BOISEl Idaho, July 29. Charles H. Woyer, president of the "Western Fe.dera jtlon of Miners and co-defendant with jTYllllam D. Haywood, acquitted yesterday W the murder of ex-Governor Steunenberg, jwaa ordered released on $25,000 ball today 'try Judge Wood, who presided at the Hay wood trial. The attorneys for the federa tion expected to have the bond ready for 'filing tonight, but the arrangements had Inert been wholly completed at a late hour lend Moyer resigned himself to another nlght In jail. He will probably be re leased tomorrow and will leave within 24 hours for his home In Denver. No application for ball was made, in the case of George A. Pettlbone, the third of the alleged conspirators, but a motion was made for a speedy trial and his case was ordered set down for Tuesday, October 1. Stronger Case Against Pettlbone. Counsel Intimated today that they, might apply for bonds for Pettlbone later, but It is not believed that the state's at torneys will consent. It has ' been gen erally stated that there Is more In criminating evidence against Pettlbone than any of the others, while It has been generally conceded that the case against Moyer is the weakest of the three. The defense In the Haywood case admitted that there were a number of things for Pettlbone to explain as to his association with Harry Orchard and the sending of money to him, but they said It would, be time enough to deal with these matters when Pettibone himself was placed on trial. Haywood today continued to receive many congratulatory telegrams from all sections of the country. They came from Individuals, from local - unions of the Western Federation of Miners, from all classes of labor unions and frem various Socialist organizations and leaders. Aside from the personal congratulations of the senders the messages have nearly all ex pressed the sentiment that "labor has triumphed over the oppressive measures of capital." Haywood spent the day at the cottage occupied by his family and received many 'callers. He expects to leave for Denver on Thursday. Mrs. Pettlbone Breaks Down. The matter of releasing Moyer on ball And fixing the time of Pettibone's trial tcame up before Judge Wood at 10 o'clock jthls morning, but was postponed until 2 P. M. to allow further conferences be tween counsel for the defense and for the (prosecution. Strenuous efforts were made 'to secure the consent of the state's at torneys to the release of Pettlbone, but wlthout avail. The big courtroom with Its 'empty Jury-box and benches appeared far different from the closing days of the jtrlal, when hundreds of people were jturned away from every session. Moyer and Pettlbone were brought into court . jet 2 o'clock. The latter's wife was present and broke down and cried when the order was made releasing Moyer and jholdlng her husband. It was said to jnlght that Pettlbone may be taken back jto the Canyon County Jail at Caldwell untll the time for his trial arrives. The lease and the prisoners were brought to Boise six months ago on a change of Jvenue from Canyon to Ada County. Mr. Darrow, of Chicago, made the for mal application for Moyer' s release, and mo word of objection was interpolated by Senator Borah, representing the state. When it came to fixing the amount, Mr. Borah named $25,000. "That Is reasonable and suits us," said Mr. Darrow. Judge Wood said he would personally Approve the bond and would make it continuing, so Moyer could remain at his home In Colorado until wanted. , Butte Union to Give Bail. As to Pettlbone, Mr. Darrow urged that the earliest possible date be fixed for his trial. The next term of court begins September 4. and Judge Wood said he would like to clear the calendar as far as possible before going Into an extended trial. October 1 was then set as a date agreeable to all parties. Bond for Moyer Is to be given in a unique way. suggested by Peter Breen, of Butte, Mont., who has been on the defense. Butte Local, of the Western Federation of Miners, is the richest In the organization and. Mr. Breen said, carries a deposit of from $100,000 to $140, 000 constantly in the bank. Arrangements were made by wire today by Mr. Breen to have the Butte Union make a $25,000 draft to the First National Bank ' of Boise. Some officer of the bank will sign the ball bond as surety. A telegram to Mr. Breen tonight said the arrangements at Butte had been completed. "We were offered personal bond in sev eral times the amount desired here In MOYER Boise," said Mr. Breen tonight, "but we preferred not to Impose upon any of our friends to that extent until we had heard from Butte Union, which has such a large surplus and was anxious for the honor of showing its allegiance and con fidence in the president of the Federa tion." All Acquiesce in Verdict. Discussison of the verdict in the Hay wood case was widespread today, the concensus of opinion being that the Jury had done its duty as it saw it and should not be criticized. Editorial comment of the local papers Is to this effect, the Dally Statesman saying: The Statesman, in common with the great mass of the people, regrets that the trial of William D. Haywood for the murder of ex Governor Steunenberg resulted as it dla. The verdict came as a great surprise, as It had not been supposed such a conclusion would be reached; even the defense, accord ing to the best information obtainable, hoping for nothing more than a hung Jury. But the case has been decided by an Idaho Jury under the facts as they found them and the law as laid down by the court, and It Is the duty of all, as in all cases fairly - .......... !pn,.'.HiHS)('i.wj'-W-M4jiv?.V.'.".;..-.'

