TURNS GODDARD DOWN.
ST. AIbans High School Wants En- to
Get Reputation.

ST Albans, June s.--The claims Of
Goddard seminary to the Vermont pre-
paratory school base ball championship
has been observed with surprise by the
st. Adams high school Goddard semi.
nary has evidently overlooked the fact
that while they were beaten by Mont \
pelier high school by score of 3 to 3,
st. Albans high school has not lost a
game to Vermont preparatory school
this season, and has won two games
with Montpelier BY scores of II to z
and to B.
The desire Of Goddard seminary for
game with st. Adams at Burlington
is not to be considered, for st. Albans
already has the championship, and To
play d game not previously scheduled
would be a waste of time and money.
That the seminary Is not d match for
st Albans was shown clearly in the
Montpelier high school games Although
nearly the end Of the base bali season,
the st. Albans high school il willing to-
defend it's title against any team
which has not been beaten by any pre-
paratory school, and which has con-
formed to the rules set BY the school

Albany,N Y, June s.-For the first
time in recent years the senate and
assembly are in state Of complete dead
lock. Adjournment has been indefinitely

viii appoint conference committees and
newn egotiations win take place, but
the prospects Of long tie-up are
bright. Senator Tully, chairman Of the
senate committee, said this morning: Il
am sorry to say we are as far apart as
ever he added, 'the chances Of the
senate surrendeTing are about one to a
hundred"
Governor Hughes has declined to enter
into any negotiations with the assembly
holding himself bound py his stand aud
acceptance Of the senate plan. No one
maintains that there is any superiority
Of the Wadsworth plan over the senate
plan in any political or constitutional
phase. The whole question at issue is
that of the personal fortunes Of the
Wadsworths.

In Attempt to Shake His
Testimony at Boise
MORE GRIMES REVEALED
Strongest Assault on His Connection
With Events Beginning With Ex-
plosion Of vindicator Mine
Traffic With Other Side.

Boise, Idaho, June s.--Counsel for
VIM. ID. Haywood continued their at
tack on the testimony Of Harry Orchard
at both sessions Of the trial yesterday.
They made their strongest assault on
the witness's connection with events
beginning with the explosion in the Vim
dicator mine and ending with the earlier
meetings between him and the leaders
Of the Western Federation Of Miners
iii Denver. TO the extent that traffic
with "the other side in the war be-
tween labor and capital in Colorado
discrediting the witness.
More crimes, great and small, were
added to Orchards record. The Cripple
Creek woman with whom he committed
bigamy had three sons. Orchard stole
high grade ore from a messmate; he
stole two cases Of powder from the
Vindicator mine; he stole powder to
make one Of the bombs thrown into
the Vindicator coal pile and he lied.
The defense endeavored in various
ways to throw doubt and improba-
bility around Orchards whole Vindi-
Gator mine story and the alleged con-
nection Of w. +. Davis and William
EasterIy with the affair and the cir
eumstanccs under which Orchard testi-
fed that he met Meyer and Haywood
and was paid for the commission of
crime. II also tried to discredit Or
chard's story that he was sent back
to Cripple Creek with unlimited credit
ana orders TO commit any act of vio-
lence that he cared to.
They confronted Orchard with East1
eas 0Mney Barnes and paved the
way for contradiction by them of the
story told BY Orchard. Several times
during the day they paved the way for
controyersion Of his testimony on ma
terial points.
