ORCHARD'S STORY
. BACKED UP AGAIN
(Continued From First Page.)
a tek'gram from Denver showing that
the date on the draft for J100 sent by
William D. Haywood to Jack Slmpklns
was December 21, 19u5. Orchard testified
-that when Simkins left Caldwell, after
tue failure of the first attempt on the
life of Frank Steunenberg, he asked him
to get 100 for him. The unsigned letter
which Orchard got at Cal'lwell after his
arrest and which he said was written by
Mr. Pettlbone, one of the co-defendants.
Informed him that "that" had been sent
to "Jack" on December SI, 1906, and that
he should have received it. The state
produced the drafts sent by Haywood to
Slmpklns and among them was one for
1100 sent on come date In the 20"s of De
cember, 1906, but the particular day could
not be made out because the second
tlgure had been cut out by the perfora
tor used on the draft.
Detectives were detailed to further
trace the J100 draft and the telegram from
Denver today states that the bank rec
ords show that December 21 was the date
of the issue. The testimony involved is
of such Importance that the state may
delay closing its case until It can produce
it. or it may close with the reservation
that it be permitted to make later proof
of the matter.
TROVE ORCHARD GOT MONEX
Telegraph Records Link Federation
Officials With Confessed Murderer.
BOISH. Idaho, June 20. Unless there
should be unforeseen delay in securing
a couple of final pieces of evidence, the
state will tomorrow close Its case against
William D. Haywood, whom it charges
with the ninrder of Frank Steunenberg.
This announcement was made this after
noon by Senator Borah, one of the special
speakers, and when Clarence Darrow of
the defense took up the discussion of the
Rrrangement of time, he made it very
t-iear that directly the state closed he
and his associates would move the court
for an instruction directing a verdict of
Hcqulttal. It Is now anticipated that the
state will close by noon, that the after
noon session will be devoted to argument
of the expected motion of the defense,
and If the court rules adversely on the
motion, the opening statement in behalf
of Haywood will be made by Mr. Darrow
on Saturday.
Telegraph Records Aid the Case.
The prosecution- succeeded today An
attain showing a direct connection with
the store of George Pettlbone in Denver
and J Tarry Orchard at work on the Brad
ley crime In San Francisco, and promises
to make the- connection with Pettibone
personally by handwriting experts who
will be called tomorrow.
Original records of the Pacific postal
Telegraph Company were produced that
showed that in September and October,
J I'M. remittances of J97.50 and US, re
spectively, were made, the first by "J.
Wolff.' and the second by "P. Bone."
from 1725 Stout street in Denver the ad
dress of Pettibone"s store, to ,"H. Green.-'
In care of Peter I Huff at 211 Taylor
street, San Francisco.
W. V. McCartney, who was cashier of
the Denver office of the Postal Telegraph
Company in the Fall of 1904. came here
from Cheyenne, to identify and explain
the records that showed the remittances.
The exhibits included both the appll-,
ration-forms and telegrams of instruo-'
tions ordering the payment of the money
st San Francisco. "J. 'Wolff." and "P.
Bone.'.' both waived the Identification of
"H. Green" at San Francisco, and It la
rlalmert that the handwriting in both In
stances is the same, and that It is the
same as In the letter Pettlbone wrote
to the Mutual Life Insurance Company
when Harry Orrhard joined that corpor
ation as a solicitor.
The state also showed that while at
(Silver City. Idaho. In ICS'S. Haywood
declared that Steunenberg was a
tyrant and monster who should be ex
terminated, and by James Klrwan. act
ing: secretary-treasurer of the Western
Federation of Miners, that Jack Slmp
klns and Marlon Moore were made
members of the executive hoard of
the Federation in 1906. and that con
trol of all expenditures made by the
organization vested in the president
nd secretary-treasurer.
How Miners Hated Steuncit'icrg.
.For the rest It was a day of read
ing with Senator Borah as first reader.
