Haywood Under Examination

TRIAL'S END IS IN SIGHT
Haywood Develops Peculiar
Witness Traits,
; r
CONFIRMS THEN -DENIES
In Many Particulars Orcliaul's Story
When Not Derogatory to llay-
woud Is Sustained.
Boise, July 12. Haywood, tho de
fendant charged with the murder of
Steunonberg, left the witness chair
this afternoon after having been un
der examination six houra. The time
was equally divided bj his own coun
sel and Senator Borah, who conduct
ed tho cross-examination of Hay
wood's testimony in his own behalf
practically closes the side for tho de
tense. One witness may be called to
morrow whose examination will tako
fifteen minutes. Counsel for the de
fenso wil then announce their close
and the state will begin tho rebuttal
unless motions to strike out certain
parts of the testimony should be
brought forward by the defense.
Tho counsel for tho state announce
their willingness to abide by the in
structions of the court to the jury
and will not occupy tho time with
arguments on motions to strike out.
There is now a prospect the case
will bo hi ought to its conclusion
within two weeks. Announcement
that Borah would cross-examine Hay
wood brought out an unusually largo
attendance. AVhcn Darrow, Hay
wood's counsel, closed the direct
examination of his client and quietly
remarkod, "You may cross-examine,"
the prisoner witness turned in his
chair and faced faorah, his faco pale
and his jaws firmly sot. Borah's
crpss-cxa initiation, always a rapid
nre, was more than unusually quick
!oday. From first to last Haywood
ireservod complete self-possession
and control. At times Ids replies
aine as quickly as the ' jiuo3ttohs
flung at him. Again he would speak
jvith slowly marked einph'asis.
t Haywood made no effort to deny
his knowledge of Orchard, and his
affairs or his coiinoctlon wl(h Slrap
klps. Ho was pressed, closely a3 to
tho passage of telegrams .relating to
the engagement of coun&el to defend"
Orchard and admitted lib knew SYmp
kins had retained counsel, but there
"Was no record of any leport from
Simpkins to officials of tho Western
Federation. Haywood explained that
the draft sent Simpkins for $100 De
cember 21, 1905, on the ground that
Simpkins had felt the money with
him for safe keeping.
He had no acknowledgment of tho
receipt of money and had not hoard
from Simpkins since that time. Hay
wood in many particulars confirmed
Orchard, but where Orchard connect
ed Haywood or the Federation with
any crime tho witness was very em
phatic pnd prompt in his denials.
Haywood showed no hesitation or do
sire to conceal the fact that Orchard
had visited him at his house or that
he on different occasions had intimate
conversations with Oi chard. Through
out, Haywood rang tho note of an
tagonism to what he calls tho capital
istic class and his confirmed view that
only with such methods as those fol
lowed by tho Western Federation can
the workingman hope to control tho
situation.

It holds that in this case it is
manifest the railroad "has unjustly

particulars against colored passen

railroads provide wash bowls and

Tho complainant, who had pur

plained that sho was discriminated
against because of her color and was
not afforded equal facilities.
Commissioner Lako, who rendered
tho decision of the Commission, said
today: "Tho expenso ofsmall smok

Grandfather's Fate.
J. W. Thrush, of Empire, was in
stantly killed yesterday afternoon
while blasting stumps at Ten Alile,
by the premature explosion of twonty
iive sticks of dynamite. With his
con Iloy, and a young man, Carl Ar
lington, Air. Thrush was -employed
by tho firm of Oakley & Arnold,
North Bond, clearing right-of-way for
u cutoff to the road leading from Ten
Aile creamery to North Inlet.
Air. Thrush placed a charge of dy-
namite and, lighting the fuse, walked
I the sticks exploded, blowing him into
etornity. AVhen the body was picked
up the faco was mutilated out of ail
recognition, the right hand was shat
tered and the left log was hanging
by shreds of skin.
Tho corpso was picked up and car
ried to the Ten Alile creamery, where
Acting Coroner Pennock was notified.
Ho immediately ordered tho romalnb
brought tp the Johnson undertaking
parlors In AInrshfleld. The body
reached hero about 12 o'clook last
night.
Witnesses to the sad accident say
tho grief of Air. Thrush's son was
pitiful. Ho saw the whole tragedy
and at first could not realize that his
father had gone forever. Imme
diately alter the explosion neighbors
uround Ton Alile were summoned and
kindly hands administered tp tho
handling of the corpse. A telephone
messago was sent to Empire City
and the wife of Air. Thrush was noti-
fiod of her loss. Air. Thrush was an
old and respected residonter of Coos
Bay and at the time of his death was
a member of the school board of Em
pire. Iq had also, served ,as con
stable in Empire. His age is given
at about sixty years.
A peculiar coincidence in connec
tion with the- fatality is tho report
sent the Times from Coquillc. Rich
ard Thrush, a cousin of the dead
man, lives on Randolph Slough on the
Coquillo river, and about fifteen years
ago the house in which ho was liv
ing was crushed by a landslide and
tho grandfather of the man killed
yestorday was killed, Richard
Thrush and another gentleman who
was in tho house escaped by crawl
ing through tho debris just as tho
crash came.
Tho timo of tho funeral services
for the late J. AV. Thrush have not
been arranged. It is thought that
the intormont will take place tomor
row. Tho deceased leaves a wife,
son and a daughter.

Saciamento, July 12. Late crops
will be harvested on nearly all of the
down-ilver islands which were flood
ed last spring, but little will be gath
ered from the interior of the islands
on account of the faHure to .drain the
water from any parts but near
levees. Potatoes, celery, some grain,
hay and asparagus will be harvested.
In many instances the asparagus was
not damaged by being under water
for several weeks. The Pearson dis
trict is almost dry and crops will be
harvested' along the levee fronts.
Androus, on the Lower Sacramento,
Bouldiu, at the junction of tho AIo
keluuino and San Joaquin rivers,
Arenice and several other Islands on
the lower stretches of the two rivers
are still under water.
The break at Brannan island is
not repaired and some water is still
running on the low ground. Crops
will bo harvested, however, on the
high strips near the levees. Late
crops of beans, potatoes, grain, hay
and asparagua will be harvested off
Bradford island on the San Joaquin.
The asparagus crop on the island was
under water for almost two months,
but "was not damaged In the least.
On Jersey Island, where the water
was drained two weeks ago, crops
of celery, beans, hay and asparagus
will bo gathered. The celery has
been transplanted and tho farmers
say that the crop will be the finest
in many years. Potatoes and beans
will be harvested from Frank's
Island, near Bradford island.
Twitchell Island will harvest some
potatoes, but not a large crop.

the clergyman out,
Tho meeting of tho trustees of
