The Montgomery advertiser., 1907-06-12

did not know what he was doing there.
 Then Richardson. took another tack. Where did you get your fresh meat while you and Steve Adams lived at GlobevfIler
 Sometimes at Max Malich's." "As matter of fact. weren't you so hard up you stole meat from the stock yardr
 Wed go over and get sheep some times at night" replied Orchard. amid laughter.
 And you did not have any money?" Yes, we did" Then you found 1t easier to go over and steal sheep than to go down and make Haywood cough up'?" Tt wasn't very hard to do either" Orchard said he was drawing sup plies from the miners strike relief fund at the time he was being paid for crime.
 Now. will you tell the jury why you did this?"
 Yes, sir, I will" replied the witt ness. Mover, Haywood, Parker and Davis told me to take the supplies. as otherwise people would want to know where got the money to live on."
 Orchard said that the Gabbert and Hearne plots gave way for lack of op- portunfty to score against Goddard. Asked why he wanted to kill Goddard Orchard said 1t was because Haywood told him to. Haywood said Goddard was against the eight-hour law and helped to upset it.
 Richardson wanted to know If it was not fact that Judge Goddard had rot taken his seat on the Supreme Bench at the time of the plot
 All know is that he had been ap- pointed by Governor Peabody" the wit ness replied.
 Accompanied by Mrs. Adams.
 Orchard said that Mrs. Steve Adams accompanied himt and her husband when they stalked Goddard at his home.
 How was she armedr ne was ask ed.
 She was not armed; she went along as a blind"
 Once more the line of questioning led and Joe Mahlich had stolen some row. der to blow the hotel or boarding house, as suggested by Max Malich. The powder was not used. Maiich, Orchard said, had helped steal sheep and was asked to take part in the God dard affair.
 Richardson wanted to know if Steve Adams had not threatened to put or- chard out because he could not pay his bord bill.
 NO sir; we quarreled."
 Yes, and it was about your board bill, too," sneered Richardson.
 Tt was nothing of the sort,e re- torted Orchard with a fash of arger. Tt was because Adams had gone down town. got drunk and was put in Jail for a week. We could not find him anywhere"
 Adams had been found drunk hear a lamp post where a bicycle was stand ing. On this circumstautial evidence he was accused of the theft of the wheel. but the charge was removed. Orchard said he gave Adams $20 to get him out of town. This was because Haywood would not give Adams any more money "to get drunk on."
 Adams and Orchard parted company for while after this. The latter con- tinued to seek an opportunity to de- stroy Judge Goddard.
 Richardson brought a new feature to the case by asking Orchard in regard to his acquaintance with Lottie Day. The witness said he met the woman after going to live at the hotel Bel- mont following his break with Ad- ans.
 Before he could "get" Goddard. Or chard said that Mover, Haywood and Pettibone all three told him to go down to Canon City to continue his at- tempts on Peabody. The arrangements were made at Moyer's home in the Ab- erdeen flats. This was the first time Orchard had brought Mover into the case for a long while.
 Orchard was about to go into details of the conversation with Mover, Hay wood and Pettibone when court ad- tourned until tomorrow at 9:30 o'clock.
