GRATED this part of Orchards confession. She
said that Just she about to alizht she
saw a man whose description tallies with that

and the other women hurried into the house.
Orchard also told how he tried 70 assassinata
D. H MOffat the railroad man and mine owner.
DuI he said his plans were thwarted by Mr.. Moi
fats sudden departure for Europe.
And not only did the inner circle plot the
death OF Governors OF states and mine owners
who stood in its way. but il IS also said 70 have
COnsp1red to kill judges whose decisions We're not
10 its liking. Orchard told how attempts were
made 70 take the lives of Chief Justice Cfabbert
and Judge Goddard. of Colorado In order 70
kill the latter he said he planted a bomb Just
outside the judges gate. so thar his victim
might kill himself Steunenberg did. But for
some reason the internal machine had not
worked. After Orchard had confessed this
search made of the Judge front yard and
sure enough. beneath the ground bomb was
found. and in the gate screw eve through
which the wire was operated. When the bomb
examined il was found tcas whed the gate
opened IL did not pull the cork out Of the
bottle Of acid, thus exploding the dynamite.
but instead il pulled out Of the cork the pir

eaten off the head OF the pill
Much mystery had attended the death OF Mcr-

had been intended for Justice CIabbert. Ths

Many of the murders committed in the course
OF the Cripple Creek and Telluride strikes in
Colorado We're also plotted. according TO Or
chard by "the Inner Circle" Of the Western Fed
Grafton of Miners. One of the most diabolical
of these crimes was the wholesale slaughter of
non-union miners on the railroad platform a
Independence Col. In obedience to orders from
leaders of the federation Orchard said he pulled
the string which exploded charge Of dynamite
under the platform, killing nineteen men.
In order 10 get alibi for this crime. Orchard
left town the day before, he said. with a man
by the name of Neville Orchard then went
back TO carry out the plot, and some days later
Neville went TO Denver. and threatened 10 tell
all he knew about the crime unless the fedora
ton paid him a round sum to keep quiet He
got the money and went to CToldfeld. New But
he paid for his treachery. finally. Orchard was
employed to kill him for the sum OF $1,000; but
not being able to do the job himself he turned
II over to one Sapp- Orchard said that Sapp
went 10 CiOldfeld. and soon after Neville died
n;ysteriously from being poisoned
The revenge OF the federation IN another IN
stance according to Orchard followed man
Bradley. who had incurred the hatred OF the
unions during the Coeur d'Alene troubles, went
on honeymoon with his bride 10 san Fran
cisco. There. in an unexplainable manner he
was killed in explosion At the time, IL
said that Bradley's death caused by his
lighting a match near leaking gas pipes Or
chard. however. said that he himself caused the
mans death He has asserted that he placed
bomb beside the front door of the house where
the newly married couple were staying and that
the engineer came out he opened the door
and exploded the bomb.
The murder of Superintendent Mccormick and
Foreman Buck OF the NindicatOr mine was
caused, so Orchard has said. by a bomb which
he himself set. According to the orders he goc
he placed the Internal machine at the
level, where it caused the death of men Whose
killing was not intended The purpose OF this
plot was to slay number of nOn-uniOn work
men. and had the bomb been put the next
level below il would have caused the death of
fifteen IN twenty sea bs'' who had just arrived
to take the place Of striking miners

STEEL IS THE BEST.
Lesson In Construction Learned From
San Francisco Earthquake.

New York, April 21.-The big con-
strueting companies in this city are
ia king great interest in the San Fran
cisco disaster, especially as far as the
damage to buildings is concerned
Every particle of news dispatches re-
lating to the manner in which the
modern buildings there withstood the
shock of the earthquakes and the con-
dition they We're in afterwards was
scrutinized eagerly by the building en-
gineers in the Offices of these com
panies.
The president Of one large company
said that he would start an engineer
for San Francisco at once. He said
that this move was not being made in
the hope of securing new business as
much as it was to get g thorough line
on just what condition the buildings.
and especially the steel work. were in
after the shocks.
All Of the building engineers are of
the opinion that a careful examination
Of the damaged steel structures in San
Francisco may lead to some discovery
whereby steel frame buildings may be
put up in the future with new devices
that will make them proof against
earthquake shocks.
Great satisfaction was expressed at
the offices of the Thompson Starret
company over the fact that the San
Francisco Chronicle building had with
stood the shocks and remained practi-
caIly uninjured until assailed on all
sides by flames. The plans for the steel
construction of this building were
drawn here. M
George Simpson, the chief engineer of
the Thompson-Starre company, is of
the opinion that the big modern build
ings in this city would Withstand such
earthquake shocks as those felt in San
Francisco
The east. and especially New York
city" said Mr.. Simpson, "is far ahead
of the far west in the matter of
thorough building construction. In the
case of our modern buildings the steel
frame work sets on bed of concrete
that has been built on top of solid
rock.
Nov it will be observed from the
news dispatches that all of the steel
stood the shocks, and the only damage
done to them outside of fire was the
falling out of part of the walls. In
those cases the outer walls were mere
" built onto the steel work. With our
big buildings the walls are anchored
to the steel frame work.
Each big piece of stone has imbed-
ded in it a steel bar, from which an
other arm of the same material runs
in at right angles. and is riveted or
bolted to the frame work.
This is what I mean by anchored
walls, and in the event of an earth
quake it would take a terrific shock
to loosen these walls. Were it possible
to erect an entire steel building resting
on a solid foundation, there would be
no fear from earthquakes. In the Phil
ippines they are now building some
churches of steel framework with a
sheet iron covering. This is done in
anticipation of earthquake shocks"