Judge Wood admitted manv of the
trongly-wnrded articles of the miners'
niagasine. In which Frank Steunenberg
was bitterly denounced, and as one
ifter another they were let In Borah
read them to the jury. These were ad
mitted as showing the animus of the
Federation officials against Steunen
berg. and as showing animus against
Justices Goddard and Gabbert of the
Supreme Court of Colorado, whom Or
rhard swore he tried many times to kill.
The stat Introduced In evidence the de
risions of those Judges on the Colorado
eight-hour law and the habeas corpus
application of Charles II. Mover.
The defense insisted that Borah
read every word in both decisions,
and the first, which took 45 minutes
to go, over, was read before the neon
recess and cleared the court of all
save those whose duty required them
to stay. The other was read with like
effect soon before adjournment for the
day. Then Attorneys Richardson and
Darrow called for the dissenting
opinion in the Moyer case as a matter
of fairness, and demanded that Borah
read that also. Judge Wood took pity
upon the weary reader, however, and
said If the defense wanted the dlssent
, Ins; opinion It must designate one of
Its counsel to read It. Mr. Darrow
wa selected as reader, but be will
not be heard until tomorrow.
To practically every piece of testi
mony offered during the day the de
fense first offered objection, then made
a motion to strike out and lastly took
an exception on the record. To all
evidence connected with the general
conspiracy alleged by the state the ob
jections of the defense Included the
propositions that the acte shown were
not binding on the defendant, and that
they were not connected with the
Steunenberg murder and there were
frequent objections to the evidence of
fered to corroborate the testimony of
Harry Orchard that he had an al
leged accomplice In the manner pro
vided by the statute.
(HOW HATRED OF DEAD MAN
Miner' Magazine Ised Harsh Words
Toward Steunenberg.
BOISK. Idaho, June 20. When court
opened this morning. Judge Wood an
nounced his decision on the admissibility
or articles In the Miners' Magazine as
evidence. He said the court was thor
oughly satisfied as to the admissibility
of the articles appearing in the maga-
line, showing the animus of the Western
Federation of Miners during the period
of the commission of the series of crimes
confessed by Orchard and alleged by him
to hate been incited by officers of the
Western Federation of Miners. Articles
appearing after that period, the court
said, -would not be admitted. -
The most Important of the articles
read to the jury by Senator Borah was
entitled. The Passing of Steunenberg."
It appears In the magazine issued for
January, 1901. It begins:
"On the 10th ot January, 1901. Frank
Steunenberg, of Idaho, will sink Into
obscurity from public view where he
shall forever lie buried, damned for the
outrages he committed upon the work
lngmen of the Coeur d'Alenes during;
the past 20 months."
Continuing, it says:
"Four years ago. when the president
of the Western Federation of Miners
helped make this monstrosity Governor
of Idaho, be said he did not have 320 In
cash, but four years later. In 1900, he
was able to spend M000 to manipulate
the Democratip State Convention."
In conclusion, the article says:
'When men and women will bless the
name of Paul Corcoran, the model hus
band, the honest man, imprisoned by
this filthy .reptile, Steunenbe,rg's name
will be uttered with loathing. Fare
well. Steunenberg. . once Governor of
Idaho; your political career Is ended.
You have done everything in your
power to send the men who made you
Governor to the penitentiary and,
worse than all, you stand before the
world a convicted perjurer before a
Congressional Investigating commit
tee. But your cheek has long since lost
the blush of shame and your damnablo
deeds will never appeal to your man
hood, for such you never possessed.
Your sole ambition was money, which
: in your estimation was superior to
honor, but you are gone, and upon your
political tombstone shall be inscribed
In Indelible words: 'Here Lies aHlre
ling and a Traitor." "
Animus of Defendant Shown.
The jury was not brought' into court
this morning until after Judge Wood had
handed down his opinion as to the ad
missibility of the . articles from the
Miners' Magasine. judge Wood said he
had decided that many of the articles
should be accepted. These were the ones
printed prior to the death of Governor
Steunenberg. As to articles subsequent to
that date, the court declared It had some
doubt and would resolve that doubt in
favor of the defendant.