Let Trial Be Forgotten. The, Evening Capital News says: There was bound to be keen disappoint ment, whatever the verdict. But the Jury which tried the. case was one whose hon esty, integrity, ability and good citizenship no one doubted, and now that they have expressed themselves It will come with as little grace on the part of those whose minds were made up to the contrary verdict to complain of their decision as it would for those who are now pleased to have de nounced the verdict had it been the other way. There Is but one thing to do, and this Is to let the Haywood case die from the publio mind as Quietly as possible. In the mtnds of some it will linger as a dream a terri ble nightmare in body politic of the state. In the minds of others it must remain as a living He to the .arguments and doctrines of that political school which teaches the doctrine of discontent. The law of Idaho will always be found supreme, and though the murder of Frank Steunenberg is as yet unavenged, life and property within the boundaries of the state will be found as safe and as sacred as else where on the face of the globe, and the State of Idaho will always be found willing and able to act with fairness and Impartial ity, the law-abiding will be amply protected, and the violators of law will be suitably punished. Two Jurors Believe Him Guilty. The Jurors in the case continued pub licly to discuss the part they played in arriving' at a cerdictu Samuel D. Gil man, the last man to vote for acquittal, said: There has been published one statement that I want to correct. One of the Jurors is quoted as saying that the Jury had to spend a long, disagreeable and tiresome night in order to convince two Jurors that the defendant was not guilty. I want to say that they never did convince, us. X be lieve that he was guilty, and Z still believe he is guilty, and I want the world to know It. I simply acquiesced In the verdlot of acquittal because I felt that I could not do otherwise after I found the entire eleven other jurors consented to the verdict, but not because I was convinced that it was right. Kindly make the correction for mo. A. P. Burns. Juror No. 11, said: I was firmly convinced when we left the courtroom that the first ballot would show a vote for conviction. I still retain the belief that Haywood was guilty, and only changed my vote because it struck me that. If the evidence presented left eight men unconvinced of the guilt of the defendant. It would be impossible to get 12 men In another trial, and that It would be better to settle the question by acquiescing in their decision. The decision of the state to continue the prosecution of the men now under arrest, and the statement that Jack Slmpkins, fugitive from Justice, is almost within the reach of the law and may be arrested at any time, came as- a surprise to the counsel for the defense, who con fidently -Expected that Moyer and Pettl bone would be released. STOP FEAST OF L ROTAL INSURANCE COMPANY OFFERS TO BUY GERMAN. Alms to Rescue Assets) From Ra pacious Lawyers and Give Them to San Francisco Policyholders. CHICAGO. July 29. Special.) The Royal, which re-Insured the German of Freeport, an Insurance company which failed after the San FTancisco disaster, has offered to end the costly receiver ship, take over all the assets, paying therefor tl.850,000 In cash. This would permit of an immediate payment of a 60 per cent dividend to the San Fran cisco claimants and a further payment of 3 per cent some time after December. Twenty-four firms of lawyers are now eating up the assets very rapidly and, if the policyholders are to get anything at all from the wreck, action must be speedy. The aim of the Royal Is to close all litigation immediately which, otherwise, will continue for years, or as long as there Is a penny to be scrambled for, the claimants getting . nothing in th and. . 1 SYMPATHIZERS OF HAYWOOD REJOICE Hold Street Parade and Mass Meeting. CROWD ASSEMBLES ON PLAZA Rabid Remarks of Speakers Recall Coxey Army Days. NO LABOR LEADERS THERE Red Badge Socialists Make Up Bulk of Audience No Hearty Applause for Condemnation , of the President and Government. Portland Socialists expressed their Joy last night at the release of W. D. Haywood, secretary and treasurer of the "Western Federation of Miners, by a parade and demonstration in the Plaza blocks. Several hundred men were In the parade, which formed on Burnslde street and marched down Sec ond and Third streets to the Plaza. A band at the head of the column played the "Marseillaise" and men in the line of march shouted their approval of the action of the Boise Jury. Banners bear ing somewhat radical legends were carried by the paraders. Some of those in the parade an nounced themselves in favor of run ning "Bill" Haywood for President. Banners announced that the marchers are part of the "unwhlpped mob," and that as yet no one had called Harry Orchard an "undesirable citizen." There were nearly 2000 people around the speaker's stand. Coxey Army Days Recalled. Not since the days of the Coxey Army, 13 years ago, has as - large gathering assembled on the Plaza blocks to be harangued by fiery speakers. The Coxey Army was a col lection of men who set out from vari ous parts of the United States to Wash ington, D. C. to lay before the National Government their protest against the rule of the Nation, as they alleged, by the capitalistic class. The Plaza at that time was the center of numerous men, who marched to it from various parts