all the evidence from both
sides has been introduced.
"You have listened to the theory and
the evidence of the state," Mr. Darrow
proceeded. "Mr. Hawley has covered a
wide ground in his opening for the state.
and we will have to meet him step by
step. The defendant has been charged
nationally with the murder of former
Governor Steunenberg. But tile state has
told you the case rests upon a giant con
spiracy of which, the defendant was
among others a part.
"The state's attorney has told you the
murder of Governor Steunenberg was
but an incident. They have told you the
Western Federation of Miners was an
agent to commit murders, to control poli
tics, to hire lawyers and other criminal
things.
"Part of this is true: part of it Is not
true. It is true that there Is a labor or
ganization known as the Western Federa
tion of Miners. It is true the Western
Federation of Miners has spent money
for lawyers. It was unfortunate, but most
people have to employ lawyers at some
time or another.

CHICAGO, June 24. (Special.) Stock
holders representing a minority interest of
60,000 shares of Chicago Terminal Trans
fer Railroad Company's stock filed a peti
tion in Judge Kohlsaat's court today, ask
ing to be allowed 'to Intervene in pend
ing litigation against the company, and
charging Edward H. Harriman. James
Stillman, Jacob H. Schiff and George J.
Gould with causing the bankruptcy of the
company through fraud.
The petitioners are George I. Malcom,

Edward L. Oppenhelm and James L.
Laldlaw, who are represented In the fight
by Homblower, Miller & Potter, of New
York; Knight & Home, and Hopkins,

The receiver of the Terminal Company,
John N. Faithhorn, also filed an answer
to the former petition of the Baltimore &
Ohio Road in opposition to the effort
which that company is making to have
the terminal property sold, subject to a
99-year lease which It holds. It is this
lease which the minority interest has at
tacked on the ground that fraud was
committed by the head of the Harriman
system of railroads, the head of the
Gould system, the president of the Na
tional City Bank of New York and a
member of the brokerage firm of Kuhn,
Loeb & Company,
The charge is made in the minority pe
tition that, having worked their will with
the terminal property, and having prac
tically steered It to the brink of bank
ruptcy by a nefarious scheme to relieve
themselves from a financial .obligation,
Mr. Harriman and his friends sold out
their control and left the minority hold
ing the bag.
With respect to selling the terminal
property subject to the lease of the Bal
timore & Ohio, it, is stated that, If this
is done, that company will secure the
terminal for about J17,000,000, whereas it
is worth at least 127,000,000.
WALKER CHARGES COXSPIRACX
Promoter Attacks Harriman About
Tillamook Railroad Deal.
NEW YORK, June 24. A suit was
started today in the United States' Cir
cuit Court by Henry M. "Walker, a resi
dent, of New Jersey, against Edward H.
Harriman and other defendants, alleging
breach of contract and conspiracy to
prevent construction of the Portland, Ne-
halem & Tillamook Railway, in Oregon.
In his complaint Mr. Walker places his
monetary damages at $500,000. Two cor
porative defendants and 29 other indi
viduals have not been served, and for
this reason their names have been with
held by the court.
Mr. Walker says he was employed In
1906 by the officials of the Portland, Ne-

