The opinion of Mr. Kavanaugh will

Boise, Ida.. July 13. With ten wit
nesses in rebuttal examined up to the
noon recess the prosecution can be said
to have made lightning speed In the
conduct of Its side of the Haywood
murder trial. The chiefs event of the
morning was the absolute riddling of
the testimony of the old soldier, Elliott,
who swore he met Orchard on a train
n November, ltOfi, and that he warned
him that there was going to be 'some
thing doing" In Idaho soon. The rail
road agents on the roads over which
the old man claimed he traveled showed
positively by the train dispatchers
sheets he could not have taken the
Journey as he did, while a hotel clerk
fro-n Salt Lake City swore that on tne
dates mentioned Orchard was in that
city. As a matter of fact, howevur,
Elliott s evidence was absolutely dis
credited by himself when he admitted
he had been in the insane asylum sev
eral times and had only been released
In order that he might become an In
mate of the soldiers home nere.
Coeur d'Aleners gave evidence which
throws doubt of Dr. McQee'a statement
that Orchard was In Wallace In July,
1904 and aenerally SDeaklns the rebut
tal was of a character that usually In
fluences a Jury. Deeds offered in evi
dence showed that the Orchard interest
in the Hercules mine was disposed of to
Cardone one year before the Coeur
d'Alene troubles.
Wordy clashes between the attorneys
were the feature of the day but Judge
Wood regularly interfered and restored
peace.
Bsbnttal Is Strong.
The defense rested Immediately npon
reconvening of court and the state
called as Its first witness John Rice, a
Caldwell attorney, who swore Orchard
did not have a mustache In November,
when, witness Elliott saia he met mm
on a train.
Ijan uurney. of Walla Walla, Wash
ington, contradicted Dominlck Flynn,
who swore Orchard was playing cards
the day the Bunker Hill and SuJJlvan
mill was blown up. Oarney said
Flynn told him at that time that be
didn't know where Orchard had gone.
R. E. Orunshaw, of Deadwood, identi
fied John O'Neill, editor of the Miners'
magaslne, whom he knew in Dakota In
1880. He was called to testify that
O'Neill was tried for murder but the de
fense objected and the court took the
matter under advisement.
E. M. Hughes, a railroad manas-er.
contradicted Witness Elliott by swear
ing that Elliott oouldn't have ridden
on the train, he swore he did and T. C
Callopy, another railroader, gave similar
testimony.
Elliott contradicted.
J. IT. Stevenson, clerk of the Cullen
hotel, at Salt Lake, swore Orchard was
there at the time Elliott said he saw
him on the train.

chard stopped at his rooming house

was the time Dr. McOee testified be

witnesses have testimony contradicting
that of McGee.

New York. Julv IS. The schooner
Rlokerson was sunk by the White Star
liner Romanic, and three of the crew
lost - in yesterday's fog off Nantucket
South Shoals lightship.
With streaming flags, waving hand
kerchiefs from the crowd assembled on
shore with whistles saluting and with
the band playing, the United States bat"
tleshlp Charleston .slowly stesmed out
of Portland harbor this morning.
The crowd Of spectators on the bank
was much Interested In tbe prepara
tions for departure. The dolorous cry
of the siren shortly before 9 a m., drew
to the river bank many Interested per
sons and served as a signal to call In
the launches and small boats of the
ship which were still afloat
Comma- alonrslde the launch rested.
while the long arm of the. derrick
reached out with Its strong fingers and
gripping ths little craft lifted it bodily,
sailors and all, Into the shlup and set
down as softly as sn ersshell. In its
appointed berth. A similar service was
oerformed for a rowboat on the other
side.
Bads Each Other rarewetL,
Middies on board and girls on shore
bade each other farewell with the two

Interested spectators tried to guess the
tenaer messages.
At 9 o'clock the Potter steamed by
and saluted with tbe whistle. At 9:30
the bugle called to quarters and anchor
was raised, one line being left attached
to the east shore. The tug John Mc-
Craken, to which a line was attached at
the rear of the Charleston, pulled the
big boat out Into the middle of the
stream and assisted her to get under
headway, then cast loose, and under her
own steam the big boat glided slowly
down the river. As the shin pulled out
the band played slowly Auld Lang

strains of "The Olrl I Left Behind Me'
All Floating Craft Saints.
All floating craft saluted ths ship
with three whistles, and the ship siren
responded. Mills and tugs and even the

Superintendent Fuller Gives Reasons. t
"I'll see If tbe people of this city
haven't some rights when It comes to
cutting Off sidewalk corners by street
car companies and I'll soon put a stop
to If Mayor Harry Lane.
Vexed because Superintendent Fuller
of the Portland Railway, Light A Power
company and the engineer of that com
pany had refused to give City Engineer
Taylor any satisfaction when that of
ficial asked them to mage some arrange
ment to keep streetcars) from endanger
ing tbe lives of people standing on ths
corners on Alder street, between First
and Second, Mayor Lane made, the above
utterance yesieraay, , -
Some time aaro an ordinance was
passed permitting ths street railway
company the use of Alder street be
tween First and Second streets for the
use of the Oaks train. The tracks have
Just been put In operation and lap over
on the sidewalk at the corner so closely
that oeoDie standine- there are in a an
cer of being brushed off.
To eliminate the danger and to keep
the cars from covering about three
reei or tne corners tne streetcar com
pany has commenced to cut off that
amount from tbe corners. This will
give them a 12-foot radius and they be
lieve that the danger will be lessened.
Gets , aro Satisfaction.
City Engineer Taylor wants ths track
farther away from the sidewalk but re
peated efforts to get this done have
oeen rruiuess. une permit under which
the company is operating has no ' pro
vision pertaining to where the tracks
shall be laid, but revocation of the
license may be had at tbe option of the
council.
Members of the street committee were
also of the opinion that the license
should be revoked but it was not desired
by some to take the responsibility of
doing so unless sanctioned py the enure
council. -
For the present' it Is not known what
action will be taken, but. there is a probability-
that unless the tracks are
changed the permit will be revoked at
the - meeting ' next Wednesday.
Councilman Kellaher moved In the
