Deposition. Read to Jury.

Boise, Idaho, July 10. - Part of the
San Francisco dispositions dealing
with the Bradley explosion were read
yesterday to the jurymen that are try
ing Haywood for the murder of Frank
Steunenberg and the rest Of them
will be presented to-day. The reading
began directly after the court sat.
with Clarence barrow and Senator
Borah alternating for their respective
sides. The dispositions have an i'm
portant bearing upon the case, but
they contained no interest for the
crowd. and the attendance was the
lightest since the trial began.
Both sides seemed to be satisfied
with the showing made by the depo-
sitions and their contents will proba-
bly, furnish much material for directly
opposed contention when the trial
reaches the argument stage. One OBJ
lection from the state constituted the
sole interruption for the day, and dur
ing all the rest of the time counsel for
both sides seemed united in getting
all the matter in the sworn state
ments before the jury.
