ORCHARD'S EVIDENCE CLEAR During Argument Hawiey Said Prose cution Expected Perjury On Part Of Eaterly And Davit Takeg Up Testi mony Of Wood Regarding Explosion. BOISB, I!it July 20,-The trial of William D. Haywood, secretary and treasurer of the Western Federation of Miner which has occupied the District Court of Ada County for the Inst ten week has entered Its lnt stage mul .lames H. Hawiey, trading counsel for the prosecution is now arguing to the jurji that the. evidence presented by the elate proves the guilt of Haywood as a member to use his own words, "Of the led on a perjured affidavit l false and wor-l band of conpitrators that ever Infested any section of this wintry." Mr. Hawiey has characterized Or churd'c evidence aa a plain story told without effort at concealment, without Uwst fulness and without fear. He points out that a civs examination with out parallel In the trial of criminal ca ses failed to change the story in any one particular. He maintained that the confession of Orchard was due to the "Saving power of divln grace." Quoting the law of conspiracy that everyi man connected by the evidence with a conspiracy or combination must lie responsible for every act done and every word spoken by a member of the combination Mr. Hawiey said it was a just luw, becaue otherwise any man might preach aliominoble crime and then (all back claiming that his hands were clean, though (he foulest crime resulted from his advice. On this advice he said, is based the charge against Hay wood that he murdered Kx-Oovernor .Stcuncnbei'g and on this was based the affidavit maito by the county' attorney to secure the extradition of Moyei', Hay wood, and Pettibono. "Any statement," said Mr. Hawiey, "that counsel for the defense may make to you charging that the .extradition of these men was secur- Happy Colors You know that there are colors which signify sadness, others which indicate happiness but do you ever stop to think how often people are maue aa or giaa Because 01 tne colors 1 You know that children and flowers thrive best in the sunshine.

We mean that under the plain, law Haywood is guilty of the murder of Governor Steu nenberg," Mr. Hawiey has reviewed the evidence of the blowing up of the Bunker Hill and Sullivan concentrator at Wardner, for which he maintains the Western Federation of Miner .through the aets 01 it ollleciw, ws responsible and in plain words charged wilful perjury against a number of witnesses brought by the defence to contradict Orchard's story of the crime. He rceated!y anticipated the pro bable argument of counsel for the de fense which he said will be directed to ward exciting hatred towards aome per sona connected with the prosecution. "Yon will," he said "hear charges brought against the murdered governor, who did his dutys no more, no less when lie etahlished order in the Coeur d Alenes and called out soldiers wearing the uniform of the United States Army to cnsiiro peace." Mr. Hawiey said that the state expec ted Ksterly and Davis nnd Copley and Haywood nnd Mover to swvar that they had nothing to do with any of the crimes chnrired niramst them, tie s;uil lie did not llme them tor perjuring themselves when tlliey were charged with great crime, Turning to Colorado the counsel re ferred to the evidence of Thomas Moore, who swore for the defense in their show ing that the explosion at the Vindicator mine was due to an accident. The killing of McCorninek nnd Beck at the Vindicator he referred to as a heinous crime,' but snid a more awful crime was contemplated because the intention wn to blow a whole cnrload of non-union men to eternity without, warning. Mr. Hawiey produced n plan of the mine and witih a pointed cane showed the er rors in Wood's testimony. Ho brought out photographs to show that the con ditions Wood described were non-existent and finally he showed to the jury the pieces of the pistol which Wood said Heck carried in his pocket. Mr. Hawiey pointed out that Beck's body was not mangled and asked how this could be so shattered into scrap iron nnd no member, of the ninn's body be torn away. In conclusion of tills feature of his enlargement, Mr, Hawiey saids 1 WASHINGTON ITEMS Shipbuilding Greatest in Fifty Years. GUNBOATS ON GREAT LAKES Kansas Millers Win Railroad Fight Oregon Land Fraud Cases to be Thoroly Investigated Examination of Consu Body Prepared WASHINGTON', July 20.-After a tight lasting: many, rtiany years, the mil lers of Kansas this week won a long ilelayvd victory in the struggle with the railroads crossing their state The Howard Mills Company was the com plainant, But it evidently was backed by time. When the war of words died away nnd the opposing attorney halted for breath, Commissioner Prouty unlimber ed his judicial artillery. The result was that the Kansas millers are upheld, and the railroads are instructed to reduce the rates in accordance with the ruling. Xow that the flour case is out of the way, it is expected Jthat the victorious Kan ns will undertake to bring a similar ease before the commission in connection with tarilTs on coal Thirty-eight candidates for consular positions took oral examinations this week in the rooms of the Third Assist ant Secretary of State in Hie State De partment These oral examinations lasted one day, and