halem ft Tillamook Railway to float its
bdnds in London and make arrangements
with a California corporation, also named
as one of the ' defendants, to advance
$600,009 to be used in constructing the
railway, the security to be bonds of the
railway company. An issue of $3,000,000
of bonds was to be - disposed of by him.
for which he was to receive a commis
sion of 15 per cent, 2400 shares of" stock
and $45,000 in cash. The issue of bonds'
was to be delivered to - him in London,
where he entered into an agreement with
the London Share & Debenture Company,
which was to advance the sum of $2,400,-
000 on the bonds.
Walker said the bonds were not de
livered to him, and on his return to the
United States he found that the presi
dent of the corporation, and its board of
directors.' had refused to sign the bonds.
Mr. Walker also asserts that he found
"that by trick and-device the charter and
property of the railway had been trans
ferred to Elmer E. Lytle, an agent of
B. H. Harriman, and all the capital stock
of the road had been rendered practically
worthless through the influence of Mr.
Harriman." He says also, that Mr. Har
riman and associates brought sibout the
insolvency of the California' company,
which had contracted to loan the money
to the railway for construction purposes.
The complaint of Mr. Walker says that
Mr. Harriman and his associates are bit
terly opposed to the construction of this
railway, or any other in that - vicinity,
fearing it would Interfere with their
ownership and monopoly in that part of
the state.
Mr. Walker asks that a receiver be ap
pointed for the property, that officers of
the company be ordered to sign and issue
the bonds, account to him for 2400 shares
of stock they have wrongfully withheld
from, and pay $35,000 legally due him. He
further asks the cancellation of all trans
fers made by Mr. Harriman or the latter's
agents, and that the road be restored its
franchise by the state of Oregon.
Mr. Walker's story has been heard here
before, but the man and his contentions
are quite generally discredited. - It is
pointed out by men connected with the
Portland, Nehalem & Tillamook Railway
scheme that lack of confidence in Mr.
Walker himself was responsible for the
failure to finance the road. .
Had there been merit in Mr. Walker's
case, it is believed that he would not
have waited a number of years, to bring
suit, but would have commenced action
immediately upon the development of the
alleged conspiracy. Portland people who
are acquainted with the attempt to build
the Portland, Nehalem & Tillamook Rail
way do not regard the Walker suit seri
ously. CAXNOT REMEMBER AST SUIT
Harriman Has Even Forgotten Name
of Railroad Involved.
NEW YORK, June 24. (Special.)
E. H. Harriman at his home in Tuxedo
last night told an Oregonian reperter
that he cannot recollect- the Portland
Nehalem & Tillamook deal at all.
."At the present moment I do not re
call the name of Mr. Walker and the
Portland and what-you-may-cail-it
railroad or any dealings. I have had
with either," he said.
"It la possible that Marshal Henkel
may have served me with papers, in
New York yesterday. But I am served
so often that I didn't take particular
notice. In the development of my rail
road interests in the West there are a
great many details that I haven't been
able to watch out for personally, and
of what has been done regarding un
built roads on paper I am particularly
ignorant. .
"If I was really served yesterday and
if Mr. Walker really carries this to
the United States Circuit Court, why.
I suppose I Bhall then learn what It is
all about. But according to my present
recollection I cannot connect the al
ledged suit with myself, either per
sonally or In relation to my railroad
Interests."

grann jury will continue ita investigation
tomorrow.
One Technical Point Fails,
Among the contentions set up by the
joint defense for the overthrow of the
indictments is that technically illegal
steps were followed in making up the
present grand Jury. It Is claimed, for
Instance, that the names of dead Jury
men notably Adolph Roos, a Market-
street liquor dealer were returned
into -the big Jury box after the 19 grand
Jurors, composing the previous grand
Jury, were selected, and that, as a re-
suit, the names of dead men were called
in the preliminary proceedings in the
selection of the present grand Jury.
In this connection Judge Lawlor
called on Sheriff O'Neil for a statement
concerning Roos. The Sheriff said he
was Informed by a relative of Roos
that the latter is not dead, but for the
last two years has been living in Paris,
where his life was saved by a surgical
operation performed IS months ago.
Assistant District Attorney Heney
stated for the prosecution that he had
identical information. Instruction was
given by the court to Verify it.
The examination of grand Jurors
relative to claims by the defense that
certain of them are disqualified by rea
son of expressed bias, .was the next
step in order; but the grand Jury, being
at the moment in session, this was
temporarily passed.

