The fact thai Dunham and Donald
son are IN desperate straits for moaas
10 prevent Their clients, the conspsra-
tors. from gong ia Jackson iof term
oi years, has been amply proven. IL
has teen well known thai The only hope
that the attorneys who are defending
tue dynamlters had of clearing them.
Was in inducing those who had made
confessions. aud who intended 10
repeat what they had admitted
on the witness stand. Ia refrain
from doing so. There We're several im-
portant statements made by Packard.
Webster, Prindie and krausk ,ef, All of
whom declared IL as iheif intention io
60 on the stand and testify 20 the same
ADMISSIONS that were taken down hy
stenographer and affirmed TO by each.
Dunhsms Dsiags-
Dunhanl, as we'll as the other at
torness, was not long va coming 10 the
conclusion that anything like this c0uid
not be tolerated. az IL would Ice sure 10
blnd all OF their clients over to lhe
superior court on the charge of con-
splracy. They consequently prevailed
on all who had made clean
breast of the matter To re-
fuse TO testify. thereby sacrificing
those who would otherwise have
escaped lightly 10 save their clients.
One case will he cited 90 show tie
method pursued. The Others were
probably Invelgled into cutting their
own throats in about the same manner.
Henry ii. Hayens went on Packard's
bail bond and has shown quite all IN
terest IN the waywArd youth. Packard
had crying spell auc said he wauted
TO turn states evidence, which he par
TALLY did. Dunham went 10 Mr.. Hayens
and told him that he would defend
Packard free OF cost II Mr.. Hayens
would consent. The latter sald he
would upon one condition, and that
WAS that Packard should be allowed TO
60 on the sand and make the
came statements which he had
previously made to supt. Eastman.
To this Dunham assented and said he
would have Packard discharged before
night, Mr.. Havens forced tins promise
from Dunhan, AS he could not under
stand why IT Was that Dunham was 80
anxious to act as Packards attorney
without pay. When Packard was put
Oh tuG elabu anu ICiurt0 W HlteNtl
any questions put TO him, Mr.. Hayens
knew that Dunham had violated his word
of honor and had instructed Packard
to decline TO oanswer." Mr.. Havens WAS
righteously indignant. He cent for
Packard, gave HIM . good talking 70,
and ae result
Ounhasa was Discharged
as his attorney in spite of the fact that
he Was willing 10 defend him without
money and without price" On this
account it is expected that Packard
will again plead for chance TO tell
what he knows about the conspiracy.
1t is said on good authority that Prin-
die and Webster are being defended 10y
Dunham gratis for the same reason as
was Packard. II things turn out as
anticipated, there will be q few sensa-
tionai Developments IN the police court
tody that will make the dynsmiters
quake IN their SHOES, and cause Webster,
Prlndle aud Packard to curse the day
they allowed Dunham 20 bulldoze them
into acting IN such an unwlse manner.
