Federation of Miners when the defense made it's first strong attack. Attorney Richardson objected to the testimony on the ground that the events occurred years before Haywood was a member of the Colorado body of the Federation and that he was in no way connected with 1t. Sen ator Borah contended that the state had a right to prove the facts about the Bun- ker Hill and Sullivan mines for the pur- pose of showing why the Western Fed eration Of Miners had taken umbrage at Governor Stcuuenberg. Judge Wood ruled that the 'aaeral facts were admissible, but put d hitation on the amount or de- tails that could be shown. Similar ob- jectons and similar rulings were scatter ed throughout the testimony of the star witness, Judge Wood invariably allowing considerable latitude on the promise of the prosecution that later witnesses would connect the details with the case now be- ing tried
 Hogan" or Orchard.
 The first witness today was J. M. Brun- zell, a hotel proprietor of Nampa, Idaho, Brunzell identified the names of Thomas Hogan and John l.. Simpkins in his hotel register for November 1905. Hogan or Orchard was at the hotel with SimplSins on November l3.
 The presence of Simpkins at Nampa on November and at Silver City on Novem- Der 8, 1905 was established by A. Hinkey and J. A. Corners, hotelkeepers in these respective cities
 During the giving of testimony, Hay woods mother, a gray-haired, Kindly faced woman, wearing spectacles, entered the court room for the first time and took a seat beside the prisoners wife. Hay woods sister also was present today for the first time.
 Following Hinkey and Corners the stand came c. H. WentZ, a boolkkeeper of a mining company at Walker, Idaho. Wentz said he knew Jack Simpkns. He identified the photograph of Simpklns, which offered and accepted in evil dence over an objection from the defense. Weltz also identified Simpkins' signature in the various hotel registers. Simp- kins sometimes went under the name of Simmons. The hotel registers were nl- lowed in evidence by Judge Wood, the defense objecting and excepting to the ruling. Wentz was not cross-examined. Guy Feight of Nampa told of seeing Orchard and simpkins in company at Caldwell prior to the assassination of Governor Steunenberg.
 There was a delay of several minutes after the conclusion of Feight's testi- rnony, Senator Borah simply announcing: ."The next witness will be here in a moment"
 Immediately there was intense excite ment in the court room the report quick ly spreading that Orchard was to make the next witness
 The wait of five minutes seemed like so many hours. Finally. to relieve the strain and rest1essness in the court room, came the loud voice of Hawley, for the state, saying.
 Harry Orchard Appears.
 Gall Harry Orchard"
 Hardly had the words left his mouth when Orchard appeared at the door lead- ing from the prisoners section of the building. He was attred in natty gray suit and walked with a firm step. He was preceded to the wtress chair by Deputy Sheriff Beamer, a stalwart fel- low, more than six feet in height, and followed by another deputy from tie penitentary. Orchard had to pass directly T in the rear of Haywood and his family His eyes were cast down. Arriving at the elevated witness stand, Orchard stood for moment with hand $ nplifted while the ,elerlS delivered the oath
 Where do you live?" asked MT. flaw ley.
 Orchard did not seem prepared for just this question, and he hesitated moment Finally. in an almost inaudi- hle tone, he said he was confined in the state penitentiary,
 Speak up MT. Orchard" said Senator Borah. "The court must hear you"
 Are you charged with any crime" asked Hawley.
 Looks at Haywood.
 The prisoner turned his glance for moment at Haywood and then said:
 -'l am charged with the murder of Frank Steunenberg and am awaiting trial. l was born in North Umberland county, Canada, in 1S66
 Harry Orchard is not my true name. have gone by that name for about eleven years. My true name is Alfred Horsley. 1 came to the United States in 1S96 first to Spokane, where l remained week. went to Wallace, Idaho, in March or April 1896. l first worked for Market Brothers, driving a milk wagon, and re- nlained there until about Christmas 1896. then went to wood and coal yard in Burke, Idaho, and was engaged in that business until the spring of 1899. 1 sold all my interests in the wood yard and went to work in the mines in March, 1899.

 Orchard said he joined the Burke, Idaho local of the Western Federation of Miners. This was in the Occur D Alenes
 Deputies By Orchard.
 While Orchard testified Deputy Beamer and his assistants stood at the side of him and about three feet in the rear of the witness chair. When Orchard first came in there was stir in the court room and seeVral persons started to rise in their places Half dozen bailffs chorused in unison a loud command to be seated. ' "State what unusual occurrence there was at Burke the morning of April 20 1S99' commanded Hawley of the wit ness.
 we object to that" shouted Attorney Richardson for the defense.
 aWhat occurred in 1899 can have noth- ing to do with this defendant, who was not elected member of the executive board of the Western Federation of Miners until long after that. Counsel stated yesterday that the rank and file of the Federation knew nothing of the workings Of the inner circle
 Hawley said he intended to connect the s Occur DAlene troubles with the defend- ant.
