t'S LETTER
TO DECEIVE WIFE
Moore Does Not Help Haywood
' by Telling of Mailing It
in Alaska.
SENT TO PROVIDE ALIBI
Plan of Inner Circle to Cover Assas
sin' Trail Haywood to Testify
Monday Jurors Chafe at
the Close Confinement.
BOISE, Idaho, July 6. (Special.)
The publlo la wondering why the de
fense In the Haywood case put Marion
Moore on the stand today. He isthe
man by whom Orchard sent the letter
to Alaska to be mailed there to his wife,
to convey the Impression be was In that
region. "When asked about that on the
stand, Mr, Moore admitted he had taken
the letter, he did not understand much
about It, but had an idea Orchard
wished to get rid of his wife. On cross
examination he said he did not know
whether the letter was sealed or not,
nor did he remember whether ho dated
It before placing: It In the mall.
The fact is that the letter was sent
unsealed and was dated Just before It
"was mailed. The date, August 6, shows
It to have been written by some one
elte than the body of the letter. That
was In 1905. orchard's testimony with
reference to the letter was that he was
endeavoring to deceive his wife as to
his whereabouts. He had written her
two letters as from San Francisco.
These were ostensibly sent to Federa
tion headuuarters In Denver, where
they were supposed to be mailed to her,
and she was directed to send her reply
to headquarters to be mailed there to
him, putting the directed envelope In
another with the Denver address.
Orchard was in Denver and he tUrted
his wife was worried about his doings
and he feared she would tell the police
bout him and get him arrested to keep
hlrn out of the other trouble.
Moore Makes Admissions. '
Mr. Moore today said that h im,.
. Itood that Orchard wanted to get rid of
oer, out ine letter itself was to the ef
fect that he was operating in Alaska and
nopeo. to make a stake. In which event
do wouia take good care of her. Mr.
Moore further testified that he did not
know Orchard much, had only met him
casually, but on being pinned down, he
admitted he had taken Orchard to his
room at Denver. That was Just when
the murder of Steunenberg was being
planned., Moore was a member of the
executive committee.
There has always been a suspicion that
me members or the Inner circle lolned In
Orchard's plan to deceive his wife about
his whereabouts, especially In connection
with the mythical Alaska trip, as they
thought It would serve as the basis of an
alibi If Orchard should get away from
Caldwell and be arrested at some sub
sequent time on suspicion. Orchard him
self made no such claim, but It was In
connection with this effort to make it
ppear that Orchard was In Alaska that
Haywood wrote the letter to Mrs. Or
chard that constitutes such a strong
point against him. The effort has been
to make it appear he had little to do
with Orchard, but that letter showed he
was very close to Orchard and was keep
ing track of him and It has always been
thoueht he had In mind the time when
It might servethe purpose of the Inner
circle to say Orchard was In Alaska at
that time.
Point Made for Prosecution.
The defense brought, out a very Impor
tant point In the cross-examination of
Mrs. Mike Fallon, of Butte, whose former
husband was "Kid" Walters, of Cripple
Creek, a mineowners' detective. She
testified on cross-examination that Lyte
Gregory visited them a number of times
at Cripple Creek about the time of the
troubles and she further said he was a
detective in the employ of the Mine
owners' Association. That was her un
derstanding, she said. j
Mr. Darrow, rn his opening statement,
declared the Federation t had nothing
against Gregory, as he was connected
with the coal companies, and had nothing
against the Federation. He was killed
by Orchard, as alleged by the latter, at
the request of Pettibone, because he had
been serving as a detective for the mine
owners at Idaho Springs at the time of
the trouble there. This Is the second
witness put on by the defense who has
testified Gregory was a detective for the
mineowners.
There was much disappointment when
it was found necessary to take another
long adjournment today, as it was hoped
more evidence would be pushed through.
The defense did not have the originals
of the depositions taken at San Francisco
relative to the Bradley explosion, while
It professed to be embarrassed by the
accidental killing of Frank Schmelier, a
newly-elected member of the executive
committee of the Federation. He was to
be here to testify, and Mr. Darrow said
It would take some time to get witnesses
to take his place to give the testimony
he was expected to furnish. It was felt
. by others that they might as well have
gone ahead with Moyer or Haywood, but
It Is believed they want time In which to
go over the entire case with those men
before putting them on the stand.
HAYWOOD ON STAND MONDAY
Defense Ready to Call Big Guns In
Federation Trial.
BOISE, Idaho, July 5. A beginning of
the end of the Haywood trial was reached
today. Counsel for the defense announced
that with the exception of three or four
witnesses, their case In direct is be
fore the Jury. Charles H. Moyer,
the accused president of the West
ern Federation of Miners, will be called
as a witness on Monday next. He will
be followed by William D. Haywood, the
defendant. Judge Fremont Wood has
asked counsel on both sides to submit
their requests for Instructions to the jury.
