Western Federation Official on Trial for His Life Takes the
 Stand.
4 LONG SERIES OF DEHIALS
Confession of Harry Orchard Contra dicted in Practically Every Point Where it Involved the Prisoner.
 Witness Nervous.

Boise, Idaho, July II. William D. Haywood took the oath today "a witness in his own defense and in lengthy narrative of his life and his work as leader of his fellow miners, that was in terrupted by adjournment, deni- ed guilt of the murder of Frank Steunenberg, and the manifold crimes charged against him by Harry Orchard. Haywood was pale and trembling with nervous ness when he left the table of his counsel, and walked around to the elevated witness stand, where he faced the judge and jury and raised his right hand to be sworn. When he began to respond to Clarence Darrow's questions his voice was low and somewhat un-
 
 certain. but within 10 minutes he had regained his compoSure, and for the rest of the afternoon he was master of hls feelings. As he told of his boyhood that began with toll at the age of 9, and gave the history of his family, his in valid wife, who sat just to the left of the witness stand. began sobbing softly. Her mother-i in law and her nurse soon comfort ed her, however, and during the rest of the afternoon she and the rest of Haywood's $ kinsfolk re mained quiet but deeply concern ed auditors.
 Haywood's testimony was chiefly characterized by positive denials of the allegations made against him by the prosecution. He denied that he met Orchard until some time after the Nindi- cator explosion, denied that he sent Orchard back to Cripple Creek to blow up the Indepen- dence station, denied participa- tion in the Lyte Gregory murder, and denied suggesting or discus sing the Steunenberg murder He swore that he never gave Orchard any money at any time or place for any purpose. He declared that he never made a threat against Steunenberg who, he said, he regarded only as he did any politician who was being swayed by capitahstic influence, He told of a number of occasions, when he met Orchard in Denver :, in the ordinary course of his re lations with the federation and George Pettibone, and said he saw Orchard for the last time in August, 1905, when Orchard told him Ee was going to Alaska, and Haywood said he chided him for deserting his wife at Cripple 1 Creek.

urday in a closely contested game by
a score of s to S. Two goals from the
field won the game for Minnesota
Nebraska crossed Minnesota's goal
early in the first half. Minnesota
showed wonderful Improvement in its
defensive work. Nearly every tackle
by Nebraska resulted in a loss. Cap
tain Weller played the star game for
Nebraska.
The feature of the game was Cap
tain weIler's run of fifty yards for a
touchdown. When the Nebraska cap
tain crossed the line the rooters of
both sides yelled themselves hoarse in
an enthusiastic cheer of approval. The
ball was secured by Weller on a FUN
BILE. E,fuding the star tacklers of the
Minnesota team. wriggling and dodg-
ing he cleared all obstacles for the
only score by the visitors.
But, do as both sides would, they
were unable to break through each
others line for decisive gains, and
only Capron's kicking saved the day
for the home men, while the disas-
trous tumble, coupled with Weller's
brilliant run, brought in Nebraska s
score The crowd was one of the lar
gest in the history of local football.