"The evidence in the case on trial,"
said Judge Wood, "shows considerable dif
ference from the case cited yesterday by
counsel for the defense, and known gen
erally as the anarchists' case. In that
Instance the state relied upon a chain
of circumstances, and many of the publi
cations there admitted were published by
the defendants themselves and were a
Balled for the specific purpose of showing
the Intention of the defendants to commit
the crime charged and their animus to
ward the police.
"In the case on trial the evidence of
the state purports to come In part from
one of the parties to the defense. That
witness Btated that not only has he com
mitted the crime here charged, but sev
eral others as well, and he Is relied upon
to enow that the crimes were committed
at the instance of this defendant and
other defendants, paid to be the manag
ing officers of the Western Federation of
Miners. i
"The magazine offered In evidence ap
pears to have been under the control of
those officers. The court is convinced,
that as showing fhe attitude of the or
ganization and the attitude of the man
aging officers, their animus and feeling
toward those against whom the crimes
were committed or attempted, certain of
the publications cited by the state are
admissable. The court will admit the
articles bearing on former Governor Steu
nenberg and former Governor Pea
body. Judges Gabbert and Goddard and
several others. As to the articles follow
ing the commission of any crime, the
court has some doubt, and will resolve
that doubt In favor of the defendant."
"To which ruling," Interposed Attor
ney Richardson, "we desire to preserve
an exception."
"It will be noted." said the court.
"And we would also like a ruling to
state that the defense may Introduce
any articles it desires from the maga
zine," added Attorney Darrow.
"The court will pass on that -when
It comes to It." said Judge Wood.
Senator Borah then read from a copy
of the first Issue of the magazine, the
article written by Ed Boyce. In which
he outlined the policy of the magazine
as proposing to stand for the interest
of the Western Federation of Miners
and in a general way for the Interest
of all' the laboring masses against the
"predatory classes."
Warning Threat Froru Debs.
The second exhibit, a letter from Eu
gene Debs, and published In the issue
of February 1, was also read by Sen
ator Borah. In the article Debs greet
ed the magazine and paid a tribute to
the announcement of Its policy by
Boyce. He went on to denounce Gov
ernor Steunenberg and the officials of
Idaho In the severest terms as "whelps
who should go back to their native
hell, and who shall not escape the con
sequences of their crimes."
Debs compared these "vile official crea
tures" with 'Paul Corcoran, who was
found guilty of murder In the Coeur
d'Alenes and whom Debs called an honest
workingman, standing magnificent In the
strength of his righteousness. In conclu
sion. Debs wrote:
"Know ye, Steunenberg, 'and others,
that we have an account to settle with
you."
Senator Borah also read from the issue
of the magazine of February. 1900. an
editorial entitled "Another Outrage," deal
ing with the alleged circulation of a peti
tion by Governor Steunenberg for a con
tinuance of the Federal troops In the
mining districts of Idaho. The editorial
declared that Steunenberg was being well
paid for persecuting the Miners' Union;
denounced Mm as a Hessian and as an
"unscrupulous person, never known to
speak the truth."
The next exhibit was a long extract
from a speech by Ed Boyce, president
of the federation at that time, deliv
ered -on miners' day at Butte. Mont., In
1900. Boyce devoted himself mainly to
a denunciation- of the Standard OH
Company In connection with Its Inva
sion In the cepper field. Boyce referred
to Governor Steunenberg as the hire
ling of the "oil trust."
From time to time Senator Borah"
offered in evidence the list of officers
ot the federation published in the mag
azine. In the first issues quoted the
officers Included Ed Boyce. president;
James Mayer, secretary and treasurer,
and William D. Haywood and Charles
II. Moyer as members of the executive
board.
