Lawyers Fight It Out.
Much amusement was caused by a
wordy engagement between E. V. Rich
ardson and B. M. Sabine, an attorney
of Jdnho Springs, Colo. Mr. Sabine was
engnged in the prosecution, ot a. num
ber of cases charging 14 members or
the Western Federation of Miners with
crime and conspiracy during the labor
troubles of '1903. Mr. Richardson was
the defending counsel In these cases.
There was a sharp exchange between
these two, but enough' of good-humored
badinagu to keep the" courtroom in a
ripple of laughter lor half an hour.
Mr. Sabine intimated his willingness to
tell many things that Mr. Richardson
appeared anxious to keep out of tha
records, and It kept Haywood's counsel
busy heading the witness away from
dangerous ground. Mr. Sabine ad
mitted that Mr. Richardson had beaten
him end had cleared his clients, but ho
managed to got before the jury his
opinion that the defendants were guilty,
notwithstanding a verdict of the jury
to the contrary.
Attempt to Discredit Dewey.
When court opened. Judge Wood sus
tained the objection of the defense to ad
mission as evidence of records showing
John D. Elliott's committal to the in
sane asylum, as the state's counsel ap
parently knew the fact at the time the
witness appeared and did not then object.
William Dewey was recalled to further
Identify XV. F. Davis as the man who
handed out guns and ammunition to the
mob which blew up the Bunker Hill &
Sullivan mill. In reply to Mr. Richard
son, he denied that Davis had allowed
him to go in debt $300 at the union store
at Cripple Creek and that, when Davis
denied him further credit, he left the
union. He admitted owing the union $20
to $25, but denied he had ever been re
fusd credit. He also denied having
' said, after testifying on Saturday, that
he knew the names of at least 200 mem
bers of the Bunker Hill & Sullivan mill,
but that he would be if he
would tell that lawyer fellow. ,
Lawrence Guibbinl, the San. Francisco
grocer, who testified in regard to the
Bradley explosion, and his wife, both
testified denying that they had served
Mr. Rellly with a drink the morning of
the explosion.
Cigar Won't Light Gag.
The state attempted to examine Charles
Wayne, Steunenberg's former neighbor,
as to the position In which the latter's
body was found, for the purpose of show
ing similarity of the effects of the
Bradley and Steunenberg explosions, but
the evidence was ruled out as not proper
rebuttal.
Mr. Lansen swore positively that gas
would not ignite from the glow of a
lighted cigar, flame temperature being
necessary: In order to explode, gas in a
room would be so dense as surely to be.
detected by smell. Under cross-examination
he said there was no rule against
smoking at the Boise gas works because
the gas was confined, but he would not
allow smoking if It were not confined.
The only way a cigar would Ignite gas
was for the smoker to puff violently
enough to fan the wrapper into a name
and even then the wrapper must be un
usually dry.
Orchard's Uncle Crazy Suicide.
Harry Orchard was then called and
entered preceded and followed by a
deputy, but not accompanied by gun men.
"Were you ever known as or called
Shorty' at any stage of your career?"
asked Mr. Hawley.
"No, sir."
Pat Moran, the Cheyenne saloon
keeper, testified that the Nevilles came
to his saloon with a man called
"Shorty," whom he supposed to be Or
chard. Orchard denied that he ever Introduced
Mr. Grantias, the Pinkerton man. to Max
Mftlich or Joe Mehliet or that Mr. Rid--dell,
the Pinkerton man, introduced him
to Joe Barnes.
The cross-examination by the defense
wns devoted to an inquiry into the fam
lly history of the famous criminal.
"Do you know Patrick McKinney?"
asked Mr. Richardson.
"No." '
"Wasn't your grandfather, named Pat
rick McKinney?
"His namewas McKinney thatts all I
know."
"He was insane, wasn't he?"
.- "I don't know." r
. "He may have been and you could not
recall it?"
"I don't know. I don't remember him
I think he died before I was born."
"And didn't he hang himself?"
. "1 don't know'
, "Well, didn't you have an uncle who
.went Insane and imagined he had com
mitted a crime and hanged himself?