Defect in Court Minutes.
During the hearing Messrs Coogan
and Moore amended the Joint motion to
set aside the indictments on grounds
wftich, they declare; establish firmly
the illegality of the present grand
jury, and the invalidity of every act
and indictment by that body performed
and returned. . .
They called - Deputy County Clerk
Trefts to confess on the stand that he,
acting as clerk of the court, failed to
engross his court minutes and the
order of the court discharging the
previous grand Jury, and failed to enter
the fact that the present grand Jury
was sworn. From these admissions
and from the proved absence of the
entries, Mr. Coogan and Mr. Moore will
argue and atempt to show that no such
orders were by the court made and that
hence the Oliver grand Jury has no
lawful existence and all of its official
acts are void. Should this contention
be upheld, the whole bribery-graft
prosecution will fall and be swept
aside.
At tne time when those orders
should have been made," asked Mr.
Moore of the clerk, "were you sitting
so dose to the Judge that you would
have heard them if the court had made
them?"
"Yes," replied Mr. Trefts.
. Defects Can Be Cured.
A recess was then taken until 1:30
P. M. to allow investigation of the dis
puted point. The prosecution admits
that the order of dismissal and the
administration of oath were not
engrossed in the minutes, but alleges
this was merely an oversight of Mr.
Trefts; that the old grand Jury was
discharged and a new grand jury was
sworn, and that the minutes can be
lawfully corrected by an order of the
court.
At the resumption of the hearing this
afternoon Judge Lawlor ruled that the
omissions from the court minutes af
fectfng the last and present grand
juries could be cured by an order by
Judge Graham for their correction. So
far as the present hearing is concerned
this does away with the claims that
the Oliver jury is an illegal body.
Says Dunne Nodded Head. ;
One of the contentions of the de
fense is that the name of B. P. Oliver,
the foreman, was twice drawn from
the box. .The attorneys for the indict
ed officials allege that Mr. Oliver's
name was improperly returned to the
box after it had once been drawn by
Assistant District Attorneys . Heney
and Harrison without authority from
the court. Replying to this charge, Mr.
Heney angrily declared . " that Judge
Dunne had given the necessary author
ity by nodding his head. Judge Lawlor
refused to rule in the matter until the
testimony of Judge Dunne himself can
be secured. ' He is absent from the city
on his vacation.

Supreme Court Would Not Sus

CLASSED WITH SMALLPOX
Quarantine Against Tuberculosis la
Held to Be Violation of Constitu
tion Doctors Hold It t'nneces
ary for State's Protection.
WASHINGTON, June 24.-(Spec!aI.)-Federal
officials having to do with th
regulation and control of the public
health were exercised today to learn that
uiuemis oi Texas will
1 soon Issue a proclamation of permanent
quarantine against all persons affected
with the advanced stages of tuberculosis.
The , proclamation will place tuberculosis
in the same category with smallpox and
yellow fever, according to report, and Is
being issued because of the increased
Immigration of tuberculosis patients to
the dry climate of arid Texas.
It was said here today that under the
Federal statutes tuberculosis is not a
quarantlnable disease, either under the
maritime or Interstate immigration laws,
but Immigrants can now be kept out of
the United States when afflicted with
tuberculosis, under the new Immigration
law. The opinion was given that it may
be difficult to sustain such a quarantine
before the Supreme Court under the pro
vision of the constitution guaranteeing
the right of every citizen of the United
States to go from one state to another.
In each case the state - authorities will
be compelled to prove absolutely that the
person denied entrance to Texas Is suf
fering from tuberculosis in the advanced
stage, and the cost of such a quarantine
will be large.
On the question of public policy in
volved in such a quarantine no opinion
of officials could be obtained for publica
tion, but It is known to be the opinion
of some of the individual experts that
the study of tuberculosis has progressed
so far that a state of quarantine Is un
necessary and that Immigration of this
kind might be treated at tuberculosis
colonies if protective steps are necessary.
The issue raised in Texas has never
been heard of before by Federal officials,
although Colorado a few years ago agi
tated a somewhat similar step.
. Texas Shuts Out Consumptives.
CHICAGO. June 24. A dispatch to the
Record-Herald from Austin, Tex., says;
All persons suffering from tuberculosis
In an advanced state are to be debarred
from entering Texas.
Dr. W. H. Brumby, State Health Officer,
said last night thai within a few' days he
would Issue a proclamation establishing a
rigid quarantine against all persons af
flicted with the disease in an acute de
gree. In doing this he classes tuberculo
sis in the same category with yellow fever
and smallpox.
Dr. . Brumby has Just returned from a
trip of Investigation to points in South
west Texas, where he says he found many
health-seekers who has Just entered the
state suffering from tuberculosis.