In the July issue of 1900 was an ar
ticle signed by Ed Boyce urging all the
worklngmen to support Eugene V. Debs
and Joseph Harrlraan for President and
Vice-President, respectively. - and de
nouncing McKinley and Roosevelt and
Bryan and Stevenson as representatives
of the capitalistic classes. The article
cited "the case of Governor Steunen
berg. who sold himself to the Stand
ard Oil Company to plunder, rob and
murder the men who elected him to of
fice." In an editorial in the Miners' Magazine
for January. 1901, entitled "The Passing
of Steunenberg." epithets are applied
without stint to Steunenberg. who Is
charged with getting rich on the "greasy
dollars of the Standard OH Company and
of the ' mineowners, whose servant he al
ways has been."
Epithets Without Stint.
Condemning Steunenberg as a vile
thing, deserving only contempt, hatred
and political death, the article bids fare
well to Steunenberg as a creature "over
whose political tombstone should be in
scribed the words "Here lies a hlrellns
and a traitor." The article also referred
to Steunenberg as a "Hessian, a "villain
and mineowners' lackey, . whose . name
should be uttered with loathing by every
honest man."
The reading of the magazines continued.
Judge Wood naming each exhibit and
announcing at the same time that an ob
jection by the defense to its admission
would be overruled and an exception
nottd.
The matter Introduced today covered a
wide range from political comment to ex- 1
treme denunciation of Steunenberg, Pea
body and Goddard coming in for the
greater share of the more violent lan
guage. The dates ran from 1900 to the
end of 1905, but Judge Wood ruled out all
the matter offered from the magazines
and appearing in the numbers announcing
the death of Steunenberg. Before recess
Senator Borah stated that the state would
undoubtedly close tomorrow.
After recess this afternoon. Senator
Borah offered In evidence a decision of
the Supreme Court of Colorado In the
case of Charles H. Moyer. denying a writ
of habeas corpus to the President of the
Western Federation of Miners. The
opinion was written by Chief Justice Gab
bert and was identified for the purpose
of showing alleged animus of the Federa
tion against the jurist whose life was at
tempted by Harry Orchard. The read
ing of the decision of the court was dis
pensed with for the time being to enable
th" state to call to the stand James Klr
wan, acting secretary of the Western
Federation of Miners in the absence of
Haywood. . v
Klrwan detailed the duties of the "office
he now fills. He was asked about the
membership of the executive board in dif
ferent years, the object being to show
that "Jack" Slmpklns, implicated by Or
chard in the first attempt upon Gover
nor Steunenberg, was a member of the
board in 1904, 1906 and 1906. Kirwan said
this was true. He said the president
and secretary-treasurer are ex-officlo
members of the board. Money from the
treasury of the organization 4s paid out
by the president and secretary-treasurer.
This was all that was desired of Mr.
Klrwan and he was released without
cross-examination.
"Ought to Be Killed" Haywood.
E. M. Stuart, a machinist, of Baker
City, Or., formerly chief engineer of the
Trade Dollar mine at Silver City, was
called to testify as to a conversation he
had with Haywood in 1899. The defense
objected to the testimony on the ground
that any criticism of Steunenberg In the
Coeur d'Alene troubles could not have
anything to do with the fixing of respon
sibility for his death. It was also ar
gued that In 1899 Haywood was but a
working miner, having no office what
ever in the Western Federation of Min
ers. Judge Wood allowed the testimony.
"Mr. Haywood said Governor Steunen
berg was a tyrant and monster and
ought to be killed I believe exterminated
was the word, he used," said the witness.
Cross-examined by Richardson, Stuart
said that criticism of Governor Steunen
berg was common among the miners at
Silver City, because 1000 miners were in
the "bull pen" at that time and were held
without trial. Asked how it was he re
membered what Haywood had said, Stu
art replied:
"I had always looked on Mr. Haywood
as a model citizen and was surprised 'to
hear him say what he did. Haywood
made several such utterances thereafter,
but so far as his conduct was concerned
be remained a model citizen."