"I never had an uncle who Imagined
he committed a crime, but I did have
one who hanged himself. He had been
demented a year and a half. His name
was Peter McKinney a son of my
grandfather on my mother's side.
"Were you ever arrested for arson
and hurglary in Butte?"
"In Butte?" queried Orchard, pen
sively, as if to be sure of the location
and not the crime.
"Yes." ' "
''No, sir; ,1 never was arrested in
Butte.'"
Orchard denied that he had ever told
a man named Brokaw that he had been
in the employ of the Pinkerton De
tective Agency for five years.
"On tho witness stand you said, Mr.
Orchard, you knew nothing about a so
called 'inner circle' of the Western Fed
eration of Miners, and yet In the first
installment -of your story which has
appeared In a magazine you devote a
paragraph to the inner circle. How Is
tnat?" An objection from the state was
quickly sustained by Judge Wood. "We
are not going into that matter," re-,
marked the court.
Orchard here left the stand. . Counsel
for the state said he might be. recalled
once more later on in the case.
Walter Bynum, a plumber of Denver,
Colo., testified that the saw Pat Moran
in Denver In June, 1904. Orchard in his
tory said he sent Moran to Denver to
get JoflO from the Federation. Moran
denied that he had gone to Denver in
June for any purpose. Bynum said, he
knew Moran well and could not be mis
taken. Why Gregory Was Killed.
' Mr. Sabin was next on the stand. He
said he knew Detective " Lyte Gregory,
who was killed by Orchard. Gregory had
been engaged by the prosecution to secure
evidence In the case of conspiracy growing
out of an attack on the Sun & Moon
mine. The defendants were 14 members
of the Western Federation of Miners, in
cluding D. C. Copley, a witness for the
defense in the present ease. The de
fense has maintained that Gregory had
nothing to do with anything in which
1he Federation was interested. On cross
examination Mr. Sabln and Mr. Richard
son got into an altercation as to whether
or not there had beeu a discussion among
the citizens to the effect that the detec
tives employed by the prosecution had not
earned their money. Mr.' Hawley chimed
In and Jude Wood., after listening to a
running tire of questions and answers
among the attorneys, caused a wave of
laughter by announcing in a loud voice:
"One witness at a time. If you please,
gentlemen."
Mr. Richardson and witness were at
hammer-and-tongs from the yery
first.
"Those men were all given a verdict
of not guilty, weren't they?"
"That's true; no one has ever denied
you the glory ot that victory," replied
Mr. Sabin.
"I'm not asking for glory, I'm asking
for facts," said Mr. Richardson.
"Well, the facts as I saw them were
that those men, every one of them,
were guilty."
Mr. Richardson wanted to' have this
last answer stricken out, but the mo
tion was not granted.
Insists Guilty Were Acquitted.
Mr. Richardson drew out the fact
that at the time of the Sun & Moon ex
plosion Mr. Sabin and 80 other mem
bers of the Citizens' Alliance were
placed under bonds to keep the peace.
The witness denied that this was the
reason the federation had been prose
cuted. "But those cases were all tried by
special prosecutors and the District
Attorney had nothing to do with
them?" .
"Yes; but it was because the Dis
trict Attorney was what you called
him at the trial a nonenity."
Mr. Sabin said he was paid some
money tor his services at tha trials by
the Sun & Moon Mining Company.
In the re-direct examination Mr.
Hawley began to question the witness
as to the reason for organizing the
Citizens' Alliance upon which the de
fense had laid much stress. He had
gone along for some time.when finally
the defense objected on the ground of
immateriality.
"We think it's immaterial, too," de
clared Mr. Hawley, "and we didn't go
into it until the defense did."
"The court thinks it is immaterial,"
said Judge Wood, "and the objection is
sustained."
The witness could not recall any
criminal act In the Idaho Springs dis
trict prior to the summoning of De
tectives Gregory and Baird.
Scott Proves an Alibi.
