STEUNENBERG MURDER CASE

BOISE, March 2.-The Statesman
will say tomorrow:
1.-THE Statesman is authorized to
announce that Steve Adams, arrested
at Haines. Oregon, for alleged con-
nection with the Steunenberg assass-
nation, has made a full and sweeping
confession. This confession is far
more sweeping than Orchards.
"This statement was made last
evening by James MCFARLAND, the ia
nous detective, in the presence of
Governor Gooding and H. H. Hawley,
who is in charge of the prosecution.
mcfarland added that the Adams
confession is fully and exactly cor
roborated by that made by Orchard
at every point touched upon by both.
Moreover, MCFARLAND continued,
Adams knows far more of the work
ings of the inner circle than Or
chard knows, and is able to give a
mass of detailed information that
Orchards confession does not cover.
1.-The confession of Adams, he
said, corroborated that given by Or
chard at every substantial point con-
nected with the assassination of
Steunenberg. Adams, however, was
not at Caldwell at the time of the as
sassination of the former governor,
nor was he with Orchard at the time
of the unsuccessful effort in Novem-
Der. The man who assisted Orchard
on the latter occasion was Jack
Simpkins.
Another statement made by the
detective was that Adams confession
gave the details of a large number of
murders not referred to in any man
ner by Orchard. 1t was further
stated that the confession was re-
duced to writing, signed and ac-
knowledged. 1t was voluminous
document covering great field, and
is more in detail than is the confess
sion made by Orchard. The further
statement is made that Adams made
the confession without being prom
ised anything. When he was talked
with about the matter, he simply
made a clean breast of all he knew
about the case, and Of the secret
workings of the Western Federation
of Miners.
at was announced by the Govern
or, Hawley and MCFARLAND that while
they thought these facts should be
given to the public, there would be
no further information given out or
limited at regarding this confession"
Governor Gooding tonight gave
the Associated Press signed state
ment pronouncing as tissue of false
hood the recent article of a special
correspondent alleging a disagree
ment between himself and Prosecutor
Hawley. On the contrary, the gov

CONFESSION OF $4,000 WORDS.
Refuse to Make Public
Details of Adams Crimes.

BOISE, March 3.-Nothing what
ever has been learned regarding the
confession made by Steve Adams be-
yond the general statement made in
these dispatches last night. The au-
thorities refuse absolutely to make
public any of the details. That the
confession covers a wide field is in
Dictated by the time consumed in talk
ing it down. This was between sew
EN- and eight hours, and the entire
document is thought to contain more
than $4,000 words. Adams was in
the Cripple Creek region in Colo
RADIO during the labor troubles there,
and was arrested in connection with
the attempt to wreck train. He
was also arrested in connection with
the explosion of the Vindicator shaft
He is said to have disappeared from
Cripple Creek shortly after the indie
pendence explosion.

NOT YET. NOR SOON.

It will be many day, no doubt, be- fore our Uncle Samuel will turn over to our little brown brothers of the Philip pines the reins of self f-government. There are so many varieties of these brown brothers, so many that are densely ignorant, so many that love darkness rather than light, that it would not only be extremely hazardous to give them independence, but proba- bly, positive cruelty. Cuba, with cen- turies of access to enlightenment, hard ly appreciates it's independence and acts as if frequent revolutions were the only things necessary to happiness. Great Britain is up against like proposition as regards India. It holds India by the sword, and could not hold it otherwise. A writer in Blackwood's remarks: "Our rule rests on the British forces in In- dia. Trusting to our power and to our determination to uphold a just and
 righteous government. capitalists of all nations have invested money in Indian railways and trade We cannot use the British army to maintain gov- ernment which is not in all respects
 such as the people of this country can
 approve. This condition can only be secured at present by employing suffi-
 cient number of Englishmen to control
 and give character to the administra-
 ton. So far, therefore, as human fore sight can reach, it does not seem pos sible to advance much further toward popular government or toward dispens- i ing with the services of Englishmen, and it is better to make that clear to all concerned. Whether or when the
 time may come to take the final step
 and to hand over the reins, as we are
 doing in the Transvaal, is an interest ing subject of speculation, but is not, it
 may be fervently hoped, a practical uuestion"

-1N IMpORTANT MOYE.

An important move for the good of humanity is that just begun in New York city for the prosecution of man. ufacturers of impure and adulterated drugs. New Haven is to be congratu- lated, for in this important matter a move in the right direction was start ed two or three years ago, and this city now has successful plant under the direction of physicians where ab- solutely pure drugs are produced, and over one hundred and fifty of our best medical men all over this state avail themselves Of it in their daily practice. Tn this city as in every other, as far as known, physicians have been an- moved. and their curative efforts fre- queatly confounded, because instead of the pure ingredients which their pre- scriptions called for, adulterated goods were used, the desired effect upon the patient being therefore nullifed or only partially obtained while in special critical cases absolutely irremediable harm was worked.
 in New York a raid upon impure drugs has been well begun. Recently Dr. Darlington became convinced that there were grave abuses to be rems. died, and he set Q force of chemists to work to make assays and analysis of samples of drugs collected all over the city. The result was astonishing. + was shown that of the ten thousand samples collected and tested there were fewer than 30 per cent. that came up to the standard of the Pharmacopoeia. over 15 per cent, called for a warning to the manufacturer, and more than 50 per cent. invited prosecutions. In other words more than half of the samples analysed which on the whole fairly represented the general character of drugs sold over the counters of drug stores in that city, were fraudulent. Dr. Darlington says that he finds wholesale druggists doing business in that city perfectly willing to do all they can to correct abuses and that when the Pure Food law goes into effect nexi January there will be little to criticise in the quality of the goods offered foi sale by druggists in the metropolis.

STILL K4R1IKE.

Our grand naval review of late was scene to stir national pride and an ob- Ject lesson to foreign nations to keep hands off from ris. Like all the great nations of the world we are spending immense sums for defense. The gospel of the Man of Peace is our gospel, but the prevailing voice of mankind is still for war. Each great nation vies with the other in having the best, the most effective, the most powerful, the most destructive of war equipments. The na- tion whose equipment can kill or maim the most human beings in the shortest time is king of nations. Among the many new instances in this line of competition is the new heavy gun for field work adopted by the French army called after it's inventor, the Rimailho, and which has been placed Ion view for the first time at the manoeuvres now going on, for, battery of four pieces has been attached to the artil- lery of the Second Army corps.
 The gun has been experimented With ever since the Boer war, It has prov ed that heavy artillery can be used in the field. Although 1t was tried at the siege operations before Chslons in 1902, when General Andre was In the war off, flee, 1t has been left to M. I1tienne, the present Minister of War, to provide for its final issue to the army.
 The calibre of the piece is 155 milli- meters Cover six inches). It's projectile weighs about eighty-eight pounds. The gun carriage Is in two parts, there be- ing two separate carriages, upon one of which the gun slides back for travelling. Twenty horses are used to draw the whole piece, eight fer the gun carriage, six for the fore carriage, and six for the Timber.