Stuart said several other men were
present when Haywood made the state
ment regarding Steunenberg. He could
not recall any of their names. He dtd
not remember the names of any of the
men at work in tbe mine at the time.'
' The next witness was W. V. Mc
Cartney, who in 1904 was cashier of the
Postal Telegraph Company at Denver.'
He was examined, and identified an ap
plication filed -with him for the transfer
of a sum of money. The Identification of
the men to whom the money was sent
was waived by the sender. The papers
indicated that the money was paid.
Records of Money Transfers.
The papers were then offered in evi
dence. The first- proved to be an ap
plication made by J. W. Wolff of 172S
Stout street, Denver, to have the com
pany pay $96.60 to "D. Green, care Peter
I,. Huff, 211 Taylor street, San Fran
cisco." "J. Wolff" Is alleged to have been the
name taken by George A. Pettibpne and
1725 Stout street was the address of Pet
tfbone's store. Orchard testified he had
received this money from Pettlbone, who
had told him "Harry Green" was a good
enough name for anyone. The date of
the money transfer was September 10, the
time Orchard was in San Francisco en
gaged In operations against Fred Bradley.
The second paper showed the transfer,
on October 15, 1904, of $43 to "II. Green"
In San Francisco from "P. Bone,"
Denver. Orchard testlfle that the name
"Pat Bone" was often used by Pettlbone.
The defense did not cross-examine Mc
Cartney, but msved unsuccessfully to
have all of his testimony stricken out as
not tending In any way to connect the
defendant Haywood ' with the killing of
ex-Governor Steunenberg.
Senator Borah said this ended the
state's case with the exception of some
records from the Denver office of the
Western Unlqn Telegraph Company
which are expected tomorrow. If they
arrive the state will close by tomorrow
noon. i
The Senator then, as the last bit of
work for the day, read the decision deny
ing the writ of habeas corpus to Charles
H. Moyer.
Defense Will Move to Dismiss.
The defense Insisted that a dissenting
opinion of the court should also be read.
Judge Wood granted this. but said
Senator Borah would not be required to
do the task. It was finally agreed to let
the reading go over until tomorrow morn
ing at 9:30 A. M., to which time court
adjourned. '
Attorney Darrow stated that after the
close of the state's case the defense would
have an Important matter to present to
the court before proceeding with the open
statements as to the line . of defense.
This will be -the notification that the
defense will move the court to Instruct
the Jury to render a verdict of not guilty
on the ground that the state has not
sufficiently connected Haywood with the
death of ex-Governor Steunenberg. If
this motion is denied, the defense will
ask for an adjournment until Monday
when Mr. Darrow will make the opening
statement-

POSTAL WAS NOT INVOLVED
Trouble Which Started Strike Talk
Kot of Their Concern.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 20. (Special.)
The Postal Telegraph-Cable Company has
taken the position right along that it was
not involved in the controversy which the
Western Union Telegraph Company is
having with its employes. Edward J.
NaUy, vice-president, general manager,
has given out the following statement
as to his company's attitude. He says:
"Now that all of the troubles of the
Western' Union Telegraph Company have
been adjusted, I wish to say for the Pos
tal Telegraph-Cable Company that the
statement to the effect that this com
pany refused to consider requests or com
plaints from its employes, either individ
ually or as a committee, is entirely un
true. We have always been very glad
to meet any of our employes and to con
sider any matter which they might care
to present.
"For instance, our Chicago employes
recently made application for a still fur
ther increase of wages. Inasmuch as we
increased the wages of operators, chief
operators and managers 10 per cent on
March 1. and on April 1 gave the chief
operators an additional Increase, and on
the same day we Increased the salaries of
our clerical force, we did not feel Justi
fied in making still further increases. And
we explained to them the reasons why.
"On June 12 I wrote a letter on that
subject to our general superintendent in.