D. C. Scott, former special agent of
the Florence & Cripple Creek Railroad,
was called to contradict the testimony
of Aller, who testified that he saw
Harry Orchard in Mr. Scott's office in
the depot at Cripple Creek in April, 1904.
Mr. Scott said he left the employ of
the company the last of March, 1904,
and gave up his office in the depot at
that time. . He re-entered the service
In August. 1904, but did not occupy his
former office in the depot until Oc
tober. He declared he' had not seen
Aller during the time he was out of the
employ of the railroad. Cross-examined
by Mr. Darrow, Mr. Scott said his po
sition was not -that of a detective, al
though some of- the duties were similar
to those of such officers. He said he
was well acquainted at Pinkerton
headquarters.
Mr. Hawley continued the examination
of Mr. Scott In re-direct, and in the face
of objections by the defense brought out
conversations between Orchard and Mr.
Scott. The witness said that when
Orchard came to see him for the first
time he introduced himself as a brother
Mason. Mr. Scott told him to go ahead
and tell his story. Orchard said that he
and "some of the Bull Hill boys" were
going to wreck a train, that they had"
tried It once and would do it again that
night. Mr. Scott told him that the sec
ond attempt had already been made. In
this conversation Orchard Implicated
Parker and Davis as having been en
gaged in the plans to wreck the train.
The charge of the defense is that Mr.
Scott, with K. C. Sterling, drew the
spikes and that Orchard was engaged
by them to commit many outrages, and
lay them to the door of the Western
Federation of Miners.
Warning Xotes on Door. ,
Mrs. Lloyd Baker, now of Chicago, but
formerly proprietress of the Miles Hotel
In Denver, corroborated Mr. Scott as to
his being a guest at the hotel April 26,
1S04, and for some time thereafter. The
hotel register and cash books were in
troduced in evidence. On cross-examination
Mrs. Baker said she had special
reasons for. remembering Mr. Scott per
sonally. Mr. Richardson . did not ask
what the particular .reasons were, but
Mf Hawley did on re-direct. Mr. Rich
ardson objected. -"We
haven't asked," he Insisted.
The objection was overruled, and Mrs,
Baker said:
"Mr. 'Scott had not been there long
when some one bejian to pin notes on
his door, and we were afraid something
was going to happen in the hotel. We
wished he would give up his room.
The witness was not allowed to state
the contents of the notes.
J. J. Cogan, who was chief clerk of the
Florence & Cripple Creek railroad In
1904, said he saw Mr. Scott In Denver
several times a week during April, May
and June, 1904. He also introduced the
company's payroll, which showed Mr.
Scott was not In the employ of the com
pany after March 31, 1904, until Septem
ber of the same year. Mr. Cogan said
that during the time Mr. Scott was un
employed he had no right to use any
of f Ice in the depot building.
James B. Mlddaugh, at present the
chief trainmaster of the Chicago Belt
railway, and formerly trainmaster of the
Florence & Cripple Creek railroad, said
he did not see Mr. Scott in Cripple Creek
during April, May, June and July of
19(14.

Following Mr. Fairbanks, short
speeches were made by Governor Cham
berlain, Senator Mulkey and Congress
man Ellis, when an Informal reception
was held and the public was given an op
portunity of making the personal ac
quaintance of their distinguished guest.
At 6:30 this evening a special train
bearing Vice-President Fairbanks and
party left for Seaside where a banquet
was held.
Breakfasts With Section Foreman.
Through some misunderstanding re
garding the arrangements, Vice-President
Fairbanks on coming from Seattle this
morning got off the Northern Pacific
train at Goble, while the committee that
had gone to meet him was waiting in
Portland for his arrival there. As Mr.
Fairbanks and his secretary were en
deavoring to while away the tedious wait
at Goble, the former was recognized by
I. H. Bross, tha section foreman, who in
vited them to Join him at breakfast in
his cottage near the railway track. ' The
Invitation was accepted and Mr. Fair
banks says he was soon enjoying a
steaming hot meal that was one of the
best he had tasted in a long time. The
meal ended, the- Vice-President took a
seat upon a baggage truck near the de
pot afia entertained the workmen about
the yards until his train arrived.-
BANQUET IS GREAT SUCCESS
Winds Up at 2 A. M. With Singing
"He's a Jolly Good Fellow."
