That Orchard waa a wonderful . wlt
ftess cannot be denied, and- that all the
eros-aueatlonlng of - Richardson1 only
felpad. to strengthen the teatlmofly of
the atate; Is also true.. Bot for all this,
there la nothing but pptrmlsra expressed
by , Haywood's legal regiment' So far
these men have -been purely oa.the de
fend. 'Next week they expect to carry
tha war litte, Africa, and y they premise
k sensational campaign. .'...- .. '
T Their -star, witnesses- will be -put for
Ward and the promise Is made that thelf
testimony will be no less salient than
that of Orchard himself. One of these
men will be Haywood and the other
Steve Adams, although Adams waa first
listed as a witness for the state. He
made, early in 10, a confession cor
roborating Orchards story. Then as
toon as he got an attorney he repudi
ated this statement absolutely, (1 eel fir
ing It waa extorted from blm WD

promises. .Immediately afterward he

dams a Tartar for the BUM.
Adams takes bis situation philosoph
ically. He feels that every publio offl-
ciais nana is against mm, ana mat tne
officers are determined to have him
danoe on the end of a rope, In one state
or another. According to his awn state
ment, he "does not give a damn, but .he
will give them a run' for their money
It -is not expected-that a man In such
a frame of mind will prove a valuable
witness for -the state. Adams himself
has '-stated that he .knows; nothing
against Haywood ' and - has nothing to
testify for the prosecution. Hawley
and Borah, for the state, believe they
can ;work a' statement out ot him.' It
is the general '.opinion,, however, that
Adams' story will lp the defense and
that he will then be called aa their wit
ness. -: y ... '
.. V ' State's Coup That railed.
The feature' of today's testimony was
tha fallurj. nf a. : tmitt' bv. tha state.
Former Qovernor Peabody -of Colorado
was called' to testify to ittetnDts on nls
life by Orchard In 1906. When he con
cluded be was turned over to tne de
fense for cross-examination. In' the be
lief that Mr. Richardson would - ques
tion him at length. - Then. In redirect
examination, Borah expected to have
Peabodv defend hla acts and give a
lecture to the Jury on the lawlessness
of the Western - Federation of Miners
generally- 'Richardson saw tne trap ana
declined to cross-examine.
Orchard's Trial postponed.
Other witnesses were Major Nay lor
of the Colorado National Guard, who
testified as to his activity against tne
strlkina- miners, and Miss cora i'eaDoar,
daurhtar of the ex-KOvernor. who was
called to testify to caving seen urcnara
and Adams in wait to shoot her father.
Still other state's wltneaacs were tne
sheriff who unloaded the bomb, .he
Denver plumber who made It, and half
a dosen others of small importance.
- Therr will be no session Monday, as

There was the same imnersona) note
about the story of that last pilgrimage
of death. Richardson seemed to ele
vate the tone of it, made it ring clearer,
It was wonderfully a ran tile drama
tie - bloodfreestng, a story to listen to
witn partea lips, nreatniess.
Hot a Shred of Brldenoe.
And vet it wasn't evidence. It
nroved nothlna. ' It did not even nrove
that Orchard killed Bteunenberg- not
even that. There has been evidence
that flteunenberK is dead. There has
been evidence that a bomb killed him.
But there has been no evidence, none
at all., that Orchard even placed that
bomb; no evidence other than Orchard's
own statement.
It has been the same with the blow
ing up of the Vindicator mine and the
blowing up of the Independence depot,
and the killing of Lyte Gregory, and
the attempt on tha life of Bradley. So
far we have come nearer to bringing
the Bradley affair home to Orchard
than any of the others.
It Is a pregnant situation. And it
must be remembered that Orchard is
not on trial here. It is William D,
Haywood. And - against Haywood, so
far. no evidence has been produced that
any system of Jurisprudence would ao-
cent as connecting mm witn tne tsteun

- v Charged Ail to Gordon.
The real Mr. Gordon and Mra rinninn
fixed up their differences and lived
happily together after considerable no
toriety. According to testimony they
had been married six years before In
the same Vancouver. '
But estrangements followed, and it
was during these periods of separation
that Gordon claims his wife frequently
disturbed the sale of real aetata to
prospective buyers by asserting her
right to title in various pieces of prop
erty which he owned. It was at these
times, too, that she bought expensive
silk dreeses and charged them to him.
Furniture and other household goods
were also bought, and once a ii.ooo
piano. Mr. Gordon remonstrated quite
loreipiy, dui nis wire atways carted
away the goods and the accounts were
paia. -.'.
With the distressing matter of bit,
ment of bills out of the way, the goods
were shipped to Sacramento and. sold,
Mrs. Gordon taking the proceeds to use
while they lasted. Then the same thing
waa uuao yir again.' . -,. .

In the fall of 1908. acting under in-
truouons rrorn tne cmei or the Ban
Francisco police, detectives located Mrs.
Gordon at the Portland hotel. She was
wanted for forgery. But shs refused to
leave her room for a'oounle of dava and
a guard was established In the corridor
of the fashionable hostelry where she
had been staying and charging her ac
count to uoraon, f inany starvea out,
shs was taken- In custody and a search
of her room revealed a complete coun
terfeiting ourrit.
Mrs. Gordon was taken to San Fran-
clsoo. where it is said both charges
against her were compromised by. her
husband's aid. , Since that time her
whereabouts haa been a matter of con-
lecture. Last fau sue remained in
Portland a short time, but It' waa not
until Friday, when Gordon caused her
arrest lor aorrm-r nis xooisiens ana nnr
noylng him, that she again appeared bo-
zore tne puntio gase.
Miss Lerch is persistent in her asser
tions that the Gordon, she married in
Vancouver seven or eight years ago is
tha same man she took unto herself in
the same city less than two years ago.
Mr. 'Gordon says no, and says it vehe
mently. He says the other Mr. Gordon
was a dummy who impersonated him.
The minister who performed the last
marriage says so, too, likewise the wit
nesses. ., Miss Lercn, to tne contrary,
says she knows better than any of them
who her husband or husbands is or are.
Mr. Gordon always asserted that Miss
Lerch married the dummy E. H. Gordon
so that in case of his own death she
could lay claim to his estate as widow.

San Francisco, June B. Judge Dunne
today absolutely refused to release
Mayor Schmlts, convicted of extortion,
on ball and ordered that he be held. In

tha final step in the lower court
Attorney Campbell, for Schmlts, oon-
tended that the mayor's old bond of
M40.000 is still good and urged that
Schmlts ought to be at liberty to attend
to the city's business.
District Attorney Langdon, for the
state, opposed the release, denying that
publto service, required it He quoted
the city charter to prove that an acting
mayor could be appointed, Jsdge Dunne
ruiea: -
"During my term on the bench I have
persistently denied such motions. - and
the mere fact that this defendant is the
mayor has no particular weight The
court denies the amplication. '
- "This prisoner will be treated - the
same as all others under like-circum
stances. The sheriff ha no discretion
in the matter, but must receive the
prisoner into custody and proceed as the
law requires. We have had the course
of Justice blocked by this sheriff in
other courts.- I do not Intend to have
It occur in this court."
District Attorney Langdon said:
'I am not sure that the sheriff has
done his full duty in regard to this
prisoner. I want to question the sheriff
In that regard.
Sheriff O'Nell was called by Judge
Dunne and declared he had allowed
Schmlts no liberty except in accordance