written testa were made on two succeeding days The de termination of the Department to have none but competent men represent the United State abroad has led to the fix ing of the percentage required to pass at 80, 10 point higher than that usually exacted in competitive examinations for positions under the government. Among the contestants are several graduates of the. College of the Political Sciences' at Georg Washington University. This the mill owners of the whole state. The 1 MUution. it is believed by offickbof contention was that the Missouri Pacific and other lines unduly discriminated against Kansas flour and in favor of the product of California. This was done, ic was declared, by exacting rates for the transportation of flour in excess of contemporaneous rates for carrying wheat. There was enough heated argu ment, for and ajpiinst, In the rooms of the Interstate Commerce Commission to run a hot-air engine for a century of "This man Wood at first impressed us with the idea, that he was attempting to tell the truth, but we sent for the best men we could nnd to rebut him and we produced the superintendent of the mine, nnd a relative of Beck,' who with tears in his eyes, told all he knew and when they had finished we knew that Wood told a deliberate untruth and told it for the purpose of assisting this dofense." , : He maintained that in this particular Orchard's story of using the pistol to fire the powder must stand unimpenched. Throughout Mr. Hawiey' argument he repeatedly asked the jury to look for a motive for Orchard's crime or a motive for any of the crimes other than that of revenge or a determination on ihe part of the Western Federation of Mi ners to terrorize all who opposed them. the Administration, eventually will solve the problem of the rejuvenation of the foreign lines deaired by the government. So firmly convinced are the officials of this, that within the last few days per mission was given to John Ball Osborne, chief of the bureau of trad relations of the State, Department, to take a place on the faculty of this College of the Political Sciences, and he will deliver lectures on the consular service. The candidates this week were examined in onemodern language, French, German or Spanish; natural, industrial 'and com mercial resources of t'h'e United States; political economy; international, mari time and commercial law; American his tory and the history 'of Europe and South America and the Far East since 1850. There were other brunches touched upon, but these were the chief ones taken ' reliable employment bureaus. Another phase of the work will be the support of such men a Congressmen Littlefield and McCall, who incurred the displeasure and active opposition of labor unions through their treatment of certain legislation be lieved essential by the union The Manufacturers organization by no means intends to antagonize labor in any sense, but its supporters are of the opinion that such an open and above-board program will eventually result in drawing em ployer and employee closer together It is well known that organized labor has powerful lobby before Congress, and when certain measures advocated by this lobby, and deemed unwise by the Na tional Association of Manufacturers, are introduced, the Association hopes by a direct appeal to the people of the United States to bring the question up fairly for popular approval or disapproval ''' Another gunboat is to make its way to the Great Lakes, the State Depart ment having been assured by the British government that no objection will be ottered by that country. The vessel is the Don Juan de Austria, and it will raise anchpr t Portsmouth, N. H., next week and start for its new station by way of the St.- Lawrence' river. It is assigned to the use of the Michigan naval militia and will make the second war vessel plying the waters of that Lake, the 'other being the converted yacht; Dorothea, the pride of the Illinois fresh water tars. The Don Juan de Austria is a trophy of the 1st war with Spain, having fallen prize to AJtoiral Dewey in the memorable fight in Manila Bay It is likely that the question of .la bor will be prominently to the fore at the coming session oS Congress. The National Association of Manufacturers, it i probable, will seek to bring about a more even distribution of tabor throughout the country and will en deavor to solve the problem in another way through the promotion of indus trial education and the establishment of, Some idea of the remarkable rejiT- venation of an industry in which the United States at one time excelled, is found in the government report on the total tonnage of merchant vessels built in the United States in the fiscal year ending June 30. In that time 1463 vessel of 510,863 gross tons were con structed; this is the largeft tonnage in half a century and baa been exceeded only twice in American history. A strik ing feature of the report is the dtnte ment that during the twelve months 122 steel steam vessels of 300,685 tons were built, by, far the greatest tonnage of this description in the history of the country. The remarkable feature of this, however, is found in the fact that of these steel steamers, 47 of 238,713 tons were built on the Great Lakes and (Continued aa Page 10.)
