Grandfather Was Insane on the Sub
lect of Imaginary Crimes and That
His Uncle suicided While Demented.
Boise, Ida, July 16.-Harry Or
chard, the principal witness for the
state against William ID. Haywood,
was called in rebuttal when the trial
of the secretary of the Western Fed
Grafton of Miners was resumed. Or
chard was In the chair about twenty
minutes. The questions of the state
were few and in less than five min
utes Orchard was turned over for
cross-examination.
+. L. Richardson, cross-eXamining,
asked il Orchards maternal grand
father was not insane on the subject
of imaginary crimes. Orchard admit
ted that his uncle, Peter Mckinney,
who lived in Northumberland, Ont,
had hanged himself while insane. He
denied all knowledge of grandfather
named Patrick Mckinney. This cross
examination was based on letter
received by the defense from b. f.
McKinstrey Cf Alemedia, Pa.
Neiahbor Gave Information.
The writer claimed he received the
information from Mrs. Margaret Bull
of Woller, Ont, who was a neighbor
nd fat 4 hav
of Horsley, or Orchard. She said
Patrick Mckinney was IAN old style
country gentleman, but he became In
sane and raved of crimes he had COM
mitted in Ireland, as result OF which
his family kept him chained for
years"
Orchard appeared little paler than
when on the stand In direct examina-
ton, but he showed the same quiet
self-possession.
William Dewey, the witness who
made a confession on Saturday, and
other witnesses In rebuttal testified
briefly.
When the trial was resumed Judge
Wood announced he had decided to
sustain the objection OF the defense to
the admission in evidence OF the rec
ords OF the state insane asylum show
ing the commitment to that institu-
ton of John D. Elliott, who as wit
ness tor the defense related long
conversation which he said he had
with Harry Orchard In November,
1905. The court cited statute which
not be accepted as witnesses. Ap-
parently, he said, the prosecuting at
torneys knew of Elliott's commitment
when he appeared on the stand and
they should have objected to his tes-
timony at that time.
Dewey again on Stand.
William Dewey, who startled the
courtroom Saturday by confessing to
participation in the Occur d'Alene
riots and the attack on the Bunker
Hill and Sullivan mines, was recalled
further to identify w f. Davis as the
man who handed out guns and ammu-
milton the day the mob started for
the mill. The defense took advantage
of Dewey's temperance to question
him further as TO his motive for testi-
fying at this time. Dewey denied that
he had been allowed to go in debt to
the extent of $500 to the union store
at Cripple Creek through the len1ency
of Davis. who had finally refused fur
ther credit. but he admitted owing the
union $40 or $25 for supplies from the
store.
Lawrence Guibbini, the San Fran
cisco grocer who lived across the
street from the Bradley apartment
house. was recalled to deny that he
served drink to man named Reilly
the morning of the Bradley explosion.
Reilly, who appeared as witness for
tho defense, declared Guibbini and his
wife had served him drink. Mrs.
Guibbini also took the stand and de-
MED what Reilly had said.
On cross s-examination Guibbini said
he had received 1925 as travelling ex-
penses for returning to Boise from
San Francisco.
Orchard Again Called.
Harry Orchard was called to the
stand. He denied he had ever been
called Shorty" Pat Moran. the
Cheyenne saloonkeeper, testified that
the Nevilles came to his saloon with
a man shorty" whom he supposed
10 be Orchard.
Orchard denied that he ever intro
duced Pinkerton Operative Gratias to
Max Malich or Joe Mehilit or that
Pinkerton Operative Riddell intro
duced him to Joe Barnes.
The cross-examination by the de-
fense was devoted to inquiry into the
family history of the famous criminal