He has Informed counsel that he will
consider these requests and will agree
with counsel as to what his Instructions
shall be. In order that the-arguments von
both sides may be limited to what the
lury will be allowed to consider In the
evidence. In adjourning court this after
noon until next Monday morning at 10
o'clock. Judge Wood said that he hoped
the Interval would be utilised by counsel
In preparations that would prevent fur
ther delay and bring the case to as speedy
t close as possible.
It is now expected that rebuttal evl
, flence In behalf of the state will com
. mence on Wednesday, possibly on Tues
day, much depending on the extent of
the cross-examination of Moyer and Hay
wood. Counsel for the defense and pros
ecution after the adjournment this after
noon were willing to admit the possibil
ity of the verdict or disagreement In two
weeks.
stoma uneasiness on the part of the
Jurymen, aa a result of their long con
finement, developed this afternoon. Just
before the adjournment of court & F.
Russell, who occupies the twelfth chair,
turned to the bench and asked if the
Jury would be allowed to exercise during
the two days adjournment, tie com
plained that some members of the Jury
were disinclined to taking walks and that
for this reason the other Jurymen were
unable to take exercise to which they
were accustomed and without which there
was danger of sickness. O. V. Sebern,
Sixth Juryman, addressed the Judge in
support of this statement, and asked that
the Jurors be allowed to take exercise
according to their Inclinations.
Judge Wood and counsel for both sides
agreed to arrange anything within the
law for the improvement of the condi
tions.
A. P. Burns complained that the bailiffs
In charee of the 1urv were too strict and
that a Juryman who exceeded some trivial
rule was summarily called to order. J. A.
Robertson, the good-humored Scotchman
occupying the ninth chair, defended the
bailiffs and said laugmngly:
'Well. 1 don't know abeut its Being
too strict. I know I never had a better
time In my life."
The announcement was received witn
roars of merriment, and Judge Wood,
who seldom joins in any demonstrations,
leaned back in his chair and laughed
heartily.
Wolfrs Letter to Orchard.
The five witnesses on the stand this
morning added support to those who have
preceded them. They were called to
testify concerning conditions existing in
Colorado during the disturbances at Crip
ple Creek and to show that there was no
reason to call out the mllltla. ' Orchara
was further discredited by Owen Barnes,
a miner who lived near the Independence
mine and who, Orchard said, assisted,
him In the making of bombs. Mr. Barnes
said he knew Orchard, Adams ana Jis
terly and others, b"t flatly denied that
he ever planned or discussed any criminal
expedition with Orchard.
.T. Wolff, who swore that ne was iinan-
clal clerk for George A. pettibone tor
mnnv vears and closed up Pettibone s
business after he was arrested, proved
one of the strong witnesses lor me oe
fense In Its widespread contradiction of
Orchard. In his statement on tne stana.
Orchard swore that when he was m Ban
Francisco on the Bradley killing expe
dition, he sent to Pettibone for money,
which he received In a registered letter
containing "five 20 bills. He said the
letter was signed J. Wolff, and the state
Intimated that this was a name under
which Pettibone passed. The witness
today swore that he had sent Orchard no
money, but that he had sent a registered
letter to Orchard as "Jack Dempsey."
addressed to him in San Francisco. This
letter. Wolff swore, contained a Masonic
charm and a union card, which Orchard
had left with Pettibone and for which
it has been testified he wrote after his
arrival In San Francisco.
Haywood's Evidence Big: Feature.
The examination of Haywood early
next week Is looked forward to as one of
the big features of Interest In the case
It Is probable that Haywood will be
closely examined as to his whole life and
that he will be asked In his own defense
to expose everything he can possibly give
out In connection with the affairs of the
Wpntprn Federation of Miners.
Before beginning the examination of
Marlon W. Moore, of McCabe, Aril., a
member of the executive board of the
Federation, Mr. Darrow announced the
accidental death of Frank Schmelser, an
other member of the board on his way
ontlfir and atd it would be nec
essary to secure from other sources the
evidence he was to give.
Mr. Moore said he first met Orohard
in Denver in May, 1904, and that in Sep
tember, 1905, he told Orchard he was going
tn Alnnkn. to orranlze a union at Nome.
The same evening Orchard came to him
and asked if he would mail a letter for
Orchard In Alaska. He continued: "It
was addressed to Mrs. Harry Orchard and
he told me he wanted to get rid of 'that
woman." He said he might come up to
Alaska later himself. I arrived in Nome
August 12. 1905, and two days later I re
membered and mailed the letter.
Orchard Visited "Kid" Waters.
