Bank Records Show That Orchard
Told Truth.
Boise. Idaho. June 21. Yesterday
the state proved by documentary evi
dence that money was sent Orchard
at San Francisco from Federation
headquarters as he testified. They
showed by the records of the Postal
company nt Denver that two remit
tances were made, one by Wolff, Pot
tibone's reprt sentativc, and the other
by P. Bone, the latter name being a
play on the words. Orchard testified
that stuh a name was often used by
Pettibone. Further, it Is understood
that a handwriting expert will testify
at some time before the case Is end
ed, that both applications were made
out by Pettibone. An interesting" fea
ture of those remittances is that
identification of the payee was
waived In both cases.
Another link in the chain of docu
mentary evidence of payments has
been forged. A dispatch received
from the First National bank states
that the stub of the $100 draft pur
chased for Simpkics In December,
1S05, showed it was secured on De
cember 21, the day on which the
money was sent to Simpktns for Or
chard, as shown by the letter sent by
Pettibone to the latter. In that draft
the second figure of the date had
been punched out. and it was neic
sary to refer to the stub to determine
that the draft was issued to Slmpklns
on the day that Pettibone gave as the
date on which the money was sent.

Laud Convention Told President's Pol
icy Will Be Kept Up.
Denver, Colo., June 21. Presi
dent Roosevelt has served notice on
the West, in a letter that was read at
the Public Lands convention, which
came to an end last evening after
adopting resolutions much less rad
ical than those who had the affair in
charge originally had intended, that
the present administration will until
its end pursue a policy of fostering
actual homemaking and preventing
the remaining public lands from be
ing exploited by men and corpora
tions and of prosecuting those who
perpetrate frauds.
The west, by reason of the presi
dent's written declaration and state
ments made in detail during the last
few days by Secretary of the Interior
Garfield and United States Forester
Pinchot, will have a much better un
derstanding of the administration's
intention with respect to a matter
that is second in importance to no
other now occupying public atten
tion. The better understanding has
been indicated already in the resolu
tions adopted by a convention or
ganized with intent hostile to the na
tional administration. These resolu
tions do not in their entirety express
what conservative representatives of
the public Iand3 states declare would
be the registered sentiment of the
west Itself If unrestricted expression
thereof had been permitted in Denver.
San Francisco. June 2 2 The tele
graph operators employed by the
Western Union and Postal Telegraph
companies left their keys at .1:30
o'clock yesterday afternoon and
walked out of the offices. Three
short blasts from a police whistle
gave the signal, and at the sound the
operators arose from the tallies, put
on their coats and quit their Jobs.
Both the 1'ostal and Western
Union main San Francisco office are
located close together in the Ferry
building. Since the fire the main
relay office of the Western Union has
been nt West Oakland, where, tint II
yesterday afternoon, nbout 150 men
and women were employed. In the
San Francisco offices about 20 oper
ators were employed, and at outside
branches about 2( more.
The Postal company had fiO oper
ators In Its main San Francisco of
flee. Kmployes of both companies.
with the execution of one in each of
flee, stopped work at the signal.
The operators In San Francisco
and Oakland were dissatisfied with
the letter from President dowry, of
the Western Union, published Thurs
day, and Insisted that their demands
for a 23 per cent increase in wages
should be granted.
President Small, of the Comtner
clal Telegraphers union, arrived
here Thursday, and after considering
the situation, ordered the strike tin
less the Increase was granted. Both
the Western Union and the Postal of
flcials decline to grant the Increase
or to consult with the union. They
expressed their willingness to con
sider and net upon nny grievances
presented by their employes as Indl
vidua!, but this has not satisfied the
men, and the walkout resulted.
LAWYERS REVIEW CASE.
LAST EFFORT OF UNION.
Telegraph Operators Ask Neil I to Use
Influence.
Chicago, June 20. With the gen
eral executive board of the Commer
cial Telegraphers' Union yesterday
approving a strike against both the
Postal and Western Union Tele
graph companies, the eyes of the
country are now fixed on Charles P.
N'eill, United States commissioner of
labor, who Is looked upon as the last
source through whom peace may
come.
The strike situation reached a
most critical stage during the day.
In the hope that strife may yet be
averted, Wesley Russell, general sec
retary of the union, telegraphed
from Chicago to S. K. Konenkamp,
deputy president of the National
Union, to find Commissioner Neil! in
New York and ask him to use his in
fluence in arranging a meeting of
representatives of both sides.
Defense Asks Court to Dismiss Hay
wood, But is Refused,
Boise, Idaho. June 2 2. Yesterday
!n the Haywood murder trial, after
the state had rested its case in chief
the defense made n motion for an
Instructed verdict, and there follow
ed the first protracted argument cf
the long contest. It occupied a long
afternoon session and was of the
highest interest, bringing out the
radical divergence between the views
of the state and those of the defense
respecting the governing law of the
case.
On the side of the defense the
claim was that there was no testl
mony to connect Haywood with the
murder of Frank Steunenberg, com
mltted by Orchard, an alleged new m-
plice of the defendant. The law re
spectlng the testimony of an accom
plice was quoted and commented up
on and it was claimed there was no
testimony to connect Haywood with
Orchard In the commission of this
act, excepting that of Orchard him
self, which could not be accepted.
Mr. Richardson made a very abb
argument along these lines. He went
over the testimony of most all th
witnesses, winding up his review rf
the narrative of each crime touched
upon with the declaration that there
was nothing to connect Haywood
with it.
Judge ood immediately an
nounced hla decision refusing the
motion.
"The court is thoroughly satisfied
that this case should be submitted to
the Jury. If I felt differently I would
not hesitate to so rule."
The court then explained that he
would not review the evidence in a
written opinion, because there were
two more defendants to bo tried
later.
Court then adjourned until 10
o'clock Monday morning.
Public Lands Convention Starts Cam
paign for T heir Elimination.
Denver, Colo., Juno ID. A iniyhly
campaign to defeat the jMilicy of the
present administration tt Washington,
which alms at the coiiscrvat ion of tin'
remaining public land of the 1'niled
States, was inaugurated in iH'tiver to
day. A convention known a the Pub
lic Inds convention, with dclcgMto in
attendance in greater oi letter number
from all the Mate west f the Missouri
river and from I lie territories, but real
ly dominated by sjH-cial interests in
Colotudo nud Wyoming, i to form the
Uiso of this movement.
The states, through some of (licit
representatives, argue thst It is essen
tial to their development that the na
tional go eminent flay its policy (
conservation, so that millions of acres
of land niar Ih thrown open to unre
stricted entry and exploitation, tirent
areas of conserved lands deprive the
elates of revenue through taxation, us
well as by preventing rapid growth of
population. The argument sounds log
ical, and can he met only by the arous
ed interest of the entire count iv
North, Fast and South, us well as West
to the fact that the welfare of tin
people of the United States n a whole
is at stake.