SEASIDE, Or., July 18. (Special.)
Vice-President Charles Warren Fair
banks was given a royal reception
upon his arrival at Seaside last night
for the banquet tendered him by the
Astoria Chamber of Commerce. The
special train was met at the depot by
3000 people from Seaside and neighbor
ing settlements, and the Vice-President's
party wag greeted by a hearty
round of cheers upon alighting In the
depot yards.
The Oregon Infantry was lined up as
an honorary escort, and the regi
mental band played "Hall to the Chief."
The party was driven at once to the
Moore Hotel, where an Informal re
ception was held preliminary to the
banquet. Mr. Fairbanks gave a brief
address to .those assembled about the
hotel.
The banquet 'which followed proved
a brilliant success. Prominent citi
zens from all over thi state, and dis
tinguished soldiers and naval officers,
were present. The matters of com
mercial import figured little in the ad
dressers of the evening. National prob
lems were discussed, and the spirit of
patriotism pervaded the hour of speech-
making that closed the spread. Every
patriotic utterance was cheered to the
echo.
The Vice-President's party reached
Seaside a few" minutes before 8 P. M.
The .informal reception occupied an
hour, the banquet beginning at 9
o'clock. Not until an early hour this
morning did the affair come to an end,
and then It was amid the singing of
"He's a Jolly Good Fellow," as Mr.
Fairbanks left the banqueting room.
Find Fairbanks Warmhearted.
The Vice-President had convinced
hose nresent that In the words of
Senator Fulton, he was not In the cold-
storage business and had nothing in
common with refrigerators.
. The affair was a brlliant success from
every standpoint Tne dining hall at
the Moore Hotel was decorated elabor
ately and with rare tast. Festoons of
greens, great bouquets of flowers and
quaint coils of ropes set oft witn lire
preservers, added a picturesque touch
to the place. The menu was tempting
including delicacies of the season and
masterpieces of. culinary art. It was
11 . o'clock before the repast was
finished, and then Sentor Fulton arose
as toastmaster and Introduced the guest
of the evening in a glowing tribute to
the Vice-President. Telling of his ex
periences when he first went to thp
United States Senate, the speaker told
of the advice and material assistance
ho had received from the Vlce-Presi
dent, who was then one of the senior
Senators.
"No warmer heart beats than that
which beats beneath the breast of
Charles Warren Fairbanks," said Sena
tor Fulton. "The impression that he
is in the refrigerator business la erron
eous. He is warm-hearted, loving and
generous as all the young Senators at
Washington have cause to know. He
represents the highest , standard of
citizenship."
As the distinguished guest arose he
was met with applause that continued
for more than five minutes. Then the as
semblage insisted on drinking his
health before permitting him to pro
ceed. Responding to the toast assigned
blm, "The United States," he spoke in
an eloquent manner of what the coun
try stands for, first- paying his re
spects to Senator Fulton,, whom ho said
started at the very bottom m the
United States Senate a few years ago,
and has arisen to a place among the
leaders .of de-bate of that great insti
tution. Pays Compliment to Astoria. .
"When Senator Fulton assigns me
to spe-k of the United States, he gives
mo a great subject," said the speaker.
"There is no greater subject in all this .
World. The United States is the best
government ever - instituted by the
genius of man since the stars first
sang together. Not long ago a dis
tinguished visitor to our land said to
me as he viewed some of our great
battleships in New York, that this is
indeed a great country, with a navy
that has proved itself able to deal with
all exigencies, and a splendid army
to spring from the walks of peace
at the beck of duty. I said to him
that the strength of our country does
not Ho in our navy, great as it is, nor
in our army. Our real strength-lies in
the virtue, independence, character and
patriotism of our 85.300,000 of people."
Continuing, Mr. Fairbanks compli
mented the Astoria Chamber of Com
merce upon its aggressive policies, and
said that in advancing the interests of
a community such an organization was
advancing the welfare of. the Nation
at large.