Mrs. Mike Fallon, of Butte, Mont., tes
tified that she was formerly the wife of
"Kid" Waters, a gun-man from Colorado,
who died In 1906. She said Waters did "a
little bit of everything detective work
chiefly." He was employed by the Mine-
owners Association, ana sne naa seen
him with D. JC. Scott and Lyte Gregory.
He carried three guns of all descrip
tions. She saw Orchard at her house, the
first time in March, 1904. Her present hus
band is a member of the Federation.
Owen Barnes, who lost both feet while
mining and has been' a member of the
Federation many years, testinea mat in
1904 he lived In a cabin near the Inde
pendence depot. Orchard came there once
but they had no conversation about mak
ing bombs. He did not help Orchard to
make bombs, never made one himself.
and never committed or planned any act
of violence In that district with Orchard.
The day of the Independence explosion
he was attending the Democratic National
Convention at St. Louis. He drew a rough
sketch of the locality, showing the depot
and where he. Orchard, Bill Easterly,
Steve Adams and Bill Alkman lived, the
entire camp being close around the depot,
Jacob Wolff, Pettibone s clerk, testified
that he worked In Pettlbone's store from
1898 until It was closed, May 1, 1908, by
Pettlbone's arrest. Many Colorado miners
made the store their headquarters, made
purohases and left bundles there. He met
Orchard there, but did not remember
meeting Adams there. One day after Pet
tibone had opened and read a letter he
registered for Pettibone a letter contain
ing a Masonic charm and union card.
This Is alleged by the defense to be the
letter Orchard referred to as containing
money from Pettibone, sent to him at San
Francisco. Mr. Wolff said It was sent to
San Francisco addressed to J. Dempsey.
He Talked Too Much.
Archie Lester Harper, who has recently
been admitted to the Denver bar, testi
fied to being arrested at Victor on the day
following the Independence explosion, the
reason given being that he "had talked
too much in a college debate at
the State University at Boulder. The
question debated, was, 'Resolved, That the
calling of the mllltla in Cripple Creek
was uncalled for and unwarranted.' He
was on the affirmative." Mr. Harper said
he was taken Into custody by two "white-
cappers." Major Naylor ordered his re
lease, but refused to have the whltecap-
pers arrested. He was told his father,
John Harper, manager of the union store
at Victor, had been deported to Canyon
City, and he and a companion walked the
distance of 35 miles to And the father
there with his head cut and bleeding.
John Harper gave his experiences under
Colorado martial law, Mr. Richardson ex
plaining that the purpose of the evidence
was to show an effort to create enmity to
the Federation and thereby provoke dls
tnrbances. The court ruled out the wit
ness' opinion of the purpose of the acts
he related.
G. N. Hooton, a Canyon City miner,
told of his arrest at Victor, and testified
that the first question asked him was
whether he was a member of and intend
ed to support the Western Federation of
Miners. Ha had answered that he was a
member, and on that he was Immediately
"clapped- in Jail."

NO RTTSH ORDERS, SAYS EVANS
Says 'cruise Is Not Significant of
Quarrel With Japan.
TTTj-rtr vnnv July 5. Rear 'Admiral
Robley D. Evans, Commander-in-Chief
of the Atlantic fleet, who will, it is ex
pected, be in command when the great
array of battleships passes through
Magellan Straits for an excursion into
waters of the Pacific, spent some time
at the Brooklyn navy yard today. To
a representative Of the Associated
p,o whom he received aboard, his
flagship, the Connectlcut.Admlral Evans
explained that no rusn wuers o
received and only routine repairs ware
under way.
"There have been no orders to rusn
repairs at the Brooklyn navy yard or
other navy yards," said the Admiral.
The schedule of repairs which I laid
out several months ago is still being
followed. There Is such a shortage of
docks that we are always pushed to
accomplish our work, but there is no
especial rush at this time."
Concerning the trip to tne i-acinc, ne
said:
'I have received no orders for a
crulso. What may be In contempla
tion I, of couise, do not know. It Is
my business only to do whatever the
Government may require."
Admiral Evans attaches no more sig
nificance to the plans for a practice
cruise that will take his great fleet
around the Horn and over a cruise of
14,000 miles than have otier officers
who viewed it as a part of the routine
naval .operations. It was absurd, he
added, to construe the appearance of
this formidable fighting force In the
territorial waters of our west coast as
a demonstration to Impress the friendly
government of Japan.
'It is silly to talk of war with
Japan," he said. "Because some tough
wrecked a Japanese restaurant in San
Francisco, there is no mpre reason for
war witn japan man mere wouia De
for one with China, if a few hoodlums
oh the East Side should stone a Chinese
laundry."

ITS ACT OF WISE STRATEGY
London .Papers Approve Transfer of
Fleet to Pacific.
