Tribute to Their Foes.
Statewide Landmark.


Recently the surviving members OF
the Twenty-third New Jersey volun-
teers erected at Salem Church, Va, a
monument to the memory OF their
comrades who fell in the battle at
Salem Church May %, 1868. The
remarkable thing about the monu-
ment, however, is that on one side 1t
bears a tablet of bronze with this III
scription:
"To the brave Alabama boys, our
opponents on this field OF battle,
whose memory we honor, this tablet
is dedicated"
The fact that the monument was
erected with this tablet only recently
became public and Hon. H. A. Her
bert, of Alabama, former Secretary
of the Navy, who was lieutenant COLO
mel of the Eighth Alabama regiment
which participated in the battle at
Salem Church, has written a most
appreciative letter to Gen. f. Burd
Grub, who commanded the New
Jersey regiment. Gen. Grubb's re-
Spouse to the letter is in fine spirit.
The incident is remarkable-that the
survivors of regiment should vol
unfairly put on a monument erected
to their dead comrades q tablet in
memory of those who opposed them.
A few years ago a Federal soldier
who suggested such thing would
have been denounced by almost ev-
cry Grand Army post as a traitor,
and:any sort OF recognition OF the
Confederates would have been re-
garded as reasonable The breadth
of the New Jersey people deserves all

BARROW COULD
NOT TRIP HIN
Murderer Orchard Stuck to
His Story in Face of Rigid
Cr0SS-Examination.

Boise, Ida, Dec. 13.-Clarence OAR
row. the Chicago attorney who is con-
Quoting the defense of George A. Petit
bone, had Harry Orchard, the states
chief witness, on he rack for two
hours and a half today endeavoring to
discredit his testimony. The cross-ex-
animation was rigid and effective in
that the witness was pictured as an in
human monster. murderer. bigamist
perjurer, gambler, thief and incendi-
airy. Profiting by the failure of Attor-
ney Richardson in the Haywood trial
to shake the testimony of Orchard,
DarrOw made little attempt to make
the witness contradict himself.
Twice only during the day did he try
to confuse Orchard in regard to his tes-
timony, and each time ne failed. Read
ing from the testimony of the Haywood
trial, Darrow endeavored to make it
appear that the witness had changed
his statements, but Orchard forced his
questiOner to read more of his testi-
mony given before, showing that his
testimony had been the same at both
trials DaTTow laid particular empha-
sis on the fact that Orchard was a
criminal before he became acquainted
with Haywood. Meyer and Pettibone.
After his cross-examination on each of
Orchards crimes before his trip to
Denver in December. 1903, Darrow
asked: Did you know Meyer, Hay
wood and Petitioner" and each time
the witness answered, No"
Darrow ANNOUNCED that he would
conclude his cross-examination tOmor-
row, and Hawley stated to the court
that the state would finish it's case by
next Thursday. Witnesses for the de-
Tense were therefore subpoenaed to ap-
pear Friday of next week

the following is included;
1T is true that if | obtain a major
ity of the proxies propose to put Har-
riman OFF the board of directors of the
Illinois Central. l have pledged my
self to do this, and I deem it my duty
to do so, both in the interests of my
self as the holder of 12,452 shares of
stock, in the interest of the patrons of
the road, of the people of Illinois and
of the United States, and to whom the
removal of such an individual as Har-
riman, as is shown by the interstate
commerce commission report No. 942,
would be a welcome sign of returning
morality into the management of the
great corporations of the country"

Arguments Begun.

After the reading of the Fish affida-
Wit, the formal arguments against max
ing permanent the injunction obtained
last October by Mr.. Fish restraining
the voting of stock held by the Union
Pacific and by the Railroad Securities
company were commenced.
Attorney John ]. Herrick opened for
Mr.. Hartman.
He declared that the statutes of Hi
nOis don't prohibit the requirement or
exchange of stock by connecting rail-
roads. and that the holding of Illinois
Central stock by the Union Pacific is
not Illegal He also asserted that Mr..
Fish had produced no facts to SUBJ
stantiate his allegations that his re-
mOval from the presidency of the Hi
nois Central had ensued because he OPP
posed the election of Deforest as a d.
rector.
Attorney Herrick continued his ar
gument against tn, injunction through
out the afternoon.

His Loans Secured.

He declares that all Of his loans were
recorded on the books of the company
and that the collateral was good and
sufficient. Referring to the loan of
$57 900 to the Trust Company of the
Republic, Mr.. Fish asserts that it was
good, but that in the panic of 1893 the
collateral deprecated; that the total
amount. $4,000, has been paid and that
the company will lose nothing
Mr.. Fish charges that the accusations
of acknowledgement made against him
are untrue. He admits being a direc-
tor of the Missouri Pacific railroad,
which is TO a certain extent COMPETE
tor of the Illinois Central, but says that
the charges that he desires domination
over the affairs of the Illinois Central
for the benefit of the Missouri Pacific
are false and slanderous.