of the city. It was given over to them entirely, and for some time after the spot was one of the city's eyesores, owing to the grass having been trodden out, leaving an abundance of mud and rubbish. In the reaction against this use of the Plaza, the city authorities Improved its appearance by planting grass and building a fence around the block and prohibiting all future gatherings of this sort. In the last three of four years political meetings have been permitted on the block. Last night's meeting was probably the larg est ever held on the Plaza, Beginning with The Oregonlan, every newspaper in Portland was declared to ONE OF THE be unfair to the workingman. The Labor Press, the organ of the labor unions, was said to be "run by freaks and grafters." At last night's demonstration, labor leaders were conspicuous by their ab sence. Socialists wearing red badges made up the audience that listened to the apostles of discontent and discord that harangued the crowd. The night was warm and the listeners melted away from the fervid orators who had their coats off and swung their arms ' over much. Many of the usual patrons of the greensward regretted that the usual evening quiet under the trees had been disturbed by so much disquieting talk. Perhaps It was because of the warm night that there was no very hearty re sponse to the attacks upon the President, the Government and all else that came under the condemnatory notice of the speakers. The speeches were decidedly fiery and revolutionary. The spell binders declared there Is an Irrepressible conflict between capital and labor in this country and that the only hope of the working class is by thorough organization and a fight to the finish. Capitalists as a class were denounced as being capable of any crime. President Roosevelt, the Supreme Court, the State Courts, state officials of Colorado and Idaho, the newspapers, and . in fact almost everybody that the speakers could think of with the excep tion of the working man, were raked fore and aft. Would Tear Down Soldiers' Statue. Just to show how little patrlptio the orowd was last night, a speaker said the statue to the dead of the Oregon regiment in the. Philippines, which stood Just in front of the crowd, should be torn down. Then another of the "spie lers" said the working men have too much sense to take up arms if the country Is embroiled In a war with Japan. "Capitalists" again, were de clared to be behind this war talk. To cap the climax and make the gath ering altogether anarchistic and un American, G. "W Speed, of San Francisco, organizer for the Industrial Workers of the World, declared his pride in the fact that he took part In a demonstration in honor of the anarchists hanged In Chi cago In 1S86. "Capitalists are criminals," he said. "Capitalists murdered four men in Chicago in 1886 and I am glad that I lived In that day to take part In a demonstration In their honor." "The capitalistio class Is a slimy lot of criminals," continued Mr. Speed. "I have seen them tear up railroad tracks to cause wrecks so they could blame the work on strikers. They cannot crush us never! We defy them when ever they attempt to crush the working class. Funston and "Unwhlpped Mob." "We know that in San Francisco that miserable thing called General Funston said he would not bring in troops because of that "unwhlpped mob.' Orchard or Mc Farland have not yet been proclaimed un desirable, but you work'xig men, who make the country what it Is, you are un desirable citizens. "Why should 1 per cent of the popula tion of this country control 90 per cent of its wealth? They are thieves and rob bers. They put sand In your sugar and chalk in your milk. That is the class you are expected to look up to. "Moyer, Haywood and Pettlbone stand for the abolition of that pirate crew that is managing the ship of state. Captain Kidd was not in it with them. This trial at Boise is not one for murder, but is an attack on labor organization and an at tempt to crush it. We should solidify our forces. We have but one enemy and that is our breadmaster. That man who lives off the products of your labor is a robber. You produce the wealth of the country. How much of it have you got? "The capitalistic class is willing anS will commit any crimes to continue its power. We have got to organize to pre vent the murder of tne working class. We (Concluded on Page 2.) MANY VICTIMS OF CAPITALISTIC SLAVERY CAPTAINS FORCED TO GREAT SPEED Wrecks Due to Owners' Demands on Officers. MUST KEEP UP TO SCHEDULE Agerup's Damaging Evidence About Columbia. TAKE RISKS IN THICK FOGS Passenger Declares Charges Against Hawse False He Did Not Pro cure Whisky and Voluntar ily Gave Woman Coat. SAN FRANCISCO, July 29.