Governor Chamberlain was intro
duced as tha second speaker, and, in
responding to the toast, "Oregon," the
Governor did not deal with tha com
mercial and Industrial aspects of his
subject, but with the worth of her peo
ple as American citizens and of- their
patriotism. He referred to the possi
bility of war with Japan and declared
that Oregon will be found ready to do
her part in supplying the sinews of
war.
Governor Chamberlain Talks. .
"When the Nation needs men, Ore
gon can be counted upon," said Gov
ernor Chamberlain. "We will be found
ready at all times. No people are more
loyal lor more patriotio than ours.
Whether it be in liberating the op
pressed Cuban, or helping out the lit
tle people of thePhlllppines, or help
ing to lick the little Japs, we will be
in the front rank. If in the future the
invader should come to the soil of the
Pacific Coast we will be ready to meet
that invader."
George H. Williams, Introduced by
Senator Fulton as ."Our Greatest Citi
zen," amid prolonged applause, spoke on
the pioneers, paying pretty tributes to
the men who blazed the way westward
for civilization.
As It was after midnight Speakers who
followed were limited to five minutes
each.
Senator Gearln responded to the toast
"The United States Senate;" Tom Rich
ardson, "The Upbuilding of Cities;" W.
C. Smith,--"The Columbia Basin;" John
F. Carroll, "The Western Press;"
Colonel L. H. Walker, 'The United States

' Breaks Up at 2 o'clock.
It was well along toward 2 A. M. be
fore the end of the function drew on,'
but the time passed so quickly that the
lateness of the hour was the cause of
general surprise when It became known.
The guests were seated at two long
tables in the dining hall. The Vice-Pres
ident and guests of honor sat at a table
placed across the north end of the hall
at right angles with the two main tables.
Judge Williams sat. at the right of the

FRED D. WHITING.
A REMARKABLE LETTER
St. Louts, June 25, 1907.
Messrs. "Wertheimer-Swarts Shoe Co.,
St. Louis, Mo.
My Dear Sirs:
I recently sold out all of my Arkansas
interests and after July 1, I will be down
in Tennessee as a general salesman for
Ely & Walker Dry Goods Co., but before
I go I want to secure myself against
another attack of the King of all Diseases
rheumatism, and I believe I can do this
by wearing another pair of Dr. John
Wilson Gibbs' "ELECTTUCTTRA" shoes.
About one year ago, I was considered
by friends and several physloans, a hope
less victim of rheumatism. - I was re
duced In flesh more than one-third and
my nervous system was a complete wreck.
I spent about three months at Hot
Springs, Ark., and eight weeks at Marlin
Hot Wells, Tex., taking in all 116 hot
vapor baths; I also spent eight weeks at
Mineral Wells, Tex., drinking from 16 to
3 pints of the celebrated "Crazy Well"
water.' I returned from there to Little
Rock, Ark., and under one of the most
eminent physicians in the country, I took
a course of Goatlymph. After all of this
I was. able to walk without my crutches
but was very weak and suffered quite a'
good deal with my rheumatism.
One of your representatives, Mr. Jesse
Prewltt, who is, quite a warm friend of
mine, insisted upon my trying a pair of
Dr. John Wilson Gibbs' "ELECTRICURA"
shoes. I was skeptical at first for I had
had submitted to me by letter, 'phone,
telegraph, and through the intervention
of friends, several thousands of "sure
cures" for rheumatism, and I had sworn
off ever trying anything else, that was to
take or rub, but as Mr. Prewltt assured
me that If these shoes did not give sat
isfactory wear aside from their curative
powers, he would pay for them. I con
sented to try a pair. I got well and don't
know whether the shoes cured me or not,
but I haven't a sign of rheumatism and
have gained back my lost strength and
flesh, and I think so well of the shoes
that I intend to wear them as long as I
can get them.
Anybody who wants to know what I
think about "ELECTRICURA" shoes, you
may respectfully refer them to me, and I
will take pleasure in stating what they
have done for me.
Will you please let me know where I