LONDON, July 5. The transfer of the
American fleet to the Pacific is a sub
ject of tcreat Interest to the British
press. The Post, in an editorial article,
says It regards this move as a most
natural and intelligible outcome of the
new position of the United States as a
world power, the only wonder being
that this decision was not taken be
fore. The paper thinks this- transfer
Is not necessarily connected with the
Japanese trouble and it regards a seri
ous quarrel between Japan and America
in the future as quite out of the question.
"Moreover," the Post continues, "this
Is a clever move in domestic politics.
It will emphasize in the eyes of the
country the enormous distance dividing
the Atlantic and the Pacific Coast and
it will make the American people
anxious to provide money not only
speedily to complete the Panama canal,
but to build another fleet."
jrST TO SHOW THEIR SPEED
Brownson Says That's Only Reason
for Battleships' Cruise.
OTSTER BAY, N. Y., July E. Rear-Admiral
W. H. Brownson, who today
lunched with President Roosevelt, stated
on reaching Oyster Bay that he did not
know what ships would compose the
fleet to go to the Paclfio and that all
he knew of the Intended cruise was what
he had seen In the newspapers.
"The -statement of Secretary Metcalf
and that of Secretary Loeb," he contin
ued, "Indicate that a cruise may be
made somewhere at some time, but that
is all I know of the matter. Should the
cruise be taken to the Pacific, I think Its
object "would be to demonstrate how
quickly the voyage can be made and
for no other purpose."
On leaving Sagamore Hill, the admiral
said the cruising plans for the battleship
rieet were barely mentioned at the Presi
dent's luncheon.

Easy Prey to Torpedoes.
TOKIO, July 5. The report from Wash
ington attributing the proposed sending
of 16 battleships to the Pacific, to Admiral
Deww'i private plan, is grenerally disbe
lieved here by those whose knowledge
and experience entitles their opinion to
some attention. The United, States is not
known to possess naval bases in the Pa
cific adequate for such purposes and the
Impression prevails that the sending of so
large a squadron where sufficient rendez
vous does not exist would simply mean
that the vessels would be an easy prey
to torpedo-boats and destroyers. Should
16 battleships be so employed as to dis
prove this impression, a record-break lnc
naval feat will have to be accomplished.
Coal development Starts.
SCOTT'S MILLS, Or., July 5. (Spe
cial.) The Great Oregon Diamond Coal
Mining & Development Co. has com
menced work on the mines at Scott's
Mills. Preliminary surveys were made
two weeks ago and the location of the
shaft determined upon. It will take about
four months to get the shaft down. Work
will be pushed night and day. AH doubt
as Xo the existence of a large and valu
able bed of coal has been dispelled. The
demand for lumber, both for mining and
building purposes, necessitates the erec
tion of another mill, which will be more
fully equipped and of much larger capac
ity than the one now in operation. Plans
are under way and work will be com
menced in the near future.
A large number of residences and busi
ness buildings have been completed this
year, while many more are under con
struction. Mr. Mitchell," the coal expert, while at
Scott's Mills, said that from the heavy
outcropping of coal, there seems to be
indications that Scott's Mills will be one
of the lading coal districts of the West,
mwi- I .nn-a.Y a- with t1A B S?HPlll-
tural conditions of the country, make the
future look bright for Scott's Mills.

JUDGE SWAYNE IS DEAD
Well Known Through a Recent At
tempt to Impeach Him.
PHILADELPHIA, July 5. Judge
Charles Swayne, of the United States
Court for the Northern district of Flor.
Ida, died at the University of Pennsyl
vania here today, of complicated kidney
trouble.
Judge Swayne's name became familiar
to the public through an attempt to im
peach him for "hlgii crimes and misde
meanors." His trial took place In the
United States Senate toward the close of
the first session of the Fifty-ninth Con
gTftss. It lasted six weeks and was the
first impeachment proceeding In that
body since the trial of Secretary of War
Belknap under the Grant administration.
The specific charges were that Swayne
did not reside in his district, that he
made excessive charges against the Gov
ernment for expenses, that he used his
position to extort favors from railroad
companies and that he sat in a case in
Florida in which his wife was personally
interested. .
The trial resulted in lIs acquittal by a
vote which was almost strictly along
party, lines.
Judge Swayne was born at Guyencourt,
Del., August 10, 1842, and in 1871 waa
graduated from the law department of
the University of Pennsylvania. He was
admitted to the Philadelphia bar shortly
after bis graduation. He moved to Flor
ida in 1SS5 and was defeated as a Re
publican candidate for the Supreme Court
In 1S88. Judge Swayne was very exten
sively tndorsed for Supreme Court Jus
tice In 1S97, after the death of Justice
Field, of California.
Pendleton Plans Improvements.

heart of the city is transformed into a
park. Mayor Fee says that immediate
advantage will be taken of the powers
