SHOWN TO
Be NECESSARY

Boise, Idaho, July 17-In the last
stages of the case against Haywood,
the prosecution put six witnesses on
the stand yesterday to rebut the eVi-
dence of the defense Three testified
to conditions in Occur d'Alene in 1899
and three to the situation in Colorado
during the strike period of 1904.
The important witnesses of the day
were called to contradict a showing
made by the defense that there was
no reason for calling out the militia
of Colorado other than a desire on
the part of the mine owners to drive
members of the western federation of
miners from the district. One wit
ness fatty contradicted evidence in
trOduced by the defense to show that
the explosion of the Vindicator mine
was due to an accident.
While the big trial was going on in
the district court an interesting off
shoot of the case was being heard be-
lore JUSTICE vi tlt IGdCc odN-
age. c. w. AIler, a depot agent,
charged with perjury, was brought be
fore the magistrate for a preliminary
hearing. The principal witness in the
perjury hearing was Orchard him
self. Orchard was closely cross-eX-
amined but no amount of questioning
brought out any material change in
his original story A motion to dis
miss will be argued today. Aller was
released on $4,000 bond.
Sheriff Ruten of San Miguel county
who was the last witness of the day
in the Haywood case, admitted that
union miners were deported and
driven by force from the county while
he was sheriff and that no attempt
was made to prevent or punish those
who attacked the union men. He said
the deportations were the work Of
leading citizens of Telluride.
