BORAH EXPECTED
HUNG JURY
Says 1t Was a Fair Trial
and Idaho Has No
Complaint

SALT LAKE, Aug. 5.-United States
Senator William E. Borah of Idaho,
who was the chief prosecutor in the
Haywood trial, was in Salt Lake City
last night, says the Telegram, for a
short time. He seemed to be complete
|, ly exhausted as a result of the weeks
OF hard mental strain, but was willing
to express his views on the Haywood
matter.
Senator Borah was firm in his de-
nouncement of Harry orchard and says
that there is no reason in the world
why he should not be given the death
| penalty. He said in part:
In view of the verdict of the jury
in the Haywood case any opinion that
may have had as to the guilt or inno-
cence of Haywood is foreclosed. l do
wish to say, however, that we had a
fair trial and the state of Idaho has no
complaint to make. Judge Fremont
Wood, though young man, conducted
this exceptional trial and one that call
ed for considerable executive ability in
an absolutely fair and impartial man
ner.
Speaking for the state, l think that
Judge Woods rulings and Instructions
We're made in accordance with what he
considered the law in the case. There
| has been some criticism of his charge
to the jury, and it was said that it was
unduly favorable to the defense.
The verdict in the case was a sur
prise to me. l expected a hung jury.
| Shortly after the case began felt that
there were some on the jury who would
vote for an acquittal and 1 thought all
along that a disagreement would re-
such an expenditure of money, l think,
is responsible for some of those who
were originally for conviction voting
for an acquittal. The jury was fair
one and l think it gave the verdict in
accordance with what it considered the
evidence and the law in the case.
The point which decided the jury in
| favor of an acquittal l think, was that
| it considered the story of Harry Or
chard had not been sufficiently corro-
borated. The court instructed the jury
| that it was to consider only the part
of Orchards story which had been cor
roborated by competent witnesses. In
giving this instruction the court fol-
lowed a statute of the state of Idaho"

Deep WELLS

Waters FluCtuaIeS As the
Sea EbbS and
Flows

WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-The geo.
logist in charge Of the ground water
Investigations in Virginia states that
changes In water level in wells, due to
fluctuations in the height of the sur
face of some neighboring body of wa
ter, have been observed all over the
world. 1t is customary to explain these
changes by supposing direct connec-
ton between the river, Lake, or bay;
but in many places. sa in eastern Vir-
ginia, such connection Is clearly inn.
possible, owing to the depth Of the
wells and the nature Of the Intervening
beds, some of them dense, tough marls
and clays. These beds, however,
though they do not transmit water,
nevertheless contain it, and as water
is practically incompressible. any
variation of level on the river or bay is
transmitted to- the well through the
waterfilled gxavels, sands. clays, and
marls. When a porous bed is tapped
by a well the water rises to the poinh
of equilibrium and fiuctuates as the
hand of the ocean varies it's pressure on
the beds that confine the artesian how.
In their investigation of the under
ground water resources of the Coastal
Plain of Virginia the biologists Of the
United States geological survey have
collected data relating to the many
hundreds of artesian wells that yield
excellent waters in large areas Of the
coastal region. Particular note has
been made of the quantity and quality
of the supply afforded by wells that
give flows at the surface. The water
Of most of these wells Is admirably
adapted to household uses, though that

eral salts in solution to make trouble
In boilers used for steam production.
The variation IN flow exhibited by
these wells with the rise and fall OF
the tide is Of peculiar interest, the now
being notably greater at the flood than
at the ebb tide. 1t is the general opin-
ion among well drillers that practically
all flowing wells near tidal rivers OF
inlets from open bays do feel the dis

COMPLAIN OF
EXPRESS RATES

OLYMPIA, wash, Aug. 5.-The state
railroad commission today took up for
consideration the complaint made by
the fruit growers of Puyallup and
Sumter against the Northern Express
company. The fruit growers allege
that the rates on berries to Tacoma
and Seattle are excessive and work to
the advantage of the California fruit
growers as against those Of this state.
The settlement of the matter is
awaited with considerable interest as
1t is the first complaint fled against
an express company by the state rail-
road commission since its organization
more than two years ago.