Chicago, Mr. Capen, as follows: 'Please
say to the employes whose names are
signed to the communication of recent
date addressed to you. and which you
forwarded to me with your letter of June
6. that we are unable at this time to give
favorable consideration to their request
for shorter hours and increased wages.
We have already done all we can afford
to do. We cannot. In justice to the com
pany's interest and with business pru
dence, do more. If, in the list of minor
grievances submitted, there are any that
call for attention and consideration I
shall be glad to have yours and Mr. Car
roll's recommendation as to what you
think should be done In each case. If,
there are any rules in force which may
at times work a hardship upon our em
ployes we should do our utmost to rem
edy that. Great care should be exercised
to prevent underchiefs and others from
unfair enforcement of rules and regula
tions and from unjust discrimination and
unkind treatment of the force. It is
the earnest desire of tbe management
that all our employes shall be treated
with consideration, and that every rea-
feel the exquisite thrill of motherhood with indescribable dread and
fear. Every woman should know that the danger, pain and horror
of child-birth can be entirely avoided by the nee of Mother's Friend.

TOO ILL TO BE IN
PLEA SCHMITZ SETS TJP TO GET
OUT ON BAIL.
Attorneys Declare Client Is Suffer
ing From Incurable Disease, Re
ported to Be Kidney Trouble.
SAN FRANCISCO. June 20 Mayor
Schmitz' attorneys late this evening ap
plied to the District Court of Appeals
for the release of the Mayor on ball by
writ of habeas corous. Sixteen showings
are made In the petition and at least one
of them is decidedly sensational. It Is
a declaration by his attorneys that the
Mayor is suffering from an Incurable dis
ease, and that imprisonment in a jail will
cause his death. It is understood that
the disease referred to Is an affection of
the kidneys and that It has advanced to
a serious stage.
The petition alleges that the section of
the penal code under which the Mayor
was ordered into custody is unconstitu
tional in that the petitioner is deprived
of his liberty without due process of law.
The petition further alleges that Impris
onment of the Mayor Is In furtherance of
a conspiracy by Rudolph Sprockets and
others through a coercive power over the
Board of Supervisors, who have con
fessed their guilt of bribery, to usurp
the office' of Mayor and secure full politi
cal control of the affairs of San Fran
cisco by removing all appointive officers
of the city by arbitrary. Illegal and revo
lutionary means.
By reason of the grave and serious
questions that must arise from carrying
out such a scheme, the petitioner- urges
that the facts alleged constitute such ex
traordinary circumstances as will justify
tbe court as a matter of discretion in ad
mitting the petitioner to ball.
Scheme to Evade the Law.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 2J. Attor
neys for Patrick Calhoun and his
associates in ' the trolley-franchise
bribery and the attorneys for Louis
Glass, of the Pacific Telephone and
Telegraph Company, disclosed today
the ground" upon which they hope to
set aside the Indictments against their
clients. Briefly stated It is this:
In January, 1906. the Superior
judges prepared a list of 144 grand
jurors and subsequently delivered the
list to the County Clerk. In the great
fire a year ago the list was preserved
by tho clerk, but the record of the
proceedings at the time the list was
prepared was destroyed. It is now
claimed that because this record was
not restored before the lmpanelment of
the present grand jury that body has
no existence in law and, therefore, the
indictments are void.
Member Grand Jury Dies.
BAN FRANCISCO. June 20. Chris B.
Rude, a member of the present grand
Jury, died today.

Test Our Cigars by Contrast
Under normal conditions the resources of Cuba are taxed to grow
'enough tobacco to keep up with the world's increasing demand.
The failure of a crop hits everybody who does not prepare for
it. We did.
Cuban tobacco is today as scarce as it was during the Spanish War,
But we have an ample supply and are putting it in onr cigars.
-Most other manufacturers are forced to resort to substitute leaf
of domestic growth, or inferior grades of Cuban tobacco. -
Our Imported and Clear Havana Cigars are as good as ever. Try
them by contrast and the test will prove it.
