Examination Begun Today.
Boise, Idaho, July 12.-Dominick
Flynn, one of the defense's witnesses
in the Haywood trial, was recalled by
the state when the case was opened
this morning. He was asked as to the
conversation he had with Daniel
Ganey at Mullen, Idaho, in 1899. The
questions were evidently for the pur-
pose of impeachment.
Haywood Was Recalled.
After Flynn left the stand Haywood
was recalled and his direct examina-
ton was continued. Haywood said
that Orchard had been at his house
three or four times. Most of the mem
bers Of the union called there when
they were in Denver, he declared.
Did Not Buy Horse.
The witness denied that he had had
anything to do with the purchase Of a
horse and buggy for Orchard to go on
his killing expeditions with.

to his headquarters in a buggy with a
colored man and said Pettibone want
ed to know If he could trade the rig
for a gray mare which the federation
owned, one of the nineteen horses
which had been used in distributing
relief in the Cripple Creek district.
Pettibone was anxious to get the mare
for one Of his delivery wagons.
Never Talked Of Killing.
The witness denied positively that
he ever talked with Orchard or
planned with him the killing Of Sher-
man Bell, Governor Peabody, James
Heeyn, David Moffat or Judges God
dard or Gabbert. He declared that
Orchards story on the witness stand
was the first he heard of the matter.

locate Haywood in it.
Letter to Orchards Wife.
AS to- the letter he wrote to Or
chard's wife November 10, 1905, Hay
wood said hianote was in reply to one
from Mrs. orchard inquiring of her
husbands whereabouts. He told her
all he knew about Orchard.
Kept Worst From Wife.

Orchard was. except as the latter had
told him his plans for going to Alaska.
Haywood did not care to tell Mrs. Or
chard what her husband said about not
returning to her.
Knew Nothing Of Plot.
Haywood declared he knew absolute
ly nothing of the plot against Cover
nor Steunenberg. The first he heard
of the assassination was in the papers,
which claimed that the crime was the
elimination of the troubles in the
Occur d'Alene.
Reported Finding Union Card.
The papers also reported that a
union card had been found in the ef-
fects of Thomas Hogan, who had been
arrested on suspicion. At the miners
headquarters there was considerable
question as to who Hogan was, the
consensus of opinion being that he was
Orchard, who had used the name in
leaving Cripple Creek to seek employ
ment elsewhere.

Simpkins the 500 draft December 81,
1905, was as follows: Simpkins came