-The respon slbtlity of the companies which, by Iron clad schedules, compel their masters of ships to go at a speed their own con sciences tell them is unsafe, was the fea ture of the Columbia wreck testimony, taken before Captain Bermlngham to day. Second Officer Agerup's testimony established more clearly than had been done before the fact that captains are compelled to run their ships at full speed along a dangerous coast in foggy weather in a course navigated by many vessels. "Is it the usual practice on the Coast to go at full speed?" asked Captain Ber mlngham. "The captain always slowed up when he heard a steamer ahead," was the answer. Only Slow Up In Bad Weather. A question as to whether it was neces sary to go at full speed In order to make the schedule elicited the statement that there was a certain time allowed for the trips of the Coast steamships and it w necessary to arrive at a certain hour to get in on time and avoid delay. "Does the ship never slow up unless there is a steamer ahead?" "I can't recollect that we ever did. It might be once . in a great while, per haps, especially in very bad weather," said Mr. Agerup. George A. Knight, counsel for the com pany, then took the witness- and after getting the statement from Agerup that he had been with Captain Doran seven years, asked him: "Did you ever hear the captain say that you must push the steamer ahead at any cost?'' "No, sir," said the witness. "Did you ever hear him say that he must make a certain timer' "No, sir." Although Knight succeeded in establish lrig the fact that the captain never gave the order mentioned, he made no effort to shake the testimony that dangerous runs were made to keep the vessel -on its schedule, and that the moral suasion of the company was the reason for them. Survivor Defends Hawse. The first witness today was Miss Alica Osterburg, who was a passenger on the steamer Columbia at the time of the col lision. Miss Osterburg stated that the behavior of Third Officer Hawse, of the Columbia, was gentlemanly through the disaster. According to her testimony, in dications are that the charge against Hawse Is one of mistaken identity. Miss Osterburg told the following story: "After I heard the crash I opened the door of my stateroom and ran across the deck directly to where lifeboat No. 9 was tied. I got Into the boat, but before It was untied the Columbia sank and I was thrown into the water. Luckily, as soon as I heard the crash I put on a life preserver and, by. swimming, kept afloat for some time. I then signalled to a life boat and I was taken on board. Some man I did not know handed me his coat. Officer Hawse was on board this boat." Denies All the Charges. During his testimony Mr. McCloud, who is the attorney for the witness as well as for Officer Hawse, brought out the fact that Miss Osterburg was the first woman Governor Joseph W. Folk, of Mis souri, Who Removes Kansas City Police Commissioner In Effort to Stop Graftlns. in the boat, and therefore she is compe tent to tell whether Hawse's actions were gentlemanly. The witness stated that the charge that he procured some whisky for himself is without foundation and that the whisky was given to a woman who was on board. She denied the story that Hawse was forced to give up his coat to a woman passenger and declared he did so voluntarily. Miss Osterburg also de nied that Hawse struck a passenger. SEES WRECKAGE OF COLUMBIA 6chooner Captain Reports Lifeboats on Piece of Hurricane Deck. SAN FRANCISCO, July 29. Captain Johnson, of the steam-schooner New port, which arrived here today from Eureka, reported that yesterday, while his vessel was a few miles off Point Arena on the Mendocino Coast, he passed pieces of wreckage of the ill fated steamer Columbia. A part of the hurricane deck measuring about 80 by 29 feel, said Captain Johnson, was seen floating with two lifeboats on It. What appeared to be the bridge of toe vessel was also plainly discerned from the Newport. Captain Johnson also reported that he passed through a great deal of wreckage and lumber, the latter, no doubt, being a part of the San Pedro's deck load. E BRAIN SUDDENLY UNHINGED BY STORM OF CRITICISM. After Reading Newspaper Criti cisms, Columbia's Officer Raves Like Wild Beast in Pain. SAN FRANCISCO, July 29. Special.) The brain of Robert Hawse, third officer of the loet steamer Columbia, succumbed tonight to the abuse, ridicule and con tempt which has been heaped upon him ever since the investigation of the disaster has been in progress. Holding the news paper articles containing criticism of his actions subsequent to the crash in his bands, a brain fiber snapped and he was mad. The ignominy heaped upon him was more than he could bear. After brood ing for several days over the charges which had been made against him, his Intellect lost that keen adjustment that nature provides between thought (and act, and bis mind reeled off into in sanity. Hawse had spent the evening at his rooms, 188 Fair Oaks street, Second Offi cer Richard Agerup was with him. Hawse had spent an hour or more reading the censures which had been printed against him. With a cry like a wild animal he clenched the clippings in his hands and leaped to his feet. Agerup looked at him and Hawse looked at his friend, but did not see him. His eyes were glazed. The police were called and Hawse was taken to th detention ward at the Cen tral Emergency Hospital. FILIPINOS CARE NOTHING Little ' Interest in Election on Eve of Great Day. MANILA, July . 29. Unusual quiet reigns through the island on the eve of the general election. Mass meetings were held in Manila Sunday by all par ties, but aroused little enthusiasm. The native papers are exhorting the people to go to the polls. Election day will be declared a publio holiday. The political situation is unchanged and all parties are confident that there will be renewed activity among the leaders in the last days of the cam paign, but so tar little Interest has been evinced by the people. The cam paign is being conducted on strictly modern methods.

CINCINNATI, O., July 29. That it is impossible for him under present condi tions to favor the Presidential candidacy of Secretary of War Taft, Is the state ment of United States Senator Foraker in a letter given out here today.
