Another Perjury Charge.

Boise, July II. Another warrant
charging perjury against witness
who has testified for the defense in
the HAYWOOD trial was issued last
evening. C. w. Aller, formerly tele-
graph operator and ticket agent at the
Florence & Cripple Creek railroad at
Cripple Greek, Colo, is charged with
the offense by the prosecuting attor-
ney Of Ada county
Orchard Again Testifles.
Harry Orchard reapDeased on the
stand was asked few questions as
to his acquaintance with some Of the
witnesses for the defense who have
testified as to his movements. On
cross-examination he admitted that
his uncle, Peter Mckinley, committed
suicide by hanging thirty or fourteen
years ago Counsel for the defense
asked Orchard If this uncle was not
insane before he killed himself, and
also tried to show by the witness that
his maternal grandfather was insane,
his monomania being imaginary
crimes committed long time ago in
Ireland. Orchard denied all knowl-
edge of the grandfather, but admitted
that his uncle was emented.
Make Witness Out Liar.
The entire afternoon was taken up
with the examination of witnesses
who contradicted the evidence given
by G. w. Aller, who testified for the
defense in support of a charge of con
spiracy against the Western Fedora
ton of Miners, in which it is alleged
the mine owners organization, the
Citizens alliance and the Pinkerton de-
tective agency were concerned Aller
swore that he saw Orchard and D. c..
Scott together at the depot Of the
Florence & Cripple Creek railway on d
Sunday about three weeks prior to the
explosion at the independence depot
on the 9th day of June, 1904 Scott
yesterday afternoon swore that he
was not in Cripple Creek at the time
and a number of witnesses corro5o-
rated this. AS a result of this rebut-
tai testimony information was sworn
out after court adjourned, charging
Aller with perjury.

To Exclude Evidence.

The point argued was the PROPOSE
ton to exclude consideration of evil
dence offered by the defense to show
by proof of the deportation of miners
and the employment of detectives in
Cripple Creek district of Colorado
that conspiracy was formed among
the mine owners and the citizens of
the district to prevent the employment
of members of the Western Fedora
ton of Miners. The position taken by
the Haywood defense was that Harry
Orchard was employed by the Mine
Owners association through detect
ives to commit crimes that were
charged to the federation; that public
opinion was aroused against the union
miners, and that, if the Colorado evil
dence for the state was admitted the
defense had the right to show a coun-
ter conspiracy.
State Replies.
The reply of the state was that the
defense had failed legally to connect
their case in any of the particulars
stated, and therefore their evidence
merely confused the issue

ment for the state this morning. 1t is
